Abstract

e-PBL based on constructivism adopted PBL(Problem Based Learning) and WBI(Web Based Learning), and it becomes the advanced model of instruction to be achieved PBL on-line. In this thesis, I applied e-PBL to 'the changing weather' part in the high school earth science I, compared to the lecture centered instruction, and analyzed how it affected on. On the basis of these, this study predicts the applicability on the cooperative learning and self-directed learning in the high school and suggests the improving of the teaching-learning with the results. The following shows the conclusion with as the central result of research. Firstly, the instruction applied e-PBL proved more effective academic achievement than the lecture centered instruction. Secondly, the instruction applied e-PBL proved more effective on the improving self-directed learning ability. Thirdly, the instruction applied e-PBL proved more effective self-efficacy than the lecture centered instruction.
