Purpose
Conducting Basic Programming Lectures
Department of Communications Engineering, Korea University
Established in 2022 by Samsung Electronics and Korea University, the Department of Communications Engineering is dedicated to fostering talent in the field of information and communication technology, a pivotal force in future societal advancement. The department emphasizes a comprehensive education that spans software, hardware, theoretical knowledge, and practical applications in information and communication technology.
In its formative years, the Department of Communications Engineering at Korea University faced the challenge of providing guidance and class management due to a shortage of professors and assistants relative to established departments. To ensure efficient class management without compromising educational quality, the department sought innovative approaches that aligned with the available resources.
In search of innovative solutions, Korea University’s Department of Communications Engineering chose to introduce basic programming lectures for freshmen using Elice. This initiative enabled the department to access customized curriculum and educational content, alongside a comprehensive platform for managing classes and assignments.
Elice LXP, a platform that relieves the burden on professors
Korea University's decision to adopt Elice was primarily influenced by its stable platform, significantly reducing the workload for instructors. The platform's dashboard allows for an easy overview of students' learning progress, code execution, and submissions, facilitating a convenient monitoring of educational progress.
In addition, LXP’s own function directly reduced the number of assistants. Using the Open Booking feature, we were able to set up all the lectures in advance and make them available to students for each week instead of having to upload them every week. With the automatic scoring system, we were able to finish the mid-term to final exam scoring as well as each lesson practice much faster than when we did it manually.
The automatic scoring system enabled the swift completion of scoring for mid-term and final exams and routine lesson practices, markedly faster than manual methods. Moreover, the Elice Help Center significantly conserved faculty and assistant resources by handling numerous tasks, from student Q&A sessions to real-time support. Here, specialized tutors and the AI chatbot, “Helpy”, offered instant responses to queries, overcoming the typical delays in feedback associated with online lectures. Additionally, the Elice Library’s functionality for on-the-fly updates ensured educational materials could be promptly revised, enhancing the learning experience.
Lecture contents that don’t miss out on the quality
It was also important to reduce the instructor’s resources as much as possible while not missing the quality of education. In this part, Elice’s content was most suitable for Korea University’s Department of Communications Engineering and basic education.
The curriculum is intentionally designed to optimize online learning efficiency, incorporating segmented theoretical videos to keep students engaged and interspersing quizzes and practical exercises for immediate application of theory. Additionally, the Elice platform’s coding practice environment closely mirrors real-world conditions, offering the convenience of coding without the need for separate software installations.
Elice’s education model stands out for its hands-on approach, contrasting with K-Mooc’s more traditional online lecture format used for university credits. This practical emphasis is especially beneficial in programming education, where active coding and application are crucial. While K-Mooc also allows for coding practice during lectures, it poses challenges, such as the need for learners to configure their own practice environments, which Elice effectively eliminates.
A smooth one-semester lecture with Elice LXP
An assistant from Korea University’s Department of Communications Engineering, after conducting classes for a semester, praised the convenience of Elice LXP’s management features, highlighting the ability to monitor over 30 students’ progress, code execution, and submissions at a glance via the dashboard. This comprehensive overview simplified course management by facilitating prompt responses to student inquiries based on immediate access to test scores and answers. Despite the inherent challenges of online lectures, such as verifying student engagement, the assistant found that LXP’s diverse management tools enabled smooth class operations throughout the semester.
Elice LXP, in conjunction with its educational content, effectively addressed the challenges faced by Korea University’s Department of Communications Engineering.
