Abstract

This study investigated adult learners’ perception and needs for smart learning. It analysed adult learners’ possession, use, and perspectives on smart devices and examined how they value smart learning competencies. Two questionnaires were conducted to 227 and 270 adult learners in Korea. Result 1 showed that over seventy percent of participants possessed smartphones, eighty nine percent used e-mails, and fifty seven percent used social network services daily. Result 2 showed that learners’ possession of smart competencies were lower than their evaluation of importance. In all smart competencies, learners confirmed the needs to develop smart competencies, which verified the needs for developing smart learning competencies. This study confirmed needs for smart learning, and explored the areas to prepare smart learning.
