A new paradigm of English learning: Comparative analysis of English learners' behaviors among face-to-face, e-learning, and smart English learning environment

For many years, the use of various information technologies is becoming more common in English education. In fact, many aspects of English education have been studied in order to better understand learner's attitudes and behaviors. However, while many of prior studies have focused on the impact of particular technology, the psychological aspects that English learners experience have not been studied extensively. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate group difference among face-to-face, electronic learning(e-learning), and smart learning(s-learning) in terms of characteristics of their learning environments, such as Interactivity, Enjoyment, Usefulness, Easiness, Learning Motivation, Satisfaction, Learning Consistence, and Learning Performance. The study used a lab experiment and survey method to collect data. Then, the data were analyzed using SPSS19.0 for all contextual variables in order to determine if any difference existed in both within and between-groups. Results show that there is no difference existed within group for all contextual variables. However, English learners have different psychological experiment for three variables, Enjoyment, Usefulness, and Learning Motivation, between groups.
