Paper Abstract:	The aim of this study is to develop a method of qualitative analysis for extracting features/characteristics from e-Learning contents, in consideration of the semantic relationship between figures & sentences. In order to extract the features and characteristics, we propose a method of contents analysis for “characteristics on frames” and “sequences of frames”. On the basis of this analysis, we propose a method for contents construction. Problem with content construction is related to the technology of Instructional Design. Furthermore, we use this methodology to compose effective and adaptive contents based on educational psychology and linguistics in consideration of individual differences. In comparison to previous research on the subject, our research is aimed to the synergy-effect in the meaningful relationship between figures & sentences; we take a qualitative analysis approach from the point of view of cognitive and linguistic semantics. Moreover, we take up originally the problem of the semantic understanding of “Frame” and “Chunked frame sequence” from the view of cognitive and psycho-linguistics. As a result of that, we extracted three patterns: “Progressive-pattern”, “Regressive-pattern”, and “Spiral-pattern” from the characteristics on analyzed frames. Also, we extracted two patterns for chunked frame sequences: “Liner/ branch/ binding”, and “Liner/ non-binding”.
