The 2015 revised information curriculum emphasizes the ability to solve problems in real life based on the basic concepts, principles and techniques of computer science. How the contents of textbooks are designed is an important issue in terms of achievement of educational goals and whether contents can be easily and clearly communicated. The purpose of this study is to analyze the concept presentation method presented in middle school informatics textbooks by three types of text- centered type, picture-centered type, and case-centered type- to analyze differences in understanding according to individual variables (sex, subject preference). Analysis results found the figure-centered type showed the highest degree of comprehension among students, and the preference of contents design type and the difference of understanding according to sex did not show significant differences. According to the preferred subjects, understanding of the content design types were found to be significantly different according to preferred subjects.

Recently, the installation of renewable energy including PV systems in distribution systems has increased energetically to cope with climate change and energy shortages according to the government's policy of renewable energy 3020. On the other hand, the electrical performance and lifespan of PV modules installed outdoors can be decreased considerably due to a range of deterioration phenomena depending on the ambient environmental factors. To overcome these problems, replacement of degraded PV modules with new ones is increased before the lifespan guaranteed by the makers of PV modules. Therefore, this paper proposes a disposal diagnosis algorithm to evaluate the time interval of the optimal replacement for PV modules according to performance degradation rate of PV modules. In addition, this study modeled an economic evaluation, which is composed of the cost and benefit of PV systems. From the simulation results based on the proposed modeling and algorithm to consider the performance degradation rate specifically, the replacement approach was found to have the best B/C ratio in 10th year with a 3[%] degradation rate and the disposal diagnosis algorithm of PV modules are useful and practical tools for economic evaluations of the replacement of PV modules.

This research purports to find out the characteristics of Korean students cognitive attributes and compare it with that of high-achieving countries who took TIMSS 2011 based on the Cognitive Diagnostic Theory. Based on TIMSS 2011 Science framework, nine cognitive attributes were extracted and the researcher analyzed that 216 of the TIMSS 2011 science items require these attributes. This analysis was conducted to come up with a Q-matrix. After producing the Q-matrix, multi-level IRT was used to figure out each countries' characteristics for each of the cognitive attribute. According to the study results, four attributes, such as 'Use Models,' 'Interpret Information,' 'Draw Conclusions,' and 'Evaluate and justify' were easier attributes for Korean middle school students. However, the other five attributes such as 'Recall/Recognize', 'Explain', 'Classify', 'Integrate', 'Hypothesize and Design' were considered as harder attributes compared to other countries. Korean students also considered 'Interpret Information' as the easiest attributes, and 'Explain' as the hardest attributes of all. For Korean students, those attributes considered to be easy were the easiest and hard attributes as the hardest compared to other countries, showing very extreme cases. Therefore, to give students more meaningful learning experience, it is better to use all the attributes altogether rather than use specific attributes while constructing Science curriculum or textbooks.

This study analyzes changes in the efficiency of the Department of Early Childhood Education in Korea to examine the effectiveness of the National Evaluation for Teacher Education Institution. We provide policy implications from exploring factors influencing efficiency and comparing characteristics of efficient and inefficient departments. With 149 Department of Early Childhood Education in Korea, DEA was conducted to estimate the relative efficiency, and the Tobit model was applied to explore factors affecting efficiency. The results confirm that the Department of Early Childhood in Korea is run efficiently, though there was no change in scale efficiency and relative efficiency after the two phases of the National Evaluation for Teacher Education Institution. The results show the number of books per student was significantly lower despite a significantly higher employment rate. Efficiency of college departments, department greater than 60 (per cohort), and department in metropolitan city (except Seoul area) is confirmed greater. These results provide policy implications on developing evaluation measure and processes to improve education quality and efficiency.

기존의 웹기반 가상실험 시스템은 단방향적 학습내용 제시 및 학습자의 반응이라는 구조를 가지고 있으며 실제 과학실험에서 범하기 쉬운 오류들을 학습자가 스스로 진단하고 수정할 수 있는 과정을 간과하고 있다. 또한 현재의 가상실험 사이트는 학습자의 입장에서 다양하게 사고하고 변인을 조작하며 피드백을 통한 오류를 분석, 분류 및 수정 할 수 있는 기회를 제공하지 않는 경우가 대부분이다. 이에 본 논문은 가상 실험에서 학습자들이 겪게 되는 오류발생 문제를 진단하고 분석하여 피드백과정을 거쳐 오류를 수정하고 보완하여 가상공간에서 교사와 학습자, 학습자와 학습자간의 상호작용을 통한 가상실험이 원활하게 이루어지게 하는데 목적이 있다. 본 논문에서는 웹 기반 가상실험 학습의 장점 및 그와 연관된 오류분석 및 피드백의 의미를 7차 교육과정과 관련되어 기술하였으며, 시스템을 인터페이스 프로세스, 오류체크 프로세스, 오류분석 프로세스, 오류기록 프로세스, 오류제어 프로세스, 피드백 프로세스로 구성하였다. 또한 현 교육과정 중 초등학교 4학년 과학과의 한 단원을 선택하여 시스템을 적용하였다. 먼저 국내 및 국외에서 웹기반 학습과 관련된 가상실험 사이트들이 다수 개발되고 있으나 단순한 학습내용 제시와 실험결과 위주의 평가를 중시한다는 단점이 있다. 본 시스템의 학습자는 이와는 달리 실험결과 뿐만 아니라 실험과정의 오류를 확인하고 피드백을 받아 스스로 오류를 분석, 수정하게 된다.

Somatization is regarded as a process rather than a diagnostic entity. It should be emphasized to identify psychopathology rather than to make a choice regarding diagnosis in assessing somatizing patients. Psychiatrists should be aware of the psychosocial cues underlying the patients' physical symptoms. Special skills and strategies are required by nonpsychiatric physicians to facilitate the patients' acceptance of psychiatric treatment. The goal of treatment for somatization is management but not cure. The approach should be flexible, depending on the patients' responses and need. The difficulty in diagnosing and treating somatization is likely to be related to abnormal illness behavior such as the patients' denial of their psychosocial problems and resistance to psychiatric approach. In conclusion, biopsychosocial approach is needed to treat these patients effectively. Psychiatrists should also teach other physicians the interview skill that they could identify these patients as early as possible and facilitate their acceptance of psychiatric treatment.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest a scientific evaluation criteria for integration of person with disabilities by developing and measuring the index and indicator of disability integration. Disability integration index will be expressed in a simple number to represent the current situation which will summarize the level of integration of persons with disabilities from the perspective of outcome. Disability integration index is composed of four indicators-social attitude toward person disability, physical environment, participation in society expressed by employment and education, and social institution. Observation research was conducted to measure first two indicators of social attitude and physical environment while existing statistics and data were analyzed for other two of participation in society and social institution. The result of this study showed that disability integration index of Korea was 0.4832. Therefore this paper comes to conclude that the level of integration in Korea approaches to 48 percent which is half of ideal integration. However, this study has its limitations in selection of indicators and index formula which in turn must be followed by next studies.

Objectives : This study was aimed to investigate stress and coping strategy in the families of schizophrenic patient, and changes of knowledge, stress and coping strategy after brief program of family education compared with control group Methods : The education group consisted of twenty four people who were families with schizophrenic patients and attended the brief program of family education. The control group consisted of twenty two people with schizophrenic inpatients. Self-report questionnaires such as Family Coping Questionnaire(FCQ), Patient Rejection Scale(PRS), Worry Questionnaire, Knowledge Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI) were administered to the education group and the control group, twice at the pre-test and post-test. Results : 1) In the education group, scores of worry questionnaire, BDI and STAI-S at the post-test were significantly lower than those at the pre-test. Social interests score of FCQ and knowledge questionnaire score at the post-test were significantly higher than those at the pre-test. In FCQ factors, social interests associated with avoidance strategy score at the post-test was significantly higher than that at the pre-test. However, in the control group, there was no significant difference in all questionnaires. 2) In the education group, significant positive correlation existed between calculated differences of worry questionnaire and STAI-S, and between worry questionnaire and STAI-T, whereas significant negative correlation existed between positive communication of FCQ and PRS, and between knowledge questionnaire and STAI-S. In the control group, significant negative correlation existed between information of FCQ and PRS, and between positive communication of FCQ and PRS. 3) In the education group, significant positive correlation existed between calculated differences of worry questionnaire and age of patient, whereas significant negative correlation existed between knowledge questionnaire and duration of illness. However, in the control group, there was no significant correlation. Conclusion : The brief program of family education was effective in increasing knowledge about schizophrenia, decreasing worry and anxiety about the patients in families with schizophrenic patient. In the education group as knowledge about schizophrenia increased, anxiety about schizophrenic patient decreased, but there was no significant correlation in the control group. As relative's rejection feeling about schizophrenic patient decreased, positive communication strategy increased in both groups. However, the control group was more affected by rejection feeling than the education group.
