This paper investigates the effects of small group collaborative transcription activities on the improvement of university students' English listening ability. Based on the results of pre-tests, a class of 42 students was subdivided into 11 small homogeneous groups of three to four students. Each group was provided with 7 different news items to be transcribed. Means were compared between pre-test and post-test scores, followed by comparison of transcription errors in content and function words. Finally, students' perception and attitudes about the use of small group transcription for improving listening skills were qualitatively analysed and compared with pre- and post test results. It was found that post test scores highly correlated with improvement of listening ability. It was also found that groups of high degree of collaboration showed improvement in listening ability while lack of collaboration contributed to loss of interests in listening. Students who see process more important were found to make more contribution to the group success than those who place more emphasis on the results.

Recently, the relay communication is focused for the power saving and coverage extension of ad-hoc networks. For the high date rate transmission, it is proposed to adapt OFDMA relays. In this paper, we assume the 2 hop cooperative OFDMA relays between the source and the destination. The performance of 3 different relaying methods are derived and compared. We noticed that the selective OFDMA relaying method has the best performance followed by opportunistic OFDMA relaying and repetition-based OFDMA relaying method under the same threshold mutual information rate.

With the recent development of IT technology, various digital media to which new information technology is applied are being developed. In classroom lessons, the learning environment centered on lectures has changed to a learning environment in which learners participate. In particular, Interactive WhiteBoard (IWB) are used as an effective digital medium for teacher-learners to collaborate for interaction. However, existing IWB are expensive to purchase and maintain, and provide various and complicated functions to operate the IWB, which imposes a heavy burden on users. In this paper, we develop a low-cost IWB that supports collaborative learning to facilitate interaction in the space where projectors are installed to improve the teaching-learning environment. In addition, it is implemented so that learning activities using the IWB are interlocked and stored in the learning management system.

The method of being composed of small groups has a strong influence on mathematics and cooperative learning and therefore, the group classification should be made in a way of considering not only a learner's cognitive factor but also a affective factor in order to maximize the effects. In this research, we regarded personality as the important standard of the group classification for cooperative learning and tried to find out the influence on the mathematical attitude and achievement in mathematics by means of conducting mathematics and cooperative learning according to the personality types. In order to resolve this problem, we performed the cooperative learning of small group subject to the students at year 6 in an elementary school by making up a similar personality type of group and a different personality type of group through MMTIC examination, and also tried to find out any significant difference in terms of mathematical attitude and achievement in mathematics between two groups. The results obtained in this research are as follows; First, organizing groups in accordance with personality types did not affect on mathematical attitude. Although there were some positive opinions towards mathematics and cooperative learning, the both similar personality type of group and different personality type of group showed no significant difference in terms of mathematical attitude between two groups. Second, organizing groups in accordance with personality types showed positive effects on the achievement in mathematics. The similar personality type of group showed the better achievement in mathematics than the different personality type of group.

Nowadays, Internet is used worldwide and network traffic is increasing dramatically. Much of Internet traffic is due to the web applications. And I propose a new cooperative web caching scheme, called DCOORD which tries to minimize the overall cost of Web caching. DCOORD reduces the communication cost by coordinating the objects which are cached at each cache server. In this paper, I compare the Performance of DCOORD with two well-known cooperative Web caching schemes, ICP and CARP, using trace driven simulation. In order to reflect the cost factor in the network communication, I used the CSR(Cost-Saving Ratio) as our performance metric, instead of the traditional hit ratio. The performance evaluations show that DCOORD is more cost effective than ICP and CARP.

The purpose of this thesis was to analyze communicational means of mathematical communication in perspective of languages and behaviors. Research questions were as follows; First, how are the characteristics of mathematical languages in communicating process of mathematical small group learning? Second, how are the characteristics of behaviors in communicating process of mathematical small group learning? The analyses of students' mathematical language were as follows; First, the ordinary language that students used was the demonstrative pronoun in general, mainly substituted for mathematical language. Second, students depended on verbal language rather than mathematical representation in case of mathematical communication. Third, quasi-mathematical language was mainly transformed in upper grade level than lower grade, and it was shown prominently in shape and measurement domain. Fourth, In mathematical communication, high level students used mathematical language more widely and initiatively than mid/low level students. Fifth, mathematical language use was very helpful and interactive regardless of the student's level. In addition, the analyses of students' behavior facts were as follows; First, students' behaviors for problem-solving were shown in the order of reading, understanding, planning, implementing, analyzing and verifying. While trials and errors, verifying is almost omitted. Second, in mathematical communication, while the flow of high/middle level students' behaviors was systematic and process-directed, that of low level students' behaviors was unconnected and product-directed.

This study investigated the effects of group processing in cooperative learning using task-oriented reward on students' science achievement, science learning motivation, and attitude toward science instruction. Eighth graders (N=58) selected from a middle school in Seoul, were randomly assigned to either the treatment or comparison group, and taught on the 'Separation of Mixture' over 8 class hours. The treatment group received cooperative learning using task-oriented reward containing group processing (GCL), while the comparison group received cooperative learning using task-oriented reward without group processing (CL). Significant interactions between the instruction and prior achievement level were found in the achievement and the attitude toward science instruction. High-level students in the GCL group performed better than those in the CL group, while low-level students in the CL group performed better than their counterparts.

본 논문에서는 경제학, 사회학, 수학 분야에서 수십년 전부터 연구해오던 죄수의 딜레마 게임의 협동진화에 대해 고찰해보고자 한다. 반복적 죄수의 딜레마 게임은 게임이론의 가장 기본적인 이론으로써, 사회적 상호작용, 경제활동, 국제관계 등 다양한 현상들을 모델링 하기 위한 하나의 방법이다. 그 중에 N명이 참가하는 반복적 죄수 딜레마 게임의 전략은 유전 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithms, GAs)을 통해 진화적으로 만들어 낼 수 있으며, 이 경우에 그 결과를 일반적인 내쉬 균형 이 아닌, 모든 개체들이 유전알고리즘을 통해 협동으로 수렴하도록 유도할 수 있다는 사실은 상당히 시사하는 바가 크다. 기존에 주로 연구되어오던 죄수의 딜레마 게임은 협동으로의 수렴과정에서 일반적으로 순위기반선택(Rank-based selection)과 1점 교배기법(1point crossover)을 사용한다. 그러나 순위기반선택은 모든 개체에 순위을 매겨야 하기 때문에, 개체수가 커질수록 성능이 저하되며, 1점 교배기법은 개체 값이 분산되어있을 경우, 최적해(Optimal solution)을 찾기 힘들다는 단점이 있어, 개체수가 많은 경우에 적용하기에는 비효율적이다. 본 논문에서는 토너먼트 선택기법(Tournament selection)과 자기 적응형 교배기법(Self-adaptive crossover)을 적용한 새로운 기법을 제안한다. 또한 기존 기법과 비교 실험을 통해 제안기법이 기존기법에 비해 평균 수렴시간과 수렴 횟수에서 뛰어난 성능을 보이고 있음을 확인하였다.

In this study, the effects of extraversion/introversion grouping and the differences between extroverts and introverts in cooperative learning strategy applied to general science class were investigated. Ninety-three 10th-graders were grouped into homogeneous and heterogeneous cooperative groups with respect to extraversion and introversion, and were taught about matter for 10 class periods. Prior to the instructions, three tests regarding the extraversion/introversion, logical thinking, and learning motivation were administered. After the instructions, their achievements, process skills, self-esteem, communication apprehension, and learning motivation were examined. Two-way ANCOVA results revealed that there were no main and interactive effects in the scores of the achievement and the process skills tests. However, significant interactive effect was found in the self-esteem. While the difference in the self-esteem of the introverts and the extroverts was small in the homogeneous group, the self-esteem of the extroverts was higher than that of the introverts in the heterogeneous group. The communication apprehension of the introverts was significantly lower than that of the extroverts. Students' perceptions to their group activities and group members were also studied.
