농림기상학은 농업생명과학을 구성하는 세부 학문 분야를 포괄할 수 있고, 생태-사회시스템을 구성하는 다양한 하부 시스템 간의 관계를 구명할 수 있는 학제간(interdisciplinary) 더 나아가서 모든 이해관계자가 함께 참여하는 초학문(transdisciplinary) 과학이다. 시대적 필요성에 따라 서울대에서는 2012년에 공식적인 대학원 교육 조직으로서 농림기상학전공 협동과정을 설치하였다. 지난 10년 동안 성과도 있었지만 향후 발전을 위해 개선해야 할 점도 있다. 이 글에서는 이 협동과정 설립 10주년을 맞이하여 내가 농림기상학에 대해 관심을 갖게 된 계기를 만들어준 세 분의 과학자를 소개하고, 협동과정 설립을 주도했던 사람으로서 초기의 생각과 상황을 정리하고, 향후 발전을 위한 기대를 공유하고자 한다.

By comparing the understandings of theology major with science major in a college, this study investigates how theology major students view the origin of universe and life and how they portray the view of sciences. In addition, this study examines how theology majors change their viewpoints through a series of lectures related to understanding of the modem sciences. Twenty six theology majors and nineteen science education majors participated in the survey investigation. For theology majors, questionnaire data revealed that 42% of theology majors support theistic evolution, while 42% responses with young and old Earth creation and none with evolutionism. On the other hand, most respondents in science education major espoused evolutionism and no one with extreme creationism. Most respondents with creationism shared the insights that science is an instrument for describing the creator's work, whereas most with evolutionisms perceived science as a logical and descriptive system of the natural world. After taking science courses, the theology majors' support of an extreme view like young Earth creationism has decreased by 4% (was 23%), while their support of the theistic evolution increased by a small percentage. This result lends support to the idea that science related courses helps theology major undergraduate students to understand the scientific evolutionism based on their theological backgrounds.

Mini-implant has been reported as an alternative method to conventional diameter implants in the treatment of mandibular anterior region with narrow ridge. However, one-piece type mini-implant showed biological and technical complications, such as peri-implantitis by residual cement and prosthetic detachment. Recently, one-piece type mini-implant with additional retentive structure has been introduced to increase the retention and stability of the mini-implant. The mini-implant is based on spreading the upper retentive structure with a spreader and connected it with the inner surface of the zirconia prosthesis. In two cases, we tried to reduce these complications through the mini-implant on the narrow mandibular anterior region, and it was possible to reduce the overall treatment period through a digital system. In this case report, restoration using the digital mini-implant system showed improvement of patient satisfaction on the aspect of function and esthetic in the narrow mandibular anterior region.

Appreciation of nature and an understanding of the biological sciences by the general public are key to the popularization of modern science. In particular, informal and accessible venues such as museum exhibits occupy a crucial role in science education, and they depend heavily on fields related to macrobiology, including Ecology, Animal Behavior, and Environmental Science. Unfortunately, lack of engaged experts and superficial descriptions of natural phenomena all too often prevent scientific knowledge from being shared effectively with the general public. Raw information itself and knowledge are not in a form or structure accessible to nonspecialists. In order to move successfully deliver substantive comprehension of the biological knowledge to the general public, it is necessary to categorize information from a content-conscious perspective and transform it into useful biological content. Therefore, the role of scientists is critically important in a series of processes that include theme selection, editing, and even graphical layout of contents. These processes require not only a scientific and logical way of thinking, but also an aptitude for artistic presentation and effective communication. The concept of Translation is presented as a theoretical and operational framework for the popularization of science.

The purpose of this study is to find the concept of life, the categories of living things and the systems of categorizing them contained in Buddhism, a sort of metaphysical philosophy. For this, monks who devotes themselves to Buddhism were interviewed, and the differences of the definition of life, the categorizing of living creatures and categorizing systems between biology and other subject teachers and students who are Buddhist and ones who are not were inquired. The result shows that in Buddhism, they use 'being' and 'sentience being' as the terms for creatures and they believe creatures are not individual ones but one collective existence connected with each other, which is very different from the biological definition of creatures. Buddhist include metaphysical beings in categories of living things rather than plants. Buddhist criteria for categorizing things which have life, that is living beings, are how they are born, whether they have a certain form and, lastly, whether they are conscious or not. Through this research results we could expect to identify the misconceptions about concept of life and the categories of living things.

'Calculus for Life Science' is one of the calculus courses for students majoring life science in Seoul National University. Contrary to the other calculus courses for students in natural sciences and engineerings, in 'Calculus for life Science' we have primarily chosen computer-based curriculum that is useful to life science and so we have tried to fulfill the requirements of the students majoring life science. Like this, we are of the opinion that there are diverse requirements in life science as well as other majors in basic mathematical education of the university. Upon this view, in this research, we consider the present conditions, the points at issue and study improvements of them. In section II and III, we introduce briefly the present 'Calculus for Life Science' focused on the curriculum. In section IV, according to the course evaluations and questionnaire, we make an analysis of the present condition and the points at issue of 'Calculus for Life Science'.

The purpose of this study was to analyze paper and pencil test items of life science I in high school to diagnose problems of the test items developed by teachers, and to provide some implication for better assessment. 690 selection-type items and 162 supply-type items in life science I were collected from 10 general high schools. In the analysis of test items, the ratio of the selection-type item and the supply-type item was 81:19 in the number of items based on item type, while the ratio was 74.4:25.6 in the distribution of marks, indicating that the distribution of marks compared to the number of items was higher in the supply-type items. In the analysis by the Bloom's revised taxonomy of educational objectives, the items of 'conceptual knowledge' in the knowledge and those of 'understanding' in the cognition process were shown most in both the selection-type item and the supply-type item. In the analysis by the science assessment frameworks of NAEA, the items of 'knowledge' were shown 9 times more than those of 'inquiry'. When compared to the level of difficulty presented in the two-way specification table and the percentage of correct answers in the selection-type item, the concurrence was 41.5%. When compared to the ratio of number of items based on the item type of the supply-type items, the short-answer items were 34.0%, the descriptive items were 61.1%, and the drawing items were 4.9%. The drawing items were mainly developed in the unit of 'Cells and Continuity of Life'. When the descriptive items were classified by the acceptance of response, all the items were 'response restricted' type, and the items of 'restricted in content range' type among them were highest. When the items were classified by presentation of data, the items of 'presentation of data' type were highest(65.4%), and when classified by type of question, the items of 'knowledge description' type were highest(80.4%). In conclusion, it is needed to develop items belonging to 'inquiry' area more in the school, and to increase the ratio of the descriptive items, presenting various types of items.

인문학은 인간에 대한 깊은 성찰과 세계에 대한 폭넓은 조망에서 잉태한다. 이런 인문학 교육은 인문대학만이 아니라 전반적인 의료교육 현장에 접목되어야 한다. 따라서 인문학 역시 현실을 도외시한 언어유희가 아니라 현실속의 사회 문화적 통로를 접근하는 방식으로 도입되어야 한다. 인문학적 성찰은 전문가만의 소유물이 아니다. 특히 의료인문학적 성찰은 죽은 몸이 아니라 살아 있는 몸을 다루는 임상행위의 전제이다. 이렇게 살아 있는 생명의 몸을 다루는 의학 부문에서 과학적 설명의 적용범위와 그 실현가능성은 아직 충족되고 있지 않다. 이는 과학탐구 대상으로서의 톰과 증상과 치료의 대상으로서의 구체적인 의학적 몸 사이의 간극이 있음을 무시할 수 없다는 점이다. 인문학적으로는 설명 장르의 몸에서 제외된 이해 장르의 몸이 다시 조명되어야 한다. 정확히 말하면 설명 장르와 이해 장르가 통합되어야 한다는 뜻이기도 하다. 이러한 인문학적 반성이란 추상적 이론으로 그쳐서는 안 되며, 의학과 의료 현실에 어떻게 실천적으로 적용가능한지를 질문하는 일이다. 이 논문에서는 그 적용사례로서 증거중심의학(EBM)과 문제기반학습(PBL)를 다루었다.
