The effects of education utilizing history of science on science achievement and attitudes of the ninth grade students were investigated according to their achievement level, along with the development of teaching and ;earning materials. A total of 144 ninth grade students were divided into the experiment and control group. Instructing students using history of science was performed in the experiment group, while conventional instruction was used in the control group. The scores of both pre-test and post-test were estimated by ANCOVA. Instructions applying history of science were more effective in increasing the students' science achievement and attitude than conventional instructions. In particular, the former enhanced the achievements of the upper-level students, more than it did for the middle and lower-level students. In addition, using history of science showed a better effect on higher and middle-level students, in improving their attitudes toward science, than it did for lower-level students. This study suggests that the instruction utilizing history of science should be designed based on the students' achievement level, and that various teaching and learning materials related to the instruction were helpful.

This study investigated the effect of gender grouping on cooperative learning on the basis of student achievement and science-teaming attitude. Homogeneous and heterogeneous gender groupings were used in the treatment groups for the learning strategies of earth science. Traditional instruction was performed for the control group. Three classes at a middle school were assigned to the groups. Before the treatment instruction, a questionnaire about science-learning attitude was administered to 144 students, and their scores were utilized as covariate. Then, the same questionnaire was given with a test of science achievement designed in this study. The changes in both achievement and attitude among the three groups were analyzed statistically. Significant differences were not shown in science achievement or in the difference of gender with respect to perceptions about science. There were significant changes between the homogeneous and heterogeneous gender grouping in their attitudes toward science instruction. Here the cooperative learning group, regardless of the gender grouping, tends to exhibit more positive perceptions towards their learning environment than the control group, particularly in female students.

The purpose of this study were to analyze effects of VR-based intervention on daily living skills and class attitudes of students with intellectual disabilities. To do this, 30 students with intellectual disabilities in the second and third grades of middle school were selected for this study and placed three group. A group took part in a class using only VR program, B group participated in experience activities program, and C group got in the intervention program that combine VR program and experience activities on daily living skills. Intervention programs were conducted 4 times in a week for 4 weeks from the fourth week of July to the third week of August and a class time of each class was 50 minutes. Evaluations were carried out in pre- and post-test. The Evaluation data were analyzed by One-way ANOVA and scheffe'. In Result of study, daily living skills of C group was improved more higher than other groups and class attitudes of C group was improved more higher than group B. These results showed that the intervention combining VR program and direct experience activities was more effective than the other methods.

In this study, the multimedia CAl program for chemical equilibrium in high school grade 3 was developed and the effect of CAl on achievement and attitude toward chemistry instruction and computer was investigated. Before instruction, the test of attitudes toward chemistry instruction and computer were administered, and the grade in the mid-term examination was obtained. These scores were used as covariates. Mid-term science score was used as blocking variable. For chemical equilibrium instruction, traditional and computer assisted instruction were used. After instruction, the achievement test and the test of attitudes toward science instruction and computer were administered. The results indicated that students in the treatment group achieved significantly better than those in the control group, but did not show improvement of attitude to chemistry instruction and computer compared to those in the control group. No significant interaction between the treatment and the level of students' prior achievement was found. Female achieved significantly better under CAl than under traditional instruction. In two subtests(understanding and application), treatment group achieved better in the subtest of application than control group. CAl had an effect on chemical equilibrium state (about reversibility) significantly. While female of the treatment group did not show more positive attitude toward both chemistry instruction and computer significantly than that of the control group, male showed more positive attitude significantly. Educational implications are discussed.

This study aims to verify the effect of the situated learning-based instruction on mathematics learning of sixth-grade elementary school students. For this purpose, this study examined the differences in mathematical learning achievement and mathematical attitude between a group participating in the situated learning-based class and a group participating in the normal instructor-led mathematics class. Moreover, this study verified the educational effect of the situated learning-based class by analyzing teacher's role in the class and students' way of participating in the class. The study results are as follows. First, the situated learning-based class positively influenced students' mathematics achievement and mathematical attitude. Second, teacher performed a role as a learning guide and facilitator. Third, other became an object to give help to or to learn from in the situated learning-based class. These situations had a positive influence on the organization of knowledge through active efforts of students for communication and problem solving which belongs to a cooperative socialization process happening in the class.

The effect of Web-based project learning on the science achievement and attitude of middle school students was investigated. Four classes of 9th grade at a coed middle school were divided into control and experimental groups. Web-based project instruction in which students utilized the Web to interactively carry out their projects was put into practice with the experimental group, while traditional instruction was employed with the control group. Pre- and post-test achievement and attitude scores were estimated through an analysis of covariance. Web-based project instruction was seen to be more effective in enhancing students’ science achievement and attitude than traditional instruction. In particular, the former instruction was most useful for improving higher level students’ achievement and attitude among the higher, middle, and lower level students of both groups, based on their academic achievement. The effect of Web-based project may result in eradicating negative cognition about gender difference.
