This study aimed to assess the spatial cognition strategies and roles taken by students in the process of solving spatial tasks. For the analysis, this study developed two spatial tests based on the mental rotation test, which were taken by 63 students in their final year in elementary schools. The results of this study showed that in terms of the method of approaching the tasks, students took the comprehensive approach and the partial approach. When solving the tasks, the students were shown to use the imagery thinking or analytic thinking method. In terms of perspective, the students rotated the object or change their perspectives. A comparison of the methods used by the students revealed that when approaching the tasks, the group of students who chose the partial approach had higher scores. In terms of solving the tasks the analytic thinking method, and in terms of perspective, changing perspectives were shown to be more effective. Such effective methods were used more frequently in discrimination tasks than in recognition tasks, and in more complicated items, than in less complicated items. In conclusion, the results of this study suggested that the partial, analytic approach and the change of perspectives are useful strategies in solving tasks which require high cognitive effort.

This study measured and analyzed musical sense objectively, and visualized it to express visual effects as if watching music with the eye. For the visualization of music, we examined the concept of synesthesia and the correlation between hearing and seeing, and reviewed theoretical grounds and a number of cases necessary in reproducing musical sense visually based on synesthetic expression. Furthermore, we studied the visual elements and associated colors of rhythm to prove that visual conception of music through various approaches enable a transitional approach to aesthetic exploration and interpretation. The conclusions drawn from this research are as follows. First, classic music selected for visualization had musical characteristics highly correlated with dress design. Second, basic formative elements suggested as materials of visualization in this study were suitable in their form for expressing the rhythmic sense of music and, because they started from the most basic form, they were effective in extracting design elements. Third, when the result of the questionnaire survey, which was focused on the visualization of the rhythmic sense of the five pieces of classic music, was analyzed from the aspect of sensibility ergonomics, design elements of each piece of music were obtained in an objective and scientific way. Fourth, it was confirmed that common concepts could be derived from intangible elements such as forms and sounds observed in the rhythmic sense of music obtained from the result of the questionnaire survey. Fifth, works were made based on the results of this study and, according to the result, musical images can express sense through dress design and obtain visual effects as if watching music with the eye. Dress desist through the visualization of music in this study was an attempt to suggest that the language of music can be expressed in dress design, a visual formative language, based on synesthetic expression. Through this attempt, we confirmed the infinity of music as motives of dress design and suggested a method of aesthetic expression demanded in contemporary society that is pursuing aesthetic values.

The growth characteristics of cool season turfgrass in the seaside landfill golf courses with the single-use of kentucky bluegrass and mixed-use with kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass in the coast line are as follows. Water infiltration rate was higher in the kentucky bluegrass single-use groups recorded as 95.6∼125.9cm/hr than in the roups mixed with kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass recorded as 180.3∼386.2cm/hr. The surface soil hardness and the soil penetration were ranged from 16.6 to 18.0mm and from 6.0 to 7.3kg/cm$^2$, respectively. The cultivar that showed the most excellent visual quality and visual color in the kentucky bluegrass single-use groups was Midnight(KB2), whose density around the root was relatively excellent, as well. North Star(KB3) known as highly resistant to salt was the secondarily excellent cultivar. Brilliant(KB1) had visual quality of about third grade, however, it seemed profitable to develop turfgrass ground by virtue of its high density. As of April 26, 2003, when 2 weeks had passed after seeding, the visual quality was better in the groups mixed with kentucky bluegrass and perennial rye grass than in the kentucky bluegrass single-use groups. The most excellent visual color was found in Midnight(KB2)+Brightstar SLT(PR2) among the groups mixed with kentucky bluegrass and perennial ryegrass. On August 4, 2003, a disease was found from one experimental group in Blackstone(KB4) and expanded into more than 50cm of diameter.

The purpose of this study was to figure out visual character and preference of roadscape for the main entrance road in Chongju. We took 9.6km which was from the Chongju interchange of Kyungbu expressway to Sangdang park and was thought to have a peculiar characteristics. This main entrance road was seperated into 4 parts according to arranging patterns of roadside trees and buildings. To investigate the visual characters, the sementic differential scale experiment was used. The visual characters, the sementic differential scale experiment was used. The visual preference was examined by analyzing visual volume of 4 factors. The results of the study based on these analyses were as below : 1. Factors that compose the visual characters of roadscape were classified by the emotional factor, the individual factor and the physical factor. These 3 factors showed a64.14% total variance. Among 3 factors the emotional factor which represented psychological reaction was appreciated to be the highest and the physical factor was assessed to be the lowest. 2. 24 items in total 14 adjectives showed the following ranking of mean values in sementic differential experiment : Road I -->RoadIII-->RoadII-->RoadIV. The mean values between Road I and RoadIV showed a significant difference, which can be explained to be a contrast between the natural factor and the artificial factor. 3. The mean value of the visual preference was the highest at Road I and the lowest at Road IV. While Road II and Road III showed 3.51 and 4.71, respectively. 4. The effect of 4 factors on visual preference was analyzed by regression as follows : Visual preference =1.2983+0.0627 + 0.0230+0.0203, R-Square=0.5

This thesis intends to grasp the degree of utilization of visual images by understanding the relational properties between picture and letter and considering the children as users, through the analysis of currently published books of English vocabulary for children. Accordingly, the types of picture used in the books of English vocabulary for children, the degree of utilization of picture, combination types of picture and letter, and semantic consistency of picture and letter are reviewed. As a result of analysis, the degree of utilization of picture is high in general, in order of illustration, cartoon, and the mix of illustration and cartoon. In the combination form of picture and letter, the degree of utilization appears in order of picture plus vocabulary, letters without illustration, and pictorial symbol. In particular, the higher semantic consistency of picture and letter, it is effective in learning, however, semantic consistency is low, generally. Pictorial symbol type shows the frequency of the highest combination type in the five groups of higher semantic consistency. In conclusion, the presented types of picture and letter, shown in the currently published books of English vocabulary for children, are similar types by the publishing companies, thus, effective design research should be required based on diverse levels of children.

This paper provides an analysis of a survey on high achieving students' under-standing of continuity of function. The purposes of the survey in this paper were to identify high achieving students' concept images of continuity of function in the way of Tall & Vinner(1981). The students' individual written answers were collected and task-based, semi-structured individual interviews with 5 students were videotaped. Students were asked to explain their under-standing or reasoning about continuity of function. Five types of the concept images were identified in the analysis. Obvious discrepancy of results between this study and Tall & Vinner(1981)'s were pointed out. It is very likely that the differences in results drawn in both studies are results of the different orientations of the textbooks in terms of their degree of emphasis on the concept definition of continuity of function.

It has been four years after outsouring to private outsourced institute about calculating the costs on defense industry was commenced. Although the objectivity and reliablity has been improved somewhat, there were also a negative view of spending more time and money such as a costing official re-calculates the costs on the results by out-sourced institute. Therefore I want to study on countermeasure about the risks according to the importance by analysing a priority with deriving susceptible risk factors from the outsourced institute's conduct of calculating the costs in defense industry through this study. The purpose of this study contributes to the reduction of defense budget, a guarantee of the reasonable profit for defense suppliers and the improvement the effective strength of an army with a smooth supply procurement by managing the risks in advance about the conduct regarding to the outsourcing for calculating costs on defense materials in the future.

에너지요금의 인상이 잇따르고 있는 가운데‘이란발 쇼크’로 국제유가가 최근 가파른 상승세다. 하루 석유생산량이 390만 배럴로 석유수출국기구(OPEC) 중 사우디아라비아에 이어 두 번째로 큰 산유국 이란. 이 나라의 핵 개발을 둘러싼 국제적인 갈등이 원유공급 감소로 이어질 것이란 우려 때문이다. 미국을 비롯한 EU, 중국, 러시아가 이란 핵의 안보리 회부에 합의한데 따른 시장급변 상황에서 초래됐다. 여기에다 OPEC 회원국들이 지난달 31일 오스트리아 빈에서 열린 정례회의에서 하루 2800만 배럴인 현행 산유량 수준을 고수하기로 합의한 데 따른 파급도 있다. 중동지역의 지정학적인 위기로 인한 수급불안 우려가 해소되지 않고 있는데다 특히 OPEC의 증산 여력이 소진된 상태라는 관측 때문에 유가불안이 고조되고 있는 것이다. 2월초 현재 3월 인도분 서부 텍사스산 원유인 WTI는 배럴당 70달러에 육박하고 있다. 영국 런던 원유시장의 북해산 브렌트유 역시 덩달아 오름세이다. 우리나라에서 주로 수입하고 있는 중동산 두바이유 역시 마찬가지이다. 브렌트나 두바이유도 배럴당 같은 60달러 선이다. 유가 강세는 지난해 가을 허리케인 카트리나의 미국 남동부 강타로 대다수 석유시설이 파괴돼 수급난이 초래돼 WTI 기준 배럴당 한때 80달러에 육박한 이래 하락세를 보이다 이번에 다시 가파른 오름세로 돌아선 것이다.전문가들은 이 같은 유가의 가파른 돌변상황을 심각하게 받아들이고 있다. 1980년 5월 WTI 기준 최고치인 94달러까지 치솟아 오일쇼크를 유발한 국제유가. 이 즈음을 정점으로 내림세로 돌아서 걸프전90~91)으로 반짝 배럴당 50달러에 머문 적이 있다. 이를 제외하곤 1986년부터 2004년까진 10~30달러 선에서 비교적 안정세를 보이다 이후 미국의 이라크 침공을 기점으로 급상승세를 타고 왔다. 지난해 최고 80달러에까지 육박한 국제유가는 하향안정세에서 배럴당 60달러 선에서 등락을 거듭하고 있다. 이 수준도 턱없이 높은 것이다. 이 같은 고유가의 파고가 최근 들어 더욱 심상치 않다는 게 전문가들의 공통된 시각이다. 이번에‘이란발 오일쇼크’가 급습하는 것이 아닌가 하는 우려감마저 갖고 있다. 세계경제 회복세에 발목을 잡을 수도 있다고 보고 있다.본지는 이 같은 고유가의 파고를 넘는 첩경으로 저소비·고효율 기기를 앞으로는 시리즈로 소개한다.

In 1995, When people read a poem, the image that a poet intends to convey to readers shows in various colors according to the status of their emotion. Poetry is a bridge as well as a text, which connects this world and the poet's world. In such relationship, the communication through Types occurs. The realm of application of modern typography is widening due to the development of the Internet and mass media, and the ways of expression of which are changing with the help of lots of softwares. So, the modern typography is re-born as an organic language which is alive, breathing. Therefore, Types has the structural character similar to that of Typography, which is a language of image, creating today's movement, time, and space. The already existing poetry contains meanings but has a descriptive structures. On contrary, compared with the former, the type appeared in Hangul Concrete Poetry., itself is a poem in another realm due to the formality native to Hangul, and which appears in non-linear structure. So, in this thesis, I will analyze the formality and non-linear structure of Hangul Typography in order to widen the realm of research on typography, which is a very meaningful trial to visualize the literature.
