본 연구는 삶의 질의 문제가 지리교육 분야에서는 어떻게 제기될수 있는지를 살펴보고, 지리교육 활동에 참여하고 있는 사람들의 삶의 질을 높이기 위해서 수행되어야 할 과제는 무엇인지를 밝힌 것이다. 지리교육분야에서 제기되는 삶의 문제란 배우고 가르치는 활동의 질과 밀접히 관련되는데, 지리를 가르치고 배우는 과정에서 투입되고 활용되는 다양한 소프트웨어와 하드웨어의 질적 개선이 없이는 지리교육 분야에서의 삶의 질을 고양되기 힘들다는 것이다. 교재와 학습 프로그램과 수업운영방법에 있어서의 질적 발전을 도모하기 위해서는 지리교육의 목표 명료화, 지리교육과정의 계열적 조직방안 개발, 지리교육의 개념과 내용체계 표준화, 자료에 근거한 사고력 기르기 학습프로그램의 개발 등의 연구가 앞으로 체계적으로 이루어져야 할 필요성이 있음을 논의하였다.

As standardized test and current perfomance assessment have some problems in the aspects of contextuality, authenticity and intelligence faimess, the aim of this study is to propose an 'intelligence-fair and authentic assessment(IFAA)as an appropriate altemative and to make sure of the probability of its application. In geographical education, an idealistic assessment can be realized when the tasks bear authenticity, multiple intelligence of students are accepted and the objective are confirming with general purpose. IFAA model consists of 5 elements. They are the selecting for strategic ideas, the developing a real-life task, the constructive instructing with teacher, the offering opportunity of multiple representation and the allotting of marks for each items, IFAA model proposed in this study is worth considering in educational validity and realistic adaptability.

The present education situations are rapidly changing to adapt to 'the Knowledge & Information-based Society'. Especially, the implementation of 'the 7th National Curriculum' put strong emphasis on the learner-centered education that refers to the ability grouping. Therefore, it is necessary that the change from a traditional teaching method to a learner-centered one in geography education will take place. This study will present a design of geography ability grouping through the Task-Solving Learning. This ability grouping method is suitable for the large class. And this study also presents a strategy by applying WBI, which make use of the advantage of computer and constructivism. This WBI model can be applied properly to many teaching-learning methods that includes Self-Directed Learning, Collaborate Learning, Ability Grouping, and Applying ICT Instruction. Actually they are demanded in the current education. A geography-classroom will have an accessible internet program as a precondition for this instruction.

세기의 전환기에서 우리 라라 지리학의 역할과 위상은 새로운 국면을 맞이하고 있다. 지식정보사회의 도래와 함께 공간에 대한 개념과 인식이 바뀌고 있으며, 교육환경도 빠르게 변화하고 있다. 대학을 포함한 교육현장에서 교육소비자들의 다양한 욕구에 능동적으로 대처하기 위한 발전적 대안이 모색되고 있는 현실을 감안할 때 지리학의 학문적, 실용적 경쟁력 확보와 대중화를 위한 노력이 절실히 요구되고 있다. (중략)

This paper is to elucidate geographical implications of fieldwork activities of everyday-life space of students of an elementary teachers college. The students depended mainly on questionaries and interview for gathering data during fieldwork. They had difficulty in processing data to visual-spatial representation, i.e. map, tables, and diagrams. But they were favourable for appling their fieldwork experiences to teaching the elementary geography. This is viewed as an unique behavioral orientation or desirable attitudes of students of an elementary teachers college. On the basis of the self-assessment and peer-assessment of fieldwork activities, it could be ascertained that the students came to understand the geographical value and significance of fieldwork activities. The fieldwork activities made them to heighten their interest of everyday-life space, and so to internalize positive their senses of place, to enforce their identities of place. According to the results of this research, we need to develop a systemic contents for fieldwork activities in geography curriculum of elementary teachers colleges.

This study is to review research issues on North Korea and unified territory in terms of topics and approach method in Korean human geography. The conclusion of this paper is as follows. Before 1980's, topics on political geography, such as geopolitics or unified land, were the main stream in research. In 1990's with the end of the cold war and the access to material which was published in North Korea, scope of research was widened especially in geography education. After 2000's with the expansion of cooperation between South and North Korea, the scope of topics were more expanded in all field of human geography, for example, critical geopolitic in political geography, Gaeseong Industrial Complex, Najin-Seonbong region in economic geography, place names, Geumgangsan, North Korean defectors in social and cultural geography. The approach method of toward North Korea is fall into two categories. One is regional geography and the other is the unified land. In the latter approach, topics on the regional structure after reunification or on the life adaptation of defectors in South Korea etc. were studied. After unification of land, new Korean Studiea will be established and human geographers should make ready for this. Before unification, research on the land in north Korea should be proceeded in terms of historical geography.

The paper is to examine the university as an object for geographical research and to review its related studies. Although the higher education system in Korea has much expanded its capacities since the 1980s, there are few studies that carry out geographical investigations on the themes including locational changes of universities, regional impacts of the university, and interactions between universities and regional development. Therefore, focusing on the university as an innovative element for the regional development in a coming knowledge-based society, this paper first tries to examine and conceptualize new roles and changing functions of the university in facilitating regional economic and social development. It then reviews various studies of educational geography and research shifts on the role of the university in the context of the western developed countries. Finally this study suggests a series of research themes that we should investigate in the future.

Since the 1980's, metacognition has been one of the core subjects in the studies on teaching-learning. There have been significant considerations about the metacognition in the reaching-learning become increasingly important in relation with learner's thinking. Though, metacognition has now become important concept used in learning process, there have not been sufficient researches in geographic education. The purpose of this parer is to define metacognition concept in geograpbic education. First, the concept of metacognition in geograpbic education, alike in the other education, can be classified as metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive function. Metacognitive knowledge can be categorized as knowledge about self, task, and strategy. Metacognitive function can be categorized as function about monitoring, evaluating and controling. Next, based on geographical metacognition concept, this paper is researched the characteristics of geographical metacognition in the students' reading maps inquiry activity.

Constructed-response items are useful to estimate a higher-order thinking abilities such as sense of place, graphicacy, and geographical imaginations which are aimed by geography education. This study aims to identify the conception of the constructed-response items, to classify those feasible items in geography education, and to propose some comments and suggestions for development and application in Korea. The author tries to classify the constructed-response items by analyzing the NAEP items in the formal aspect and the aspect of cognitive dimension respectively. In the formal aspect, they are classified as 'question-standalone' type and 'material-presenting' type. In the aspect of cognitive dimension, they are classified into three types as 'knowledge-requirement', 'understanding-requirement', and 'applying-requirement'. Some comments and suggestions are as follows. First, it is necessary to develope the constructed-response items that coherent to both content and cognitive dimensions. Second, it is required for students who take an examination to use a great variety of graphics, photos, thematic maps related to geography. Third, we need to inquire the rubric, grade, process to scoring because they are vital to success of the constructed-response items.
