This study is to examine how common science, which was selected as a required subject in high schools with the reorganization of the 6th national science curriculum by the Ministry of Education, is taught in high schools these days. The results show that only one teacher is teaching common science in 3.2% of schools or the teachers divide and teach units according to their majors. In this situation, there are many problems because there are too many integrated contents in each unit and they are too short to solve the study subject during the unit time of 50 minutes. Another problem is that there is no special laboratory for common science. For the knowledge part of common science, lecture-learning is used as a method of teaching and for the inquiry part, inquiry-learning is used. Evaluation is conducted using subjective or objective paper-tests for the knowledge part, and reports are used for evaluation in the inquiry part. Therefore, this study shows that students' response to common science is below the general level and this subject missed the original intent introduced to raise students' interests about science.

The purpose of this study was to develop teaching materials using pyramid model of divergent thinking, inverse pyramid model of convergent thinking and evaluate the effects of its applications. The teaching materials was implemented to 110 students (The experimental group is 57, The control group is 53) in middle school for about 8 months (from May to October). Results indicated that the experimental group presented statistically meaningful improvement in creative thinking skills, especially in fluency, flexibility and originality. There was no interaction effect about creative thinking skills between the teaching strategy and cognitive level, achievement, gender of those students. Also the teaching materials contributed to improve critical thinking skills, especially in making hypothesis, control of variables transformation and interpretation of data. There was no interaction effect about critical thinking skills between the teaching strategy and cognitive level, achievement, gender of those students.

This study is to understand intuition that is the tool of invention and the one factor of the creative thinking in mathematical education. For this, I examine the nature of intuition and the history of research about intuition. And I study the result of research about intuition in cognitive psychological perspectives. This study brings to a focus in informational processing model. Informational processing model is similar to the mathematical problem solving process that is expressed linear process. Recently, parallel distributed processing models try to understand the nature of intuition. But any models cannot adequately explain the nature and the phenomena of illumination of intuition. Some scholars try to examine the intuition in mathematical education. But systematic and practical research is rare. So, I suggest the mathematical educational implications about intuition. Conclusively, it is necessary to systematic concern in intuition and the methods of improvement of intuition in mathematical education.

A web page was developed to enhance students' learning experience in studying meteorological phenomena. After collecting the meteorological elements observed with automatic weather observation system (AWS), it serve real-time meteorological information on demand. Past meteorological information as well as real-time current information can be retrieved because the web page can save and accumulate observed information in its data base. The completed web page was successfully applied in school settings in teaching students meteorology research sections of earth science. The results show that students experienced authentic and meaningful learning through the real-time meteorological information from the web page. In addition, large scale of time was required to observe meteorological phenomena and it hindered practical meteorological research in earth science classes. However, it is expected that the time limitation can be overcome by utilizing accumulated meteorological information of the web page.

This research presents the relationship building between the supervisor and supervisee through the supervision process in a narrative inquiry. The supervisory relationships of the supervisor A and supervisee B, and the effects they have on the relationship between the two are described in as factual terms as possible. The results imply that genuineness and openness are the core components of relationship. Especially, in the case of a highly hierarchical relationship, where it is often easy for the supervisor to employ hidden tactics, efforts on the part of the supervisor's endeavor to develop unconditional acceptance can be helpful in establishing a more open-minded attitude. As a result, the common view in the literature that attributes relationship hierarchy to cultural factors may need to be reexamined. This research provides evidence that in the case of supervision and training in counseling, establishing an environment of acceptance, trust and rapport can help advance the supervisory relationship to a less hierarchical form.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Science Writing Heuristic (SWH) teaching strategy on cognitive levels, science concept understanding, argumentation and writing skills. 131 students attending to co-ed middle school were selected for the study and assigned to the experimental and comparative group. The teaching strategy using SWH was applied to the experimental group, while the traditional one led by teacher's lecturing was applied to the comparative group. The cognitive level test (SRT II) and baseline test were administered before the instruction period. The summary writing test and SRT II test were administered after instruction. The results showed that there was a significant difference between two groups in cognitive levels and science concept understanding, whole argumentation and writing skills. However, there was no significant difference in some argumentation components, including warrant, backing, qualifier, rebuttal, metacongnitive question. The results of this study showed the possibility of implementation of SWH in science classroom teaching.

초등학교 수학과 도형 학습은 매우 추상적인 분야로 직관적인 이해를 돕기 위해 다양한 구체적인 조작이 요구되는데, 그 중에서 컴퓨터를 활용한 도형 학습은 학생들의 구체물을 이용한 학습의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 특히 Flex와 Flash를 이용하면 입체도형의 가상물의 제작 및 동적인 학습은 물론 사용상의 제약이 적어 시,공간의 한계를 극복할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 초등학교 수학과 제 7차 교육과정의 입체도형 영역을 분석하여 학습요소를 추출하고 플래시의 드로잉 메서드를 바탕으로 학습요소별로 속성과 메서드를 정의하고 클래스를 설계하여 입체도형 객체를 생성하고 플렉스의 컴포넌트로 구성된 학습 어플리케이션의 틀을 설계하여 입체도형 객체가 플렉스의 어플리케이션 내에서 사용이 가능하도록 설계 개발하였다. 본 연구가 갖는 의의는 첫째, 초등학교 수학과 수준에 맞는 속성과 메서드를 갖도록 개발한 입체도형 객체를 활용하여 학습자의 입체도형에 자유로운 탐구활동 기회를 제공하여 보다 직관적이고 구체적으로 도형학습을 할 수 있도록 돕는다. 둘째, 플렉스를 활용함으로서 학습자의 쉬운 접근을 돕고 학습 어플리케이션 틀을 활용하여 기존에 개발되어 있는 수학과 플래시 파일들을 활용한 다른 수학과 영역의 학습 어플리케이션 설계 및 개발의 시간과 노력을 단축시키는데 있다.

게임의 난이도는 게임 디자인에서 중요한 요소로, 사용자의 몰입과 만족도를 크게 좌우한다. 전통적인 게임 난이도 조절은 일반적으로 기획자의 경험과 판단에 의해 이루어진다. 그러나 기존의 난이도 조절 방식은 다양한 사용자의 개별 실력 수준을 정밀하게 반영하는 데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 GPT 를 활용하여 게임의 난이도를 동적으로 조절하는 방법을 제안한다. 사용자의 게임 플레이 정보를 수집하고 GPT 로 사용자의 게임 실력을 분석하고 평가한다. 평가를 바탕으로 게임의 난이도와 관련된 요소들을 조절한다. 이를 통해 GPT 가 게임 디자인 도구로서 가지는 잠재력을 탐구한다.

Creative thinking alone can not lead to scientific creativity. Scientific knowledge and scientific inquiry skills are needed for scientific creativity. Focused only on cognitive aspect, I suggested a cognitive model of scientific creativity (CMSC) consisting of 3 components: thinking for scientific creativity, scientific knowledge contents, and scientific inquiry skills. Recently, many researchers have emphasized the various thinking for creativity as well as divergent thinking. Therefore, I suggested three types of creative thinking - divergent thinking, convergent thinking, and associational thinking - and discussed its rationale. Based on this model, an example of activity material for the scientific creativity was suggested. In the further research, based on CMSC, various activity types related to scientific creativity and concrete learning materials for scientific creativity will be developed.
