The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a bibliotherapy program on the happiness index of University students. To do this, this study collected its data through two questionnaires and the writings of 14 undergraduate students taking part in the bibliotherapy program. The bibliotherapy program was designed and applied to the course of 'Bibliotherapy' for the spring semester of 2013. The results were as follows: Firstly, we can raise the happiness index through the bibliotherapy program. More specifically, we can raise the level of satisfaction with life to a great extent, and increase positive emotions to some degree. However, reducing negative emotions is difficult. Secondly, we can heal with meditation, prayer, sticking to reality. etc., Thirdly, the bibliotherapist should consider the autonomy of the participant of the bibliotherapy program when he select books.

There is more than one way to conduct scientific research. In addressing the concern for educating the gifted in science towards achieving objectives of fostering their research skill, its elements need be explored and discussed by first admitting that various methodologies and features coexist in the name of scientific research. This study explores the various features of research skill presented as scientific process skills focusing on the students' experimental designing. Of course, there are several other domains included facets of research skill, such as problem finding, scientific knowledge, and self-efficacy. A Diet Cola Test (DCT) (Fowler. 1990) for digging into science process skills as an elements of research skills was administered to 705 students from 3rd to 10th grade, who enrolled the gifted education centers in Korea. Date was interpreted and analyzed based on the focus of Science education perspectives and research methods related to creative thinking and problem-based learning. But I eschew establishing and generalizing fixed constitutes of research skill from this research.

Among five types of the model textbook based on storytelling, the type of 'Inquiry into history of Mathematics' focuses on adapting the logic of mathematical discovery to the organization of mathematical contents. It enables students to recognize that mathematics has been developed by human needs and creativity while they are engaged in the story about knowledge formation. Moreover the textbook offers the context in which students are able to understand mathematical insights and logics hidden in the subject matter, so that they can reinvent and develop mathematical knowledge. In this study, we found the principles for development of the textbook based on storytelling for 'Inquiry into History of Mathematics' by analyzing the chapter about 'Complex number and Quadratic Equations' of the model textbook. The chapter was implemented in classroom environment and students' understanding of the subject matter and their perception on the textbook based on storytelling were surveyed before and after the implementation. The results showed the possibilities of adapting the textbook based on storytelling and we suggested some implications for further development.

The study was conducted to analyze the extent of students' creativity through the use of scaffolding composed of different kinds of experience in making insights on problem solving and to investigate the function of a new scaffolding type which is not used in accomplishing a phase of activity but in having an insight. The students' achievements in problem solving given the scaffolding for on-site experience were compared with those given the scaffolding using stories. Also, the extent of creativity of the first- and sixth- grade students using the two types of scaffolding were investigated as they carried out picture completion task from TTCT. The results of the study showed that the control groups not given the scaffolding in post-test did not advance in creativity but experimental groups given the scaffolding showed improvement in some subordinate elements after scaffolding. Moreover, scaffolding using stories were more effective in enhancing the students' creativity than the scaffolding using on-site experience.

This paper starts with the recognition of the problem of the need for a link between text-centered acting and body-centered acting. This study is focused on Brecht's theory of acting to overcome loss of presence by repetition which have been discussed many times by not only actors, but also acting educators. Brecht's acting theory has already been mentioned by many researchers as an alternative to conventional actor training. However, not many studies have been conducted on practical applicable methods. The purpose of this study is to provide the basis for the actual practice of Brecht acting and possibility that his acting theory can serve as a link between text and body-centered acting theory. As a research method, we first conduct theoretical considerations on the concepts and limitations of text-centered representational acting and body-centered post-drama acting. Then distinguish between text and body-centered acting tools among Brecht's epic theatre, to summarize the terms and concepts he uses and to identify the existing effects he reaches while acting. Finally, this paper proposes an teaching model that transforms and develops Brecht's acting theory through the writer's teaching experience. However, there are limitations in generalizing its effectiveness because this study is based on the writer's experience. We hope that further research will help the diversity of acting education by developing in-depth insights on Brecht acting theory and various models of acting teaching methods.
