  • e-러닝의 활용도와 역할이 커져 가면서, 온톨로지(Ontology)나 컨셉맵(Concept Map)을 이용하여 e-러닝의 학습효과를 높이는 방안들이 연구되고 있다. 그러나 아직까지 e-러닝에 온톨로지나 컨셉맵 개념을 적용한 연구 사례는 미미한 수준이며, 이들간의 연계에 대한 고려 없이 별개의 대상으로 다루어져 왔다. 본 연구는 온톨로지와 컨셉맵의 상호 연관 관계와 각각의 장점들을 분석하여 학습에 있어서 시너지(Synergy)를 가져올 수 있는 새로운 e-러닝 시스템 구축 방안을 제안한다. 제안 시스템에서 온톨로지와 컨셉맵 간의 연계는 컨셉맵 에이전트에 의해 이루어진다. 컨셉맵 에이전트는 학습자의 수준이나 관심영역(주제와 범위)에 맞게 온톨로지로부터 추출한 학습 콘텐츠를 재구성해 준다. 학습자는 제안 시스템의 사용자 인터페이스를 통해 자신이 이해하고 있는 지식을 컨셉맵 형태로 표현할 수 있고, 컨셉맵 에이전트에게 요청하여 제공 받은 모범답안 컨셉맵과 자신이 표현한 컨셉맵을 비교하여 학습자가 스스로 자기 평가를 할 수 있다. 본 e-러닝 시스템이 제공하는 이러한 새로운 형태의 학습 환경은 학습자가 학습 지식에 대해 보다 체계적으로 접근하여 효과적으로 학습할 수 있게 해준다. 또한, 학습에 있어서 컨셉맵을 이용하므로 학습 형태의 특성상 보다 원천적으로 암기 위주의 학습에서 탈피하여 구성주의적인 학습을 가능하게 한다.

  • The cloned X-bacterial gene (groEx) which is analogous to groE of E. Coli strongly expressed in E. coli when grown at the temperature 27.deg. C or higher without having to add any inducers. By S1-nuclease mapping, primer extension analysis and site directed mutagenesis, we found 4 promoters in the gene. Among them two promoters located at 5'-extended region of the gene are homologous to the promoters found in groE family of heat-shock genes ; they are , .sigma.$^{32}$ factor-dependent P1 promotor and .delta$^{70}$factor-dependet P2 promoter. The other two promoters found within the coding region of groESx were P3, 5'-TTGGCG-(18 bases)-AATACT-3' and P4, 5'-TTGGCA-(19 bases)-TAAGT which overlapped within 49 bases. These unique intragenic .delta.$^{70}$-dependent promoters are the first to be cloned and characterized in groE analogous heat-shock genes so far. These P3 and P4 promoters appeared to be responsible for the strong expression of GroElx in X-bacteria in vivo.

  • Using a ray tracing simulation, we have investigated the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst phenomena of touch screen panels (TSPs) based on opaque metallic grids (square, hexagonal, and random grids). It is demonstrated that employing a random metal mesh is the most effective way to suppress the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst phenomena at the same time. At high crossing angles between metal mesh of TSPs and black matrix (BM) of displays, however, a random metal mesh brings in stronger moir${\acute{e}}$ phenomenon than a square metal mesh due to point defects. Though the square metal mesh suppresses the moir${\acute{e}}$ effect substantially at high crossing angles, yet it results in the strongest starburst patterns. We have also provided the simulation scheme that can capture the moir${\acute{e}}$ and starburst patterns observed experimentally and useful design guidelines for metal grids.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of goal contents on failure tolerance in engineers (i.e., students and experts in engineering). Based on the goal contents theory, which is a sub-theory of self-determination theory, three intrinsic goals (i.e., self-growth, help, social concern) and two extrinsic goals (i.e., money, fame) were under investigation. A total of 398 participants (118 undergraduate students, 181 graduate students, 99 experts) answered survey questions. In the hierarchical multiple regressions, self-growth goal was entered as the first model, then, to the second model, the other four goals were added. The results showed that social concern goal significantly predicted failure tolerance among all engineer groups. Self-growth goal was closely associated with failure tolerance in undergraduate students and graduate students. Help goal was significant only among graduate students. These results suggest that pursuing intrinsic goals, especially, social concern goal is important to increase failure tolerance. Establishing infrastructure and educational climate for pursuing social concern goal can facilitate the development of personal expertise in engineers as well as the improvement of society.

  • This study analyzed the effects of 'online biology learning using E-learning system' on elementary school students' science-related attitudes. Samples of the study were composed of 95 sixth-grade students of N elementary school in Seoul, Korea. The learning was conducted for 11 times over a month. The main results of this study are as follows. First, for the paired t-test, a statistically significant difference between the pre and post scores of science-related attitudes was found. After conducting the online biology learning science related attitudes scores of students generally declined. "The boredom caused by simply watching online biology contents" is the decisive cause of the decline in science-related attitude scores analyzed through interviews. Second, in ANCOVA, according to 'levels of meta-cognition'. there was no statistically significant difference in scores of science-related attitudes. but, there was statistically significant difference in science-related attitudes according to 'adoption of scientific attitudes'. Students of high meta-cognition type showed a greater decline in scores than students of low meta-cognition type. Based on the results of this study, implications for research of online biology education and elementary science education are discussed.

  • Euglenoids occurring in freshwaters are indicator organisms to be used for assessing water quality and applying to environmental education. One hundred sixty eight taxa of euglenoids belonging to three orders, four families and nine genera occur in various waters, especially in eutrophicated and polluted places in Korea. Members of Euglena and Strombomonas are abundant in urban drainages and old ponds, and those of Trachelomonas, Phacus, and Lepocinclis often occur in stagnant waters such as natural wetlands and old swamps. Population size of some euglenoids is significantly correlated to nitrogenous nutrients. Euglena caudata, E. doses, E. ehrenbergii, E. haemichromata, E. geniculata, E. viridis, Lepocinclis ovum, Strombomonas urceolata, Phacus trypanon, Trachelomonas hispida, and T volvocina cells in Korea bloomed in winter and spring, when other phytoplanktonic algae greatly decrease. Blooming of euglenoids indicates tolerance to pollutants and positive selection as a result of competition with other phytoplankton species. We developed a web site on green euglenoids (Yahoo. com: Science/ Biology/ Botany/ Phycology/ Biology of Green Euglenoids), which may be use d for cyber education of water environment. We also presented a method for assessing water quality using diversity and population size of euglenoids, which is considered to be suitable for environmental education of polluted waters.

  • An e-Seal is an active RFID device that was set on the door of a container. e-Seal provides both the state of the seal and the remote control of the device automatically. But it has vulnerabilities like eavesdrop and impersonate because of using RFID system. A secure e-Seal authentication protocol must use PRF for encryption/decryption of reader and e-Seal. The existing PRF uses simple hash function such as MD5 or SHA which is not available for e-Seal. It is required to use strong hash functions. The hash function is a essential technique used for data integrity, message authentication and encryption in the mechanism of information security. Therefore, in this paper, we propose more secure and effective hash function based on polynomial for e-Seal authentication protocol.

  • E-Learning is widely introduced with cyber universities in Korea from 2001 whencyber universities were first authorized by the Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development. E-learning amplified by cyber university gave a big impact in the campus based university which became the cause for the educational paradigm shift. The changes of status of cyber university shows important trend in college education which was analyzed by enrollment rate, types of cyber university, demography, and study areas. The enrollment rate of cyber universities is ever since 2001 and variety of study areas gives popularity to students. The demography of students is as expected older than traditional students. Female students at the cyber university outnumbered that at campus based university in Korea. For analyzing the trend of e-learning in Korea, there were studies twice in 2001 May-June from 213 faculty members and staff, 630 students and in 2004 May-June with 401 students. Most of e-learning students tent to spend less time yet, students feel more burden with e-learning. Professors tend to load more materials for the e-learning in 2001but in 2004 study, the difference no longer exists. Professors and students feel the academic achievement through e-learning is not as good as from the traditional classes. Difficulties for e-learning in 2001 were the lack of administrative information but in 2004, boring contents and lack of instructional strategies for e-learning. Technical problems still do exist but less serious. Suggestions for e-learning are blended learning, online students prefer video streaming with their own lecturer, new definition of instructor is needed, professional development for content development and online instruction is needed, success story of online learning should be encouraged, guidance for online students needed. The cyber university experiencegave a positive impact on the traditional universities such as rethinking the roles of universities, the quality control of classes, professional development, student oriented educational service of e-learning pedagogy.
