In order to keep the school's environment safe and clean, it needs to have a regular control system. There are limits to the student's abilities on keeping the school safe and clean, therefore cleaning professionals and specialized companies are needed as well. In case of financial program, principals or chief administrations are in charge of school building's environmental management. And it might cause poor efficiency and imbalance of distributing works on business in their charge and there are limits to keep the school's environment. This paper prepares alternatives of effective school building managements to solve these problems.

The present study in the view of humanistic psychology was attempted to seek the purpose of study, the relationship between nurses′working efficiency that measured by an observational working efficiency scale and their subjective perception. "Perceptual orientation scale"(Choy, Chung Hoon 1971) was administered to 100 nurses during the Period of May to July 1972, and the relationship with their ratings by their supervising head nurses. Educational background, ages, and their lengths of caller were compared with their subjective perceptions. All the relationship were calculated by the method of chi-squares and correlational coefficients. The results of this study are summarized as follow: 1. There is no significant relationship between nurses′subjective perceptions and their working ratings. 2. There is significant relationship between nurses′subjective perceptions and their educational backgrounds. 3. There is no significant relationship between nurses′subjective perceptions and their lengths of career. 4. There is no significant relationship between nurses′subjective perceptions and their ages. The results of the present study are interpreted to the sampled research group of this study and are not to be extended to any other groups.

Teacher's practical knowledge is potentially relevant to the teaching practice in his/her classroom. The research explored early childhood teachers' practical knowledge of 'curriculum' via conceptual metaphors. The participants (N=348) completed a prompt, "Curriculum is like A because B" and then the metaphors were analyzed according to the procedure proposed by Moser (2000). The analysis found that 8 themes (i.e. 'educational basis', 'learning opportunity', 'educational material', 'difficulty', 'change', 'pre-determination', 'discordance', and 'reconstruction') were the underlying conceptions signified in those metaphors. The implications regarding early childhood teachers' practical knowledge were discussed on the perspective of post-modern curriculum. Moreover, it recommended the practical knowledge based approach for early childhood teacher education, and transformation of current policy for program evaluation relevant to curriculum conceptualization.

Environmental Literacy is needed to establish a sustainable society and can be very well developed through Outdoor Environmental Education(OEE). However, establishing OEE in Korea is a very difficult. Thus, it is very important to find out which factors influence the sustainability of OEE. The purpose of this study is to identify those factors. Participatory observation research and some interviews were used in "The Whale Class" of the University of Georgia in the United States. Major findings and recommendations were as follows: (1) OEEs give participants good experiences about the environment; (2) Program operators of OEEs are enthusiastic about education and environmental conservation; (3) Good educational practices such as cooperative education and participation in conversation foster learning; (4) Good organizations with guest lectures from various environmental fields would be beneficial; (5) Public information about environmental programs would be helpful; (6) Administrative support for those organizations connected to environmental programs would be useful; and (7) OEE provide reflection activities to foster Environmental Literacy.

The Vietnamese language has a specific property related to the zero in the name-number system. This study was conducted to examine the impact of linguistic differences and of the zero's position in a number on a transcoding task (verbal number into Arabic number). Vietnamese children and French-speaking Belgian children, from grades 3 to 6, participated in the study. The success rate and the type of errors they made varied, depending on their grade and language. At Grade 4, Vietnamese children showed performances equivalent to Grade 6 Belgian children. Our results confirmed the support provided by language to the understanding and performances in a transcoding task. Results also showed that a syntactic zero is easier to manipulate than a lexical zero for Vietnamese children. The relative influence of language and the source of errors are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to research on relationship between the circulation system of students and resident users in elementary school complex. 4 elementary schools in Seoul were chosen for this study. The method of this study is a plan analysis, an on-the-spot survey, and user behavior observation. The circulation system of students and resident users at school zone(outside) and Community school were observed. The following is the main results of this study. First, circulation systems are mixed between public zone and student zone in Community school. Therefore these zones shall be planed separated. Second, resident users tend to go directly to the facilities gathered together. Therefore main entrance has to be located closely to the facilities gathered together. In accordance with this results, both the main entrance of Community school and the students facilities have to be considered when planing the circulation system in school from now on.

This article aims to analyze the experience of designing and operating a class model linking undergraduate and graduate students in engineering education and suggest its development direction. To achieve these objectives, the undergraduate-graduate linked class model was applied to community problem-solving education and a case was analyzed. It also specifically presented the process of how we design the class model and what the actual operational performances and improvements are. This study found that undergraduate and graduate students could build integrated and horizontal cooperative relationships in their classes through undergraduate-graduate linked education and, particularly, graduate students could gain meaningful educational experiences. However, it was difficult to obtain tangible performances through the team activities of these students within a semester. In order for engineering colleges to operate undergraduate-graduate linked education, it would be necessary to provide a longer and more systematic educational environment and better curriculum. The study tried to seek specific tasks and ways to improve them.

In this paper, we deal with the algebraic thinking from the perspective of ‘process’ and ‘object’ aspects. Generally, mathematical concepts have come from the concrete process. We consider the origin of algebra as the arithmetic calculations. Also, the concept of school arithmetic is beginning from actions or procedures. However, in order to develop the alge- braic thinking and to apply this thinking, we have to see the history of algebraic thinking, and find this duality. Next we investigate various researches relating to the ‘process-object duality’. Theses studies suppose that the concept formation and thinking process should be stared from the process-object duality. Finally, we reinterprete many difficulties in algebra - equals sign, variables, algebraic expressions, and linear equations, the principle of permanence of form- from the perspective of the process-object duality.

The purpose of this study is to find a method to improve geometry instruction. For this purpose, I have investigated aims and problems of geometry education. I also reviewed related literature about discovery methods as well as verification. Through this review, “Mathematising teaching and learning methods” by Freudenthal is Presented as an alternative to geometry instruction. I investigated the capability of dynamic software for realization of this method. The result of this investigation is that dynamic software is a powerful tool in realizing this method. At last, I present one example of mathematic activity using dynamic software that can be used by school teachers.
