Robots have been attracting students' interest recently. Therefore, they are a good way to motivate to study related subjects. However, there are difficulties in teaching general students because a wide background is required to understand the fundamentals of robotics. In order to teach robotics fundamentals to beginners in a short period, an effective experimental class, including several phased experiments, is proposed in this paper. A portable two-DOF robot arm system with servo motors was developed for experiments, and the operation method based on kinematics was introduced for its operation. The effectiveness of the class was investigated by using a questionnaire after carrying it out in a university class for junior students.

The competence of teachers, comes out through their lesson, is one of the key factors of school education. The purpose of this study is comparing the viewpoints on the science lessons in the elementary classrooms between pre-service teachers and highly experienced teachers in order to draw implications on pre-service teacher educating system. The participants of the study are 14 junior students in a university of education and 9 elementary school teachers who are highly educated and have much career experience. Each student participant observed one video clip with science lesson of their classmate. The total number of the video subject to observation is 4. Meanwhile experienced teachers observed 1 or 2 videos which are the same to those the students watched. The participants made a class criticism according to the General Standards for Class Critique made by KICE. The in-depth analysis of the criticism yielded the following conclusions; First, pre-service teachers had narrow views on the science class mainly limited in the practical part of class, but experienced teachers had wide views covered to class-knowledge, plan, and practice. Second, most experienced teachers thought that learning is the process by which students acquire knowledge or concepts by themselves, and the main purpose of the class is to help students' learning. Meanwhile, there were many pre-service teachers who thought that conveying knowledge or concepts to students was the main purpose of the class. Third, experienced teachers thought that a good science class should maintain consistency around the learning goals from the planning, implementation, and evaluation. However, many pre-service teachers did not take the learning objectives so seriously.

In most of the existing literature, the definition of the class label has the following characteristics. First, the class label of the samples from the same object has an absolutely fixed value. Second, the difference between class labels of the samples from different objects should be maximized. However, the appearance of a face varies greatly due to the variations of the illumination, pose, and expression. Therefore, the previous definition of class label is not quite reasonable. Inspired by discriminative least squares regression algorithm (DLSR), a noisy label based discriminative least squares regression algorithm (NLDLSR) is presented in this paper. In our algorithm, the maximization difference between the class labels of the samples from different objects should be satisfied. Meanwhile, the class label of the different samples from the same object is allowed to have small difference, which is consistent with the fact that the different samples from the same object have some differences. In addition, the proposed NLDLSR is expanded to the kernel space, and we further propose a novel kernel noisy label based discriminative least squares regression algorithm (KNLDLSR). A large number of experiments show that our proposed algorithms can achieve very good performance.

Class I methanol masers are found to be good tracers of the interaction between outflows from massive young stellar objects with their surrounding media. Although polarization observations of Class II methanol masers have been able to provide information about magnetic fi elds close to the central (proto)stars, polarization observations of Class I methanol masers are rare, especially at 44 and 95GHz. We present the results of linear polarization observations of 39 Class I methanol maser sources at 44 and 95GHz. These two lines are observed simultaneously with one of the 21m Korean VLBI Network telescopes in single-dish mode. Approximately 60% of the observed sources have fractional polarizations of a few percent in at least one transition. This is the fi rst reported detection of linear polarization of the 44GHz methanol maser. We also observed 7 targets with the KVN in VLBI mode. We will present its preliminary results, too.

본 연구는 초등학교 과학영재수업을 담당하는 교사들의 과학 영재수업 및 영재아에 대한 인식 변화와 교사들의 실제 수업 및 동료교사 간의 대화를 통해 실천적 지식의 변화과정을 알아보는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 연구대상으로 수업개선을 희망하는 초등교사 2명(A와 B교사)을 선정하였고, 그 교사들은 수업 및 수업대화를 통해 수업에 대한 자기성찰과정을 경험하였다. 교직경력 10년차인 A교사는 학부 때부터 영재아 관찰을 통해 영재를 접해왔고 평소에도 영재나 과학수업에 관심을 많이 갖고 있어 대학원에 진학하였다. 그에 비해 B교사는 교직경력이 3년차이며 대학원에 진학한 이후 영재아를 접해 본 교사이다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 좋은 수업에 대한 확고한 신념과 영재에 관한 지식이 선행되어 있는 A교사는 자신의 실제 교실 수업 경험으로부터 반성적 성찰을 통해 영재수업에 대한 실천적 지식이 발달되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 수업관찰과 동료교사와의 수업대화를 통해 고민한 부분에 대하여는 교수방법을 변경하거나 교과내용지식을 보강하는 등 실천적 지식이 다음 수업에 실제적으로 반영되어 나타났다. 그러나 영재에 관한 지식이 선행되지 않은 B교사는 자신의 수업성찰이나 수업 경험이라기보다는 동료교사와의 대화를 통해 실천적 지식의 발달이 이루어졌으며 형성된 실천적 지식을 다음 수업에 반영하는데 다소 어려움을 겪는 듯하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 교사가 가지고 있는 신념, 가치관, 경험, 지식 등에 따라 실천적 지식의 변화과정이나 형성과정이 다르다는 것을 알 수 있다. 수업, 수업관찰, 동료교사와의 수업대화를 통한 자기 수업에 대한 성찰은 초등영재 담당교사가 실천적 지식을 형성하여 수업전문성을 향상시키기에 좋은 방법이 되므로 영재 교사교육 프로그램에서 모의수업, 자기수업반성, 수업대화를 통해 수업에 대한 실천적 지식을 형성할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 데 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

We apply a modified Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model in conjunction with transfer learning to predict whether an active region (AR) would produce a ≥C-class or ≥M-class flare within the next 24 hours. We collect line-of-sight magnetogram samples of ARs provided by the SHARP from May 2010 to September 2018, which is a new data product from the HMI onboard the SDO. Based on these AR samples, we adopt the approach of shuffle-and-split cross-validation (CV) to build a database that includes 10 separate data sets. Each of the 10 data sets is segregated by NOAA AR number into a training and a testing data set. After training, validating, and testing our model, we compare the results with previous studies using predictive performance metrics, with a focus on the true skill statistic (TSS). The main results from this study are summarized as follows. First, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the CNN model with transfer learning is used in solar physics to make binary class predictions for both ≥C-class and ≥M-class flares, without manually engineered features extracted from the observational data. Second, our model achieves relatively high scores of TSS = 0.640±0.075 and TSS = 0.526±0.052 for ≥M-class prediction and ≥C-class prediction, respectively, which is comparable to that of previous models. Third, our model also obtains quite good scores in five other metrics for both ≥C-class and ≥M-class flare prediction. Our results demonstrate that our modified CNN model with transfer learning is an effective method for flare forecasting with reasonable prediction performance.
