The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of teacher-directed and learner-directed ICT instructions on the learning achievement of Home Economics and resource management behavior according to self efficacy of learning. The subjects of this study were students, selected from the second grade of D Middle school in Daegu, who were divided into three groups - the traditional instruction, teacher-directed ICT instruction, and learner-directed ICT instruction groups. The students were decided into three groups by their self efficacy of learning level. The experimental instructions were performed, and the learning achievement and resource management behavior estimated using test sheets. The data were processed using two-way ANCOVA and Scheff tests for post-hoc analyses. The results were as follows: First, there was a significant difference in the influence of the ICT instruction on the learning achievement of home economics according to self efficacy of learning. Second, there was a significant difference in the influence of the ICT instruction on the resource management behavior according to self-efficacy of learning.

The purpose of this study is restructuring the template to apply the 'Backward design' for Home Economics Instruction. This study reviewed the theory of Wiggins and McTighe, the advocates of backward design, and examined the template for version 2.0 of Wiggins and McTighe (2011). In addition, This study analyzed various previous researches using backward design, and drew implications for template restructuring for applying backward design on Home Economics Instruction. In addition, the validity of the template was verified through facial validity through the expert council. Through this process, the final 5 stages (1. Curriculum Analysis → 2. Instructional Design (Learning Experience Design ↔ Evaluation Design (Performance Task Planning) → 3. Instruction Flow → 4. Class guide for each class → 5. Evaluation record, and feedback)suggested templates for applying backward design. Future research will use the restructured assumptions and templates to develop teaching materials in the Home Economics areas of the 2015 revised curriculum. In future research, field research should be carried out on how the Home Economics instruction with backward design affects learners.

The purpose of this study was to test the effects of practical reasoning home economics instruction on middle school students' views of home economics. Thomas(1986) categorized six alternative views of home economics as education for women, manual training, application of science, household management, family development, and an intervention. This study carried a quasi-experiment research with an independent variable of types of instruction and a dependent variable of views of home economics. The experiment was carried with the sample of 137 8th grade students in Gwangju area for ten class hours. Paired t-test was performed to examine the pretest-posttest differences of each experiment group and comparison group. The results showed that practical reasoning instruction improved level of the view of home economics as an intervention, and decreased level of the view of home economics as manual training. From the results of this study, conclusion can be made that practical reasoning home economics instruction is effective in changing to the appropriate views of home economics. Also it is expected that current Korean home economics textbook can lead to the views of home economics as household management and as family development.

MCA was done to assess the independent explanatory power of predictory variables. The educational level of father and mother were included separately in different model. The MCA that the educational level of father was included in, The most influential variable was the preference for the Home Economics and the involvement with Home Economics was the second.

The purposes of this study were to compare the learning effects of CAI and traditional instruction method in the Home Economics class of middle school and to examine the difference of learning effect between CAI group and traditional instruction group according to ability level. The research findings are as follows: 1.$\circled1$As a result of the post test, CAI group showed significantly higher scores on academic achievement than those of traditional instruction group(p<.05). $\circled2$As a result of the retention test, CAI group showed higher scores than those of traditional instruction group, but statistically the difference is not so significant. 2. $\circled1$Higher group in pre-test score of CAI group showed higher scores in post-test and retention test than those of traditional instruction group, but statistically the difference is not so significant. $\circled2$Lower group in pretest score of CAI group showed significantly higher academic achievements than those of traditional instruction group(p<.05). $\circled3$Higher group in IQ test score of CAI group did not show significantly higher academic achievements than those of traditional instruction group. $\circled4$Lower group in IQ test score of CAI group showed significantly higher academic achievements than those of traditional instruction group(p<.05)

On the other hand it suggests the need of gender equity education in Home Economics Education the related measures and some applicable course of study. And For the purpose of exemplification this study was developed gender equity instruction in Home Economics Education. The results are as follows: First the recent gender equity education in our education system can be interpreted as giving equal education opportunity and equal education objective. Therefore this kind of theory results in the education of Home Economics for both the male and female students. This results can be valued as boosting the availability of Home Economics Education and providing a stepping stone for Home Economics Education Development. Second the ultimate objective of Gender Equity Education is to cultivate a person to be equipped with Gender Equity concept and to implement the concept. Therefore Home Economics Education (Ministry of Education 1995) which has the ultimate objective of improving the quality of the individual and family life can be the most important curriculum for understanding the abstract concept of Gender Equity and providing various practical contents. Third the Gender Equity Education in Home Economics can be realized through the following measures:(1) The efforts to positively restructure the education contents after analysing and evaluating the education contents in terms of the Gender Equity concept.
