  • Despite the trend of the times and the government's efforts to implement policies, a number of students, having difficulties in learning math, are still growing. Reflecting this, many studies related to underachiever of learning mathematics were conducted in the field of mathematics education. Most of these studies, however, were intended to find the cause of underachievers of learning mathematics or experimental studies that applied the specific teaching procedures to the underachievers of learning mathematics and found their effectiveness in terms of academic achievement, compared it beforehand. Thus, in this study, 49 studies, from including theses and published journal papers from 2001, were meta-analyzed to find out how effective the teaching treatment for underachievers of learning mathematics has improved academic performance. As a result of this analysis, we found that teaching treatment generally have moderate effect sizes for children with having difficulties in learning mathematics. It was also possible to analyze the effect of various interventions and to obtain some suggestions on which circumstances the greatest effect could be achieved. Teaching treatments for underachiever of learning mathematics could have greater effectiveness in elementary school level, institution certified testing tool was used, targeted for each individual, taught by peer student, lasted for at least 8 weeks, and using teaching aids and ICT tools.

  • Purpose: This study compared the relative importance of educational content, teaching methods, and evaluation methods in the patient assessment curricula of 119 emergency medical technicians (EMTs). Methods: First, we identified the educational content, training hours, and teaching and evaluation methods of the existing patient assessment curriculum based on the National Competency Standard learning module. Second, we surveyed 30 EMTs affiliated with 119 services using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Subsequently, we compared the differences between the current curriculum and the AHP analysis results. Results: Currently in operation, the "Advanced EMT Course" comprises three learning modules: assessment of patient status, scene size-up and triage, and assessment using monitoring devices. Among these, content related to the assessment of patient status received the most allocated time and was deemed the most important according to the AHP survey results. Conversely, while less time was allocated to scene size and triage compared with assessment using monitoring devices, the former was assessed as more important than the latter in the AHP results. Furthermore, scenario-based team training and procedure-focused individual practice were evaluated as relatively important teaching methods, while practical examination using a checklist was deemed the most appropriate evaluation method for all learning content. Conclusion: To improve the patient assessment curriculum, we propose adjusting teaching hours and introducing new teaching and evaluation methods based on the results of relative importance. The proposed improvement plan will contribute to enhancing the competency of 119 EMTs.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide fundamental background to improve the quality of teaching and learning performance in online classes by analyzing the students' learning experience aspects on online environment. This study explores the relationship between learning experience and teaching and learning performance according to the online classes types(synchronous/asynchronous class), and identifies the mediation effect of students' perception and attitude toward online classes using Structural Equations Model(SEM). The findings are shown as follows: First, learning experience has positive effect on teaching and learning performance statistically. Second, learning experience has different effect on teaching and learning performance depending on the type of online classes. Specifically, learning experience in synchronous environment has higher influence on teaching and learning performance than in asynchronous environment. On the other hand, perception and attitude toward online classes have greater influence on teaching and learning performance in asynchronous class than in synchronous class. Lastly, the students' perception and attitude toward online classes do not have mediation effects significantly in the relationship between learning experience and teaching and learning performance. The result of this study can be a guide for researcher to approach to teaching and learning performance in online environment of university.

  • Purpose: This study proposed an improved method of teaching cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Methods: A teaching method for CPR using a song was evaluated. To validate the effect of this teaching method, we performed a comparative reference test against a traditional CPR lecture-oriented education method. A total of 202 study participants were enrolled in this project. Half were taught by the traditional CPR education method, and the other half were taught by the alternative educational method using a song. Results: The results for those educated by the traditional lecture-oriented method showed scores of 4.84 / 6.00 (Mean of knowledge) and 70.22 / 100 (Mean of practice ability for CPR). The results for those educated by the alternative method showed scores of 5.26 / 6.00 (Mean of knowledge) and 74.13 / 100 (Mean of practice ability for CPR). The alternative educational method utilizing a song improved the results on written and practical examinations. This improvement could be attributed to the effect of music on memory circuits in the brain. Conclusion: We believe that the results of this study will help to improve the success rates of CPR.

  • The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of the method of English teaching and learning through the student-centered environmental instruction. I've been skeptical about the traditional instruction, which is composed of the teachers-centered instruction, because of the lack of creativity. Until now, I've always wished to have an alternative method that can be substituted for routine's style. To achieve it, I selected 90 students from 2 classes, in the 3rd year at a girls' high school in Chungnam as the subject of study. I divided them into two groups, the student-centered environmental instruction and the teacher-centered traditional instruction. The tools used in this study are a preliminary English achievement test, a self-directed learning attitudes test and two teaching plans. For this test, a high school text book was assigned. I have treated 20 times of the test each for two groups using two types of teaching-learning plans which I made for this purpose. To verify the hypotheses after administrating the test, I selected t-verification for post test result. Based on this test result, I could conclude that there was a significant improvement of English proficiency and a change in the self-directed learning attitudes; also the student-centered environmental instruction is more effective than teachers-centered instruction.

  • The quality of environmental education in school depends on the quality of environment teacher, who develops his/her ability through avalible courses such as in-service training and communication et al. This study was performed with the questionnaire to 179 teachers who participated in certificate in-service training for [Environment] subjects on winter of '95 and summer of '96. The questionnaire included 28 items, which could be categorized 5 parts : the environmental consciousness of teachers, their awareness of environmental education in schools, the reason of participation, the limits and requirements of learning field, avalible teaching and learning methods. The improvements and suggestions derived from this study are summarized as follows: First, it is necessary to differentiate in-service training concerning environment, because the motive of teacher's participation is diverse and is not always suitable to the purpose of certificate in-service training for [Environment] subjects. Second, the teaching contents and programs of certificate in-service training for [Environment] subjects have to be various according to the characteristics and major subjects of teachers. Third, it deserves special emphasis that the field trips and survey for the experiential study in field is supplemented in the teaching contents and programs of certificate in-service training for [Environment] subjects. Also, it is necessary to strengthen the environmental ethics and philosophy in the teaching contents and programs.
