This study investigated differences in beliefs about English learning of 286 EFL college students and 52 English teachers in Korea. Data was collected using Horwitz's Beliefs About Language Learning Inventory and compared between students and teachers in beliefs. To address the research questions, the data were analyzed through descriptive statistics including frequencies, factor analysis, MANOVA, ANOVA, t-test, and reliability coefficients. The results showed four factors in student beliefs: Difficulty of learning English, nature of learning English, importance of correctness in learning English, and motivation and perceived importance of learning English. Clear differences were found in students and teachers' beliefs in English learning aptitude and importance of translation, error correction, and grammar rules. A few belief differences were also identified between Koreans and native-speaking English teachers related to the importance of vocabulary learning, pronunciation, and cultural knowledge. The findings of the study indicated that background variables such as gender and major field of study have an effect on student beliefs about L2 learning. The present study also provided pedagogical considerations to reduce mismatch between students and teachers beliefs and to improve the L2 planning and instruction.

Purpose: An emerging trend in Asian higher education is English-medium instruction (EMI), which uses English as the primary instructional language. EMI prepares domestic students for international leadership; however, students report difficulty in learning, and educators have raised questions concerning the effectiveness of EMI. The flipped learning model (FLM), in which lecture and homework activities for a course are reversed, was applied to an English-medium course offered by a college of nursing in Korea. The aims of this study were to: 1) revise an existing English-medium nursing course using the FLM; 2) explore students' learning experiences and their acceptance of the FLM; and 3) identify key factors in the success of FLM. Methods: We used a descriptive, cross-sectional, mixed-methods design and the participants were students at one nursing school in Korea. A series of course development meetings with faculties from the nursing school and the center for teaching and learning were used to develop the course format and content. We conducted course evaluations using the Flipped Course Evaluation Questionnaire with open-ended questions and focus group interviews. Results: Students (N=75) in a 15-week nursing course responded to a survey after completing the course. Among them, seven students participated in one of two focus groups. Overall, students accepted and favored the flipped learning strategy, and indicated that the method enhanced lecture content and their understanding of it. Factors associated with effective instruction included structured monitoring systems and motivational environments. Conclusion: The FLM requires sufficient preparation to facilitate student motivation and maximize learning outcomes.

본 연구는 학습자질문중심학습법과 온라인 퀴즈기반학습법을 생리학과 약리학 교과목에 순차적으로 적용하고 학습에 대한 효과를 비교하고자 간호학과 학생 총 173명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 전체 학생들의 학습동기는 8주차에 비해 15주차에 유의하게 낮아졌고(T=2.843, p=.005), 두 학습법을 적용한 순서에 따라서도 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 약리학 교과목 학습자들의 학습만족도는 온라인 퀴즈기반학습법만을 적용하였을 때 학습자질문중심학습법을 적용하였을 때보다 유의하게 높았다(t=2.184, p=.003). 본 연구 결과, 기초간호학교과목에 학습자질문중심학습법과 온라인 퀴즈기반학습법 중 어느 것이 더 효과적이라고 말할 수 없으며 순차적인 병용효과도 없으므로, 향후 수업 설계에서는 한 과목에 단일 학습법을 적용하거나 두 가지 학습법을 처음부터 병행하여 사용할 것을 제안한다.

본 연구는 교사 질문, 말하기 차례 규칙, 학생 발화 사이의 관계를 파악하고자 수학 교실 내의 언어적 상호작용을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 같은 학교에 근무하고 있는 세 명의 초등학교 교사들(1학년 교사 2명과 2학년 교사 1명)의 수학 수업을 대화분석 기법을 사용해서 분석하였다. 각 교사들의 수업은 일 년에 걸쳐 총 3회 관찰되었다. 분석 결과, 교사가 열린 질문(예를 들어 "왜" 그리고 "어떻게" 질문들과 "동의합니까" 그리고 "동의하지 않습니까" 질문들)을 사용하고 비전통적인 말하기 차례 규칙(교사발문-학생답변-교사 피드백; Mehan, 1979)을 사용하였을 때는 학생들이 자신의 생각을 정당화하고 다른 사람의 생각을 반박하기 위해 교실 담화에 보다 적극적으로 참여하여하는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 교사가 닫힌 질문(예를 들어 "무엇" 질문들)을 사용하고 전통적인 말하기 차례 규칙을 사용하였을 때 학생들은 정답을 말하는 것에만 관심을 갖고 짧은 발화만을 사용하는 것으로 드러났다. 본 연구의 시사점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교사들은 효과적인 수학-대화 학습공동체를 만들기 위해 열린 질문을 사용하고 비전통적인 말하기 차례 규칙을 사용해야 한다. 둘째, 교사들이 발화기법에 관한 실질적인 지식을 얻을 수 있도록 교육 행정가와 수학 교육자들이 지원해야 한다.

The purpose of this study is to suggest how to go about teaching and learning secondary school algebra by analyzing problem-solving ability and problem-solving process through algebraic reasoning. In doing this, 393 students' data were thoroughly analyzed after setting up the exam questions and analytic standards. As with the test conducted with technical school students, the students scored low achievement in the algebraic reasoning test and even worse the majority tried to answer the questions by substituting arbitrary numbers. The students with high problem-solving abilities tended to utilize conceptual strategies as well as procedural strategies, whereas those with low problem-solving abilities were more keen on utilizing procedural strategies. All the subject groups mentioned above frequently utilized equations in solving the questions, and when that utilization failed they were left with the unanswered questions. When solving algebraic reasoning questions, students need to be guided to utilize both strategies based on the questions.

The purpose of this study is to explore directions for improvement of teaching at college of engineering based on analysis of differences from course evaluation of students and instructors. Data was collected from 86 instructors' ratings on courses and their 3004 students' ratings on courses at college of engineering in a two-year, a three-year college and a University from 2010 to 2013. The results of the survey indicate significant differences in the statistics from the several questions between the instructors and the students as well as between the course in a two-year, a three-year college and in a University. First, instructors' self evaluation of the course is higher than students' satisfaction ratings of the course on the average. Instructors' self evaluation are high on the questions 'The subject was proper for the course', 'The course provided the latest theory and trend of the field', and 'Fairness and objectivity about the exams and the assignments'. Also, the difference between Instructors and students on the questions is significant in the statistics. The professor must make sure that students know well how to organize the course content and the method for feedback to test result and homework. Second, instructors have higher satisfaction ratings on the six questions and students have higher satisfaction ratings on the one question('Make students participate in the class effectively') at a two-year and a three-year college. However, students have higher satisfaction ratings on the three questions('Make students participate in the class effectively', 'Concern about students' learning process', and 'Use of E-learning and media equipments') and instructors have higher satisfaction ratings on the one question. It means instructors at a University feel pressure on a teaching and they are unsatisfied with their teaching skills. Third, the result of comparing six parts of the questions shows that students' satisfaction ratings are higher on 'Students participation' and 'Application of media equipments' parts whereas instructors' self evaluation are higher on 'Exams and assignments' part. Fourth, the question 'Make students participate in the class effectively' is significant in statistic based on comparison of instructors and students, and comparison of in a college and a University. Students' satisfaction ratings are higher than instructors' self evaluation.

The purpose of this research is to provide useful data in forming sound scientific concepts by investigating elementary students' non-scientific concepts related to their concepts of biological adaptation, and by analyzing the general inclinations and causes of some misconceptions. Twenty-four objective questions were designed to be given to 5th and 6th grade elementary students in order to investigate their concepts of biological adaptation. According to the test results, they formed scientific concepts in most questions. But they appeared to have many misconceptions in some parts which should be guided by the teacher's additional explanations rather than by the education curricula's focus. There are some cases where the 6th grade students had more misconceptions than the 5th grade students who were not systemically taught the concepts of biological adaptation, for the reasons of strengthening or maintaining the misconceptions by confusing the contents of learning. Male and female students have different scientific concepts of different questions according to their interest and attention. Therefore, it is necessary to develop various teaching-learning data which can help the teachers' additional explanations about the concepts of biological adaptation and invoke students' interest and attention, and to seek appropriate measures to form sound scientific concepts among teachers as well as students.
