We investigated the perception and preferred type of question and analyzed type of questions asked by teachers in elementary science class to identify how teachers' perception of questioning is reflected in teaching practices. We collected the data from questionnaires, deep-interview and audiotaped four classes from grade 3 and six classes from grade 6. The data form deep-interview were analyzed interpretively and Blosser' framework of question was used to analyze questions which teachers used in classes. By interpretation of data from questionnaires, the teachers agreed that questioning affects science class in elementary school. There were a little differences in perceptions of questioning among three teachers. They preferred various types of question rather than a specific type. They didn't have a good understanding of questioning. The result showed that the teachers used frequently cognitive-memory question and convergent thinking question, which belonged to closed questions in their science classes. This didn't accord with their preferred types of question. The causes came from objectives of science instruction, degree of understanding about questioning, preference and confidence for science class. From this findings, we suggested that teachers should be given opportunities to take training courses in questioning in order to use effective questioning in science class.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics and differences of gesture between career teachers and novice teachers in elementary science class. In order to analyze the gesture of elementary science teachers, gesture analysis framework was developed. The teachers who participated in the experiment were 2 beginner teachers and 2 career teachers. We analyzed 'bones and muscles', 'digestion', 'breathing', and 'excretion' of 'body' section in the second semester of 5th grade. The video recording of the class scene with the camcorder was recorded and analyzed by Observer XT. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, the career teacher lessens unnecessary gestures than the novice teacher. During the class, the career teachers lessened the gestures not related to the context of the class. These differences were more prominent in the activities of the group with many unexpected situations than those of the teachers who prepared the class contents. Second, career teachers have more communication control act than novice teachers. Career teachers have often made adjustments to induce learner presentations or control unnecessary utterances. Third, career teachers efficiently interacted with learners using gestures that can enhance communication.

The purpose of this study is to examine what effects the experiment class to stress discussion of small groups in scientific experiment class of the elementary school has on scientific achievement and attitude on the science of the students comparing to the usual scientific experiment class. For that purpose, this study has divided 49 students at the 6th grade of the M elementary school in P City into test groups of 24 students and control groups of 25 students. Classes have been progressed by giving sufficient time to the test groups for discussion by each small groups after experiment while by allowing the control groups to finish the experiment with arrangement of the experiment results. Conclusions of this study include: First, the more familiar the experiment materials are and the easier the experiment procedures are to be operated by the students, the more actively the small group discussion activities have been deployed. It shows that the students need a certain level of background knowledge before experiment for vital discussing activities. Second, it is appeared that the test groups given the scientific experiment class stressing small group discussing activity have significantly high scores comparing to the control groups given the existing scientific experiment class. It shows that the small group discussing activities have effects on promoting understanding of the students on the scientific achievement for the scientific experiment class. Third, it is appeared that the test groups given the scientific experiment class stressing small group discussing activity significantly high scores on attitude about the science comparing to the control groups given the existing scientific experiment class. It is considered that the students could have opportunities to compare their own thoughts with others and to have reflective thought to change their thoughts through the small group discussing activity. As shown above, it shows that the experiment class to stress discussing activities is more effective to increase scientific achievement and attitude about the science than the scientific experiment class to get and arrange the experiment results from the existing experiment classes.

이 연구에서는 코로나19 상황에서 온라인 과학 수업 콘텐츠 개발에 참여한 교사들의 경험과 온라인 과학 수업에 대한 인식, 그리고 교사들이 개발한 온라인 과학 수업 콘텐츠의 특징에 대해 분석하였다. 이를 위해 온라인 과학 수업 동영상을 직접 제작한 10명의 초등 교사를 대상으로 온라인 과학 수업 동영상의 제작 과정과 어려움, 온라인 과학 수업에 대한 인식에 대해 설문 조사 및 심층 면담하였으며, 연구 참여자들이 제작한 온라인 과학 수업 동영상을 분석하여 온라인 과학수업의 특징을 조사하였다. 그 결과 온라인 과학 수업 동영상은 교사가 수업 연구, 각본 작성, 수업 동영상 촬영 및 편집의 전 과정을 구상하고 수업 및 실험과정을 직접 촬영하는 형태로 제작되었거나 전자저작물이나 디지털교과서 등에 음성을 녹음하는 형태로 제작되었다. 연구 참여자들은 제작 시간 부족, 촬영과 편집의 어려움, 오개념 전달에 대한 우려, 기존 자료에 대한 저작권 해결 문제, 외부 공개에 대한 부담 등을 어려움으로 인식하였다. 온라인 과학 수업 동영상 콘텐츠를 제작한 경험이 있는 교사였지만 온라인 과학 수업의 장점에 관해 적극적으로 대답한 연구 참여자는 없었다. 다만 온라인 수업의 특징인 반복 학습의 가능, 수업 시간과 장소의 자유로움, 교사의 수업계획이나 통제의 용이, 시각적 매체 활용으로 수업에 대한 학생의 흥미 유발 등에서 면대면 수업보다 유리함이 있을 것으로 응답했다. 반면에 연구 참여자들은 온라인 과학 수업의 단점으로 학생들의 탐구기회가 줄어들고, 의사소통이나 상호작용이 부족해지는 것을 꼽았다. 특히 이러한 단점들은 온라인 과학 수업의 질 특히 탐구 수업을 어렵게 하는 데 큰 영향을 미칠 것으로 생각했다. 온라인 과학 수업이 면대면 수업을 완전히 대체할 수 없다는 부정적인 견해를 취하는 교사들도 있었지만 여러 교사가 콘텐츠 활용형 온라인 수업 방식을 보완하는 보조적 수업 활동이 제시된다면 온라인 과학 수업과 면대면 수업을 병행하는 방식은 가능할 것으로 인식하였다. 또한 온라인 과학 수업의 도입 단계나 정리 단계에서는 면대면 과학 수업의 과정과 유사하였지만, 탐구 단계와 개념 설명 단계에서는 면대면 과학 수업과 큰 차이를 보였다. 온라인 과학 수업에서는 학생들의 흥미 유발을 위한 여러 방법이 사용되기도 하였지만, 학생의 실험 참여를 유도하지 않는 시범 실험이나 실험결과를 획일적으로 정리하였고 교과서 본문 내용과 개념을 교사가 정리하고 설명함으로써 교사 주도 개념 설명식 수업의 형태를 띠었다.

In this paper, we focused on the problem of evaluating multi-class classification accuracy and simulation of multiple classifier performance metrics. Multi-class classifiers for sentiment analysis involved many challenges, whereas previous research narrowed to the binary classification model since it provides higher accuracy when dealing with text data. Thus, we take inspiration from the non-linear Support Vector Machine to modify the algorithm by embedding dynamic hyperplanes representing multiple class labels. Then we analyzed the performance of multi-class classifiers using macro-accuracy, micro-accuracy and several other metrics to justify the significance of our algorithm enhancement. Furthermore, we hybridized Enhanced Convolution Neural Network (ECNN) with Dynamic Support Vector Machine (DSVM) to demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the classifier towards multi-class text data. We performed experiments on three hybrid classifiers, which are ECNN with Binary SVM (ECNN-BSVM), and ECNN with linear Multi-Class SVM (ECNN-MCSVM) and our proposed algorithm (ECNNDSVM). Comparative experiments of hybrid algorithms yielded 85.12 % for single metric accuracy; 86.95 % for multiple metrics on average. As for our modified algorithm of the ECNN-DSVM classifier, we reached 98.29 % micro-accuracy results with an f-score value of 98 % at most. For the future direction of this research, we are aiming for hyperplane optimization analysis.
