The object of this research provides the empirical case about the clinic as meaning the supplement learning and mentions the necessity in the university mathematics. The mathematics clinic is comprised of the tutoring and the problem solving. The purpose of the tutoring, it does with the main value the interaction learning among members to exceed the individual-centered learning form, is increase the academic achievement. In the case of the problem solving, the goal is to give the motivation that they can solved by oneself. The effects that mathematics clinic reaches to the academic achievement were tested from the operation case of H university. In the results, two-programs were meaningfully improved the academic achievement and particularly this effect was excellent in the students participating two programs altogether. In addition, the problem solving reached the immediate effect on the academic achievement more than the tutoring program.

This study aims to identify the learning behavior patterns recognized by students to find effective tutoring operational methods, and further analyze the impact of learning behavior patterns on academic performance and learning satisfaction. To this end, 105 participants in the tutoring program at D University based in Busan Metropolitan City collected data and conducted descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis according to research problems. First, the study found that students who participated in tutoring had the most environment-dependent and self-taught learning behavioral styles and environment-independent and self-taught learning behavioral style. Second, the correlation between learning behavioral styles and academic achievement and learning satisfaction shows that there is a high correlation between positive and cooperative learning behavioral styles and environment-independent and self-taught learning behavioral styles. Third, regression analysis on academic achievement and learning satisfaction showed that positive and cooperative learning behavioral styles significantly affects learning satisfaction, but environment-independent and self-taught learning behavioral style, environment-dependent and self-taught learning behavioral style, and passive learning behavioral style were not significant. These results suggest that from the school perspective, learning behavior can be recognized as an important factor in students' academic success and failure, so instructors need to check learners' learning behavior patterns and provide appropriate tutoring teaching and learning design plans.

The purpose of this study is to introduce the math-clinic programs which offer to engineering students and to compare the subject satisfaction between participants and non-participants. Five math-clinic programs are operated and 1397 students took part in this study. As a result, the Likert-type scales of satisfaction with three programs; the exercise problems solving class, the tutoring program and the achievement tests, were 4.07, 4.05 and 3.95, respectively(5-point Likert-type scale). And we found that the participants expressed higher subject satisfactions than nonparticipations did.

In many of ITS(Intelligent Tutoring System), they only evaluate student level or simple some student character. We propose student model for considering many student characteristics. Our student model contains student level and student's weak problem type, domain field, problem situation. We can provide optimum problem to individual student by student model.

The first doctoral program for science education was opened on March 1984 at Seoul National University in Korea. As a faculty member of the University, this researcher investigated the status of doctoral program of foreign countries through interview with instractors and students by visitation of some institutes, participation of seminars, observation of tutoring, reading of theses and the related papers, in order to compare them and to design a new one for our purpose. The number of science education doctoral degree holders is estimated about 4000, among them 3000 doctoral degree holders are from USA since Columbia University Teachers College started in 1930s at first, and about 1000 doctors from other mainly European countries including Germany and England since 1970s. This study concentrated to the doctoral program for science education of Columbia University(USA), King's College London(UK), and Monash University (Australia),so that proposed a few aspects of development on doctoral program for science education in Korea.

The phonemic awareness program included construction of 45 activities emphasizing various sounds in speech and letter names using a storybook. The subjects were thirty 1st and 2nd grade low-income(15 experimental and 15 control group) children attending an after-school program in Seoul. Pre- and post-tests assessed children's reading, self-concept, and learning motivation. The experimental group children had rich opportunity to deal with and discuss sounds, syllables, phonemes, and the Korean alphabet names during storybook reading, games, and play over a 12 week period, while the control group children were provided with worksheets, subject tutoring, and homework guidance. Results showed that the phonemic activities were an effective and useful way to enhance children's reading ability, self-concept, and learning motivation.

This paper will discuss the issues in four different small group teaching programs administered by the Seoul National University Medical School, and will address and propose solutions to those issues for improving the effectiveness of the programs. Medical school has a particular educational environment that differs from the rest of the university. Therefore, program managers should develop better models to fit medical school needs by reviewing our practices and planning for improvement. As managers of these programs, the authors interviewed students applying to participate. If our responsibilities for these programs continue for a sufficient period of time and we have a sufficient number of participants hereafter, we will do a survey and generate more reliable conclusions from quantifiable data. However, given that these programs are in their early stages, we present here some introductory remarks on the theory behind the programs and the outcomes we expect. The discussion will define and explain the different needs and roles of each participant (professor, student, and manager) in the program, and will suggest some practical ways for the managers in the programs to make improvements to the existing model so that the enhanced programs can better suit the needs of the medical school.

This case study examined mathematics anxiety of a public high school sophomore who was unable to perform well in mathematics but later overcame his fear of mathematics. In this study, he showed high levels of mathematics anxiety in the assessment tools that evaluate mathematical anxiety factors. Cognitive and behavior treatments were carried out to alleviate his anxiety. First, cognitive treatments that were implemented include: understanding his own problems, writing down his thoughts on a record sheet, and changing intermediate and core beliefs. This paper explored cognitive and affective changes and reactions during the treatment process. Second, behavioral treatments that were conducted include: the divided-page method and peer tutoring. The divided-page technique involves the test subject to write down and solve his problems on a note to see what kind of cognitive and affective changes occur during the process. This paper also explored how Su-chul, an overly competitive student, changed and reacted cognitively and affectively through peer tutoring. The results revealed that Su-chul's exam anxiety, as well as other factors, has decreased. Moreover, he regained his self-confidence by solving math problems that he had felt difficult. His competitive attitude also has turned into a cooperative and thoughtful one.

Automation of programming-error detection is an important part of intelligent programming language tutoring systems. In this paper, a new programming error detection approach for novice programmers is proposed by plan matching and program execution. Program execution result is used to resolve the restricted programming plan representation and to provide a confirming evidence for the plan matching differences. By checking the values of shared variable between the related plans, we can detect the cause-effect relationship between the plans. With this relationship and the test data, we can explain the program's unexpected behaviors according to the bug's cause and resulting effects.
