The German society for promotion of EIA was founded in 1987 with the aim to support the introduction of EIA in Germany. The society with its center in Hamm where there is a plenty collection of literature, studies and further scientific sources does an enormous work in EIA-consulting all over the country. This work practically is done without any governmental support, only by private activities. The EIA society is structured within 9 regional as well as 19 specialized working groups and consisits of about 1,000 members. The unification of Germany in 1989/90 also influenced the development in this field, of course. While in the former Western part of Germany the already existing environmental administrations were able to react on the EIA-law of 1990 with their long time experiences, in the Eastern part the corresponding structures must be built up newly from the beginning. Since 1990 a great number of interested people also from Eastern Germany became numbers of the EIA-Society. By them an additional pool of knowledge and activity was brought into the society. This also applies for methods and means of EIA which were developed in the East during the time ago independently.

중년여성들은 여성성의 상실과 함께 신체적, 정신적 변화를 겪게 되며, 자녀의 성장과 독립으로 돌봄과 양육의 역할이 감소되면서 심리적으로 공허함을 느끼기도 한다. 이 여성들은 자신의 역할감소에 따른 상실감과 공허함을 자신의 여가생활을 위해 자신의 가치관과 신념을 유지하는 계기로 이해하고 있다. 이에 중년여성들은 공예활동체험을 통하여 인간과 인간의 소통을 통한 사회적 관계에서 이루어지는 관계형성과 자아실현의 기회로 인식하여 우울감이나 공허한 마음과 같은 중년의 위기에 나타나는 부정적 감정을 극복하고 자아존중감과 사회적 지지를 확립하고 있다. 우리는 이 연구에서 공예활동의 체험요소가 중년여성의 자아존중감과 사회적 지지에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 공예활동의 체험요소를 독립변수로, 자아존중감과 사회적 지지를 종속변수로 하는 연구모형을 설정하였다. 연구결과 교육적 체험, 오락적 체험, 일탈적 체험은 자아존중감에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있으나 심미적 체험은 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하고 있다. 그리고 오락적 체험, 심미적 체험은 사회적 지지에 유의한 영향을 주지만 교육적 체험, 일탈적 체험에는 유의한 영향을 주지 못하였다. 따라서 중년여성의 감각과 감성의 변화에 영향을 줄 수 있는 체험공간의 환경적 특성인 미학적 요소와 시각적 요소를 살릴 수 있는 콘텐츠와 교류할 수 할 수 있는 출발에서 접근할 수 있도록 공예체험에 대하여 제도적으로 지원하는 방안이 제공되어야 한다. 그리고 공예활동으로 궁극적인 삶에 변화를 주는 요인을 고려하지 않은 한계가 있어 웰빙과 관련된 변수 등을 도출하여 새로운 모형을 제시할 것을 제안하고자 한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the concern of the primary school teachers and the teaching situation about the environmental education through questionnaire survey on the effective environmental education. The results of questionnaire were analysed and discussed to provide the effective teaching method for the environmental education. The result of this study is as follows. 1. It was found that teachers want to teach environmental lessons as a special subject, and the content of the environmental lessons in textbook was not enough in quantity, the living waste was the most serious ploblem. Owing to the lacking in materials for the lectures on environmental education, most teachers collect the material depending on the mass communication. Also they were more interested in the environmental lessons rather than the other lessons in textbook. But because of the lacking in administrative assistance, they have difficulty in conducting the effective environmental education. 2. The teaching method of the environmental education in most primary schools was a all together-type lecture in classroom. Owing to conducting the environmental education for the knowledge than the action through the extra activity, it was difficult to expect the effect of the environmental education. Also the rate of using the reflection materials which can be improved the studying effect was very low. 3. For the effective environmental education most teachers wanted the spot learnings and the case studies and teacher education and training to get an special knowledge for environmental education. The effective evaluation method for children's environmental education is to present the results by environmental experiences and practices and to formulate a system education is organized for the effective management and activation of environmental education. 4. By practising the seasonal spot learnings, students need to change of learning method and to realize the importance of environment through own self-experiences. 5. In the future, it is desirable that researching of an environmental education is offered the effective practising teaching method which is improving the development of customs and functions, cultivation of the sense of value, ability to solve the problem, to determine the intention as well as the survey on the real situation and the consciousness about environmental education.

This study is an ethnographic case study aiming at understanding the environmental education (EE) classes of 'Discretionary Activity' which has recently been introduced into Korean middle school curricula. To show the characteristics of the classes, researcher described the phenomena unique to two schools. Two middle school teachers were included in this study as research participants. Qualitative approaches were used to understand the status quo of school environmental education, teachers's perspectives on EE and their expectations for learners' changes. Data were gathered using the methods of participant observation during two school terms and in-depth interview with two teachers and nine students. Ethnographic analysis/interpretation methods such as domain analysis were used to analyze the data. To verify the research methodology and conclusions, triangulation, members checking and peers debriefing were used. Research questions emerging through the circulative research process include 1) what are the teachers' perspectives on EE and how do the teachers' perspectives affect their EE teaching? 2) what are the teachers' expectations for learners' changes and how are teachers/researcher able to perceive learners' changes? Two research participants have different life experiences and perspectives on environment and EE. The perspectives had influence on the selection of the contents and the styles of their teaching. Teachers' expectations for learners' changes were also different according to the styles of the teaching.

Background: Hibernating bats exhibit ubiquitous winter activity in temperate zones, but there is considerable between- and within-species variety in their intensity and purpose. Bats may fly during winter for sustenance or travel to other hibernacula. This study compared inter-regional variation in the winter activity of the greater horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus ferrumequinum). We predicted that weather and hibernacula-environmental conditions would influence winter activity patterns. Results: Winter activity patterns differed between regions. In the Anseong area, we confirmed movement inside the hibernaculum, but in Hampyeong, we observed movement both inside and between hibernacula. The two regions differ by $4^{\circ}C$ in average winter temperatures. Anseong experiences 22 days during which average daily temperatures exceeded $5^{\circ}C$, whereas Hampyeong experienced 50 such days. During the hibernating period, bat body weight decreased by approximately 17-20% in both regions. Conclusions: Ambient temperatures and winter-roost environments appear to be behind regional differences in hibernating bat activity. As winter temperatures in Korea do not favor insect activity, feeding probability is low for bats. However, bats may need to access water. At Anseong, underground water flows inside the hibernaculum when the reservoir outside is frozen. At Hampyeong, the hibernaculum does not contain a water source, but the reservoir outside does not freeze during winter. In conclusion, water-source location is the most likely explanation for regional variation in the winter activity of hibernating bats.

Out-door learning activity in environmental education has been emphasized as an effective method in environmental education since the aims of environmental education emphasize students'value, attitude, actions as well as knowledge. In order to implement successfully out-door learning activity in environmental education classrooms, teachers'perceptions to environmental problems and experiences at fields are essential. An environmental education network among the metropolitan city and provincial office of education, nongovernmental organization of environmental movement and education and university was established and a teachers'in-service training program of out-door learning centered environmental education was implemented. The program was developed in order to 1) connect environmental education with the regional environmental situations, 2) provide teachers with opportunities to participate in an out-door learning program, and 3) train teachers to be environmental education leaders of out-door learning. For evaluation of the program, responses of participants to questionnaire were analyzed. Most of teachers responded that their perception of environment was changed positively after the participation in the program. This study suggested that a future planning of a teachers'in-service training program of out-door learning centered environmental education should be developed in considerations of arranging enough hours for out-door learning at regional environmental sites, applying performance assessment, providing teachers with multiple opportunities with programs in different levels including enriched programs, and establishing an environmental education network among nongovernmental organization of environment movement and education, university, and local offices and department of education.

This study is a qualitative case study aiming at understanding and finding out influential factors and barriers when school teachers choose Environmental Education as their Creative Discretionary Activities. To do this, this study focuses on the process of two teachers' choices of the Creative Discretionary Activities in two other elementary schools. The results of this research are follows. Two teachers' choices are affected by several influential factors, divided into external factors and internal factors. External influential factors include culture of school and education, media, chief education officers, parents and school. Internal influential factors are teachers' value and philosophy of education, teachers' experiences, teachers' capacity. These influential factors' forces aren't the same with each other. These influential factors, are influenced by educational, social, national, local, and school level indicated by Taylor et al's (1974) classification criterion. Especially, however, Korea's particular educational environment focusing on university entrance examination strongly affects teachers' choice. School factors also has a big strong effect on teachers' choice. Among others internal actors are the most serious influential factor affecting on teachers' choice.
