To investigate the trend of earth science education researches published in ${\ulcorner}$The Journal of the Korean Earth Science Society${\lrcorner}$ during last 20 years, 106 articles were analyzed. The results show that the number of researches in earth science education has increased, especially in recent two years. From the perspective of areas. general earth sciences were studied more than other areas such as astronomy, geology, and meteorology. From the perspective of subjects, students, especially high-school students, were studied more than teachers. From the perspective of research methodology, survey including content analysis of textbooks or curriculum were most preferred. In contrast, literature study were never accomplished. From the perspective of contents, researches of leaching/learning were the most common. It is notable that few studies were about educational assessment or teacher training.

This study was conducted to investigate the weight concerns of female university students living in Jeonju, as well as their control on behavior. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from 285 students. Statistical data analysis was completed using the SPSS v. 11.0 program. The results are summarized as follows: The average weight, height, and BMI of the subjects were 21.43 kg, 161.93 cm, and 19.8, respectively. With regard to body image, most were dissatisfied with their figures, especially the hips and thighs. About 42% of the students estimated their figures as 'slightly fat', while 5.4% stated 'very fat', even though their BMI classified as 'normal'. Four percent of the underweight students described themselves as being 'fatty'. Approximately 93% of the students had strongly pursued weight control, and 45.3% reported wanting to lose about $2{\sim}5$ kg. Almost 73% of the respondents had weight loss experience. The primary reason for weight control was to improve self-confidence. Only 19.6% had succeeded in losing weight, while nearly 48% had stopped dieting. To reduce weight, about two thirds of the students ate less(e.g. no snacks, no sweets). Fifty percent tried to reduce weight by more physical activity(e.g. sports). Television(50.9%), friends(48.4%), and newspapers/magazines(40.4%) were essential sources of pertinent information. In conclusion, the results show that female students in Jeonju have a great interest in weight reduction. Thus, the majority are willing to try several methods for weight reduction, which however, are not promising and not based on a lasting nutritional change. Therefore, it's necessary to increase cooperation among those concerned(e.g. dietitians, teachers, parents, media) and to develop weight-control programs that take into consideration lifestyle and daily habits, as well as combine physical activity, nutrition, and behavioral and personality training.

This study aims to develop artificial intelligence education programs that can be easily applied in elementary schools according to the trend of the times called artificial intelligence. The training program designed the purpose and direction based on the analysis results of the needs of 70 elementary school teachers according to the steps of the ADDIE model. According to the survey, elementary school students developed a machine learning education program to set sound data as the theme of the most accessible in their daily lives and to learn the principles of artificial intelligence in solving problems using sound data in real life. These days, when the need for artificial intelligence education emerges, elementary machine learning education programs that solve daily life problems based on sound data developed in this study will lay the foundation for elementary artificial intelligence education.

Realistic content such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and mixed reality is emerging as an innovative technology in the education field in that it allows people to safely and efficiently experience dangerous, expensive or impossible situations, such as disaster training or space travel. Recently, as government agencies have supported a lot for producing virtual augmented reality contents about education, various educational contents using virtual augmented reality technology have been developed through the Edutech industry. Many virtual augmented reality-based educational contents are being developed, but mixed reality-based educational contents are very limited which could be more effective for education. This study examines the basic method of producing mixed reality educational contents using Hololens and, on the basis of this, it proposes the method for producing scientific experiment contents. Hololens made it possible to share information in real time without a regular desktop PC, and it is effective for teachers to manage and evaluate students in real time.

In this paper, the degree of reflection of SW·AI elements and CT elements was investigated and analyzed for a total of 44 textbooks of Korean, social, moral, mathematics and science textbooks based on the 2015 revised curriculum. As a result of the analysis, most of the activities of data collection, data analysis, and data presentation, which are ICT elements, were not reflected, and algorithm and programming elements were not reflected among SW·AI content elements, and there were no abstraction, automation, and generalization elements among CT elements. Therefore, in order to effectively implement SW·AI convergence education in elementary school subjects, we will expand ICT utilization activities to SW·AI utilization activities. Training on the understanding of SW·AI convergence education and improvement of teaching and learning methods using SW·AI is needed for teachers. In addition, it is necessary to establish an information curriculum and secure separate class hours for substantial SW·AI education.

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effects of an eye health education program on the level of knowledge and eye health practice of middle school students. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted using a pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group non-synchronized design. The study participants were from one middle school first graders in a province of Korea. The experimental group was composed of three classes (76 students), and the control group was composed of three other classes (77 students). Pretests were conducted in June for the experimental group and in August for the control group. The experimental group received an eye health education program developed for this study consisting of four sessions in total, given once a week for 45 minutes per session. The control group was instructed by the school's health teacher in the eye health education included in the existing health education curriculum. Posttests were conducted three weeks after the training in the control group and immediately after the fourth eye health education session in the experimental group. Results: After being instructed in the eye health education program, the eye health-related knowledge (t=9.45, p<.001) and eye health practice (t=2.18, p=.031) of the experimental group participating in the education program were higher than those of the control group. Conclusion: The eye health education program was effective in improving middle school student's level of eye health-related knowledge and eye health practice. School health teachers could implement this program as a part of the standard eye health education for middle school students. The long-term effects of practicing eye health behavior needs to be confirmed in a future study.
