It would have a trouble to communicate mathematically without an appropriate use of mathematical language. Therefore it is necessary to form mathematics classroom culture to encourage students to use mathematical language precisely. A four-month teaching experiment in a 4th grade mathematics class was conducted focused the accurate use of mathematical language. In the course of the teaching experiment, children became more careful to use their language precisely. The use of demonstrative pronouns such as this or that as well as the use of inaccurate or wrong expressions was diminished. Children became to use much more mathematical symbols and terms instead of their imprecise expressions. The result of the experiment suggests that the culture that encourage students to use mathematical language precisely can be formed in elementary mathematics classroom.

This study is to implement a model of CPC-mentoring program based on the mentoring theory and research environment analysis as well as to present the operation case of teaching and learning in colleges. Major research results should use the practical research methods utilizing the statistical program in order to verify the effectiveness of the program of CPC-mentoring program by comparing the before with the after of running the CPC-mentoring program of the research objects, comparison group (61 people) and experiment group (33 people). After running the CPC-mentoring program, whether there was a certification's acquisition or not of the comparison group and the experiment group, a statistically significant difference between the comparison group 34.3% (21) and the experiment group 72.7% (24), (p<0.05) was shown. The goal of the students participating in the CPC-mentoring program was to help one another in order to obtain certification. moreover, by engaging in mutually developing human relationship activities thru various methods, such as adaptation of college life, development of sociality, graduation, etc., good cooperative relationships with one another as well as further development of the relationship was formed. CPC-mentoring program is neither doing only people that want nor being effective for people only that want. A successful matching will naturally lead to all success since mentoring is human relationships is the misunderstanding. The role of a mentoring coordinator(professor) for the operation of a successful CPC-mentoring program and for the application method of detailed CPC-mentoring program was set. In addition, by considering the connectivity with the counseling guidance (shared and individual guidance) of students, which is the characterization direction of technical department of the college, it is expected to make a positive contribution if utilized in a multilateral manner.

This paper proposes the physical human-robot interaction method that controls the robot arms using ITO touch panel sensor as the skin of robot. To implement physical human-robot interaction, the method of using the force/torque sensor and the method of using tactile sensor created by arranging small element type of sensor have been studied. However, these sensors have the pros and cons in terms of price and performance. This study aims to demonstrate the economy of element type sensor and the accuracy of force/torque sensor through experiment by proposing the method of physical interaction using the touch panel as the skin of robot, and by constructing overall system. The experiment was carried out for the method of controlling the robot arm by installing end-effecter and the method of controlling robot arm by creating the gesture with reference point on the touch panel. Through this experiment, the possibility of teaching control using the touch panel was confirmed.

Some teachers do not regard the computation of the sum of the angles of a triangle by using a cut-and-paste or paper-folding method as providing a proof that the sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to two right angles. Some even think that this way of working is not mathematics but more like an experiment in physics. Some see the method as no better than measurement of the angles by a protractor. The author will examine this issue in the teaching and learning of school geometry and more generally as a specific example from the perspective of HPM (History and Pedagogy of Mathematics).

The centroid of triangle is physical property but almost mathematics teachers do not teach centroid by the help of experiments an so they have misconception on principle of centroid. In this paper we investigate whether teachers have made an experiment on centroid of triangle, and we check up on the level of understanding on centroid for mathematics teachers. We introduce the method of teaching centroid and study the process of generalization about centroid of triangle for gifted students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the internal factors whether teachers execute experiments at the science classes in the elementary school. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were performed with 9 elementary school teachers who have served for more than three years. In-depth interviews were performed individually and all the interviews were recorded. Data sources were analyzed by grounded theory. The results were as follows: The internal factors that they did experiments at the science classes were science teaching faiths in experiment, self confidence in experiment, interest in science. and the internal factors that they did not experiment at the science classes were lack of science content knowledge, lack of science education knowledge, memory of failure at experiment, and so on. The investigation results imply inquiry activities should be more strengthened in elementary teacher education program and pre-service teacher curriculum. And it needs to give a materials of receiving information and guidance detailed about the experiments.

In this research, we had two experiments. In the first experiment we focused on the comparison of loaming between two groups of hearing impaired students (multimedia training group and traditional print-based method group). The results from the first experiment indicated that there was no numerical difference in test scores between the two groups of students but the students enjoyed learning with computer. We then carried out the second experiment. This time, we focused more on measuring the qualitative nature of the learning using multimedia technology. The results of the second experiment indicated that the two methods of teaching and learning affected students similarly since the average scores of both groups showed no statistically significant difference. About 89% of the students in the second experiment enjoyed learning from the CD-ROM. This result was based not just on the CD-ROM Life in Saskatchewan, but included any kinds and subjects of CD-ROM used in the classroom. Although multimedia training is as good as, but no better than, the traditional print-based method, multimedia can be used as a valuable supplement in adaptive technology.

This study examines whether the reinforcement theory could be effectively applied to teaching assistant robots between a robot and a student in the same way as it is applied to teaching methods between a teacher and a student. Participants interacted with a teaching assistant robot in a 3 (types of robots: positive reinforcement vs. negative reinforcement vs. both reinforcements) by 2 (types of participants: honor students vs. backward students), within-subject experiment. Three different types of robots, such as 'Ching-chan-ee' which gives 'positive reinforcement', 'Um-bul-ee' which gives 'negative reinforcement', and 'Sang-bul-ee' which gives both 'positive and negative reinforcement' were designed based on the reinforcement theory and the token reinforcement system. Subjective impressions and preferences were measured according to the types of robots and the types of participants. Participants preferred the positive reinforcement robot most, and the negative reinforcement robot least. Regarding the number of stimulus, in case of the negative reinforcement robot for honor students, the less the stimulus is, the more positive the impressions toward the robot are. The findings demonstrate that the reinforcement interaction is important and effective factor which determines children's preferences and impressions for teaching assistant robots. The results of this study can be implicated as an effective guideline to interaction design of teaching assistant robots.

The purpose of this study was to develop teaching-learning plans for the 7th grade technology-home economics classes, applying situated learning theory. In addition, the effect of developed teaching-learning plans were examined, in terms of students' perception and attitude toward clothing habits and the degree of satisfaction with the lessons. In order to carry out the research, the teaching-learning plans for the 3 lessons on "clothing and self-expression" unit were developed. Experimental study was done at a middle school in Seoul to examine the effect of the teachig-learning plans developed based on the situated learning theory. Two classes taught with the developed teaching-learning plans served as a experiment group, and another two classes taught with traditional lecture-based plans served as a control group. As a result, teaching-learning plans developed based on situated learning theory had a positive impact on students' satisfaction with the lessons and the perception and attitude toward clothing habits.

The deviant behaviors on cyberspace in Korea are increased recently because of the unbalanced development between the social ethics and the technological improvement on information and communication technology. To overcome this, educations on information and communication ethics are executed in school. However most of the educations is to deliver the knowledge on the disfunction of informationization and rules of netiquette without the analysis of the psychological characteristics on the cyberspace. Therefore, educations on information and communication ethics, in which the changes of social behaviors and value attitude are essential, is ineffective by making the students as passive and enervated users. In this research, we developed a teaching-learning model for cultivating consciousness of information and communication ethics by the establishment of ego identity on cyberspace and then proved the effectiveness by the experiment in school. Students can raise their abilities on active dealing with the given situation and context according to this teaching-learning model.
