The purpose of study is to examine the effects of the reading discussion-oriented career exploration program for elementary school students on career development and achievement motivation. To achieve this purpose, three fifth grade classes were assigned to an experimental group, comparative group A and comparative group B. Reading discussion-oriented exploration program for the experimental group was conducted for five weeks in ten sessions, the same period of time for comparative group A was given for conducting a career education program and subject studying was conducted on comparative group B. The results of this study, the experimental group applied to the reading discussion-oriented career exploration programs showed a significant increase in their career development compared with the subject studying group. But they did not show a significant increase compared with the career education group. Second, experimental group applied to the reading discussion-oriented career exploration programs showed significant increase their achievement motivation compared with the subject studying group and career education group.

Lip-reading technology that is studied them is used to compensate speech recognition degradation in noise environment in bi-modal's form. The most important thing is that search for correct lips area in this lip-reading. But, it is hard to forecast stable performance in dynamic environment. Used RASTA filter that show good performance to remove noise in the speech to compensate. This filter shows that improve performance of using time domain of digital filter. To this experiment observes performance of speech recognition only using image information, service chooses possible 22 words and did recognition experiment in car. We used hidden Markov model by speech recognition algorithm to compare this words' recognition performance.

In recent decades, analyzing the activities of human brain achieved some accomplishments by using the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) technique. fMRI data provide a sequence of three-dimensional images related to human brain's activity which can be used to detect instantaneous cognitive states by applying machine learning methods. In this paper, we propose a new approach for distinguishing human's cognitive states such as "observing a picture" versus "reading a sentence" and "reading an affirmative sentence" versus "reading a negative sentence". Since fMRI data are high dimensional (about 100,000 features in each sample), extremely sparse and noisy, feature selection is a very important step for increasing classification accuracy and reducing processing time. We used the Fisher Discriminant Ratio to select the most powerful discriminative features from some Regions of Interest (ROIs). The experimental results showed that our approach achieved the best performance compared to other feature extraction methods with the average accuracy approximately 95.83% for the first study and 99.5% for the second study.

The main narrative of Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice deals with a dispute over the matter of bond in regard to moneylending, and its consequences upon the eventual default. Only the clever interference of a lawyer or judge brings the crisis to an end. In solving his dispute over the bond between Antonio, the merchant of Venice, and Shylock, the money lender and a Jew, Shakespeare offers one of the most famous trial scenes in literature. This trial scene presents the art of arbitration by Portia who was disguised as a Doctor of Law and sheds light on the nature of law, justice, equity, and divine law. What one cannot overlook in this trial scene is the importance of reading ability. After all, interpretation is the next stage of reading. Drawing just verdicts and wise arbitration while at the same time deconstructing the implicit violence and incongruity in law is based on ceaseless effort of analytic and creative act of reading.

There are many attempts to transfer many applications from PC to mobile which has small screen, cause of a development of mobile technology. To display the whole information of the PC on the tiny screen, it makes many Horizontal Scroll, Horizontal Scroll in mobile screen makes people to miss where they are reading easily and such a frequent error makes readability of the information in mobile screen low. We suggest a Line Marker to help readability of the mobile screen high. This study shows the relationship between the conditions of Line Marker such as fixed or moved or not exists and the factors of the reading time and satisfaction.

In this paper, we present measurement method of the amount of used piped water and the communications environment for automatic piped water meter reading. The existing piped water meter reading which is carried out by the human in person by monitoring the amount of use and recording make the problem of an error of the figure and being short of staffed to carry out piped water meter reading. To solve the existing problem in this paper, the amount of used piped water is converted into data type by Photo Interrupt Sensor, and IEEE 802.15.4 Protocol is used to confirm the measurement in remote place.

This article examined relationships between selected variables, such as demographic background, care, treatment variables, environmental characteristics, and patient's daily behavior and mood change. Relationship were determined between independent variabltherapeutic-rapeutie approach, demographic data, environmental management approach-,and dependent variable-patient's daily behavioral and mood change. 35 patients selected within some criteria in a psychiatric ward, were obserbed during 5 weeks by use of Wyatt's Behavior & Mood Rating Scale ac-cording to the object of the study. At the same time, the frequence of the care and treatment were collected. Criteria for sample selection and independent variables as an influential factor to the patient behavioral change, based on a literature revienw and clinical experiences. Pearson's correlation and multiple regression analysis were used to determine the influfntial factors to the patient behavioral change. Systematic reading (r=.8324), Psychiatrist's individual interview (r=.5764), tranquilizer (r=.3441) and hospitalization processing date (r=.4143) were related with patient's behavioral change. That is these 4 variables can be said to influence to the patient's behavior and mood. A stepwise multiple regression analysis of the effect of the independent varibles of systematic reading, psychintrists individual interview, tranquilizer and hospitalization processing date on the dependent variable, patient's behavioral change was carried out. Systematic reading with on R²of. 69 revealed to be the main influential factor to the patient's behavior and mood change, as the next factor psychiatrist individual interview. A total inclusion of these factors revealed a 73% prediction for the patient's behavior and mood change. But the most influential factor was the interaction of the systematic reading and psychiatrist's individual interview.

The 2009 revised curriculum has been revised to increase the time allocated to creative discretion. Accordingly, in many schools, discretionary activities have been replaced by reading and essay writing. However, these activities do not differ from existing classes and student's interest in those activities is minimal. This study has applied two kind of the AR program, which is designed and implemented using Smartphone in the classroom, to increase student's interest. A browser-based AR, created by Junaio and QCAR-authored Smartphone-based AR fairy tale book, are easy to use in class by the students themselves. We applies to Fourth grade student in reading education this AR programs. As a result of test, the students in actual reading classes responded that their interest in the lesson and their understanding of fairy tales has increased.

This study examined the differences in young children's reading results to two types of picture books, focusing on the features of pop-up books. Children's reading time, interests, responsiveness, comprehension, and recall were compared for pop-up books and regular books with the same story. The results of this study were as follows. First, young children showed similarly high interests in both versions. Second, children from the pop-up books group read for a longer time, and showed a higher responsiveness level in focusing on the illustrations than their counterparts. Third, children who read regular books displayed better comprehension and recall than children who read pop-up books.

After-school activities were examined for 449 rural children in first through seventh grades. Childrens engagement of after-school activities were significantly different by child and family characteristics, especially childrens age and behavior control ability. Findings showed a decline in amount of time spent studying and reading and a raise in going to a game-room. Childrens school achievement, emotional and social development were also differed by a range of after-school activities. Children spent more time in studying and reading showed higher grades, happiness, school life. Teachers reported greater aggressive behavior and less adjustment of school life among children participating more in game related activities and hanging out. Watching TV, doing house chores and visiting friends were not variables which showed different outcomes.
