Comparative studies on mathematical modeling cognition feature were carried out between 15 excellent high school third-grade science students (excellent students for short) and 15 normal ones (normal students for short) in China by utilizing protocol analysis and expert-novice comparison methods and our conclusions have been drawn as below. 1. In the style, span and method of mathematical modeling problem representation, both excellent and normal students adopted symbolic and methodological representation style. However, excellent students use mechanical representation style more often. Excellent students tend to utilize multiple-representation while normal students tend to utilize simplicity representation. Excellent students incline to make use of circular representation while normal students incline to make use of one-way representation. 2. In mathematical modeling strategy use, excellent students tend to tend to use equilibrium assumption strategy while normal students tend to use accurate assumption strategy. Excellent students tend to use sample analog construction strategy while normal students tend to use real-time generation construction strategy. Excellent students tend to use immediate self-monitoring strategy while normal students tend to use review-monitoring strategy. Excellent students tend to use theoretical deduction and intuitive judgment testing strategy while normal students tend to use data testing strategy. Excellent students tend to use assumption adjustment and modeling adjustment strategy while normal students tend to use model solving adjustment strategy. 3. In the thinking, result and efficiency of mathematical modeling, excellent students give brief oral presentations of mathematical modeling, express themselves more logically, analyze problems deeply and thoroughly, have multiple, quick and flexible thinking and the utilization of mathematical modeling method is shown by inspiring inquiry, more correct results and high thinking efficiency while normal students give complicated protocol material, express themselves illogically, analyze problems superficially and obscurely, have simple, slow and rigid thinking and the utilization of mathematical modeling method is shown by blind inquiry, more fixed and inaccurate thinking and low thinking efficiency.

The purposes of this study were to measure university academic achievement based on gender. We analyzed university academic achievement based on gender. The subjects for this analysis were 322 students from freshmen to seniors who received grades in their first semester in the computer engineering department at a university located in the Chungcheong area. The major findings of this study were as follows. First, the average university academic achievement was 3.01. Second, the university academic achievement of female students was higher than that of male students in the entire curriculum, liberal arts, and major subjects. Students showed higher academic achievement when their grades rose. Male students showed higher rate of rise when their grades rose compared to female students. This paper proposes that it is necessary to develop programs to further adaption to university life for males. Since male students showed significantly lower university academic achievement, various programs like counseling and mentoring are needed.

Background: Women make up half of the world's population, and comprise 20% of the world's one billion smokers. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of smoking among female medical students in comparison to female non-medical students, and to assess the importance of medical education and knowledge in decreasing the prevalence of smoking among female university students in Saudi Arabia. Method: We used a self-administered questionnaire to collect cross-sectional data from a randomly selected sample of 320 female students attending King Abdul-Aziz University, Jeddah. Medical students comprised 50% of the sample. Results: A total of 310 students (96.9%) completed and returned the questionnaire. The prevalence of smoking was higher in non-medical female students (4.2%) compared to medical female students (0.32%) (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence of smoking is low among female medical students compared to female non-medical students, presumably because of their awareness, level of education, and knowledge of the risks to health associated with smoking. Our study highlights the need for increased knowledge, health education, and awareness of the risks of smoking to reduce smoking among female university students.

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the health beliefs and knowledge about breast self examination (BSE) and the actual BSE habits of female university nursing students. Materials and Methods: The study sample recruited 189 nursing students who agreed to participate in the study. Descriptive statistics, the Mann-Whitney U test, one way ANOVA test, t test and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyse the data. Results: 83.1% of nursing students had knowledge about breast cancer (BC) and BSE in the study. BSE was practiced by 70.4% of nursing students; 21.8% of them performed BSE regularly. A fear of developing BC was an incentive for 85% of nursing students to practice BSE. The confidence subscale scores in the third and fourth years of students' university education were higher, and the barrier subscale score in these same years was lower than their first years of study. Perception of benefit of nursing students experiencing breast-related discomfort exerted a positive effect. Nursing students with lower perception of barriesr performed BSE regularly. In conclusion, nursing students' years of university study, breast cancer knowledge, history of breast cancer in family, and BSE practice status were factors affecting their health beliefs. Conclusions: These study results indicate the importance of developing education and training programs which educate not only nursing students but all women about breast cancer, its symptoms, the importance of early diagnosis and of regular BSE.

이 연구의 목적은 고등학생과 대학생의 글쓰기 교육에 대한 인식을 조사하는 것이다. 이 연구는 광역시 소재의 일반계 고등학교의 자연 계열 318명과 전국 3개 대학에 재학 중인 공학 계열 학생 447명을 대상으로 이공 계열 글쓰기 교육의 현황과 글쓰기 능력에 관련된 설문조사를 실시하였다. 이 연구에서는 이효녕 외(2009)에 의해 개발된 이공계열 글쓰기 설문지를 사용하였으며, 설문조사에서 수집된 자료는 SPSS 18.0 윈도우용 프로그램을 이용하여 다중응답 빈도분석, 기술통계, 독립표본 t검정, 일원분산분석 등을 실시하였다. 고등학생과 대학생의 글쓰기 교육에 대한 기초 인식 조사 결과 고등학생이 대학생보다 글쓰기의 필요성을 상대적으로 적게 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 고등학생이 대학생보다 글쓰기에 관한 어려움을 더 적게 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 글쓰기 교육을 이수한 경험이 있는 대학생의 이수과목은 대부분 기초 글쓰기 과목이고 이공 계열 글쓰기에 대한 과목은 거의 이수하지 않았다. 공학 계열 대학생의 전공별 글쓰기 교육의 활성화를 위한 기초 조사에서 각 전공별로 학생들이 요구하는 글쓰기 교육의 수준이 달랐다. 글쓰기 교육의 전반적인 필요성에서 화학공학 계열이 가장 높았고 기계공학 계열과 전자공학 계열 순으로 나타났다. 고등학교와 대학에서의 글쓰기 교육에 관한 연구는 글쓰기를 가르치는 교사나 교수에 대한 연구, 글쓰기 교육 내용과 교육 방법, 그리고 대학의 전공별 글쓰기 프로그램 개발과 같은 연구로 확장되어야 한다.
