In this study, relationships between student the cognitive affective characteristics and conceptual understanding from individual computer-assisted instruction were investigated. Tests regarding field dependence-independence, learning strategy, self-regulated ability, visual learning preference, goal orientation, self-efficacy on ability, and computer attitude were administered. After having been taught by means of a CAl program, a conception test on molecular motion was administered. It was found that student conceptual understanding was significantly related to field independence, learning strategy, self-regulated ability among the cognitive characteristics and visual learning preference, goal orientation, self-efficacy on ability among the affective characteristics. Multiple regression analysis of the cognitive characteristics on conceptual understanding found that field dependence-independence was the most significant predictor. Self-regulated ability and a deep learning strategy were also found to have predictive power. Lastly, analysis of the affective characteristics, visual learning preference and self-efficacy on ability exposed them to be significant predictors of student conceptual understanding.

The effects of three teaching models were compared in this research. One of those is concept change model, another is concept change model based on students learning motivations, the other is traditional teaching method based on science textbooks. The subjects of this research were the 8th grade students of Korean middle school. They were divided into three groups, and tested learning motivations. All of the three groups improved their learning motivations and concept understanding by the classes. Especially, the group of concept change model based on students learning motivations represented most effective improvement of learning motivations. The concept change teaching model and concept change teaching model based on students learning motivations are more effective in concept understanding than traditional teaching method based on textbooks. The students who have high learning motivations improved their concept understanding by the classes of concept change model based on students learning motivations. The students who have low learning motivations improved their learning motivations by the classes of concept change model based on students learning motivations also.

Differentiation with integration is an important subject which is widely applied in mathematics, natural science, and engineering. Derivative is an important concept of differentiation. But students don't understand its concept well and concentrate on acquiring only the skill to solve the standardized calculus problem. So they are poor at understanding of the concept of differentiation. In this study, after making a survey of differentiation on college students, we try to analyze errors which appeared in solving differentiation problem and investigate mathematics process of limiting process inherent in the derivative and historical development about derivative. Thus, we try to analyze the understanding of differentiation and present the results about this.

The purpose of this study is to examine the misconception profiles of the scientifically-gifted and non-gifted children in terms of basic physics concepts and to compare them in terms of the types of differences in misconception as well as in their understanding of the concepts themselves. The subjects of this study were 75 scientifically-gifted children attending the Educational Center of Gifted Children in DNUE and 148 non-gifted children in elementary schools in Daegu city. For the purposes of this study, the basic concepts of physics (heat, electromagnetism, force, and light) which should be learned in an elementary school were selected with a review of related previous research and with an analysis of the 7th science curriculum. Next, a questionnaire was made which was made up of 20 multiple choice statement based items. Analysis of the results of the statement sections in the test, it was hoped, would reveal the difference between the scientifically-gifted and the non-gifted children's understanding, while the responses in the multiple choice items would suggest the differences between the two groups in terms of the misconceptions regarding physics concepts. The results of this study are as follows: First, although both the gifted and non-gifted children showed a low level of understanding of the concepts of heat, electromagnetism, force, and light, the gifted children' level of understanding of those physics concepts was proved to be significantly higher than the non-gifted, so it seems that the scientifically-gifted children have fundamentally understood the concepts in physics and have a higher level of understanding of them. Additionally, both the scientifically-gifted and non-gifted children' level of understanding of all the concepts was lower in the order of electromagnetism, heat, force, and light. This shows that both the scientifically-gifted and the non-gifted children have no difference in the level of understanding of any specific physics concept, but have similar levels of difficulty in every concept. Second, both the scientifically-gifted and non-gifted children showed similar types of misconceptions. However, the scientifically-gifted children had fewer misconceptions than the non-gifted. We suggest that scientifically-gifted children's misconceptions were not fixed yet, so there remained a possibility of them being corrected easily with appropriate instruction.

본 연구는 지역명 범주에 속하는 용어들의 개념적 특성을 분석하고, 이를 토대로 다른 범주와의 관련도를 파악하여 지역명 범주 용어들을 중심으로 관계 속성들 사이의 논리적 연관성을 부여할 수 있는 모형 도출에 기반이 되는 기초 연구이다. 지역명 범주 용어 중 국가명에 한정하여 분석한 결과, 국가명 개념 속성 중심으로는 계층 구조 관계의 지역명 범주 용어들끼리 연관이 높으며, 전체 범주 용어들의 개념 속성 중심으로는 지역명 범주 용어가 지리적 위치로서의 의미로 주로 쓰이나, 행위의 주체 또는 객체의 의미나 시대의 개념으로도 많이 활용됨을 알 수 있었다. 국가명이 참조되는 개념 속성과 연관되어 활용되는 관계 속성의 경우의 일부는 참조하는 주요 개념 범주와 연관 관계를 토대로 논리적 의미 관계를 생각해볼 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This research aims to build a concept map reflecting gifted elementary students' perception on fun factors of the classes for the gifted. Data for this research was gathered through brainstorming of 80 students currently attending classes for the gifted. 10 of them were selected as focus group for classification and evaluation, and 140 gifted-class students were asked of the fun factors for level of agreement after concept map analysis. Results of the research were, first, 46 final statements about fun factors which are categorized into 6 sub-categories ('the gifted class teacher's encouragement and feedback', 'confidence and chance', 'teamwork and intimacy with gifted friends', 'fulfilling, beneficial, and rewarding feeling', 'new and special experiments', 'qualitatively different class level and learning environment'). Second, the gifted students showed highest level of agreement on 'new and special experiments' category among the 6 sub-categories. Implication of this research on the field has been discussed.

생산 시스템은 일반적으로 규모가 크고 복잡하며 동시 발생적인 특성을 가지는 경우가 많다. 이러한 특징은 시스템의 행태를 사전에 분석하고 시뮬레이션하기 위한 모델링에 많은 어려움을 가져오게 한다. 본 논문은 이러한 어려움을 해결하기 위하여 객체지향 페트리네트를 이용한 생산시스템 모델링 및 분석 도구를 제사한 것이다. 기본적인 구조는 페트리네트를 객체의 개념으로 구성하는 것이다. 객체의 개념으로 페트리네트를 구성하고 시스템의 행태는 객체간의 메시지 교환과 객체내의 행태로 표현된다. 시스템 분석에 있어서는 객체간의 메시지 전달관계와 객체내의 행태 분석 등이 가능하다. 대상 시스템이 객체의 클래스 개념으로 구성되기 때문에 복잡도가 많이 감소될 수 있다. 특히 본 논문에서는 상속성의 개념을 객체 지향 페트리네트에서 어떻게 구현할 것인가에 대한 방법과 분석 방법이 제시되었다.

식품의 관능검사는 인간의 의식과 식품간의 반응결과를 객관적으로 나타내는 방법으로 수치, 언어적 묘사, 도표 등의 표현법을 사용하고 있으며 검사 요원들 간의 오차를 발생한다. 이 오차를 줄이기 위하여 통계 및 심리학적으로 접근하여 해결을 시도해 오고 있으며 오차를 심리적 잡음 (psychological noise)이라고 주장되고 있다. 식품의 기호도는 감각신경세포에서 전기적 신호로 전환되어 뇌에 전달되고 의식의 분석과 해석을 거쳐 얻어지는 것이므로 전기적 신호처리가 포함된다. 그러나 현재의 관능검사 방법들은 시간의 함수관계를 중시하고 있지 않다. 감각신경의 신호 전달체계의 유사성을 바탕으로 관능검사과정에 시간함수를 도인하는 개념이 요구된다. 시간을 개입하는 방법론으로 의식과 식품간의 일어나는 순차적 또는 병열적 행동과 의식체계를 분석하고 시간인자의 중요성을 부각시켰다. 시간함수의 도입방법으로 관능영향인자 표의 구성하고 bar-code를 생성하는 프로그램과 파형곡선으로 전환하는 개념을 제안하였다.

In this study, the influences of the context of discrepant events on the conceptual change process using cognitive conflict strategy were investigated in terms of students' cognitive and motivational variables such as cognitive conflict, situational interest, attention, effort, conceptual understanding. A preconception test was administered to 536 seventh graders. A test of response to a discrepant event and a situational interest questionnaire were then administered. The context of discrepant events, either scientific or everyday, was randomly presented to the subjects. After learning the concept of density, the tests of attention, effort, and conceptual understanding were administered. The reponses of 194 students who had been found to possess the target misconception were analyzed. The results revealed that the scientific-context discrepant event induced higher cognitive conflict than everyday-context one. The context of discrepant events, however, did not show significant correlations with situational interest, attention, effort, and/or conceptual understanding. The result of path analysis indicated that the context of discrepant events both directly influenced cognitive conflict and indirectly influenced conceptual understanding via cognitive conflict.
