Two conceptually thorny issues in IT governance definition and understanding are examined and discussed. It is argued that the traditional IT governance definition, which defines governance in terms of the content of enterprise IT activity, is prone to logical inconsistency and indeterminacy. A new objectives-bound definition of IT governance is proposed as a remedy to the problem. It is proposed that the essence of the objectives-bound IT governance lies in making enterprise IT activity explicit, formal and subject to external scrutiny in its effort to achieve the effectiveness, transparency and accountability of IT. A conceptual apparatus called IT activity axes is employed to characterize and distinguish the different approaches to IT governance definition and understanding. It is suggested that IT governance can be defined using a simple frame of reference with logical consistency and coherence. The theoretical and practical implications of the IT governance definition are discussed at the end.

This research is a study on student's understanding fundamental conception of mathematical curriculum, especially in geometry domain. The goal of researching is to analyze student's wrong conception about that domain and get the mathematical teaching method. We developed various questions of descriptive assessment. Then we set up the term, procedure of research for the understanding student's knowledge of geometry. And we figured out the student's understanding extent through analysing questions of descriptive assessment in geometry. In this research, we concluded that most of students are having difficulty with defining the fundamental conception of mathematics, especially in geometry. Almost all the students defined the fundamental conceptions of mathematics obscurely and sometimes even missed indispensable properties. Prior to this study, we couldn't identify this problem. Here are some suggestions. First, take time to reflect on your previous mathematics method. And then compile some well-selected questions of descriptive assessment that tell us more about student's understanding in geometry.

1999년 7 월부터 시행된 "전자거래기본법"은 전자문서와 전자거래의 효력을 법적으로 인정하고 있다. 그러나 본 법률이 제정될 당시 UNCITRAL의 전자상거래 모델법(1996)을 그대로 답습하여 영미 법계와 달리 대륙법계인 우리 나라의 실정에는 맞지 않는 조항이 포함되고 법률의 체계도 기본법 체계라고 보기에는 어려운 법률제정체계 문제점도 등장하고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 전자문서의 개념과 데이터, 기록물 등의 다른 개념과의 관계 재정립을 통한 전자문서의 정의재조명과 동법에서의 "전자거래" 개념의 해석을 통한 전자거래 개념의 발전방향을 살펴본 후 현재 동법과 전자서명법과의 관계해석을 통해 법제정 추진체계 및 방향에 대하여 검토하였다. 전자문서와 관련해서는 기존의 문서개념과 기능을 생각하건대 현재 각종 법률에서 언급되고 있는 전자문서의 개념은 제한적으로 해석되어야 한다. 문서라는 개념을 넘어서는 새로운 개념도입이 필요하다면, 디지털컨텐츠의 포함한 전자적 기록 내지 전자적 매시지라는 개념도입이 불가피하다. 그러나 이러한 방식은 재산권을 표상하는 정보(컨텐츠, 화폐가치의 정보 등)와 기존의 문서와 서면을 대신하는 정보를 혼합시켜 이해하게 만들어 오히려 해석상 혼란을 가중시킬 수 있다. 따라서 기존의 문서나 서면을 대체하는 '전자문서'라는 개념은 그대로 사용하되, 기타 정책목적상 필요하다고 판단되는 디지털 컨텐츠, 화폐가치를 표상한 정보(전자화폐, 전자자금 정보 등) 등은 개별법률에서 이에 관한 정의를 하고 규율을 하는 것이 바람직할 것이다. 전자거래와 관련해서는 본 개념을 전자문서와 관련시켜 파악해서는 안된다는 것을 전제로 강학적 의미로 전자거래의 해석부분은 이해를 하되, 특정한 법률에는 그 법률제정목적에 맞는 전자거래의 개념정의를 통해 법률제정 내지 개정목적을 달성하면 될 것이다. 전자거래를 포괄하는 법률은 가능하지도 않고 이것이 가능하다 하더라도 결국 포함되어야 하는 전자거래 관련 규정을 선별하는 것도 쉽지 않을 것이다.

This study aimed to analyze the evolution of general ideas concerning the element and the atom. In the scientific viewpoint, the modern idea of the element has been variously revised by the ancient Greeks, Boyle-Lavoisier, and Dalton. The definition of the atom was confused with that of the element from the ancient Greecian era to Lavoisier's era. The definition was also changed by Dalton and Rutherford. An analysis of the definitions of element and atom as presented in science textbooks for secondary school students and in general chemistry textbooks revealed that these definitions from diverse eras are confusing and inadequately explicated. The definition presented in one textbook was contradictory to the definitions in other textbooks. This tendency has been sustained in the textbooks from the 4th to 6th science curriculum. Therefore, we need to clarify the definitions of element and atom in order to help the students gain a better understanding of these scientific concepts.

The importance of students' precise understanding of mathematical definitions, formulas, and theorems can not be underestimated. In this survey research, we attempted to evaluate students' understanding of the concepts of five topics -limit, continuity and intermediate theorem, derivative, application of derivative and integral. On the basis of the research result, this paper suggests that we need to 1) be more inventive and speculative in making test problems, 2) explain the examples and counter-examples more concretely, 3) stress and repeat the basic concepts on the stage of introducing new concepts, 4) develop more effective problems for the measure of students' understanding of mathematical concepts, 5) use developed problems in actual teaching.

The purpose of this study is to encourage the role of domain to consider the teaching of the concept of functions in modeling real situations. To do this, it is analyzed that how to introduce the concept of functions and linear functions in textbooks treated in the 1st grade and the 2nd grade of middle school. This study also reviewed the role of domain in representational activities for modeling real situations using linear functions. In these reviews, it found that many textbooks do not consider the domain in the equations of functions and these graphs and several text books used linear functions for modeling real situations which are not represented by linear functions contextually. It is concluded that the domain of function is an important concept that will be considered any representational activities for functions.

지식 정보의 확산에 따라 기존 전문분야 용어집에 수록되지 않은 용어의 수가 폭발적으로 증가하고 있다 이에 따라 용어집을 자동으로 구축하는 작업이 필요하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 의학분야 코퍼스에서 주어진 전문용어에 대한 정의문을 자동으로 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 우선, 정의문의 구문적 패턴과 용어의 어휘구성 패턴을 이용하여 용어의 상위개념을 추정한다. 상위개념별로 구축된 특성 어휘 목록을 이용하여 구문적 패턴으로 뽑힌 문장에 등장하는 어휘의 적합성 여부를 판단하여 정의문을 추출한다. 실험 결과 코퍼스에 정의 정보가 있는 48개의 용어에 대하여 71.43%의 정확률을 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of concept formation between conflicted case and non-conflicted case as a method of learning science concepts. This study consists of 8 classes in 5th and 6th grade of elementary school children's in Kyoung-Buk, which were divided into conflicted group and non-conflicted group. The research procedure is as follows : first, two groups were asked the introducing problems-one was asked the conflicting problem, the other was asked the non-conflicting problems. Futhermore, the incorrect-answered students of conflicting problems were classified into conflict group am the correct-answered students of non-conflicting problems were classified into non-conflict group. Secondly, the demonstration and picture presentation about the introducing problems were carried out. Thirdly, the researcher introduced scientific concepts to the students. Afterwards, posttests, made up of the same items, were presented to the students-three times-posttest, delayed posttest(one week), second delayed posttest(one month). Finally, the degree of concept formation between the two groups was compared and analyzed by these results.

인공지능 분야에서는 합의된 개념을 정의하고, 개념과 개념사이의 관계를 표현하여 인간과 시스템이 지식을 공유하는 것으로 온톨로지를 정의하고 있다. 현재까지 영상이해를 위해 온톨로지를 설계하고 이용하는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 기존의 영상이해에 관한 연구는 개념적인 연구에 그칠 뿐 구체적인 방법을 제시하지는 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 온톨로지로 표현한 지식에 근거하여 영상의 처리, 분석 해석 과정을 통해 영상을 이해하는 영상이해 시스템의 프레임워크를 제안한다. 영상이해 과정은 i)특정 부야의 지식을 온톨로지로 표현하고, ii)영상 처리 및 분석 과정을 통해 영상을 구성하는 객체들의 속성을 추출하며, iii)온톨로지 추론을 통해 객체의 속성으로부터 객체를 정의하여 영상을 해석한다. 그리고 제안한 프로세스에 기반 하여 영상이해 시스템을 구축하고 특정 분야에서의 실험을 통하여 제안된 시스템의 효용성을 확인한다.

This paper examines how Nietzsche, criticizing anti-naturalist philosophies, reformulated concepts of nature and human nature, and revaluated them from the perspective of naturalism. Especially, it focuses on his task for naturalistic ethics to naturalize nature and to place man back into nature. This paper also tries to reinterpret his attempt to transfer the concept of justice from the metaphysical realm to the naturalistic one, which seems to give some important insights to develop theory of environmental justice, while pointing out some limitations in his naturalistic concept of justice.
