Two biology modules were developed previously for the purpose of improving creativity and scientific thinking of secondary school students. A hypothetical-deductive experimental procedure was reflected in the module when students themselves can perform a series of activities of making hypothesis and designing an experiment to solve the questions. They followed a series of scientific processes to determine some characteristics regarding plant pigments and the transport process of materials in living organisms. Four classes of 9th graders in'S' Science High School were divided into the experimental and the control group. The same contents of the modules were taught to the control group by the traditional experimental way. The students' creativity, scientific thinking, scientific inquiry skill and knowledge achievement were examined before and after the interventions. As results, the experimental groups showed more significant improvement on the areas of the students' creativity, scientific thinking, scientific inquiry skill and achievement than the control groups. Results indicated that the specially designed modules in terms of hypothetical-deductive experimental procedure were effective to improve science high school students' creativity and scientific thinking abilities.

서답형 문항은 학생들의 종합적인 사고능력을 판단하는데 매우 유용하지만 채점할 때, 시간과 비용이 매우 많이 소요되고 채점자의 공정성을 확보해야 하는 어려움이 있다. 이러한 문제를 개선하기 위해 본 논문에서는 서답형 문항에 대한 자동채점 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 크게 언어 처리 단계와 채점 단계로 나뉜다. 첫 번째로 언어 처리 단계에서는 형태소 분석과 같은 한국어 정보처리 시스템을 이용하여 학생들의 답안을 분석한다. 두 번째로 채점 단계를 진행하는데 이 단계는 아래와 같은 순서로 진행된다. 1) 첫 번째 단계에서 분석 결과가 완전히 일치하는 답안들을 하나의 유형으로 간주하여 각 유형에 속한 답안의 빈도수가 높은 순서대로 정렬하여 인간 채점자가 고빈도 학생 답안을 수동으로 채점한다. 2) 현재까지 채점된 결과와 모범답안을 학습말뭉치로 간주하여 자질 추출 및 자질 가중치 학습을 수행한다. 3) 2)의 학습 결과를 토대로 미채점 답안들을 군집화하여 분류한다. 4) 분류된 결과 중에서 신뢰성이 높은 채점 답안에 대해서 인간 채점자가 확인하고 학습말뭉치에 추가한다. 5) 이와 같은 방법으로 미채점 답안이 존재하지 않을 때까지 반복한다. 제안된 시스템을 평가하기 위해서 2013년 학업성취도 평가의 사회(중3) 및 국어(고2) 과목의 서답형 문항을 사용하였다. 각 과목에서 1000개의 학생 답안을 추출하여 채점시간과 정확률을 평가하였다. 채점시간을 전체적으로 약 80% 이상 줄일 수 있었고 채점 정확률은 사회 및 국어 과목에 대해 각각 98.7%와 97.2%로 나타났다. 앞으로 자동 채점 시스템의 성능을 개선하고 인간 채점자의 집중도를 높일 수 있도록 인터페이스를 개선한다면 국가수준의 대단위 평가에 충분히 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the state of cooking activities at home and at school among the elementary school 6th graders in Gyeongbuk province. For 'interest in cooking', 86.9% of the subjects answered 'very interested,' and the answers were significantly different according to sex(male 45.6%, female 77.8%, p<0.01). Above 70.0% of the subjects answered that they could cook by themselves and the responses were significantly different according to sex(male 35.3%, female 66.7%, p<0.01). The children had experiences of chopping(64.8%), slicing round(62.3%), cutting dice(62.3%), cutting julienne(53.3%), cutting diagonally(45.1%), slicing semicircle(34.4%), and cutting paysanne(22.1%). 93.4% of the subjects had cooking experience at home and most parents(95.1%) were positive to children's cooking at home. The reasons for cooking at home were 'like to cook'(55.3%), 'to satisfy hunger'(17.5%), 'to eat foods that I want'(14.0%), etc. The only 10.7% of the subjects answered 'difficult' or 'very difficult' for the cooking classes at school. The 62.3% of the subjects have cooked the foods again at home that they learned at school, and the responses were significantly different according to sex(p<0.05). The foods that the children wanted to cook at school were pizza, spaghetti, Tteokbokki, hamburgers, etc. The children answered that they had difficulties in 'seasoning'(34.4%) and 'cleaning up after cooking'(21.5%). What the children wished about the cooking class of their schools included 'to cook more often'(35.8%), 'to cook more diverse foods'(29.7%), 'to have the school equipped with cooking tools and facilities'(14.8%), etc. Therefore, the cooking classes for the elementary school students need to be planned considering these results about children's cooking abilities, skills and demands.

The purpose of this study was to survey the students' career choice related to science. Important factors of career choice were identified through factor analysis. 'Perception of career related to science', 'preference for science learning' and 'participation in science-related activity' were three main factors of science-related career choice. Students' responses to the three main factors were compared according to their career choice, grade and gender using ANOVA. Regression analysis was adopted to find out the relative importance among the three main factors. The subjects were 947 grade 6, 9 and 11 students in Seoul. Numbers of boys and girls in each grade was almost same. The questionnaire was developed to know the factors of students' science-related career choice after preliminary research and literature survey. The ratio of science-related career choice was not high (26%). Students' responses to and the relative importance of the three main factors differed with the grade and gender. From the results, making students have preference for science and giving them more opportunities of science-related activity is more important than making them have positive perception of science-related career. It is required to make a material for science career education considering the differences of age and gender using this study results.

Large-scale international comparison studies for a decade have shown Korean students' negative affective constructs and engagement. In addition to this general finding, this research aimed to provide details in Korean students' affective constructs and engagement. With the latent profile analysis, we found five groups of individuals showing qualitatively different characteristics in their affective constructs and engagement. Particularly, it is required to pay more attentions to two groups with relatively negative views on engaging teaching in mathematics lessons. The findings in this research suggested that different approaches could be required to improve affective constructs and engagement in each group. This necessitated further research on achievement and influential factors on each group's characteristics of affective constructs and engagement.
