The crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant changes in education systems worldwide, including in Korea. Due to COVID-19's social distancing policies, the education system was suddenly switched to distance learning, resulting in many problems in primary schools without preparation. The purpose of this study was to investigate a teacher's awareness of science education techniques, responses to issues in science classes, including inquiry activities, advantages and disadvantages, and roles after experiencing distance learning. Survey and focus interviews were conducted for primary school teachers who had previously participated in distance learning, such as online content classes and real-time interactive classes. The study findings showed three conclusions: 1) Primary school teachers conducted one-way and interactive lectures in online classes. It is vital to improve a teacher's digital literacy to improve other teaching methods such as investigation and discussion in online classes. 2) Primary school teachers acknowledged the challenges of field feedback, inquiry item preparations, and safety in inquiry activities of science classes, by providing individual experimental packages and videos and using online discussion and feedback among teacher - student and student - student interactions. 3) Primary school teachers recognized that various types of classes using IT devices and individualized learning were possible as advantages of distance learning. As for disadvantages, it was acknowledged that inquiry activities, cooperative learning, immediate feedback, and interaction among students were challenging. Furthermore, learning gaps were wider in distance learning.

현대의 수학과 과학기술을 지배하고 있는 논리는 모든 것을 참과 거짓으로 명확하게 구분하는 아리스토텔레스의 이치논리이다. 그러나 우리는 명확하게 참과 거짓으로만 구분할 수 없는 애매함 속에서 살아가고 있다고 해도 과언이 아니다.(중략)

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of NIE(newspaper in education) program in improving students' environmental knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Whereas 92 tenth-grade girls were controlled as a lecture-type group, who were taught mostly with science textbooks, 95 tenth-grade girls were experimented as an NIE group, who actively utilized newspaper into classroom discussion. After 12 units were conducted in each group, girls of NIE group improved significantly more than those of lecture-type group in environmental knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Such effectiveness of NIE learning commonly appeared throughout all achievement levels, except that environmental knowledge of lower-achieved girls did not show significant differences between two groups. This result proposes the need for active consideration of NIE learning in developing new environmental education program.

초고속 인터넷의 보급으로 인터넷이 너무나 다양하고 친숙한 관계로 우리에게 다가왔으며 휴대폰이나 PDA의 등장으로 무선인터넷에 관심을 많이 가지게 되었다. 그러나 무선인터넷 기술을 우리 생활에 유익한 도구로 활용하기 위해서 다양한 연구활동이 이루어지고 있으나 교육적 도구로 활용하기 위한 연구는 아직까지 미비한 편이다. 본 연구는 무선인터넷 기술을 교육 목표 달성을 위한 도구로 활용하기 위해서 사이버 강의 시스템을 구축하였다. 사이버 강의 시스템의 특징은 첫째, 이동통신 단말기의 특성을 고려하여 시스템을 설계하였다. 둘째, 유 무선인터넷 사이트를 연계하여 정보를 전달하고 관리하게 하였다. 셋째, 다양한 언어로 제작하여 각기 다른 회사의 언어에 지원할 수 있게 제작하였다 넷째, 영어학습, 국어학습, 과학학습을 할 수 있는 정보제공 사이트를 설계하였다.

In the near future, as artificial intelligence and computing network technology develop, collaboration with artificial intelligence (AI) will become important. In an AI society, the ability to communicate and collaborate among people is an important element of talent. To do this, it is necessary to understand how artificial intelligence based on computer science works. An algorithmic education focused on problem solving and learning is efficient for computer science education. In this study, the results of an assessment of computational thinking at the beginning of the semester, a satisfaction survey at the end of the semester, and academic performance were compared and analyzed for 28 students who received algorithmic education focused on problem-solving learning. As a result of diagnosing students' computational thinking and problem-solving learning, teaching methods, lecture satisfaction, and other environmental factors, a correlation was found, and regression analysis confirmed that problem-solving learning had an effect on improving lecture satisfaction and computational thinking ability. For algorithmic education, if you pursue a problem-solving learning technique and a way to improve students' satisfaction, it will help students improve their problem-solving skills.

The purpose of this study was to explore science teacher's epistemological understanding of science and science teaching and learning, from the perspective of inquiry as the process of scientific knowledge building. Three science teachers participated in this study. The data were collected from individual in-depth interviews and classroom videotaping. The results show a case involving coherent and consistent data. It showed that the teacher's epistemological understanding of science and science teaching and learning consisted of five categories: scientists doing science with scientific thinking; scientific thinking as the process of knowing; science learner in the learning process of scientific thinking; science teacher as a man/woman with good understandings of science; and teaching and learning as the process of knowing science. Based on the results, discussions and implications about science education and science teacher education were presented.

학교 교실에서의 수업 활동 중 가장 주된 활동은 언어적 의사소통이며 대부분의 지식 전달이 교사의 언어 활동을 통해 이루어 지고 있다. 그리고 교사의 언어적 의사소통의 순서와 구조는 효과적이고 효율적인 학습에 중요한 의미를 가지므로 이를 조직적으로 분석 평가할 필요가 있다. 따라서, 이 연구는 교실에서의 교사 언어 행동의 구조를 분석 연구할 수 있는 방법론적 기초를 마련하고자 Anderson 의 역동적 구조 이론 (Theory of Kinetic Structure) 을 소개하고, 그의 정량적 분석 방법을 한국어에 적용 할 수 있도록 수정하였으며, 교사의 실제 강의 내용을 분석하였다. 분석에 사용한 자료는 50분 동안 진행된 고등학교 1학년 생물 강의를 녹음한 것으로 소화에 관한 내용이었다. 강의 내용에서 역동적 구조의 정량적 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 강의는 316개의 담화단위 (discourse units) 로 구성되었으며. 261개의 어소 (verbal elements)가 동정되었다. 전체 강의에서 37개의 secondary span 이 동정되었고 이는 6개의 primary span으로 구분되었다. 전체 강의에 대한 평균 기본계수(mean fundamental coefficient, $\bar{B}_1$)는 0.26으로 낮은 수준의 연관도 (commonality )를 보였으며, 평균 가중 기본계수(mean weighted coefficient, $\bar{B}_2$)의 값은 0.88이었다. 전체적으로 이 강의는 중 내지 하 구조 (moderate to low structure)를 갖고 있으며, 높은 진행도 (high progression, $\bar{D}_s$=1.07)를 보였다.

Development and evaluation of distance learning for the gifted students in science and mathematics In this study, we developed and administrated the distance learning for the gifted students in science and mathematics, and analysed their responses. To do this, four types of teaching programs - lectures using program for distance learning, practice activities using simulation program, tasks solving programs based on discussions, and problem solving activities - were developed and students responses were analysed in eight area - stimulus, difficulties, structure, learning circumstances, involvement, interaction, learning outcomes, comparison with other learning -. As results, it was found that many students responded positively and thought programs helped their creativity, logical thinking, intelligent ability, and information searching ability. Students preferred practice activities based on appropriate guidances to lectures providing detailed explanations. And interaction could be stimulated by inducing discussion.
