This study has developed the earth science class model based on flipped learning and analyzed the effects of that model at the elementary pre-teachers' science classes. The model of this study, the material which was consists of all contents and information about classes was offered to learners before science class as a substitute for preceding homework at general flipped learning. In science class, the knowledges which were recorded in materials were explained directly to learners by instructor for 20minutes. So the learners resolved some inquiry questions in materials through mutual debate collaboration with learners in small group. After inquiry questions' resolving, the learner among small group makes a presentation in front of the whole class. At the same time, the instructor evaluated learning action of all small groups' learners during the classes as process evaluation. The final evaluation results of semester were obtained scores of the small group in 14 classes and the achievements of individual portfolio as final exam. The learners were very positive perception to this science class model, why it is helped to concentrate on the class, extended debating and thinking ability. Consequently, the class model of this study is useful to applicate the earth science classes.

This article discusses the innovation activities of firms that aim for system transformation from the perspective of 'Transformative Innovation Policies'. Here, for the sustainable transformation of our society, a firm that finds the 'purpose' of business activities in solving social problems and implements a new business model is defined as a 'transition-oriented firm'. The main characteristics of a transition-oriented firm are examined in terms of 1) transition vision and mission setting, 2) business model innovation for transition, 3) network formation for system transition, and 4) securing legitimacy of transition. And through case studies, the approach, significance, and limitations of the transition-oriented corporate innovation theory are discussed. The case study is from a Eisai Korea, which aims for an integrated prevention, treatment, and care system centered on residents and citizens.

The purpose of this study is to develop and apply an informal engineering education program for engineering education that is realized outside the framework of formal education. To this end, a non-format engineering education program was developed and rationalized, discussing participants' experience in participating in the program. The developed non-format engineering education program was applied to 90 high school learners interested in engineering in a one-night, two-day camp format, and the goal was confirmed through open surveys and in-depth interviews. The goal of the non-format engineering education program is to understand the importance of engineering and engineering design in real life and the principles of engineering design processes, and to use a variety of knowledge and tools to creatively solve engineering problems creatively. In addition, education programs were developed based on the fact that real-life examples allow engineers to understand what they do, design their own careers, and collaborate with colleagues to share various engineering issues and develop communication skills on engineering topics.

This paper explores what we call 'the problem of undone social science' by examining the lack of interests in the social, ethical, and legal issues of synthetic biology among social scientists in Korea. This new field of science, which has emerged in the twenty-first century with the promise of solving future problems of energy, food, and disease in the world, has also created a considerable degree of anxiety over the issues of bioethics, biosafety, and biosecurity. From its beginning, therefore, researchers of synthetic biology in Europe and the U.S. have sought to engage social scientists in their projects. Yet scientists and social scientists in Korea have shown no sign of working together to deal with both potential benefits and risks of synthetic biology. Why this silence? What strategic moves would be needed to overcome the structural barrier for their collaboration? Surveying the diverse methodologies developed during and after ELSI (ethical, legal, social implications) experiments, this paper aims to provide three suggestions that might make possible mutually profitable and continuously stimulating dialogues between the two worlds of science and social science: first, institutionalize the ELSI studies on any newly emerging science and technology of concern; second, explore diverse post-ELSI methodologies experimented elsewhere and develop ones that might be applicable best to the Korean situation; and third and perhaps most important, create an intellectual space and a lawful protection for social scientists to exercise their research freedom at the reasonable level and receive a fair review by their peers, not solely by funding agencies and scientific organizations.

This paper aims at exploring how a high school student is engaged with C computer programming language and explore deep aspects of programming experiences based on video recalled interview as part of portraiture. The single case was selected and several in-depth interviews and video recording were arranged after Oct 2011. The portrait of K reveals interesting strands of his computer programming experiences with his own thinking patterns and exploring ideas for more concrete ways of coding his thinking similar to scientific experiments; ie, design-development-implementation-debugging-revision. Overall, this case illustrates how the inner aspects of subjective programming experiences on the tower of Hanoi were integrated and unified within himself for inner growth. We discussed the student's inner faculties as part of the student's unity and suggested future research direction.

초등학교 학습자를 대상으로 컴퓨터 과학의 원리를 가르치기 위하여 EPL, 로봇프로그래밍, Unplugged Project 등 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 또한 로봇을 활용한 경진대회, 창의 대회 등 교육과정 외적인 부분에서도 활성화되고 있는 추세이다. 하지만 대부분의 로봇, 공학 경진대회는 특정 로봇의 기능 및 사용법, 흥미 위주의 획일적인 내용을 벗어나고 있지 못한 실정이며, 통합적 접근을 했던 기존의 프로그램들은 창의적 문제해결을 목적으로 여러 학문의 융합, 통합을 주장하고 있다. 본 연구에서의 통합은 초등 학습자의 학습으로의 보다 본질적인 접근이 필요하며, 교육과정 전반에 걸친 폭넓은 학습 활동 측면에서 프로그래밍(로봇)의 통합의 필요성을 주장하고 있다. 이제는 프로그래밍(로봇) 학습이 왜 통합 학습으로 교육과정 상에 녹아 들어가야 하는지에 관한 본질적인 논의가 이루어져야 할 시점으로 생각된다. 이 논문의 본문은 크게 두 부분으로 이루어져 있는데 첫째, 초등학교 로봇프로그래밍 교육을 통합적 관점으로 접근했던 기존의 프로그램의 사례를 살펴볼 것이며, 둘째, 초등학교 학습자에게 통합이 어떠한 의미인지를 고찰해 볼 것이다.

Programming education helps learners solve real world problems by applying the principles of computer science. In particular, in the case of object-oriented programming centered around objects or problems that are observed in the real world, learners are able to make the most use of their programming skills in real life. Therefore, in this study, we sought ways to have learners grasp object-oriented concepts in a learner-friendly manner. To this end we conducted an experiment with six students as participants. As a result we could derive two main points. First, the learning tools which can be easily used by learners are required. Second, it is necessary to think thoroughly to learn concepts before implementation of the programming. This study has significance in the sense that it provides a learning method which helps a novice learner to learn the object-oriented programming that he or she feels difficulty to understand.
