Stommel(1948)은 서안경계류의 원인이 베타효과($\beta$-effect)라 일컫는 코리올리 파라미터(f)의 위도 변화 때문인 것을 밝혔다. 서안경계류는 고등학교나 대학 교양에서 중요하게 다뤄지고 있다. 학생들은 보통 이론 수업만으로 서안경계류의 발생 과정, 이에 관련된 코리올리 힘, 베타효과 등을 이해해야 한다. 때문에 서안경계류와 관련된 실험이 있다면 이를 이해하는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다. 또한 연구에서 검토한 6종의 고등학교 지구과학 2 교과서는 서안경계류를 본문과 더불어 삽화로 설명하고 있다. 그러나 이 중 3종의 교과서 삽화에서는 서안경계류의 발생 원인을 코리올리 힘만으로 지적하고 있다. 따라서 일부 학생은 서안경계류의 원인을 코리올리 힘으로 오해 할 수 있다. 위와 같은 이유로 우리는 서안경계류가 코리올리 힘의 작용과 베타효과에 의해 나타나는 것을 쉽게 확인 할 수 있는 실험 장치와 다양한 실험 방법을 개발하였다. 개발한 실험 장치는 직육면체의 수조와 회전 속도를 조절할 수 있는 테이블로 구성된다. (Fig. 1) 이와 같은 회전수조는 대기와 해양의 움직임을 실험실에서 모사하기 위해 자주 사용되었다(Beardsely 1969, 소선섭 등 1995; 1997). 우리의 수조는 경사진 바닥과 평평한 바닥으로 두종류를 제작하였다. 바닥이 경사진 수조는 베타효과를 구현하기 위한 것이다. 반시계 방향으로 회전하는 테이블은 중위도 어떤 위도에 접하는 가상의 평면이 지구 자전에 의해 회전하는 것을 나타낸다. 그리고 수조 상부에는 회전원판을 물에 접하여 시계방향으로 회전시킨다. 회전원판은 북반구 중위도 해양에 작용하는 바람 응력을 나타낸다. 우리는 테이블의 회전유무와 바닥의 경사유무에 따라 4개 실험을 수행하였다(Table. 1). 각 실험에서 물을 채운 수조를 원판에 올려놓고, 회전원판을 작동시킨 후 20분 동안 그대로 두어 수조안의 미세규모의 운동을 최소화 시킨 후 잉크를 떨어뜨리고 관찰하였다. 그 결과 실험 SB_f1은 베타효과와 코리올리 힘이 존재하여 서쪽 경계에서 좁고 빠른 흐름을 만들고 수조의 중간 부근에서 경계를 벗어나 동쪽으로 향하고 있다. 이 모습은 실제 해양의 서안경계류의 분리 현상과 비슷하다. FB_f1은 코리올리 힘만 존재하여 서쪽 경계에서 좁고 빠른 순환과 경계를 벗어나 동쪽으로 분리되는 흐름이 나타나지 않으며 전반적으로 크게 회전하는 모습을 보인다. SB_f0은 바람의 응력만 존재하는 경우로 잉크가 확산하는 모습을 보이며 나선팔의 모양으로 회전하면서 넓게 퍼져나간다. FB_f0의 모양도 이와 비슷하게 나타난다. 실험 SB_f1과 FB_f1을 비교하여 서안경계류는 코리올리 힘의 위도변화 효과인 베타효과가 있을 때 발생한다는 것을 알 수 있다(Fig. 2). 이 결과는 "단순히 코리올리 효과에 의해 서안경계류가 발생한다"는 생각을 바꾸게 할 것이다. 덧붙여 서안경계류 분리와 수조 바닥의 경사의 관계를 살펴보기 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 경사가 더 급하면 ($\alpha=20^{\circ}$) 서쪽 경계를 벗어나는 지점이 좀 더 북쪽에 나타났다. 현재 서안경계류는 개발한 실험 장치와 방법을 학교 현장에 적용하여 그 교육적 활용 가치를 평가하는 연구를 진행하고 있다.

Group-based learning is known to be an effective means to improve scholastic achievement in online learning. Therefore, there are some previous researches for the group-based learning. A lot of previous researches define factors for grouping from the characteristics of classes, teacher's decision and students' preferences and then generate a group based on the defined factors. However, many algorithms proposed by previous researches depend on a specific class and is not a general approach since there exist several differences in terms of the need of courses, learners, and teachers. Moreover it is hard to find a automatic system for group generation. This paper proposes a grouping system which automatically generate a learner group according to characteristics of various classes. the proposed system automatically generates a learner group by using basic information for a class or additional factors inputted from a user. The proposed system defines a set of rules for learner grouping which enables automatic selection of a learner grouping algorithm tailored to the characteristics of a given class. This rule based approach allows the proposed system to accommodate various learner grouping algorithms for a later use. Also we show the usability of our system by serviceability evaluation.

This study aimed to explore the patterns of college students' dialogic argumentation in the context of nanotechnology issues, and to compare these patterns based on their idiocentrism and allocentrism. Nanotechnology represents the characteristics of socioscientific issues in that it is widely used in various fields, but at the same time, it includes the likelihood of negative effects. 33 college students who enrolled in science-related course participated in this study. Participants were divided into idiocentric groups and allocentric groups based on the INDCOL scores, and they participated in group discussions on nanotechnology. All discussions were audiotaped and analyzed using the framework of discourse clusters and schemes. Results showed that participating students engaged in dialogic argumentation with the process of exchanging of individual perspectives, exploration of different perspectives, and coordination and negotiation; specifically, they spent most of their time in exploring different values and perspectives regarding nanotechnology. Results also indicated the differences in discourse clusters and discourse schemes between idiocentric and allocentric groups. Allocentric groups more often negotiated to settle on a group decision than idiocentric groups did, and discourse schemes in their negotiation process were slightly different from the ones in idiocentric groups.

In this study, we investigated the preservice elementary school teachers' self-images of science teaching and the factors influencing their formation by using Draw-A-Science-Teacher-Test Checklist (DASTT-C). One-hundred eighty-two sophomores and 183 seniors were selected from the departments of science and non-science education in three national universities of education. DASTT-C was administered to the sophomores at the beginning of the Spring Semester, and to the seniors at the beginning of the Fall Semester. Analyses of the results revealed that the self-images of science teaching of the seniors were more student-centered than those of the sophomores in the department of science education. However, there was no significant difference between the DASTT-C scores of the sophomores and the seniors in the department of non-science education. Many sophomores answered that the main factors affecting their self-images of science teaching were teaching-learning experiences in elementary, middle and high schools. However, many seniors cited the content and teaching methods in science education courses as well as direct or indirect teaching-learning experiences in teaching practices regardless of the departments. Educational implications of these findings are discussed.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the outcome of 'The second plan for identifying and nurturing of science-gifted student' and investigate the implications for the third plan. 'The second plan for identifying and nurturing of science-gifted student' was made for the promotion of science-gifted education from 2013 to 2017. This plan is composed of three strategies with 25 sub-projects: a systematic identification of science-gifted students with potential, an activation of creative and integrated science-gifted education and an establishment of optimized science education supporting system. We supposed six implications through the investigation of the performance analysis of each sub-project. First, the third plan should be composed of projects to be able to be supported directly. Second, the paradigm shift is needed from quantitative expansion to qualitative expansion. Third, third plan should include a special support for profoundly gifted students. Fourth, a specialization plan for science-gifted institute is required. Fifth, it is necessary to establish a camp or residential type gifted institute. Sixth, it is needed to have a quality management of science-gifted programs and MOOC (massive open online course) on science-gifted programs are needed.

Recently, many advanced countries have used original ICT tools in their educational courses. But Korea didn't have any effective origin ICT tools in our mathematical education, compared with other countries which have developed various tools, for examples, Web-Mathematica and HP Calculator. Although we have the advanced IT environment, the educational environments in mathematics using ICT seems to be not promising. In this paper, we suggest a new mathematics education tools in ICT and the internet environments in Korea, and a teaching and studyingmodel for the teachers, students and classrooms. It is based on the Sage-Math and RPG. Sage-Math which is the software based on the web and RPG(Random Problem Generator) will give a good answer for the future of Korean mathematics ICT education.

Modern society has evolved to such an extent that computing technology has become an integral part of various fields, creating new and superior value to society. Education on computer literacy, including the ability to design and build software, is now becoming a universal education that must be acquired by everyone, regardless of the field of study. Many universities are imparting software education to students to improve their problem-solving ability, including to students who are not majoring in computers. However, software education contains courses that are meant for computer majors and many students encounter difficulty in learning the grammar of programming language. To solve this problem, this paper analyzes the research outcomes of the existing software education model and proposes a Python-based software education model for students who are not majoring in computer science. Along with a Python-based software education model, this paper proposed a curriculum that can be applied during one semester, including learning procedures, and teaching strategies. This curriculum was applied to a liberal arts class and a meaningful result was derived. If the proposed software education model is applied, the students will be interested in the computer literacy class and improve their computational thinking and problem-solving ability.

The purpose of this research was to identify the dimensions of modesty and immodesty in dress and to examine the differences in female college students' perceptions, in various cultures, of modest and immodest clothes. The researchers selected South Korea and the United States for the cross-cultural comparison study because these two countries show distinctive cultural characteristics. This study was conducted through both qualitative and quantitative methods. According to the result of the preliminary study, 47 questions were developed. The 4 Likert type scales used in the questionnaire were written in both English and Korean. Pretests were performed simultaneously in both countries. 174 American and 208 Korean students completed the questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS. According to the results of factor analysis, there were 4 factors identified for the modesty-immodesty concept, including 'Conservativeness', 'Body exposure', 'Social appropriateness', and 'Attracting attention from others'. Students answered that they liked to wear conservative and socially appropriate dress in both cultures and that they did not like to wear clothing which draws a great deal of attention to them. Cultural differences were also identified. Based on the results, American students dressed more conservatively than Korean students, while Korean students preferred to wear revealing dress. American students were more conservative and preferred modest clothing. Also Korean students were more open about their body exposure and had immodest clothing attitudes.
