The purpose of this study is to review the literatures on the evolutionary perspective on education and to draw the educational implications for science education. This study addresses on several topics as follows: our common misunderstandings about the evolutionary perspective on education; children's inherent knowledge and abilities, their learning about the evolutionarily novel knowledge and abilities in school, their difficulties in academic learning, and the instructional strategies to cope with the difficulties; and the implications for science education from the evolutionary perspective. The evolutionary perspective on education has provided new insights how culturally important information is transmitted across generations in the past hunting-gathering societies and the modern societies, and how children's inherent motivational and behavioral dispositions affect their academic learning. In addition, the new perspective on education can be used to generate empirical hypotheses about children's science learning, and with the further research, could lead to useful implications and ultimately improve educational outcomes.

Client-server DBMS based on a data-skipping model can exploit client resources effectively by allowing inter-transaction caching. However, inter-transaction caching raises the need of transactional cache consistency maintenance(TCCM) protocol, since each client is able to cache a portion of the database dynamically. Detection-based TCCM schemes can reduce the message overhead required for cache consistency if they validate clients replica asynchronously, and thus they cm show high throughput rates. However, they tend to show high ratios of transaction abort since transactions can access invalid replica. For coping with this drawback, this paper develops a new notion of shadow transaction, which is a backup-purpose one that is kept ready to replace an aborted transaction. This paper proposes a new detection-based TCCM scheme named DL-ST on the basis of the notion of shadow transaction. Using a simulation model, this paper evaluates the effect of shadow transaction in terms of transaction through rate and abort ratio.

Web sites evaluation was performed by four motivational factors which include stimulating, meaningful, organized, and easy-to-use.

One of main purposes to educate gifted/talented science students is to express their giftedness. Most of all, it is necessary to examine thoughts of gifted/talented students including a challenge and preparation of it, because their perception of science and scientists can affect on way of thinking, study course or occupation. To investigate this, we studied on the perception of science gifted/talented students toward Nobel science prize. They have lower possibility of Korean scientists' winning Nobel science prize, but they think when they grow up adult they can win it. And most of them have a challenge of winning Nobel prize. It is necessary to study educational stimuli and strategies for gifted/talented students to prosper a challenge of science.

T-test and ANOVA were conducted for differences in spirituality and clinical practice stress according to general characteristics. The correlation between spirituality and clinical stress was analyzed by Pearson corrlation coefficients. As a result, dental hygiene and clinical practice stress of students were negatively correlated with spirituality, major satisfaction, and academic performance. If the motivation to apply to the department was grade, the clinical practice stress was higher. The limitation of this study is that it is impossible to make a concrete comparison because previous studies on the spirituality of dental hygiene and students are insufficient.
