기존의 멀티 프로그램이나 환경에 관한 인터넷 사이트의 환경교육 자료들이 초등학교의 또래 문화에 부합하지 않는 내용이 상당히 많이 수반되어 일선 학교에서 적용하는데 나름대로의 고충이 있었다. 이런 점을 고려하여 학습자 중심의 흥미와 놀이, 가상 실습 중심의 멀티미디어 프로그램을 설계하기로 하였다. 본 연구에서 지향할 멀티미디어 프로그램의 특징은 환경교육 영역 중 초등학교 저학년의 교육과정을 감안하여 그 수준에 맞도록 내용을 함축하여 구성주의 이론에 따른 상호작용을 강화하고 상호작용 기법을 활용하여 문제해결학습 형태로 프로그램이 전개된다는 점이다. 또한 학습자 스스로 자기 주도적 학습을 할 수 있게 될 것이고, 컴퓨터를 통하여 가상의 문제 상황을 제시하고 이를 해결하는 방식으로 설계 및 구현됨으로써 컴퓨터를 통한 문제 해결 학습의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

최근 모바일 기기의 활성화에 따라 M-learning (Mobile learning)이 활성화되고 있다. M-learning을 기반으로 한 코스웨어나 모듈 설계 시 학습자의 적극적 참여와 의미 있는 상호작용의 기회 제공과 실제적 환경에서의 교육활동을 지원하는 것에 초점을 맞추어야 한다. 근접발달영역이론 (Zone of Proximal Development : ZPD)이란 독자적으로 문제를 해결함으로써 결정되는 실제적 발달수준과 성인의 안내나 보다 능력 있는 또래들과 협동하여 문제를 해결함으로써 결정되는 잠재적 발달수준간의 거리이다. 한편, 스캐폴딩은 학습자의 근접발달영역을 변화시키며, 학습자가 스스로 학습할 수 있도록 도와주는 구체적인 방식이라 할 수 있다. 또한 스캐폴딩 (Scaffolding)은 학습자가 구조를 조직하고 새로운 지식을 구성하도록 교수자 또는 촉진자가 도와주면서 교수자와 학습자간에 상호작용하는 과정이다. 본 연구에서는 근접발달영역이론을 이용하여 모바일로 교사가 학습자에게 스캐폴딩을 제공하는 수업모형을 제안한다. 본 모형의 특징은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문제해결을 위한 스캐폴딩만이 아니라 문제 해결 후 격려 스캐폴딩을 제공하여 학습력 강화가 이뤄지도록 하였다. 둘째, 교사와 학습자 사이에 다양한 스캐폴딩을 제공하여 상호작용을 강화하였다. 셋째, 자신에게 맞는 개별학습, 반복 학습이 가능하고 자기 주도적 학습이 강화되도록 하였다.

This study was conducted concerning convergence education practice to examine the difference of learning activity participation based on college students' individual traits such as gender, grade and major. To achieve the purpose, the types of learning activity were divided into teacher-directed type, teacher-intervened type, peer-leader type, students' mutual initiative type, and then the difference of types of participation in learning activities based on learners' traits was examined. The results of crosstabs showed that there were differences in the participation of learning activities depending on the students' individual traits. The participation of girl students in gender, first year students in school-year, and students of Health & Social Service in major was significantly high.

This study investigated developmental pathways mediating effects of child abuse on peer rejection. Participants were 904 poor children aged 10-15 from 16 nationwide cities/provinces who receive financial sponsorship from Childfund in cooperation with the Ministry for Health, Welfare and Family Affairs. Structural equation modeling was employed for statistical analyses. Results showed that child abuse was directly associated with heightened risk of rejection by peers; the relationship was indirectly mediated by aggression and cognitive ability. The hypothesized partially mediated model had a better model fit than the fully mediated model. Aggression and low cognitive ability, significant effects of abuse, were associated with peer rejection. Social withdrawal, also associated with child abuse, did not account for the association between abuse and peer rejection.

Adolescence is a period of transition from child to adult and is a very important period in which to think about the direction to go in the future and establish one's ego. However, the level of life satisfaction experienced by Korean youths in the adolescent period has been shown to be the lowest among OECD countries. It is very critical to understand which factors are important in determining the level of life satisfaction and how they affect it. In this study, to analyze the factors which affect the life satisfaction of youths and their learning attitude - essential school activity prior to life satisfaction in the youth period, we firstly focused on the relationships with their parents, peers and teachers as potential factors affecting their learning attitude and life satisfaction. This study found that Parenting Style, Peer Attachment and Relationship with Teachers significantly influenced Life Satisfaction either directly or indirectly. We analyzed the structural relationships among these factors using the structure equation model, discussed the analysis results and concluded with further research directions.

The purpose of this study was to examine the structural models in which early cumulative risk factors affect children's language(indicated by expressive vocabularies) and social development(indicated by peer competence) at age 3 thorough their effects on the home learning environment. To examine the hypothesized models, the data of 1,725 families from the second and the fourth waves of the Panel Study of Korean Children was used. Correlation analysis and structural equation modeling were conducted to test the models. First, the cumulative risk factors at age 1 and 3 were highly correlated, implying the stability of the risk factors over time. The more cumulative risk factors at age 1 predicted the lower level of the home learning environment at age 3, which, in turn, was significantly related to both language and social development at age 3. However, the early cumulative risk factors did not directly influence later developmental outcomes. Moreover, the cumulative risk factors at age 3 were directly related to the child's language development, but neither social development northe home learning environment. In addition, the mediational role of the home learning environment (i.e., cumulative risk factors at age 1${\rightarrow}$home learning environment${\rightarrow}$language and social development) was statistically supported. In conclusion, the early cumulative risk factors in infancy indirectly predicted children's development at age 3 through the home learning environment. The practical implications for the early intervention and support for the families with infants who are experiencing multiple risk factors were discussed.

This study is part of a larger project that investigated the patterns of children's use of educational graphic novels (EGNs), a publication format that has been popular among young readers in Korea since 2000. In-depth interviews with elementary school teachers and school librarians uncovered tension and gaps between these adult professionals and children's enjoyment of the format. Interviewees' views on EGNs ranged from limited tolerance to a potential candidate for high-interest / low-vocabulary reading. All teachers and school librarians urged for guidelines and criteria for selecting and evaluating EGNs for children.

The purpose of this study was to explore the characteristics of children's interactive learning focusing on the Vygotsky's ZPD (the zone of proximal development) in a natural history museum as a representative free-choice learning context. We focused on the understanding of peer dyadic discourses and data were collected from 13 peer groups of children (3rd and 4th graders) who were videotaped all conversations occurred as they visited around the exhibits with no predetermined path. The transcribed data were analyzed by the developmental level of ZPD system and the discourse within an ADL (an actual developmental level) was overwhelmingly common in the conversations between child-child dyads. The representative discourse by discourse types were parsed according to three constructs of ZPD. Children formed the intersubjectivity through semiotic mediation such as conversations and exhibits and ended up with the similar situation definition. In conclusion, the details of discourses of the most impressive dyad were looked into focusing on the scientific concept. The study implies that a natural history museum becomes a meaningful resource to offer a deeper understanding of the nature of children's learning as an informal learning setting.

This study presents a design of Teachable Agent(TA) and its theoretical background. TA is an intelligent agent to which students as tutors teach, pose questions, and provide feedbacks using a concept map. TA consists of four independent Modules, Teach Module, Q&A Module, Test Module, and Resource Module. In Teach Module, students teach TA by constructing concept map. In Q&A Module, both students and TA ask questions and answer questions each other through an interactive window. To assess TA's knowledge and provide feedback to students, Test Module consists of a set of predetermined questions which TA should pass. From Resource Module, students can search and look up important information to teach, ask questions, and provide feedbacks whenever they want. It is expected that TA should provide student tutors with an active role in learning and positive attitude toward the subject matter by enhancing their cognition as well as motivation.

This study examines the effects of adolescents' volunteer activities on their development of sense of community. When examining the effects of volunteer activities, both quantity and quality sides of volunteer activities were considered in the research model and besides the direct effects of volunteer activities on their sense of community, the mediating role of self-esteem and peer attachment were also examined. The data set of conducted by National Youth Policy Institute was reanalyzed for this study. The subjects of this study were 1,426 first-grade middle school students who had experiences of volunteer activities. The results of the study are as follows. First, the total hours of volunteer activities and the satisfaction with volunteer activities were positively related to their sense of community respectively. In an integrative model which combines both quantity and quality aspects of volunteer activities, however, only the satisfaction with volunteer activities was found to be significant. This means that the satisfaction with and reflective learning after volunteer activities are more important sides of adolescents' volunteer activities than whether and how many times they had experiences in volunteer activities. Second, the satisfaction with volunteer activities was found to enhance adolescents' self-esteem and peer attachment and the changes in their personal traits again led to a higher sense of community. Therefore, both the direct effects of volunteer activities and indirect effects through self-esteem and peer attachment were proved. Based on the results of the study, the need and ways to improve the management system of adolescents' volunteer activities were suggested.
