The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between social support and child behavior problems and cognitive development in low income female-headed families. Informed by the stress-coping theory, family process model, and theoretical perspectives related to social support, this study estimates both direct and indirect effects of social support on child behavior problems and cognitive development. In particular, we focus on how the relationship between child outcomes and social support is mediated by mothers' parenting stress. The first three waves of longitudinal data from a subsample of 1,315 single and non-cohabiting low-income mothers in the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study were utilized in this study. Results suggest that social support is directly associated with child behavior problems and also indirectly associated with child behavior problems mediated by mothers' parenting stress. Social support did not have a direct effect on children's cognitive development but rather had an indirect effect, which was mediated by mothers' parenting stress. The policy and practice implications of these findings are discussed.

The primary purpose of this study is to survey multiplicative thinking levels and its characteristics of third graders in elementary school and to analyze how to use it when they solve the proportional problems. As results, the transition thinking ranked the highest among the four kinds of thinking levels when the $3^{rd}$ graders solved the multiplication problems. It means that the largest numbers of students still can not distinguish the additive and multiplicative situations completely and remain in the transition thinking, which thinks both additively and multiplicatively. In addition, the performance of solving proportional problems was distinguished from the levels of thinking. Through this study, we can give some implications of the importance of multiplicative thinking and instructional methods related to multiplication.

대부분의 수학 교사들은 국내외에서 개최되는 많은 학술 행사에 참여하기를 꺼려하고 있으며 수학 교육의 새로운 정보에 접촉하려는 의지가 부족한 실정이다. 이 때문에 세계의 수학 교육의 흐름이 어떤지, 우리 나라의 수학 교육과정이나 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습법이 외국의 것과는 어떻게 다른지 또는 수준에 차이가 있다면 얼마나 차이가 있는지 별 관심을 갖지 않고 있으며 구태여 많은 노력을 들여 이러한 것을 알려고 하지도 않는다. 필자의 판단으로는 우리 나라의 수학 교육이 당면하고 있는 가장 큰 문제는 수학 교사들은 많으나 우수한 자질을 가진 수학 교사들이 많지 않기 때문에 창의성 교육이 제대로 이루어지지 않는 것과 학교 수학 교육에서 능력별 반 편성이 무엇보다도 필요한 줄 알면서도 수십년 동안 제대로 실행되지 않아 학생들의 수준에 맞도록 효율적으로 수학을 지도할 수 없는 것이라 생각한다. 이 두 문제는 모두 몇몇 수학 교사들의 의지와 노력만으로는 해결할 수 없는 문제들이다. 그러나 많은 교사들이 모여 이러한 문제점들을 공동으로 인식하고 함께 해결하기를 노력한다면 시일이 좀 걸리더라도 언젠가는 해결되리라고 믿는다. 장기적으로 수학 교사의 자질을 향상시키기 위해서는 교사 양성 기관(사범대학과 교육대학교)의 개선이 필요하며, 능력별 반 편성은 교육정책자들이나 교육행정가들이 마음만 먹으면 1${\sim}$2년내에 이룰 수 있다. 이제 전국수학교육연구대회와 같은 행사는 단순한 수학교육이론의 전달이나 현장연구에서 발견한 새로운 사실들만은 발표하는 곳이 아니라, 될 수 있는 데로 많은 수학 교육자들이 모여 수학 교육의 문제점을 찾고, 함께 풀어 나가기 위한 토론의 장(場)이 되어야한다. 또 필요에 따라서는 수학 교육에 관련한 어떤 결의도 하고 교육부 또는 각 교육청이나 교육연구기관에 보내는 건의문도 만들어야 할 것이다. 어떻든 이와 같이 전국 수학교육자들이 모일 때는 꼭 참여하여 우리의 문제를 적극적으로 해결하도록 힘을 합치는 것이 수학교육자의 올바른 태도라고 생각한다.

This study is to suggest the tasks of Christian Education for developing empathic emotional ability of women in AI era through examining the meaning of empathic sensibilization and the examples of women overcoming the hardships of their times and bringing about change. Empathic sensibility is becoming a issue and empathy is emphasized in AI era. Because empathy is becoming a big support in overcoming hardships, and empathic emotion is showing human dignity, equality, service, devotion and consideration and so is forming a global community living together. And on investigation of the examples of women overcoming the hardships of their times, I found that as a woman with a sense and thought, as a historical human being, not as a gender, the tasks of Christian Education for developing empathic sensibility ability of women in AI era will be effort to be yourself, theological identity reestablishment of women and developing insight to read the times.

Recently, lifelong learning ability was newly proposed as scientific literacy, the goal of the science curriculum. To solve various science-related problems students encounter in life, lifelong learning abilities related to science beyond school science education are required, but empirical evidence shows that students can solve problems they actually face through scientific literacy. It is not easy to find in the existing science education research. In addition, there is a lack of discussion on how to cultivate lifelong learning ability suggested in the curriculum through school science education. In this study, attention was paid to SSI education as a method for students to cultivate lifelong learning ability through school science education and to develop their ability to solve science-related problems encountered in life. In this context, statements in the existing SSI education studies were reviewed to discover discourses related to lifelong learning, and their types and characteristics were distinguished. It was possible to confirm lifelong learning and its applicability with focus on science education research through this. For the study, 18 literature materials on the subject of SSI education were selected, and the discourses related to lifelong learning in the SSI education research were discovered by examining the statements revealed in the data. As a result of the study, there are four categories of discourses related to lifelong learning: 'awareness of science,' 'connection between science and everyday life', 'promotion of participatory citizenship', and 'construction of identity'. Various SSI education studies have already had lifelong learning perception in various contexts, and the four types of discourses related to lifelong learning could be linked to the four types of learning presented in the UNESCO Lifelong Learning Report. SSI education tends to view students' life experiences as part of their learning and aims to help students develop the character and capacity to make responsible decisions on social issues related to science and put them into practice. This competency can be continuously connected to the real-life of students outside of school as a lifelong learning ability. This study requires expanding the discourse related to lifelong learning in science education and operating and managing the overall educational system to foster students' lifelong learning ability.

An omnidirectional VR treadmill is a highly-immersive walking simulator that allows identical body movements, such as walking, running, and sitting. However, the operation difficulty of an omnidirectional VR treadmill may cause data reliability problems. Therefore, this study aims to verify the effectiveness of a VR treadmill by comparing the ability to orient in the real and virtual worlds spatially. For this purpose, a rotating and searching path experiment was conducted with participants. This experiment showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the ability of the participants to orient in the real and virtual worlds spatially. In addition, the omnidirectional VR treadmill requires an adaptation time for the users due to the difficulty in the treadmill operation. However, there was no significant difference in the difficulty felt by the participants according to the adaptation time. Hence, these findings supported the possibility of collecting realistic walking data without safety concerns through an omnidirectional VR treadmill. Furthermore, this treadmill could be used in future research to solve problems directly related to pedestrian safety, such as the interaction between vehicles and pedestrians.

산업 전반에 보급된 실시간 시스템의 수행 상태를 파악하기 위해 실시간 감시 기능을 사용한다. 감시의 기본 목적은 감시 대상이 정상적으로 수행하는지를 파악하는 것이다. 특히 실시간 감시 기법으로는 실시간 시스템 상에서 동작하는 실시간 프로세스 상태를 감시하는 프로세스 감시 기법이 있다. 이러한 감시 기법을 지원하는 실행시간 프로세스 모니터의 구조 및 데이터 저장소의 구조에 대해서는 이미 설계 및 구현을 하였다. 하지만, 기존의 프로세스 모니터는 프로세스 상태 데이터를 수집하는 기본 기능만을 제공하였다. 개발자에게 있어서 의미 있는 정보는 프로세스 상태 데이터만이 아니라 프로세스의 동작상의 문제점을 발견하고 원인 규명을 할 수 있도록 하는 고급 정보이다. 이러한 정보를 도출하기 위해 본 논문에서는 기존의 실행시간 프로세스 모니터의 구조 기반 위에서 프로세스 동작 여부를 확인하는 기능과 흐름 추적 기능을 새롭게 설계 추가하였다. 이들 기능을 통해 개발자는 어떤 프로세스에서 동작상의 문제가 발생했는지, 또한 문제를 발생시킨 원인 프로세스가 무엇인지를 추적해 낼 수 있으며, 개발단계에서 문제 해결 능력을 높일 수 있다. 본 논문에서 설계한 원인 프로세스 추적 기능을 가진 실행시간 프로세스 모니터는 기본적으로 실시간 감시 및 제어를 필요로 하는 분야에서 이용될 수 있다.

This study is to help to understand the influence of exchange writing activity in the elementary mathematics on students' mathematical communication skill. Various technical activities had been implemented during the classes and the ideas from those activities had been interpreted into writings in the final stage of the classes. Those writings, then, were distributed to other students or teachers in order to devise a teaching model for exchange writing, which is to be applied to the 3rd grade classes and to identify the influence on the in mathematical communication skill. From this study, we could get such conclusions as follows: First, there was considerable difference between experimental group practicing exchange writing and control group engaging in normal learning activities in the progress of their mathematical communication skill (group discussion), writing skill and expressivity when examining their average communication skill using t-method. Similar trend had been witnessed when self-evaluating their mathematical communication skill. Second, when it comes to the mathematical tendency, experimental group showed a higher tendency in positiveness compared to the control group. Therefore, we might conclude that the exchange writing has a positive influence on the students' mathematical tendency, especially on their curiosity or interest in teaming, willingness to study and their comprehension of its importance.

The powerful role of analogical reasoning in discovering mathematics is well substantiated in the history of mathematics. Mathematically gifted students, thus, are encouraged to learn via in-depth exploration on their own based on analogical reasoning. In this study, 57 gifted students (31in the 7th and 26 8th grade) were asked to formulate or clarify analogy. Students produced fruitful constructs led by analogical reasoning. Participants in this study appeared to experience the deep thinking that is necessary to solve problems made with analogies, a process equivalent to the one that mathematicians undertake. The subjects had to reflect on prior knowledge and develop new concepts such as an orthogonal projection and a point of intersection of perpendicular lines based on analogical reasoning. All subjects were found adept at making meaningful analogues of a triangle since they all made use of meta-cognition when searching relations for analogies. In the future, methodologies including the development of tasks and teaching settings, measures to evaluate the depth of mathematic exploration through analogy, and research on how to promote education related to analogy for gifted students will enhance gifted student mathematics education.
