Conservation reasoning makes operational thought possible as a functional tool and it is the essential concept not only in the area of science and mathematics but also in several aspects of daily life. The abilities to solve mathematical problems and that of scientific reasoning and abstract way of thinking depend on whether thereis conservation reasoning or not and they are critical concepts that enables us to confirm the steps of cognitive development. Therefor in the study, we emphasized the issue that is the ways to speed up the scientific era by analyzing the correlation between the formation of conservation reasoning and neuro-cognitive variables. About 50% of 1-3 grade students did not had conservation reasoning skills. The formation of conservations was not linear. Scientific reasoning ability, planing and inhibiting ability were significantly different in levels of conservation, And, conservation reasonings were significantly correlated with cognitive variables. Scientific reasoning and planning ability significantly explained about 20% of the conservation reasoning ability of 1-3 grades.

This paper proposes a new parity-preserving reversible logic gate. It is a parity-preserving reversible logic gate, that is, the party of the outputs matches that of the inputs. In recent year, reversible logic gate has emerged as one of the important approaches for power optimization with its application in low CMOS design, quantum computing and nono-technology. We show that our proposed parity-preserving reversible logic gate is much better in terms of number of reversible logic gates, number of garbage-outputs and hardware complexity with compared ti the exiting counterpart.

The purpose of this study was to develop teaching stratege focused on Conservational reasoning, Proportional reasoning, Variable-controlling reasoning, Probabilitic reasoning, Correlational reasoning, Combinational reasoning and investigate its effects on enhancing students' logical thinking skills through the science teaching on common education. And the teaching materials was implemented to 110 students in middle school over about six months. The results indicated that the experimental group presented statistically meaningful improvement in logical thinking skills (p<05). Especially, this teaching stratege was effective on Conservational reasoning, Variable-controlling reasoning, Combinational reasoning but was not effective on Proportional reasoning, Probabilitic reasoning, Correlational reasoning (p<.05). Logical thinking according to the teaching strategy skill was not affected by gender, cognitive level, academic achievement (p<.05).

The purpose of this study was to analyze the problem-solving process of student's compensation con-cept.For this purpose, verbal interactions during activities were audio-taped, transcribed, and analyzed. And classroom observation and interview with students were carried out. Students who were superior in mathematical operations tended to explain compensation concept using proportionality. On the other hand, students who had low level of conservation concept can not connect 'relation of two variables' with 'conservation of equilibrium' at the formation process of com-pensation concept. Students who succeed in the formation of compensation concept showed high level of conservation concept. To promote the formation of compensation concept, it is necessary that how to develop proportional concept and conservation concept as closely related with compensation concept should be studied.

The purpose of the study is to meta-analyze research results on Korean students' logical thinking ability. The results of meta-analysis on the research studies between the year 1980 and the year 2000 show that about 40-50% of Korean middle school students have conservation reasoning, proportional reasoning and combinatorial reasoning abilities, and that about 25-30% of them have control of variables and probability reasoning abilities. In addition, only 8% of the Korean middle-school students have correlational ability. When comparing their logical thinking ability results with those of Japanese and American middle-school students, The ratio (32.6%) of Korean middle-school students who have formal thought ability is a little higher than that of American students (30.6%), but much lower than that of Japanese students (50.1%).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of learning algorithm which uses real-life examples including the concept of algorithm on the logical thinking of elementary school students. For this purpose, the experiment was performed by pre-GALT test, a case selection of algorithm which can be taught in real-life, experiment treatment after completing teaching plan, post-GALT test, and paired sample t-test on the results of pre and post GALT in order. As a result, changes in the degree of logical thinking ability and in five sub-regions(conservative logic, proportional logic, combinatorial logic, probabilistic logic, controlling variables) composing of logical thinking obtained statistically significant results in .05 significance level but changes in the correlational logic couldn't obtain the significant results.

The complex number system is supposed to introduce first chapter in the first grade of high school. When number system is expanded to complex numbers, the main aim is to understand preservation of algebraic structure with regard to the flow of curriculum and textbook. This research reviewed overall alternative articulation and treatment of textbooks from a logical viewpoint. Two research questions are developed below. First, in the structure of the current curriculum, when we consider student's 'level', how are the alternative articulation and treatment of textbooks in complex unit on a logical point of view? Second, What are more logical alternative articulation and treatment? What alternative articulation and treatment are suitable for a running goal? and what are the improvement which is definitive?

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of logical thinking when applying STEAM program for middle school students. Therefore, you're creative, framework governing the conditions and be present, creative design of the emotional experience of class under the procedures of the program from a program by previous studies. STEAM improve program is entirely logical thinking to determine that 47 2nd grade in middle school student radio sampling four weeks, six round of poetry classes. Awareness stage after the program STEAM improved but there was little change in logical thinking and appears to be effective, particularly in conservation, combined logic.(p<0.05)

This paper presents the methodolog~- to improve the computatIon efficiency of the simulation by developing the concept of the dynamic preservatIon and reurilization of the state transitions. The computation COst is emormous for the simulation of hardware described in hardware description languages including VHDL Analyzing the process of simulation precisely, we have found that the number of the pattems for the state transition is limited if the sizes of hardware modules are determined properly. The pattems are preserved dynamically when they appeared first, and are utilized in later simulation in order to reduce the simulation costs. In this study, the efficiency of the present method was verified using case studies for the simulation.
