The purpose of this study is to closely examine a positive effect of grateful note-taking on grateful disposition and happiness in undergraduates and to inquire into a significance of experiencing the grateful note-taking. For the study, the pre·post tests were carried out in relation to grateful disposition and happiness targeting 131 undergraduates at K university where is located in G city. Also, for the qualitative research, data were collected through mind-class students' grateful notes, grateful-note reviews and in-depth questionnaires, and through the researcher's daily record of observation. As a result of the research, the grateful disposition and happiness showed a significant difference by group according to whether or not writing a grateful note. In other words, compared to the comparative group, the experimental group with the experience of grateful note-taking was indicated to be higher in grateful disposition and happiness. Meanwhile, a significance of experiencing the grateful note-taking appeared to be a positive thought, thankful habit, reflective time, and happiness discovery. These findings can be considered to offer an implication in terms of all variables that have an effect on grateful disposition and happiness in university students, and to show the necessity of expanding a grateful note-taking program.

Humankind longed for an image like the sense of sight and has developed history of image on the basis of the will toward record and reproduction. A long period of time was required for accumulation of technology for reproduction of an object, but directing point has always been impression experienced by the 'eyes.' But it has not all been pointing in the realistic image. This study aimed to discuss about its process and directing point of the paradigm of image creation that has been continued together with progress of humankind based on the academic outcomes achieved by Platon. 'Mimesis' classified by Plato required techne how far it may be distant from 'Idea.' Techne went forward in the direction of securing rationality according to accumulation of civilization in the end and reality, the history of mimesis was the process toward 'realistic image' and 'fantastic image'.

Educational Programming Language has been reported to expand thinking ability and to give help in creative problem solving ability by numerous researches. Researchers are verifying the educational effects of EPL by applying it to various area, but researches in effective application of EPL is yet incomplete. Thus, for effective application of EPL, this research has verified the project completing ability depending on studying style targeted to college senior students. As results of verification, first, the results showed significant differences in project completing abilities depending on information processing methods, and learners who preferred self-reflecting introspection showed high scores. Second, in learning style the divergers showed the highest scores. This research suggested the necessity of guidance and detailed planning of self-reflecting introspective activity in ideas that would be realized by learners through searching for factors that could enhance the degree of project completion in programming learning using EPL.

The purpose of this study is to investigate science teachers' orientation toward scientific inquiry-based teaching. In this study, five middle school science teachers formed and participated in a teacher learning community for scientific inquiry-based instruction during one year. Data collection consisted of pre and post questionnaire and interviews, audio-recordings of teachers' collaborative lesson planning and reflection on teaching practice, and field notes of participant teachers' teaching practice and follow-up interviews. Data analysis indicated that there were four orientations toward scientific inquiry-based teaching. They were knowledge and beliefs about 'goals of scientific inquiry-based teaching', 'scientific inquiry-based teaching and learning', 'argumentation-based teaching and learning', and 'nature of science and science inquiry'. Teachers' collaboration in a teacher learning community would be effective in facilitating teachers' orientation to scientific inquiry-based teaching.

This study examined the curriculum CQI forms implemented at A university for quality management and improvement of instruction. Under the reorganization of competency-based curriculum, University A has improved the CQI form so that the planning, process and outcomes of class can be managed systematically. This study proposes a CQI form through literature research and has undergone a revision process through external expert verification. The major findings are as follows. First, when developing the CQI form, the questions were composed to evaluate and reflux the entire course of the class, including the planning, operation, results, and feedback of the class. Second, it was divided into three stages such as last semester, current semester, and next semester to prepare a comprehensive analysis and improvement plan, so that the effect of continuous class improvement and reflux can be obtained. Third, integrating the lesson plans and lecture evaluation results in the preparation of CQI increased the convenience of instructors. Fourth, the objective results (achievement results for each evaluation tool, lecture evaluation results) were provided to the instructor so that they could sufficiently reflect on them. This study is significant in that it provides implications for future CQI development.

Micro-teaching is one of instructional methods to improve teaching skills whereby teachers present short sessions and receive feedbacks on their performance. In this research, we developed the web based micro-teaching system for more efficient and effective teacher training by placing videotaped session and peer feedbacks near rather than far from each other on the screen. We analyzed previous studies related to the micro-teaching system, and interviewed pre-service teachers to find some suggestions. Based on this analysis, we drew design principles and developed web based micro-teaching system, which helps teachers to plan instructional strategies, to reflect teaching skills, and to participate in peer assessment. We hope that the system will be useful to not only teacher training but also other fields such as presentation or interview skills.

In this study, we identified the effects of Self-Reflective Note(SRN) strategy, which used on 'college mathematics' courses, operated as a liberal arts curriculum course in university. For this purpose, we used SRN strategy on 'college mathematics' 3 classes, 'college mathematicsII' 1 class enrolled 95 students, and then analyzed the data. For identifying a change of students' learning, we conducted surveys related to the affective domain, core competencies, satisfaction. From this, we identified the followings. First, the interest, self-confidence, future expectation of students who attended classes in which SRN strategy is used are positively changed. Second, core competencies(self-directed ability, communication ability) of students who attended classes in which SRN strategy is used are improved. Third, the students who attended classes in which SRN strategy is used evaluated such as mathematics learning using the strategy help their mathematics study. Fourth, the students who attended classes in which SRN strategy is used evaluated such as the strategy improved their learning habit, supplemented their weakness, and activate realistic communication between professor and them.

As a film maker, Lee Chang Dong stands out from most Korean film makers who work within the trappings of genre films. To be sure, Lee has also used the trappings of genre films, such as noire and melodrama, but primarily as a tool to communicate with film audience. In his most recent film "Poetry", Lee seems to have even stripped even the minimal trappings of genre film. Lee commands the audience to self-reflect and work towards their own conclusions by denying them the illusory identification on screen. In this way, Lee's works are counter cinema. Lee achieves a distancing effect using such filmic apparatuses as hand-held camera, fantasy, mise en abyme, and returned gaze. Through these filmic apparatuses, Lee exposes the re-presentation of text and compels his audience to see the historical and political contexts of the text. In this study, I make the case that Lee Chang Dong's film making is an act of repetition compulsion that cultivates ethical reflection, through symbolization of the invisible realities.

This study is to explore what kinds of leisure we really need in our competitive speed society and what the true leisure should be like. The present researcher analyzed the concept of serious casual leisure and its implications on our social values. The conclusions of this study are as follows: First, we might have made a mistake paying too much attention to serious leisure while ignoring the value of casual leisure, because serious leisure has been thought to produce positive effects on self-development and social integration. It is important to note that casual leisure could not only satisfy human's need for balance in life and also contribute to her/his physical and psychological wellbeing. Second, In order to correct an error of sticking to the dichotomy of serious casual leisure, the concept of fast slow leisure, which defines leisure based on the way of its presentation, was also discussed. Third, the way of life which we considered unproductive should be reconsidered as it has a meaning in itself.
