The purpose of this study was to develop and apply three types SMART instructional modules about the mineral resources and investigate its effect. One hundred students in the experimental group and 111 students in the control group from 6 classes in the $1^{st}$ year of a girl's high school participated in this study. One unit of tablet PC was provided to every two students in the experimental group and three types of SMART classes were implemented in class. Teacher-centered traditional classes were carried out for the control group. The instrument designed to assess the level of students' interest in mineral resources consisted of 10 items using 5-point Likert scale. To investigate the level of students' understanding, 15 items were developed on the mineral, mineral deposits, and the development of mineral resources. In addition, the participants were asked to describe advantages and disadvantages of the classes using the SMART modules. Results are as follows. First, participants in the experimental group showed a significantly higher level of interest on the mineral and the mineral learning than those in the control group. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the desire to observe minerals and rocks. Second, students in the experimental group showed a higher level of understanding than the control group. The students with higher learning ability showed a significantly higher level of understanding than the lower group students. Third, the participants pointed out that the advantage of the SMART instructional modules was their experience in searching the relevant information and producing diverse outputs about mineral resource. On the contrary, the difficulties in coordinating opinions and decision making due to the excessive quantity of information were perceived as the disadvantage.

In this study, we investigated secondary science teachers' internalization of constructivistic science teaching who participated in a collaborative program between teachers and researchers designed by researchers according to constructivist views. The program consisted of lecture, workshop, and small group activities. New trends in science education and framework for science teaching were introduced during lectures, and understanding about the framework were deepened by analyzing school science classes recorded during workshops. In small group activities, participating teachers and researchers cooperated to design science lesson plans using science teaching frameworks. Five secondary science teachers participated in collaborative workshops. Collaborative programs were video-taped. Semi-structured interviews were conducted before and after workshops. All data recorded were transcribed and analyzed. In the process of internalization, participating teachers attended on different parts. Various and discernable factors such as there own background, beliefs, values, and school context produced tensions with or facilitated internalization of constructivistic science teaching. Teaching experiences and student understanding affected teachers' lesson planning activities. Teachers also showed different understandings on inquiry, application, and model from the framework, and they interpret those concepts in the framework based on their prior understanding. They perceived that too much content should be dealt within relatively limited time. Therefore, they tended to separate science class into two parts when developing science lessons: explaining science content by lecture and science laboratory as a constructivistic activity. The results of the study provide meaningful implications to the constructivist teacher education and professional development.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the middle school students' perception and their learning satisfaction in SMART learning based science instruction. Three types of modules on the solar system and lunar phases unit at the middle school level were developed and lessons on each module were taught to 207 student participants. All participants were provided with tabletPC(iPad2) with iOS5 installed, and using astronomy app Solar Walk, mirroring function, QR code, and Google Presentation, the lessons were carried out both in classroom and at home. The instrument for assessing students' perception on the SMART learning-based instruction was developed based on 4 factors including Self-directed, Motivation, Adaptiveness, and Technology Embedded, with a Likert scale from 1-5 on 20 items. The learning satisfaction survey instrument was originally from Keller's work (1987), and its test items were adapted and modified. To reveal the perception and learning satisfaction about SMART learning-based science lessons, the participants were comparatively analyzed by gender and science achievement levels. Results indicated that male students showed positive perception for the SMART learning-based instruction. Group with higher science achievement scores showed more positive perception of the SMART learning-based instruction in terms of Self-directed and Motivation factor. Also, the learning satisfaction of male students was higher than female students and group with higher academic ability more satisfied with the SMART learning-based instruction than the low group. The results provide implications for future development of programs and help set a direction of increasing the use of a SMART learning-based science in school.

Before long the number of Elementary School students per class will be 20 in Korea, but the current Area and Module of Elementary School are planned for 30 students. Therefore, necessary Area and Module for less than 20 students should be prepared. The purpose of this research is to find out necessary Area and Module for less than 20 students in Elementary School Classroom. I researched 60 Classrooms of 10 Elementary Schools before 2 researches of mine, and researched the sizes of every path in the classrooms. With the Plans for 20 students, I found the conclusion as follows: First, the one-way class requires a minimum of 5.4m×8.1m (43.74m²), a maximum of 5.4m×8.7m (48.6m²). Second, the 3-row alignment class requires a minimum of 7.2m×7.2m (51.84m²), a maximum of 7.5m×7.5m (56.25m²). Third, the group study class requires a minimum of 6.0m×8.7m (52.2m²), a maximum of 6.3m×9.3m (58.59m²). Fourth, the group study class requires a minimum of 2.34m², a maximum of 14.85m² more than the one-way class. Fifth, the suitable module which fits both 2-row alignment class and group study class except the 3-row alignment class is 6.0m×8.7m (52.2m²).

오늘날과 같이 과학기술과 정보통신 기술의 급속한 발달로 인터넷이 다르게 성장하였으며 이로 인하여 다양한 학습용 사이트가 운영되고 있다. 따라서 웹상의 교육정보가 기하급수적으로 증가되었고, 이러한 교육용 웹 자료를 컴퓨터 보조 학습 매체로 활용하고 있다. 또한 CAI(Computer Assisted Instruction), ICAI(Intelligent CAI) 나 ITS(Intelligent Tutoring System) 등을 통해 컴퓨터를 수업매체로 활용하는 방법도 많이 연구되고 있다. 하지만 현재까지 개발된 대부분의 ITS들은 CAl나 ICAI의 이론적 특징을 살릴 수 있을 만큼 진보되어있지 못한 실정이다. 특히 현행 교육과정이 지향하고 있는 수준별 교육과정에 적합하지 않고 학생들의 능력, 적성, 필요, 흥미에 대한 개인차를 고려하지 않으며, 학생 개개인의 성장 잠재력과 교육의 효율성을 극대화하지 못하고 있다. 그리고 학습자가 원하는 요구를 정확하게 파악하여 학습효과를 향상 시킬 수 있는 방법을 제공하고 있지 않다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 학습자들의 개인차 변인을 파악하여 학습자의 요구나 능력에 맞게 학습자의 학업성취를 평가할 수 있고, 수준별 교육과정에서 학습 능력이 떨어지는 학생의 학습 결손을 예방할 수 있도록 인터페이스 모듈, 학습자 모듈, 교수전략 모듈, 전문가 모듈을 가진 자기 주도적 학습을 위한 웹 기반의 MITS(Multimedia ITS: MITS)를 설계하였으며, MITS의 각 모듈들이 효율적으로 상호작용 할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze elementary school teachers' perception on application of STEAM education. For this study, a survey was administered to 80 primary teachers. The result showed as follows: First, even though, elementary school teachers have known about the meaning and aims of the STEAM education in detail, they often took a neutral attitude toward the actual teaching method. In addition, they take a negative attitude toward having the gathering. Second, only a few elementary school teachers prepared and used the teaching materials related to the STEAM education in class and teach students the concept based on the STEAM education. Only a few elementary school teachers said that they used the developed modules. However, the demand, developing the modules, was extremely high. This result means that the easy and available modules should be developed to establish the STEAM education. Third, only a few elementary school teachers applied the subject, activity, and estimation related to the STEAM education in actual class. Forth, even though, after applying, there much be the positive affects, most elementary school teachers could not recognize the positive affects. At the same time, elementary school teachers suggested the curriculum should be reorganized for students to connect between the results of the STEAM education and the contents of the textbook, and the easy and available program should be developed and spread, also. The attitude of elementary school teachers toward the application of the STEAM education was normally negative. Therefore, it is needed to include more STEAM related contents in the science textbooks and to develop various STEAM education materials and circulate them as well as to establish adequate teaching and assessment methods for STEAM education.
