In the database design course, the team project is a very important process to develop students' database design competencies. In order to carry out team projects smoothly, active interaction between students and the professor as well as collaboration among team members are very important. However, a full uncontacted class was suddenly decides in the first semester of 2020, it was questionable whether it would be possible to effectively manage this course, where team projects to construct database take up a big portion. However team projects were able to proceed without major problems through interaction using real-time video media such as zoom, and discussions, quizzes, and Q&A supported by the online education support system (LMS), and online presentations, mutual evaluations, and so on. This paper shares the experience of managing engineering team projects in uncontacted classes and based on three surveys introduces desirable improving directions of this instruction and some suggestions to improve uncontacted classes overall.

This study examined the influences of participation in the free semester on school life satisfaction and interest in classes and whether the effect persisted longitudinally. The participants were students from middle schools located in large cities: 451 students in the experimental group and 466 students in the control group. Only the students of the experimental group participated in the free semester. The data were collected at the end of the free semester for three years, and the results are as follows. First, the school life satisfaction of students in the experimental group was significantly higher than those in the control group until the second year but not in the third year. Second, there was no difference in interest in the main subject classes between the experimental and control groups until the third year. Third, students' interest in art and sports classes in the experimental group was significantly higher than those in the control group until the second year but not in the third year. These findings suggest that long-term planning and management of the institution rather than short-term introduction is required for the continuous effects of the free semester.

As the importance of digital competency education is highlighted, this study is a case study on block coding classes for elementary school students during vacation for the purpose of bridging the information education gap among students. The purpose of this study is to design and operate a play-centered block coding class program and find out if it is effective in improving students' interest. As a result of completing the teaching plan through the second consultation and revision, running the class, and analyzing the change in learning interest of the students through the t-test, the play-oriented block coding class designed in this study was effective in improving students' interest. In addition, it was possible to discover interesting elements such as student-led learning process and immersion through realistic play activities, friendship, collaboration, and communication through group activities. This study is significant in suggesting a plan to increase learning interest for students who are new to coding.

This study discusses the effective management of mixed-ages classes in kindergarten. For the study, 300 kindergarten teachers in charge of mixed classes for regular courses completed a self-reported questionnaire through a web survey. The data were analyzed by chi-square test and presented by frequency and percentage. Mixed-ages classes had relatively fewer children than one-age classes and they were prevalent in public kindergartens and rural areas. The results were as follows. First, mixed-ages classes were induced by the small number of young children. Second, teachers managed their classes with difficulty due to the lack of supporting staff and few chances for additional teaching training. Third, teachers needed supporting human resources for their teaching and administration assistances. About 23.0% of kindergartens received assistance such as additional training, financial assistance, and consulting supervision from related institutions. The study results suggested the challenges in regulations of age ratio in mixed-ages class, additional teaching training for teachers in mixed-ages classes and replacement of mixed-ages class to same age class as the long-term plan.

Viewing and approaching problems based on computational thinking can be improved through informatics education, which is essential for students to live in a future society. The purpose of this study is to analyze the operation status of informatics subjects that have become general electives in the 2015 revised curriculum, and to contribute to enhancing the effect of future informatics subject. To achieve this goal, a questionnaire was conducted for 400 students who graduated from high school in 2015-2016, and five students and five informatics subjects teachers were interviewed. Operation period of Infomatics subject, contents, method and evaluation method were analyzed. As a result, the operation of informatics subjects varied greatly from the second semester of the first year to the second semester of the third year. The most common method was teaching type, but the percentage of self-study was high in the second semester of the third year. The contents of the study did not learn all the contents, and the use rate of textbooks was low in the class. This study confirmed that the informatics subject class did not proceed in the form of observing the curriculum similarly to other subjects excluded. It is also significant that for the first time, the operational status of informatics subjects was analyzed.

The purpose of this study was to explore the direction of application and quality management plan of science curriculum of elementary and middle school according to the 2009 revised curriculum. In order to do this, nationwide survey was administered. The subject was 126 elementary school teachers and 88 middle school science teachers. It was founded that teachers had negative opinion on the introduction of the grade cluster system. They considered that it was appropriate to link the contents of Science subject with Practical Arts(Technology Home Economics) subject by similar topic. Science classes were implemented without changing the number of class hours in most schools. They recognized the necessity of differentiated instruction in science classes, but they seldom applied the differentiated instruction. And they suggested that the teaching-learning materials, evaluation materials and contents be provided to apply the STEAM. This study designates the following strategic supports for the effective implementation of 2009 revised science curriculum; 1) the science teachers training program to provide useful information for understanding and teaching the 2009 revised science curriculum, 2) the teachers' community in the school, 3) the development and provision of the feasible STEAM plans.

This study is aimed to investigate that the blended e-learning could enhance the effectiveness compared to the conventional lecture performed in classroom. At first, both the CbE(Class based E-learning) and the EbC(E-learning based Class) mode have been generated in blended e-learning operation method following the process which analyze the various studies of interest. In addition, the instruction structures of Z Type(Zigzag model) and H-Type(Ladder model) were established as proposed model. The H-Blended e-learning based on CbE mode was introduced in the Excel Spread Sheet subject which held in A University to achieve the goal of this study. Learners were categorized and belonged to either the group 1(over 50% of attendance in cyber lecture) or the group 2(the rest of them). The data analysis was performed with $x^2$-test, t -test to compare the achievement of study between groups. The t -test result showed that the academic achievement in learning with group 1 was statistically significant than the learner in group 2. The effectiveness of the blended e-learning has been proved as the logistic regression analysis showed that the rate of the attendance in the cyber lecture functioned as indicator that enable to predict the acceptance.
