We conducted a survey methodology to study current state of Information & Communication Technology (ICT) application for teachers in special education. The analysis of 103 sample data shows the media type and usage frequency, the reason of ICT application, the awareness of ICT training program necessity and the detail training program. We divided two groups by work experience in education based on time when ICT curriculum adapted in special education department. The several differences of ICT usage and skill levels in managing ICT of two groups are statistically significant.

There is a great deal of effort to improve Computational Thinking in education. In this paper, we define the relationship between SW capability and Computational Thinking, and then examine the current status of pre-service teacher's computing thinking. For this purpose, a survey about the attitude toward SW education and computing thinking was administered to prospective teachers who learned Entry software for one semester. The results of the survey showed that the improvement of abstraction, data analysis, and automation among the pre-service teacher's computing thinking is needed. When educating preliminary teachers, we can see that we need an education method that can increase the analysis and design capability beyond the Entry Software development tool.

Today the high school mathematics lesson has an effect on the scholastic achievement internationally, but fails to lead to the interest in the mathematics which stimulates the intellectual curiosity. Due to this, 2015 revised curriculum includes the effort to improve the emotional aspect of mathematics positively. It is needed that the teaching method through discussion and debate must be introduced to accomplish the objective of the mathematics in 2015 revised curriculum focused on the improvement of the ability and attitude to solve the problems creatively by increasing the mathematical communication skill of the students. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of mathematical essay-typed lesson focused on discussion and debate on the mathematical disposition and attitude of high school student. The findings from this study provided that the essay-typed lessons focused on discussion and debate improved the subject students' mathematical achievement and disposition and attitude, but it is not significant change.

In this research, we have carried out an experiment with grade 10 students. Students will be choosing their roles and creating their own script in relation to the environmental problems such as the seriousness of global wanning and the mutation of ecosystem. Throughout this process, they will come up with a solution to the problem In addition, we will assess students' knowledge achievement as well as the changes in attitudes toward environment, and analyze whether the role-play method of education is efficient or not. According to the research result, we have confirmed that the method of role-play as a education tool was more efficient than the traditional lecturing method. Students experienced higher rate of knowledge acquisition and more optimistic effects on their attitudes toward the mutation of ecosystem and also the seriousness of the global wanning. Students also pointed out in the interview that the role-play allowed them to share their thoughts with other classmates, which were not carried out frequently in the traditional education system In addition, each member of groups could participate cooperatively with teammates, which ultimately helped them to develop scientific and introspective ways of thinking.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of concept mapping strategies on the learner's achievement and their attitude change in science learning. The subject was 159 male students in a middle school in Seoul. Three experimental groups were instructed with different kinds of teaching methods about the unit of photosynthesis and digestive organs. Group I was instructed with traditional teaching method, GroupII was instructed with guided concept mapping strategy, GroupIII was instructed with student-centered concept mapping strategy. The major findings of this study are as follows. 1. Student-centered concept mapping strategy was observed effective at 0.05 significance level in achievement and retention. 2. Only student-centered concept mapping strategy changed students' attitude toward science learning positively. 3. It was observed that there was very significant correlation between the learning ability and science achievement (p<0.01). 4. Student-centered concept mapping strategy was found effective in upper learning-ability group, and guided concept mapping strategy in middle learning-ability group(p < 0.05). 5. Student-centered concept mapping strategy was effective to the groups of upper and middle learning-ability in changing students' attitude toward science learning(p < 0.05).

The purpose of this study is to review, through case study, how the use of web materials has influence on the improvement of self-oriented Learning in mathematics of primary school. This is one of the ways to improve classroom lectures suggested in the 7th National Standard of Curriculum. To accomplish this, the following three studies were conducted. First, a questionnaire concerning the improvement of self-oriented Learning Skill through the use of the materials on the web was designed and analyzed. Second, the activities of the class using the web materials were recorded and the study activities of the children were observed. Third, the process of writing notes about their study using web materials was analyzed though interviews after teaching and learning. Through these studies, it has been shown how web materials contribute to the improvement of self-oriented Learning Skill.

In this paper, We designed and implemented a web based PBL system for ICT training. We surveyed special qualities and a learning model which have been researched for web based PBL system. According to the result of preceding research, we designed a web based PBL system consisted of teaming guidance, learning subject, collaboration learning, loaming result, help center, bulletin board. Also, We applied the web based PBL system to beginner. According to the result of this application, it was found that the students had more interest in learning and utilization of the system when using the web based PBL system. And the web based PBL system was very useful in setting up a problem-solving plan and a ICT learning plan.

As the necessity of creative and convergent people who will lead the future society is emphasized, STEAM education is becoming an issue as new science education method. The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of science lesson applying STEAM education on the creativity and science related attitudes of elementary school students. In this study, the science lesson applying STEAM education meant integrated lesson included 'Creative planning' and 'Emotional experience'. The study subjects were four classes of the 4th grade of D elementary school in Busan. Two classes including 43 students were experimental group and the others including 40 students were comparison group. For the purpose of study, 'The state change of water' unit in the 4th grade elementary science text book was analyzed and recomposed applying STEAM education. And the recomposed unit was applied to experimental group, whereas comparison group was taught traditional science lesson. The results of this study were as follows. First, the science lesson applying STEAM education influenced significantly the improvement of the creativity of elementary school students. Second, the science lesson applying STEAM education influenced significantly the improvement of the science related attitudes of elementary school students.

In this study, MBTI personality type test was conducted for high school students in engineering, and then programming class was conducted to analyze students' learning attitudes. To do this, we designed learning based on creative problem solving model and integrated thinking model. Students classify I (introvert) type and O (extrovert) type as a primary and T (thinking type) and P (cognitive type) as secondary. As a result of this study, learning motivation factors according to personality type were found. Therefore, in future research, we want to study the change of learning method according to learner personality type.
