The dissemination of smart appliances, along with the development of the latest information and communication technology has an effect on society. Their application can be seen in the smart learning environment, by use of digital textbooks with smart devices in the classroom. Hence in this study, the 4L-ACC activity using digital textbooks was applied in the third grade social studies class to improve critical thinking and problem solving skills of elementary school students. This study compared and analyzed the impact in critical thinking and problem-solving skills using digital textbooks versus standard social studies classes. As a result, in social studies classes that used the 4L-ACC activity compared to common social studies classes, elementary student's problem understanding, critical thinking, problem resolution, reflective thinking, and all lower areas of critical thinking and problem-solving were improved. In conclusion, using digital textbooks enhance student's ability to think critically and problem solve. This should provide learners a more comprehensive learning experience and therefore be integrated into more education environment.

The purpose of this study is to compare the reading effects of face-to-face reading discussion with those of web-based leading discussion. For doing this, 1 made experimental processes: firstly, to select two discussion methods(face-to-face and web-based) on the reading discussion, secondly to apply each of those methods to experimental groups(2 classrooms, 72 middle school students). The results were that there were no differences from both discussion methods in the understanding the book, in the performance degree on discussion process among higher level groups, but the web-based reading discussion model had an impact on the attitude degree of the reading discussion, the preference degree of reading, the attendance degree of reading discussion, and especially, in the lower level groups, the web-based reading discussion method was better for the attendance degree of leading discussion, the attitude of reading discussion than the face-to-face reading discussion.

This research was performed for learning motivation and learning satisfaction of flipped learning on software education in university class. In order to compare and get the result, this study used 2 groups of experimental group(flipped learning) and comparison group(traditional face to face learning). Consequently an experimental group got more strong learning motivation and learning satisfaction than traditional learning group on software education in non-major class of university. It showed at the same time in factors of learning motivation like concentration, importance of subject, self confidence. and on factors pf learning satisfaction like problem solving, reaction, understanding, interest and relation with lecturer, This study showed that flipped learning method is more effective than face to face traditional learning method for creative or problem solving subject like software education.

The opinion, that the history of science should be introduced to science lesson, has been continuously emphasized by a group of people who supported the needs of science and scientific process, nature of science, and the interaction between science and society. When the importance of the integrated science education is emphasized, the history of science is suggested as an effective curriculum for it. To respond to this identified interest, we developed a lesson of the history of science by selecting the contents of the history of science as subject topics of the integrated science and by utilizing the findings of previous studies related to the history of science in science educations. To develop the history of science class as a subject of integrated science, we chose 'the age of the earth' as a unit. After the pilot test of the unit in secondary school students, the possibility of offering the lesson as a regular course was examined with analysis of the students' reactions showing its effectiveness.

The purpose of this study is to understand two geography student teachers' experience of practical knowledge on the geography classroom organization during their student teaching. I carried out a qualitative case study on the geography classroom organization and its practice. Data was gathered through participant observation and in-deep interview. The results are as follows: 1) I present portraits two pre-service geography teachers' lives, which represent typical case of intrinsic deep motivation and spontaneous interest in subject matter. 2) Their classroom are organized $9{\sim}14$ segment, its segment organizations in introduction close steps and main lesson step behave differently. The segment activities in close step behave most irregularly. 3) In the reflection rubric, the level of their reflection is middle, mostly concentrated on 'technical' or 'dialogue' level. On the basis of these findings, it can be concluded that a different way of understanding the relationship between knowing to teach and knowing about teaching is necessary.

Cell division in biological education is an important and unintelligible unit. Most of students have no interest in learning the content, and don't concentrate on it because cell division unit contains relatively difficult content. In this vein, during considering the effective learning methods, the researcher found role-play as the method for student's positive access to important and unintelligent learning content. Effect of role-play on their learning achievement of science was analysed through the Chapter of cell division on 3rd grade of middle school students. For this study three levels of middle school students were selected from the school located in Seoul. And divided this students into experiment group and control group by 2 classes respectively. Before putting into practice this instruction, there took into account the before and after of students' learning achievement and their learning attitude by using same questionnaire. On the other hand, the researcher put into practice co-variate analysis by using SPSS statistical package as the measurement method.

Although programming language is a core education area of software that is becoming increasingly important in the age of the fourth industrial revolution, as it requires logical thinking skills, it is recognized as a difficult subject even for SW major students. This difficulty occasionally causes SW major students to lose interest and confidence in their major during the introductory course of a programming language; making them change their majors, or give up their studies. In this study, we designed an instructional model using Scratch for educating C language which is a typical programming introductory language. To do this, we analyzed the concepts that can be trained by Scratch among the programming concepts supported by C language, and developed the examples of Scratch for exercising the concepts. The instructional model supports the progress model of learning first the programming concepts through Scratch and then expand the learning content into C language. We also conducted an experiment on the SW major freshman students of a local private university to verify the effectiveness of the model.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the effect of digital co-teaching between teachers online on improving students' reading literacy. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, a pre-test was conducted on first-year high school students, and a post-test was conducted after conducting the co-teaching over two sessions. For statistical analysis, the data of 101 students with no missing values in pre- and post-tests were used. Through the OECD's PISA reading literacy evaluation framework and factor analysis, a reading literacy test tool consisting of expression, comprehension, and information literacy was developed and the degree of change in reading literacy was measured through a self-report with the tool. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the digital co-teaching had a statistically significant positive effect on the expression, comprehension and information literacy of high school students. This study is meaningful in that it shows that digital co-teaching can be applied as a way to improve reading literacy in PISA organized by the OECD.

This paper deals with the analysis and comparison between on the course of a conventional engineering design (typically project-based learning) and a new engineering design (introduced PBL model to conventional engineering design). The purpose of the study is to identify and prove the effect of PBL model on the course with a new teaching-learning. In the result of t-test, there were significant statistics in the creative problem solving and self-directed learning ability, but no significant statistics in the team work and communication skill ability. Also the average of factors of the problem-based strategy is higher than those of the project-based strategy. In the problem-based strategy, the team work has the most influential on the satisfactory of the course. However in the project-based strategy, the comprehension of given product has the most influential on the satisfactory. Finally, this study has proved the effect of PBL on the course engineering design.
