The purpose of this study was to develop teaching-learning plans for the 7th grade technology-home economics classes, applying situated learning theory. In addition, the effect of developed teaching-learning plans were examined, in terms of students' perception and attitude toward clothing habits and the degree of satisfaction with the lessons. In order to carry out the research, the teaching-learning plans for the 3 lessons on "clothing and self-expression" unit were developed. Experimental study was done at a middle school in Seoul to examine the effect of the teachig-learning plans developed based on the situated learning theory. Two classes taught with the developed teaching-learning plans served as a experiment group, and another two classes taught with traditional lecture-based plans served as a control group. As a result, teaching-learning plans developed based on situated learning theory had a positive impact on students' satisfaction with the lessons and the perception and attitude toward clothing habits.

This study selected and utilized the 'Naver post' as an e-book production tool to be used for learning. The production of such SNS format e-books aimed at founding out its effect on learning attitude and academic achievement by stimulating interest and confidence in the learning of the students. To accomplish such an aim, the study selected 50 students from two classes in the fourth grade of a public elementary school. One class of 25 students went through a social studies lesson that applied SNS type e-book production activities, and the other class of 25 students underwent a regular social studies lesson as the comparative group. The major results of the study's analysis is SNS type e-book production did not significantly improve academic achievement in social studies, but SNS type e-book production significantly improved the learning attitude during social studies.

This study investigated the effects of group processing in cooperative learning using task-oriented reward on students' science achievement, science learning motivation, and attitude toward science instruction. Eighth graders (N=58) selected from a middle school in Seoul, were randomly assigned to either the treatment or comparison group, and taught on the 'Separation of Mixture' over 8 class hours. The treatment group received cooperative learning using task-oriented reward containing group processing (GCL), while the comparison group received cooperative learning using task-oriented reward without group processing (CL). Significant interactions between the instruction and prior achievement level were found in the achievement and the attitude toward science instruction. High-level students in the GCL group performed better than those in the CL group, while low-level students in the CL group performed better than their counterparts.

We consider a Direct Input Output Manufacturing System(DIOMS) which has a munber of machine centers placed along a built-in Automated Storage/Retrieval System(AS/RS). The Storage/Retrieval (S/R) machine handles parts placed on pallets for the operational aspect of DIOMS and determines the optimal operating policy by combining computer simulation and genetic algorithm. The operational problem includes: input sequencing control, dispatching rule of the S/R machine, machine center-based part type selection rule, and storage assignment policy. For each operating policy, several different policies are considered based on the known research results. In this paper, using the computer simulation and genetic algorithm we suggest a method which gives the optimal configuration of operating policies within reasonable computation time.

Recently, there has been a growing demand for school libraries to take on the role of curriculum convergence and content development. This study purposed to develop a program that integrates reading activities and artificial intelligence (AI) education in a middle school library as a platform for convergence education. The program aimed to enhance creative problem-solving skills by integrating an understanding of AI concepts and principles through reading activities related to AI topics. The program, comprising 18 sessions (6 modules), was implemented with 36 first-year students at A Middle School, Gyeonggi-do, in 2022. After implementation, a paired-sample t-test revealed significant improvements in AI learning self-efficacy and creative problem-solving skills. Participants also showed positive attitudes toward class engagement and reading activities. Implications for AI convergence education in connection with school libraries were discussed.

The purpose of this study was to develop 'the problem situations' for the Problem Based Learning(PBL) and to examine it's effects on the science achievement and the attitude towards science learning. Also the students' perception on the PBL model was examined. The topics of the problem situations developed were 'the future energy for reducing the green house effect' and 'the Indonesian forest fire and the El Nino'. The coaching strategies for the PBL were designed and implemented to 10th grade high school students in the science classes, the results are follows; First, the science achievement of the group of PBL is significantly higher than those of group of traditional teaching. Second, the scores of the test of attitude toward science learning of the group of PBL is significantly higher than those of group of traditional teaching. Third, the students' perception of the PBL was positive. Many students have interests and motivations in PBL, some students have difficulties in learning on the PBL. In the students' personal reflection notes the step of a problem statement is the hardest one of the PBL model. Therefore, this study suggests that developing the problem situations based on real context is of great importance for implementing a problem based learning model continuously.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of research project activities using the science writing heuristic on science inquiry abilities and attitudes toward science in high school students. For this purpose, we conducted the research project activities using the science writing heuristic consisting of questioning, experimental design, observation, argument and evidence, reading, and reflection steps for 73 students of the second year of science core course in high school in Jeonnam. In order to analyze the effects of the program, we surveyed the scientific inquiry ability and attitude toward science, investigated the perception of the research project class applying science writing heuristic, and conducted interviews when there was difficulty in interpreting the results. And the results of this study are as follows. First, among the science inquiry abilities, the score of Reasoning, Hypothesis setting, Finding variables, Operational definition, Experimental design, Graphing and data interpretation, Generalization was significantly improved statistically (p<.05), but the score of Expectation was not statistically significant (p>.05). Second, among the attitudes toward science, the score of 'Leisure interest in science', 'Enjoyment of science lessons', 'Career interest in science' was significantly improved statistically (p<.05). And the score of 'Attitude to scientific inquiry' decreased but it's not significant statistically. The high school research project applying science writing heuristic had a positive effect on scientific inquiry ability and scientific attitude but it could be burden to students because it is led by students in a form different from general science class for a long time. And so continuous study on research project that minimize these disadvantages and maximize their merits is needed.

An increasing number of educators emphasize the affective domain in learning. Affective and cognitive objectives interact and can not be separated from each other. Good emotions and feelings assist students achieving optimally in the cognitive domain. Emotional intelligence harmonizes well with an affective science curriculum. The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of EQ(Emotional quotient) improvement program on students' EQ, science achievement, the science related attitudes, and science anxiety. A pretest-posttest control group design was employed. Subjects were 168 male and female first grade students in a middle school. A control group was instructed with a traditional teaching method, and an experimental group was instructed using EQ improvement program. Two groups were treated for 42 hours during 14 weeks. Two way ANCOVA and correlation analysis was performed using the SPSS. The results indicated that students who received EQ program got higher EQ and their science anxiety was lowered than students who were in a control group(p<.05). EQ program was not significantly effective on science attitude than the traditional instruction but, in the domain 'the enjoyment of science class' it was effective(p<.05). EQ program was significantly effective on students' achievement than the traditional instruction(p<.05).
