The purpose of this study is to develop cognitive scaffolding tools and to explore their effects on integrated science process skills of high school students. For this purpose, we developed cognitive scaffolding tools including one kind of classroom instruction for training integrated process skills and two kinds of individual learning materials that students can selectively study according to their level of inquiry ability. In addition, we developed hypothetico-deductive inquiry tasks as a tool to investigate the level of students on the integrated process skills for pre-test and post-test respectively. In order to verify the effectiveness of the cognitive scaffolding tools, we conducted inferential statistics on the pre-and post-tests of the experimental group and control group to examine statistical significance of students' inquiry level change depending on the usage of the cognitive scaffolding tools. We also produced Wrightmaps based on Rasch model to compare the change of inquiry ability depending on usage of the cognitive scaffolding tools. As a result, the experimental group using the cognitive scaffolding tools showed a significantly higher scores in all the components of integrated process skills namely, designing inquiry, collecting data, analyzing data, and forming conclusion than the control group. In addition, students who used cognitive scaffolding tools improved their inquiry ability and showed a distinct transition to higher level in each component of the integrated process skills. The results of this study suggest that high school students need cognitive scaffolding to alleviate or eliminate the functional barriers they face in conducting scientific inquiries.

In using lecture evaluation methods to improve the quality of education, most universities need to reflect the changes in the educational environment. The transformation of university education into a mixed learning environment blending face-to-face education and online education necessitates the development of appropriate lecture evaluation items. For this purpose, we analyzed the items and the factor analysis for the students of C university in Daejeon. The primary data were carried out with 47 measurement items in 10 domains, such as planning and preparation of lectures, which were found through previous research analysis. Secondary data were validated by using the items confirmed through analysis of preliminary test data. The study results showed that 20 items including six domains such as planning and preparation of lectures, learning materials, learning tasks, instruction media, online course test and grades were derived. These study results suggest that universities lectures should be evaluated to ensure improvement.

Climate change is the issue that attracts the most attention in the field of environment, as well as the most challenging task faced by the human race. There are various ways to resolve this issue. South Korea has established the primary and secondary national climate change adaptation plans at the national level, and is making it compulsory for each local government (lower and municipal-level) to establish climate change adaptation plans. Climate change vulnerability assessment plays an essential role in establishing climate change adaptation action plans. However, vulnerability assessment has a difficulty performing individual assessments since the results are produced through complex calculations of multiple impact factors. Accordingly, this study developed a web-based supporting tool(VESTAP) for climate change vulnerability assesment that can be used by lower and municipal-level local governments. The VESTAP consists of impact DB and vulnerability assessment and display tool. The index DB includes total 455 impacts of future climate data simulated with RCP (Representative Concentration Pathways) 4.5 and 8.5, atmospheric environment data, other humanities and social statistics, and metadata. The display tool has maximized convenience by providing various analytical functions such as spatial distribution, bias and schematization of each vulnerability assessment result. A pilot test of health vulnerability assessment by particulate matters in Sejong Metropolitan Autonomous City was performed using the VESTAP, and Bukang-myeon showed the highest vulnerability. By using the developed tool, each local government is expected to be able to establish climate change adaptation action plans more easily and conveniently based on scientific evidence.

The systematic testing is frequently regretted in recent web applications because of time and cost pressure. Moreover developers have difficulties with applying the traditional testing techniques to testing web application. The approach of creating test cases for a web application from a sequence model is proposed for the rapid and efficient testing. Test cases for web application are extracted from call messages (including self-call messages) of UML (Unified Modeling Language) sequence diagram. A test case consists of messages, script functions, or server pages and additional values. Moreover a simple testing tool for web application is proposed. A URL for testing web application is created and executed by this testing tool. The URL consists of server page address and additional values. This test tool is made using Microsoft Visual Basic. The efficiency of proposed method and tool has been shown using a practical case study which reflects the development project of the web application for supporting member management.

최근 수학교육에서는 네덜란드의 수학교육이론인 현실적 수학교육(Realistic Mathematics Education: 이하 RME) 이론에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. RME 이론의 관점에서 학생들은 만들어져 있는 수학을 수용하는 사람이 아니라 스스로 모든 종류의 수학적 도구와 통찰을 개발하는 활동적 참여자로서 다루어져야 한다. 따라서 수학 학습은 수학화될 수 있는 풍부한 맥락으로부터 시작해야하며, 이러한 수학화를 실제(reality)에 둘 수 있도록 기여할 수 있는 교재로 시작해야 한다. 최근 발간된 'Mathematics In Context(이하 MIC)'는 RME 이론을 반영한 중등학교용 교과서로 맥락 문제가 그 중심이 되고 있으므로 RME 이론의 구체화된 실제를 볼 수 있는 예가 될 수 있다. 지금까지 Freudenthal의 교육철학을 소개하는 문헌 연구를 비롯하여 RME 이론을 기반으로 하는 교수 학습의 효과 분석에 관한 연구가 초등학교를 중심으로 이루어지고 있으나 중등학교 이상의 수준에서 수행된 RME 관련 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 RME 이론이 중등학교 이상에서 수행되는 예를 찾기 위해 MIC 대수 교과서 중 'Comparing Quantities(Kindt, Abels, Meyer, & Pligge, 1998)'를 중심으로 Treffers(1991)의 다섯 가지 교수 학습 원리(구성하기와 구체화하기, 여러 가지 수준과 모델, 반성과 특별한 과제, 사회적 맥락과 상호작용, 구조화와 연결성)가 어떻게 구현되고 있는지 살펴보고자 한다. RME의 수학 학습 이론은 학생들이 맥락과 모델을 사용하면서 다양한 수준의 수학화를 통해서 자신의 수학을 개발할 수 있도록 하는 것이다. MIC 교과서는 맥락 문제와 여러 가지 해결 전략을 제시함으로써 그러한 수학 수업을 할 수 있도록 안내하는 교재가 될 수 있다.

영재교육의 목표는 개인의 자아실현 및 국가 사회에 이바지하는 인재를 양성하는 데 있다. 그러나 그 동안 우리의 영재교육이 지적인 영역에 치중한 결과, 우리나라 영재의 리더십 수준은 미국의 일반 학생과 비슷하다는 분석이 제기되기도 하였다. 지적능력만 뛰어난 영재는 현대사회에서 요구하는 타인을 배려하고 소통하며 합리적 의사결정을 내릴 수 있는 인재상과는 거리가 멀다. 이에 본 논문에서는 정보영재를 위한 리더십 교육 프로그램을 개발하고 그 도구로 SNS를 활용하였다. SNS는 다양한 자료를 검색, 공유할 수 있고 사람사이의 관계 맺기, 타인과의 소통을 기반으로 하기에 리더십 교육의 목표 실현에 적합한 특징을 지녔고, 컴퓨터나 인터넷 등 첨단 기기의 사용을 즐기는 정보 영재의 특성과도 일치하는 도구이기 때문이다. 유투브, 위키피디아, 트위터 등의 SNS를 사용하여 동영상을 제작하고 간단한 메시지로 타인과 소통하며, 위키에서 협업하여 과제를 수행해나가는 과정을 통해 대인관계와 조직능력, 타인과 공동체 배려 등 리더십이 향상될 것으로 기대한다.

In this study, learning materials that can be applied for web-based distant learning model were developed based on the characteristics of elementary school science in which investigation skills and thinking ability are considered to be important. And the effect of students' activity in a discussion room on student's investigating and thinking ability was investigated. Through very active on-line discussion, students showed their ability to come up with new ideas and to design and implement diverse experimental methods. Especially, since all of the study tasks given to the students were aimed to utilize experimental means and tools that are so common in everyday life, shortfalls that might reside in the web-based distant learning program could be overcome and students' investigative activity might be stimulated.
