The purpose of the study is to identify the accessibility of OpenCouresWare(OCW) from the perspective of college students with visual and hearing impairments. Six students with visual impairments(3 blind and 3 low vision) and four students with hearing impairments(2 deaf, 2 hard of hearing) implemented usability testing. Two modules in KOCW were selected for testing. Students implemented usability testing and then each individual case was analyzed through quantitative and qualitative methods. As results, the degree of usability and accessibility in two modules indicated low level. Implications and recommendations for designing OCW module based on the results were suggested.

공간 능력 및 공간 시각화 능력의 향상은 우리가 살고 있는 세계를 표현하고 설명하는데 도움을 주고 실생활과 직업에 관련된 문제해결 능력을 기를 수 있게 한다. 초등학교에서는 비형식적인 방법으로 일상생활에서 접하는 대상과 다른 구체적 자료를 사용한 조사, 실험, 탐구를 통하여 여러 위치에서 도형을 시각화하고, 그려보고, 비교하는 활동을 강조하고 있다. 제7차 수학과 교육과정에서 공간능력 및 공간 시각화 능력을 향상시키기 위한 학습으로 구체적 조작물과 학습지 사용을 병행하고 있다. 하지만 초등 기하는 공간적인 경험을 현실 상황이나 구체물 조작을 통하여 형성된 공간직관을 수학화하도록 하여야 하나, 실제 현장에서는 학교여건 등의 여러 실정으로 조작 자료들이 제대로 마련되어 있지 않거나 잘 사용하지 않고 있다. 3차원을 경험할 수 있는 공간 시각화 학습프로그램을 적극 활용하여 어떤 방향이든 상관없이 가상의 공간에서 물체를 옮기거나 회전시킬 수 있으며 시간적, 공간적 제약을 받지 않고 학습자들의 공간시각화 능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 학습 프로그램 개발이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이런 요구에 의해 아동과의 상호 작용성과 접근성을 향상시킨 웹기반 가상현실 프로그램을 개발하고 그 효과 분석을 통해 웹 기반 가상현실 학습 프로그램에 대한 가능성을 진단해 보고자 한다.

In this paper, we suggest an information retrieval visualization tool using the knowledge representation method. Information retrieval visualization tool suggested in this paper is designed to automatically extract retrieval intention using user's search history data and visualize extracted retrieval intention in the knowledge representation method structure. A psychological knowledge representation methodology was adopted for schema for retrieval intention representation and its effectiveness has been proved through the behavioral experiments. Result of experiment revealed that information retrieval visualization tool has been improved approximately 39% in user satisfaction compared to existing retrieval method, suggesting a measure to solve re-retrieval problem in the process of information retrieval.

Human visual attention system has a remarkable ability to interpret complex scenes with the ease and simplicity by selecting or focusing on a small region of visual field without scanning the whole images. In this paper, a novel feature map generation and integration method for attention based visual information processing system is proposed. The depth information obtained from a stereo pair of images is exploited as one of spatial visual features to form a set of topographic feature maps in our approach. Comparative experiments show that correct detection rate of visual attention regions improves by utilizing depth feature compared to the case of not using depth feature.

Recently in algebra curriculum, to recognizes and explains general nile expressing patterns is presented as the one alternative and is emphasized. In the seventh School Mathematic Curriculum regarding 'regularity and function' area, in elementary school curriculum, is guiding pattern activity of various form. But difficulty and problem of students are pointing in study for learning through pattern activity. In this article, emphasizes generalization process through research activity of pictorial/geometric pattern that is introduced much on elementary school mathematic curriculum and investigates various approach and strategy of student's thinking, state of symbolization in generalization process of pictorial/geometric pattern. And discusses generalization of pictorial/geometric pattern, difficulty of symbolization and suggested several proposals for research activity of pictorial/geometric pattern.

The purpose of this study is to explore a teaching method of limits of functions with more intuitive and visual of CAS graphing calculators rather than with the rigorous ${\epsilon}-{\delta}$ method. Texas Instruments Voyage200 CAS graphing calculators are used for studying the possibility of the use of technology in calculus course. For this, various related theoretical constructs are reviewed: concept image, concept definition, cognitive conflict, the use of visualization of technology for calculus concepts, the theory of APOS, and local straightness. Based on such theoretical constructs this study suggests a teaching method of limits of functions with embodied visualization of CAS graphing calculators.

Current traffic guidance system offers the information of traffic light using a speaker to everybody including the blinds without object certification. Therefore, the current system gives stress by noisy sound to normal person. It is difficult for the blind to hear informations such as location, current traffic sign light status, and weather information, because of the vehicle noise and surroundings noise. If the blind or sight disabled person who has the RFID tag or has a white stick with RFID tag approaches to street crossing, RFID reader recognizes the tag and it serves necessary information through speaker or bluetooth. And also it is possible for the blind to use less expensive one with RFID tag than the white stick with RFID Reader.

이 논문에서는 육상교통 환경에서 GPS 가시 위성의 수가 부족할 경우 사용자 위치 결정 성능 향상을 위해 시각도움정보를 이용하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. GPS를 이용하여 정확한 위치를 구하기 위해서는 위성으로부터 송출된 신호가 수신기까지 도달하는데 걸린 시간을 정확히 구하는 것이 가장 중요한다. 이를 위하여 위성과 수신기 간의 시각이 정확히 동기가 되어야 하지만 대부분 저가 발진기를 사용하는 수신기의 측정치에는 수신기 시계오차가 포함되어 있다. GPS 측정치로부터 정확한 위치결정을 위해서는 수신기 시계 오차가 고려되어야 하기에 최소 4개의 위성이 필요하지만 건물, 차량, 나무 등의 장애물의 영향을 받는 육상교통 환경에서는 4개 미만의 위성이 관측되는 경우가 종종 발생한다. 이러한 경우 정상적인 방법으로 수신기 시계오차가 계산되지 않아 위치 결정 성능이 떨어지게 되므로, 시각도움정보를 활용하여 위치 결정 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 제안한 방법의 시각도움정보는 가시 위성이 4개 이상의 경우 결정된 수신기 시계오차를 수신기 시계 고정법을 적용하여 생성하였다. 가시 위성수가 3개로 결정된 위치 결과와 시각도움정보를 적용하여 결정된 위치와의 비교를 통해 위치 성능이 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

This study was to analyze the visual preference of the port landscapes for North port in Busan. Preference related variables came from Semantic Differential(SD) method and then were conducted by the factor analysis. Multiple regression was done for the relationship between the preference and factors. The result found 4 factors, including dynamics, stability, pleasantness and healthiness. Much importance was placed on dynamics among them. Therefore, building port landscapes and their image attracting viewers should consider dynamics in terms of port landscape plan and user attraction development for visual quality management.
