The purpose of this study is to analyze the problems of rock specimens used for science education in elementary schools and to provide improvements of them. For the study, 20 sets of rock specimens were randomly selected from the five elementary schools in K city of Gyeongbuk Province and they were photographed and investigated. Also three elementary school teachers with more than 5 years of scientific career were interviewed. As a result, the sets of rock specimens that reflected the elementary curriculum were only 10%. The sets of rock specimens had many problems as follows: they were purchased a long time ago (up to 30 years), information presented in the nameplate and documentation was errorneous, some of rock specimens were too small and they did not show typical characteristics for education. In addition, the purchase and verification procedures of rock specimens were often neglected. With lack of interest and knowledge of teachers and lack of information about rock specimens, it was difficult to purchase good rock specimens for education. To improve the situation, a set of rock specimens should be verified by experts and should reflect the contents of curriculum and textbooks thoroughly. A manual of rock specimens is provided for science education in elementary schools.

This study was on the rock garden among the school gardens as survey of 122 schools(60 elementary schools, 34 middle schools and 28 high schools) during 16 months from March 2017 to June 2018, There were 36 rock gardens (29.51%). 40% elementary schools and 18.18% secondary schools (middle and high schools) had the rock gardens. 3 items were surveyed; Was the rock sample in the rock garden related to the curriculum? Was the name of sample correct? Was the content of a sample's exhibition panel suitable? Elementary schools showed 36.7% in response to 'Was the rock sample in the rock garden related to the curriculum', 55.1% in response to 'Was the name of sample correct?' and 55.5% in response to 'Was the content of a sample's exhibition panel suitable?' Secondary schools showed the average 83.9% correlation in the aspect of curriculum, 82.8% accuracy in the aspect of sample name and 84.1% suitability in the aspect of the content of a sample's exhibition panel.

A major deficiency of laboratory testing of rock structure is that the structures are limited in size and therefore present a very small and highly selective sample of the rock mass from which were removed. In a typical engineering project, the samples tested in the laboratory represent only a very small fraction of one percent of the volume of the rock mass. In this paper, we calculate the representative orientation of the resultant vector, the measure of the degree of clustering, the volume of rock mass, the trace length of discontinuity spacing under underlying distributions. And we generate the random fracture networks using real data. We propose the calculating the trace length.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the classifying ability of the igneous rocks with the naked eye for 36 preservice science teachers. For this, we selected six specimens of igneous rocks that consisted of rhyolite, andesite, basalt, granite, diorite, and gabbro, and performed the questionnaire with them. Preservice science teachers needed the average of 3 tools to classify the rocks. Most of the selected tools were loupe, streak plate, hammer and Mohs’ hardness scale. Many preservice science teachers selected basalt and granite samples to classify igneous rocks among 6 kinds of the rocks which were exhibited. However, the results of the identification with the naked eye showed that the right answer rate was significantly different based on what rock sample had been selected. Nobody gave the right answer among 10 students who chose the rhyolite sample, but all of 36 students who picked the basalt sample answered correctly. And $62\%$ of 8 students who chose the andesite sample, 62% of 32 student choosing granite, $7\%$ of 13 students choosing diorite and $44\%$ of 9 students choosing gabbro were correctly answered. In identifying igneous rock samples with the naked eye, most subjects relied on vesicular texture to basalt, and they used textural, color and empirical characters to granite. But, some felt more or less difficulty to distinguish between intermediate and light colors and to recognize porphyry.

몽골의 수도 울란바토르의 중심부에 위치한 몽골 자연사박물관은 1924년 국립박물관으로 개관한 후 1954년 현재의 건물로 이전하여 공룡화석을 비롯한 희귀한 자연사 표본들이 전시되고 있다. 1층에는 다양한 광물 및 암석표본이, 2층에는 7천만년 전의 각종 실물 공룡화석 등이 눈길을 끈다. 또 3층에는 몽골에서 서식하는 사슴ㆍ낙타ㆍ곰 등이 전시되고 있다.

서울시 북동부의 서울화강암에 대한 암반 공학적 특성 중 터널과 도로 건설시 중요하게 취급되는 절리의 방향성, 절리간격, 절리밀도, 암석의 일축압축강도, 그리고 RQD 값을 수락산과 불암산지역으로 구분하여 비교, 분석하였다. 이 중 절리의 방향성, 절리간격과 절리밀도는 선조사법, 원형조사법, 그리고 면적조사법을 이용하여 야외에서 직접 측정하였다. 암석의 일축압축강도와 RQD의 측정은 시추코아의 표본이 필요하지만 이번 연구에서는 간단히 응용할 수 있는 대비공식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 측정된 대표적인 절리의 방향성은 두 지역에서 모두 3조의 방향성이 나타났으며 즉 2조의 수직정방절리와 저각으로 경사하는 1조의 판상절리로 판명되었으며 두 지역에서 서로 유사한 방향성을 갖는다. 측정된 절리밀도는 0.039-0.066/cm이었으며, 평균절리길이는 1.30-4.52m, 그리고 평균절리간격은 10.3cm에서 최대 59.6cm로 측정된 절리의 방향에 따라 변화가 심하다 또한 슈미트 해머 타격값에 근거한 절리면의 일축압축강도는 217 MPa에서 335 MPa로 매우 강한 암체였으며, 평균절리간격에 기초하여 계산된 이론적 RQD 값은 73.1-98.7%의 값을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

1986년 9월 30일부터 1987년 4월 24일까지의 조사기간에 제두도의 12개 지소에서 채집한 표본들과 조사기간 이전에 추자군도를 포함한 제두도 해역에서 채집된 미동정 표본들을 동정하고 문헌상의 기록들을 종합하여 제주도 해역 집게류의 분류목록을 작성하였다. 이 분류목록에는 9과 34종이 포함되어 있다. 이 중에서 제주도 해역 미기록종은 2종이었고 Dardanus pedunculatus(Herbst)는 한국 미기록종이므로 새로이 기재하고 그림도 작성하였다. 제주도 해역의 집게류 34종은 한국기지종 58종의 58.6%에 해당되며 34종 중에서 17종(50%)은 제주도 해역에서만 기록되었다. 34종 중 7종(20.6%)이 남방형이었고, 34종 중 서식처가 밝혀진 24종주에서 사질과 암석 바닥에 서식하는 종이 18종(75%)이었다. 이와 같은 사실들은 제주도 해역의 해황과 제주도 연안의 저질과 일치한다.

Analysis of correlation and behavior characteristics at elastic wave velocity have studied on Korean rock data after checking population size and Chi-square method. Behavior characteristics are quite different from each rock and mechanical parameters at elastic wave velocity. This study shows it is necessary to analize correlation to rock behavior characteristics for correct answer from natural rock.

The purpose of this study was to explore the learning effects in elementary school students who participated in a geological field trip conducted under the theme 'minerals and rocks', focusing on novelty space. A total of 10 sixth-grade students participated in this program held at a public elementary school in Seoul as part of after-school club activities. Students observed mineral and rock samples in a classroom and outdoor learning environment. The authors collected activity papers (texts, drawing), researchers' participation notes, video and audio recordings containing the study participants' activities, and post-interview data To analyze the learning effects in the cognitive domain of students, the observation analysis framework for rock classification of Remmen and Frøyland (2020) and the rock description analysis framework of Oh (2020) were used. Additionally, to explore the learning effects of psychological and geographic areas, students' drawings, texts, discourses, and interview data were inductively analyzed. The results showed that the students demonstrated 'everyday' and 'transitional' observations in the classroom learning environment, while in the outdoor learning environment (school playground, community-based activities), they demonstrated 'transitional' and 'scientific' observations. Moreover, as the scientific observation stage progressed, more types of descriptive words for rocks were used. In terms of psychological and geographic aspects, students showed their selection of places to explore familiar outdoor learning environments, positive perceptions of outdoor learning, and aesthetic appreciation. Finally, this study not only discussed novelty space as a tool for analyzing students' learning effects but also suggested the need for an academic approach considering new learning environments, such as learning through virtual field trips.
