This study aims at identifying what effect ARCS model based instruction and cognitive style have on learning motivation and achievement in computer education. In order to accomplish this goal. 70 high school students were randomly allocated into the experiment group and the control group. And each group was divided into field-independent group and field-dependent group. The results were as follows. First, post test of learning motivation among four groups showed that mean differences were statistical significant. Especially 'ARCS model based instruction-field independent group got higher score than 'traditional instruction field dependent' group. Second, post test of learning achievement showed no significant mean difference among four group. The result of the pre and post test difference analysis showed that the change scores of means were significantly different.

Annual gametogenic cycle of Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum collected from Shi-Heung-Ri beach in Jeju was investigated for the 12 month period from May 2001 to April 2002. Water temperature varied from 10 to 27$^{\circ}C$ and salinity from 27 to 35 psu during the course of study. Most of the clams collected in March were in indifferent or in early developing indicating that clams initiated gametogenesis when water temperature becomes 14 to 15$^{\circ}C$. In early June, most of the clams were in developing, expanding follicles and exhibiting growing oocytes. Fully ripe gonads were observed in clams collected during late June to early August. Spawning clams were observed as early as in early June although the spawning activity reached its maximum in early August. Condition index (CI) was rapidly increased from July to early August and then dropped in late August, indicating that most of clams in Shi-Heung-Ri beach spawn in late summer when water temperature was within a range of 25 to 27$^{\circ}C$.

Non-nucleus Abalone half pearls were cultured by a new technique and their structural characteristics were analyzed using an electron microscopy. This technique was found to grow the pearls depending on the shape of the internal organ of an abalone because this technique induces the pearl layers without adding any nucleus on the specified damage region of a shell. The obtained pearls exhibit natural shapes with a specific luster. The SEM analysis shows that the pearl layers are about $0.34{\mu}m$ with an uniform thickness and the surface of the shell is characterized by the pyramid-shaped bulge with a regular arrangement, which is a typical feature of single-shell. These characteristics of the pearls are thought to develop in the highly-valued Korean gems.

This paper introduces to a simple culture method and growth of axenic (bacteria-free) rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis for seed stock of rotifer mass culture. This rotifer axenic culture method is based on the washing and transferring with sterilized sea water and modified antibiotic mixture AM9 solution. Population growth (final density on day 16) of axenic cultured rotifer were maintained with a high density and stable growth compared with the control of non-axenic culture (general culture style) through the 3 times-rerunning experiments (trial 1, 2 and 3). But the egg carrying rates of amictic females were not different between the axenic-and non-axenic culture condition. Although, rotifer density was higher in axenic culture, the food (Nannochloropsis oculata) was still remained unutilized than that of the non-axenic culture in third trial culture. These results suggest the possible existence of harmful bacteria for the rotifer population growth in the trial 1 and 3 of non-axenic culture compared to the trial 2. This axenic rotifer culture method is valuable for seed stock of the stable rotifer mass cultures.

In the fish oil forced oxidized at 6$0^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, changes in the levels of peroxide (POV), anisidine (AnV), total oxidation (Totox), iodine (IV), acid (AV) and fatty acids composition were measured. The levels of POV, AnV and Totox remained unchanged or decreased after reaching the maximum. The concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) such as Docosa hexaenoic acid (DHA) or Eicosa pentaenoic acid (EPA) decreased with extended oxidation of fish oil. In saturated fatty acids (SFA) like C16:0, their concentration increased with decreasing PUFA. The ratios of PUFA/SFA and DHA/C16:0 decreased with extended oxidation of fish oil. Using a single parameter of POV, AnV, Totox, AV, IV, or fatty acids for evaluation of the quality of fish oil may prove difficult. Besides other parameters, the ratios of PUFA/SFA and/or DHA/C16:0 could be a good index to evaluate the quality of fish oil.

Hybird and allotriploid between female rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and male coho salmon (O. kisutch) were produced by artificial fertilization and heat shocks. Hatching and survival rate of allotriploid at 2 month after hatching was $77.6\%$ and $54.5\%$ respectively, and these rates clearly exceeded those of their hybrid. Cell and nuclear sizes of the erythrocyte of hybrid were intermidiate of their parents and those of allotriploid were larger than thier hybird. The somatic chromosome number of viable hybrid was 2n = 60 and that of allotriploid was $90\~93$ with chromosomal polymorphism. Allotriploid karyotpe was constituted by two sets of rainbow trout chromosome and one set of coho salmon chromosome.

An experiment was performed to obtain cryopreservation techniques of starry flounder (Platichthys stellatus) sperm. Milt obtained from 24 males were cryopreserved using two diluents, artificial seminal plasma (ASP) and Stein's solution (SS) with three cryoprotectants, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol, and glycerol concentrated from 5% to 20%. Post-thaw sperm activity (motility and/or speed) revealed the highest in 10% DMSO and 15% methanol in ASP and SS as diluent. Motility and speed of cryopreserved sperm were decreased according to increase of glycerol concentration. To conclude, DMSO was a better cryoprotectant than methanol or glycerol for cryopreservation of starry flounder sperm. Glycerol was incongruent cryoprotectant because of toxic to starry flounder sperm. Most cryopreserved spermatozoa without cryoprotectant showed the enlarged head with granulated chromatin and ruptured plasma membrane by freezing and thawing injuries compared with unfrozen normal spermatozoa.

Viability, early growth and sex ratio of induced gynogenetic diploid bagrid catfish (Leiocassis ussuriensis, Siluriformes) were examined. Survival rates of gynogenetic diploids and normal bi-parental diploids up to 180 days post hatching were not significantly different (P>0.05), and consequently resulted the mean percent survivals of 76% (gynogens) and 78% (bi-parental progeny) at the end of growth trial. Growth in both body weight and total length of gynogenetic diploids was also similar to those of normal diploid controls (P>0.05). Gynogenetic bagrid catfish displayed a similar level of ovarian development when compared to bi-parental diploid females, as judged at 10 weeks post hatching. Sex ratio of bi-parental progeny was normal 1:1 whereas all-femaleness was observed in gynogenetic progeny (P<0.05), suggesting that the genetic sex determination mechanism of this species should be XX-XY based female homogamety.

Sensitivity to ethylmethanesulphonate(EMS) on Ulva Pertusa Kjellman thalli was investigated as preliminary studies aimed at mutation breeding of seaweeds. When the thalli were grown in medium containing the mutagen no growth and about $20{\%}$ growth inhibition occurred at $0.05{\%}$ and $0.025{\%}$ EMS-mixed medium respectively. In the case the thalli were treated short time at high concentration mutagen solution followed by culture in control medium no growth and about $10{\%}$ growth inhibition occurred at 40 min. in $1.0{\%}$ and 80 min. in $0.5{\%}$ EMS solution respectively. Among the mutagenized tissues, some showed variation in growth from and cell color contrast to the mother tissue. The mutagenized tissue polypeptide pattern using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was simiiar that of the mother tissue except about 6.6 kD polypeptides.

To improve the efficiency of biological filters used for treating recycled wastewater of aquaculture, the conventional and advanced DynaSand Filters were tested. Applying the fluid mechanics and physical chemistry theories to wastewater treatment plant, the advanced filter focuses on detection of wastewater characteristics and automatic operation of DynaSand Filter to improve backwashing, oxygen transport, turbidity removal and continuous head loss. The Filter removes COD, ammonia, and suspended solids (SS), the major pollutants in aquaculture wastewater. The total volume of the DynaSand Filter is 70 L, while the working volume is 35 L per cycle. The removal efficiency of the advanced DynaSand Filter is 71 % for SS (as against 55 % for the conventional filter), 84 % for ammonia, 85 % for T-P, and 88 % for SRP.
