The objective of this study is to find out the relation between infant teacher attachment or infant gesture and infant language development. The study was conducted with infants aged between 18 and 24 months and their 84 teachers of 63 home day care centers and infant day care centers in J city, Jeollabukdo. The results of the study are as follows. First, there was positive correlation between infant teacher attachment and infant language development. Looking at the types of infant teacher attachment showed that positive emotion, contact-seeking, self-sacrifice genialities, approach-seeking, solidarity, and expectation had positive correlation with receptive and expressive language, protection had positive correlation with receptive language, and only indifference had negative correlation with receptive language. Second, of sub-factors of infant gesture, directive gesture had negative correlation with receptive language, and customary and representational gesture had positive correlation with expressive language. Third, according to the results of the study of the effects of infant teacher attachment and infant gesture on infant language development, contact-seeking had the largest effect. Looking at the types of infant language development showed that contact-seeking had the largest effect on receptive language, and solidarity had the largest effect on expressive language. The results of the study showed that infant teacher attachment had larger effects on infant language development than infant gesture. It is expected to be used as useful materials to improve communicative abilities of infant teachers interacting with infants for infant language development.

The purpose of this study was to firstly, investigate the relationship between infants' communicative gestures, play and maternal responsiveness and secondly, to examine the role of maternal responsiveness in the associations between infants' communicative gestures and play. The subjects comprised 42 infants (21 boys and 21 girls) and their mothers. The infants' communicative gestures, the infants' play and maternal responsiveness were observed during free play sessions lasting 20 minutes. The results are as follows. Mothers of girls showed higher levels of responsiveness than the mothers of boys. In addition, here were positive correlations between infants' communicative gestures, play and maternal responsiveness. Maternal responsiveness was observed to moderate the effects of infants' communicative gestures on the infants' average level of play. These results indicate that it is important for caregivers to interpret infants' communicative intentions appropriately and respond promptly and adequately in play situations.

This study examined variability of gestures and their correlation with vocabulary acquisition in the communication of infants. Subjects were 96 infants, 7 to 24 months of age, residing in Seoul and its vicinity. Instruments were the Communication and Symbolic Behavior Scales (Iverson, et al., 1999) and the MacAuther Communicative Development Inventory-Korean (Bae and Lim, 2002). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Pearson's Correlation. Results identified monthly changes in types of communicative gesture used by infants: more deictic at younger and more representational at older ages. Deictic gestures were related to size of the receptive vocabulary and size of the whole vocabulary. Representational gestures were related to acquisition of expressive vocabulary, size of the receptive, and size of the whole vocabulary.

Korean infants' use of gesture was examined with 45 10-to 17-month olds. The mothers of infants were asked to check each word in the MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory-Korean (MCDI-K) vocabulary checklist if their infant had a gesture for a given word and to indicate what kind of early communicative behavior she showed in 5 different situations. The results show that infants in this study have 11 gestures, of which many are learned within the context of routines or games. Referential gestures were rarely reported. There was no positive correlation between the number of gestures and the number of expressive words. However, more qualitative measures on early communicative behaviors show that there was a positive correlation between "frequent use of gestures" and "try to communicate by verbal means".

This paper is a study of Gustav Deutsch's film (2013). The film transformed the painting of Edward Hopper into an homage film. So it gives the impression that the picture is moving. In this regard, it raises the issue of 'remediation' between film and pictures. In this study, We ask how (2013) dealt with the movement in turning Hopper's paintings into movies. To that end, To this end, we look at two aspects of movement: the actor's movement and the screen's movement. The concepts of "tableau vivant," Agamben's gesture and mediation were used in the process. The actor's movement in the film is not an act of making and developing events. It is a gesture that moves a person's body and expression itself. It is not a story-oriented acting, but a gesture that Giorgio Agamben said. Editing and camera movements are used while maintaining frontality. This suggests that the movement of the screen is the eye of the audience. At first glance, it embodies the voyeuristic gaze of the original work. However, But the audience isn't looking at the image unilaterally, as in mainstream fiction films, but they are also being seen by that image. Also, the camera's movement to take a closer look at the details of the screen shows the movement itself rather than the means to reveal the details. The 'vision of reality' in a film is made through movement. The film questions the vision of reality between painting and film, between words and images. The move is a means of mediating reality, but the film is regaining the "lost gesture" that Giorgio Agamben once said by revealing its mediated nature. This tells us that the vision of reality appears when it obscures its mediated nature.

The language and the gestures of a teacher, generally, have a great influence on the effect of a lesson. This is because subject content is transferred to students by teachers' language and gestures. In the science lessons which focus on experiments, the language and gestures of both students and teachers will help the learning of scientific content. However, the role of gestures, despite its importance, has rarely been investigated in science education research. The role of gestures of students and teachers is a much needed area of study. This study investigated the gestures observed in the experimental process performed by students who participated in a science exploration activity. Students' gestures play an essential role in the successful performance of the experiment. and they could function as a process of solving the contradictory situation. In addition, the demonstration and the communication of gestures should be performed very cautiously. There were a number of implications for the long-standing problem of the relation between the understanding of science concepts and the performance of experiments.

This research, to find the cultural identity of taekwondo, presents the historical origin of taekwondo in lights of Choi-centric theory, kwan-centric theory, karate inflow theory, and successive traditional martial arts theory. Then it investigates taekwondo's inner identity as a Korean traditional martial art according to presence, popularity, and independence, three factors of identity suggested by Tak, S. S.(2000).As a result, it reached these conclusions: First, taekwondo was formed after going through fusion of Hong Hi Choi, karate income in period of cultural severance during Japanese occupation, the first kwan leaders and Korean traditional martial arts, process of disorder and cultural reproduction. Second, taekwondo has essentially inherited and developed Korean barehanded martial arts' movements that lay stress on foot skills, and this distinguishes it from hand-skill-based Japan's karate and China's Wushu Furthermore, trunk/groin protectors and headgears are blended remarkably with taeguk patterns and traditional Colors of Five Directions. All terms rendered into pure Korean words shows the essence of Korean localization. It is therefore concluded that Koreans should, along with trying to overcome exclusive nationalism as a country of origin, build a new paradigm of establishing an identity as a global martial art sport.
