The importance of students' precise understanding of mathematical definitions, formulas, and theorems can not be underestimated. In this survey research, we attempted to evaluate students' understanding of the concepts of five topics -limit, continuity and intermediate theorem, derivative, application of derivative and integral. On the basis of the research result, this paper suggests that we need to 1) be more inventive and speculative in making test problems, 2) explain the examples and counter-examples more concretely, 3) stress and repeat the basic concepts on the stage of introducing new concepts, 4) develop more effective problems for the measure of students' understanding of mathematical concepts, 5) use developed problems in actual teaching.

This study is to explain understanding types about the concept of a 'Region' in the 3rd grade high school students(39) through open-ended questionnaires and describe the pedagogical utilizations for this. Students' understanding types about the concept of a 'Region' are compared and then determined through two meaning agreement and association between meaning of students' understanding which is collected through open-ended questionnaires and meaning of a 'Region' which is described in high school curriculum. The results are as in the following. First, Students' understanding types about the concept of a 'Region' were divided into four categories: full, partial, ambiguous, and converted understanding. Second, The degree of right meaning agreement and association existing between two meanings is rising steadily by converted, ambiguous, partial, and full understanding. For this reason, This result can make sure the understanding degree about the concept of a 'Region' is different depending on the students. Third, Students' partial understanding, ambiguous understanding and converted understanding on region concept could be judged as misconception not fully corresponded to region concept in the curriculum explanation. Fourth, Teachers can achieve conceptual change through this misconception as a subject matter of educational dialogue for meaning change.

This paper analyzed the relationship between middle school students' belief about understanding with regard to mathematical concepts, procedures, and applications of the procedures. In order to gain our purpose, the academic achievement results of midterm examination of 139 middle school students and the surveys about their beliefs about understanding, mathematical concepts, and mathematical procedures were collected. And the cross analysis and the frequency analysis of SPSS were conducted. The research results showed that students' belief about understanding are irrelevant to their academic achievements. And the percentage of the students who believe that they understand was almost the same with the percentage of the students who understand the procedures. But there were differences between the percentage of the students who believe that they understand and the percentage of the students who understand the concepts. Through these, it is conformed. Students' belief about understanding does not mean they understand mathematical concepts. They just can solve mathematical problems through mechanical procedures.

Existing works to measure readers' understanding of interactive e-books have mainly employed quantitative approach which are difficult to get direct interpretation of the evaluation results. Attentive to interactive, visual and narrative features, this paper proposes a new method for measuring readers' engagement by making them to reconstitute a storyboard. Experimenting with real readers, we validated that this method could give a qualitative assessment that allows finding out problematic narrative phases and the adequacy of interaction formation.

study investigated the relationship between conceptual understanding and mapping errors induced in learning chemistry concept with two analogies presented in current science textbooks. Each of the two groups from 7th graders (N=260) in three middle schools studied with one of the analogies, and then a conception test and a mapping test were administered. Analyses of the results indicated that students conceptual understanding has a significant relationship with their understanding about the mapping. The scores of the conception test and the mapping test for the unshared attributes were lower than those for the shared attributes. Five types of mapping errors were also identified: overmapping, mismapping, failure to map, rash mapping, and artificial mapping. Many representative misconceptions were found to be associated with their mapping errors. Educational implications are discussed.

무한, 극한, 연속, 미분가능과 같은 중요한 수학적 개념을 이해하는 것은 대학수학 교양과정의 미분적분학 수강생들에게 필수적이다. 이들 개념의 이해 수준을 부록1, 2, 3을 통해 알아보고 평가를 분석한다. 평가결과는 이해도가 낮은 학생들을 위한 새로운 교수법이 필요성을 알게 하고 수학적 기본개념의 이해를 증진시키는데 정의의 정확한 이해를 돕고 구체적인 예제를 제시하는 교수법 개발에 수학교수의 노력을 필요로 한다.

Traffic pavement markings are one of primary transportation facilities that provide drivers with various road information directly. Thus, a clear understanding of traffic pavement markings is utmost important to improve traffic safety as well as to establish a proper traffic culture. However, no past studies examined drivers' understanding of traffic pavement markings in Korea. Hence, this study investigated drivers' understanding of traffic pavement markings through an elaborated administrated survey, and analyzed the relationship between various drivers' characteristics and understanding regarding pavement marking via cross-classification table and logistic model. The analysis results show that drivers have limited understanding regarding the purpose of the markings. Specifically, the average understanding of pavement markings is 57.41%: the lowest understanding is 25.88% for yield pavement marking, and the highest understanding is 91.18% for advanced pedestrian crosswalk pavement marking. This study also revealed that the understanding of some pavement markings are somewhat influenced by user group such as drivers with suspended or revoked driver licenses, but the overall understanding of pavement markings are not significantly affected by drivers' characteristics such as gender and driving experiences at ${\alpha}$=0.05. Thus, it might be desirable for policy makers to establish pavement marking-related policies for overall drivers rather than specific drivers.

It Is the purpose of this research to analyse users' understanding how keyword and boolean search work in SELIS(SEoul Women's University Library and Information System) OPAC. Results of analyses of the subject, SELIS OPAC system processing, are: comprehension percentage of keyword extraction is $67(22.48\%)$ out of total 298 persons, no comprehension is $231(77.52\%)$ understanding of boolean OR In keyword search appears $115(22.48\%)$ out of 297, no understanding does $182(77.52\%)$ : comprehension of boolean AND is $98(33.11\%)$ out of 296, no understanding appears $198(66.89\%)$ understanding of using boolean and symbols is $109(36.49\%)$ out of 285, no understanding is $181(63.51\%)$ which Is lower percentage generally. And in SELIS OPAC system, in Intentional analyses to see any difference in understanding of keyword search between experience of keyword search or no, It shows no difference in interrelation $5\%$ level of significance, but In boolean search it does in interrelation $5\%$ level of significance.

기계이해 시스템은 주어진 문서를 이해하고 질의에 해당하는 정답을 출력하는 방법으로 심층 신경망을 활용한 주의집중 방법이 발달하면서 활발히 연구되기 시작했다. 본 논문에서는 어휘 정보를 통해 문서와 질의를 이해하는 어휘 이해 모델과 품사 등장 정보, 의존 구문 정보를 통해 문법적 이해를 하는 구문 이해 모델을 함께 사용하여 기계이해 질의응답을 하는 Dual Bi-Directional Attention Flow모델을 제안한다. 한국어로 구성된 18,863개 데이터에서 제안 모델은 어휘 이해 모델만 사용하는 Bi-Directional Attention Flow모델보다 높은 성능(Exact Match: 0.3529, F1-score: 0.6718)을 보였다.
