Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine if self-rated oral health differed according to self-reported oral health behaviors in Korean adolescents. Methods: The raw data of 'The 6th Youth Health Behavior Online Survey' carried out by the Korea Center for Disease Control and Prevention were analysed. Independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Logistic regression analysis were used to assess the relationships between oral health behaviors and self-rated oral health (n=73,238). Results:Oral health behaviors had stronger influence on daily toothbrushing habits. In particular, participants who brushed their teeth in the morning and participants who brushed their teeth more than 3 times a day were more likely to have good self-rated oral (P<0.001). Conclusions: Korean adolescents with high self-rated oral health reported practicing good oral health behaviors. These results highlight the need for the further practicable oral health education programs.

This study aims to examine how secondary mathematics teachers perceive and how they use constructed-response assessment in their mathematics classrooms. For this purpose, we conducted a survey in Seoul, Inchun, and Gyeonggi-do; 189 teachers participated in the survey. Results from the data analysis suggest as follows: a) the secondary mathematics teachers participated in the survey seem to consider the primary goals of assessment through constructed-response items as evaluating student achievement and the development of students' thinking and creativity; b) the teachers perceive that constructed-response assessment would promote students' mathematical thinking and problem solving skills; c) in general, constructed-response items were included in both performance assessment(less than 20 percent) and paper-and-pencil test(20 to 40 percent); and d) constructed-response items were primarily used as a part of regular examination, rather than as an independent assessment.

Since performance assessment was implemented for 10 years, a survey has been carried out from 212 elementary school teachers in Seoul area in terms of their perception and status about descriptive assessment. As results, most of teachers agreed strongly that using constructed-response items is necessary for assessment, and they showed that purpose of using constructed-response items in their mathematics classrooms was to evaluate accurately student achievement in accordance with learning objectives in mathematics and they referred mainly to items which they modified from problems or items in the textbook when they generate constructed-response items. In addition, they considered level of difficulty in creating constructed-response items mostly. Moreover, they indicated that the effects of assessment through constructed-response items would be improvement of students' problem solving and reasoning skills.

The purpose of this study is to find out how voice recognition technology can be utilized to solve the elderly problem rapidly aging in Korea. Public support services and civilian nursing services for the elderly are expected to expand in Korea. In this case, voice recognition technology can be used variously for the elderly who are not familiar with the media interface. To this end, our researchers visited Japan and examined the achievements obtained by voice recognition technology in the elderly care. Especially, when caregivers write reports, they have greatly reduced their working hours by replacing the handwritten reports with ones using voice recognition technology. This method can be easily implemented in Korea. In addition, the social cost of the elderly support can be gradually reduced through the development of a robot equipped with voice recognition technology. Consequently, we realize that when voice recognition technology is combined with artificial intelligence programs of various emotion recognition functions and various policy possibilities as well.

새로운 상호작용 장치와 응용 시스템에 대한 유비쿼터스 접근을 위한 요구사항이 창안되어, 사용자 상호작용은 데스크탑 너머로 이동하여 개발되는 경향이 있다. 사용되어지는 응용에서 상황은 시스템을 수행하는 활동의 총체적인 부분이 되었다. 상황 인지를 포함하는 것은 유비쿼터스 접근을 위해서 사용자에게 편리함과 효율성을 제공해 준다. 우리는 상황의 개념이 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅을 위한 컴퓨팅 상황, 사용자 상황과 물리적 상황의 서로 다른 카테고리로 확장되어져야 한다고 믿고 있기 때문에, 전통적인 HCI 이론은 상황 인지 응용을 개발하는데 부적절하다. 이것들은 확장된 상황 정보를 잘 사용하기 위해 시스템 요구사항 분석과 설계에 있어서 새로운 패러다임을 요구한다. 본 연구에서는 성능 매칭(capability matching)에 의해서 상황 인식 요구사항 분석을 위한 방법과 목표 상황에 대한 상황 인식 속성을 매치시키는 방법을 소개한다. 이런 모델을 근거로 본 연구에서는 몇몇 공통적인 유비쿼터스 접근 상황의 설계 문제를 분석하고 유비쿼터스 관광 응용 요구사항을 고려함에 의해 상황 인지 응용을 체계적으로 적용시키는 방법을 보여준다.

This study investigated the types of analogies generated by science-gifted students, mapping errors on the chromatography, and the perceptions on generating analogy. The subjects were science-gifted eighth-graders (N=68) enrolled at four gifted-education centers in Seoul. Analyses of the results revealed that most science-gifted students represented the analogies using verbal and pictorial forms based on concrete and everyday experiences, and they elaborately explained them including the functional attributes and the causal relationships of the target concept. Science-gifted students selected the analogies having rich similarities or similar structure and principle between the target concept and the analogy as the best of the self-generated analogies. And they used mainly their 'school life' as analogy materials. The results of the mapping test showed that many science-gifted students had mapping errors such as 'failure to map' and 'overmapping'. They were found to have the positive perceptions on generating analogy. The present study will provide the basic information to develop an instructional model in generating analogy in an education program for science-gifted students.

To date, cultural property education has seen rapid quantitative growth due to national and personal needs. However, qualitative growth is lacking. The objectives of cultural property education have not been established, and therefore, even its identity is not clear. The most pressing issue at present in cultural property education is to first set objectives. This study aimed to analyze the objectives of current cultural property education, identify the problems, and set new objectives to meet significant national and personal needs in terms of education. The problems with the objectives of current cultural property education are that the persons interested in the education do not understand the concept of the education objectives clearly and that the objectives do not contain much actual content of the education. Also, the objectives of the education do not take into account the dynamic competencies and interests of the learners and do not satisfy the changes of the times. To solve these problems, new cultural property education, called 'U.V.E.C.,' was offerred. U.V.E.C. education is aimed at understanding cultural properties, recognizing their value, and enjoying them, and at creating culture. The objectives of U.V.E.C. cultural property education were set such that they can be modified flexibly in a learner-centric way with clear and practical format and contents. Based on this direction, stepwise objectives were set including overall objectives, detailed objectives, and practice objectives, and objective cases of each step were proposed. Considering the generality of the education and the distinct characteristics of the cultural properties, the U.V.E.C. education objectives took into account the diversity of behavioral objectives, clearness in statements, the objectives of problem solving, the initiative of learners and openness for expression outcomes. The U.V.E.C. objectives are clear and specific so that teachers can enhance their pedagogical efficiency and learners are able to develop interesting and diversified competencies. In addition, it is expected that the U.V.E.C. objectives will significantly affect objective setting for education on cultural properties which have not been studied widely. Further systemic and specific studies on the contents and methods of the U.V.E.C. education would help to change the overall education on cultural properties and position the field as a new academic area.

The purpose of this study is to consider a line of context into the game-based learning. By reason of that, in this study this system of the roles into interaction game, both variable and flexible, will be considered in terms of what it means and what it takes however, beyond certain reasons, it does not change applicably with the place under the category of players. Therefore, it is obvious that more systems above-mentioned need to be developed on the knowledge-based environment by using educational games as well as assigning the roles of them.

This paper analyzes the recognition of driver's behavior in lane change using context-free grammar. In contrast to conventional pattern recognition techniques, context-free grammars are capable of describing features effectively that are not easily represented by finite symbols. Instead of coordinate data processing that should handle features in multiple concurrent events respectively, effective syntactic analysis was applied for patterning of symbolic sequence. The findings proposed the effective and intuitive method for drivers and researchers in driving safety field. Probabilistic parsing for the improving this research will be the future work to achieve a robust recognition.
