The purpose of the study is to analyze the characteristics of open-ended tasks in terms of cognitive demands. For this purpose, we analyzed characteristics of open-ended tasks presented in the sequence units of three high school mathematics textbooks. The results of the study have revealed that low cognitive demand levels of open-ended tasks had characteristics including procedures within previous tasks or within those tasks. On the other hand, high cognitive demand levels of open-ended tasks had characteristics of actively exploring new conditions to gain access to what is being sought, requesting a basis for judgement, linking various representations to the concepts of sequences, or requiring a variety of answers. These results are significant in that they not only specified the characteristics of open-ended tasks with high cognitive demands in terms of the intended curriculum, but also provided a direction for the development of open-ended taks with high congitive demands.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the levels of cognitive demands and components of the reasoning process presented in the mathematical sequence section of three high school mathematics textbooks in order to provide implications for the development of reasoning tasks in the future mathematics textbooks. The results of the study have revealed that most of the reasoning tasks presented in the mathematical sequence section of the three high school mathematics textbooks seemed to require low-level cognitive demands and that low-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks required only a component of one reasoning process. On the other hand, only a portion of the reasoning tasks appeared to require high-level of cognitive demands, and high-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks required various components of reasoning process. Considering the results of the study, it seems to suggest that we need more high-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks to develop high-level cognitive reasoning that would provide students with learning opportunities for various processes of reasoning, and that would provide a deeper understanding of the nature of reasoning.

The purpose of this study is to investigate a cognitive model of task commitment on biology classification inquiry. To achieve this goal, first, this study analyzed several literatures on task commitment in biology inquiry, and invented the tentative model of the task commitment. To investigate a tentative model invented, 2 main tasks were developed. These tasks were administered to 8 high-school students, first grade. Raw protocols were collected by thinking aloud method and a retrospective interview method. Collected protocols were converted to segmented protocols and coded by analyzing frame based invented model. The codes were analyzed. As a result, some problems were discovered, tentative model were revised. New analyzing frame based on Improved model were composed, and raw protocols were re-analyzed. Finally, a cognitive model of task commitment on biology classification inquiry was investigated. The investigated cognitive model of task commitment on biology classification inquiry was constructed 3 steps, 'Task commitment Induction', 'Task commitment Reinforcement', 'Task commitment Maintenance'. And each steps were consisted of several sub-factor. And commitment component were changed in each steps. Through this results, base information for strategy that improvement task commitment on biology classification inquiry is provided. Furthermore, the cognitive model of task commitment on biology classification inquiry will assist on evaluation and feedback by stage on task commitment.

The purpose of this study is to offer the implication for elementary school mathematics teaching by analyzing teachers' reflection on the cognitive demands of mathematical tasks they give in class. During the setup phase and the implementation phase in math class, the researchers analyzed the change of cognitive demands on mathematical tasks and the factors which had influence on such changes. After teachers' reflection on teaching, the researchers analyzed the change of cognitive demands on mathematical tasks and the factors which had influence on such changes in math classes. As a result, before teachers' reflection on the cognitive demands of mathematical tasks, the higher-level demands of mathematical tasks had a tendency to decline. However, after teachers' reflection on the cognitive demands of mathematical tasks, higher-level demands of mathematical tasks were maintained.

The present study identified dimensions of cognitive styles that were concerned with individual differences in cognitive processes. The results provided support for Robertson's [36] theory of cognitive processes that are independent of task. An individual's first or initial cognitive strategy may be consistent across different tasks and therefore considered their style. However, an individual's cognitive style may change after interacting with the task during a number of trials, and lead to a strategy that is particular to the task.

This study conducted systematic review and meta-analysis to analyze the effectiveness of a dual-task for cognitive function in patients with MCI in Korea. A search was conducted using eight databases, and the search terms were MCI, cognition, and dual task. This study includes RCT and nonRCT published from January 2013 to July 2023. A total of 682 studies were searched, and 8 studies that fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were finally analyzed. Methodological quality was assessed with the RoB, RoBANS. The meta-analysis used CMA 4.0 ver. As a result of the analysis, the overall effect size of the dual task was medium effect size. The effect size according to the outcome variables was large for orientation and executive function, and medium effect size for global cognitive function, visuospatial function, memory, and attention. As a result of analysis according to the intervention period, the effect was greater when applied for 4 to 8 weeks, and the effect size was larger when applied for 24 to 30 sessions. This study presented clinical evidence on the effectiveness and application method of a dual-task applied to improve cognitive function in patients with MCI.

본 연구는 교사가 교육용 웹사이트에서 교육 자료를 검색할 때의 인지과정을 탐색해 보고 교사가 어떠한 부분에서 인지적 어려움을 겪는지 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 세 명의 교사에게 교육 자료를 검색하는 세 가지 과제를 준 후, 과제 수행 시의 인지과정을 PBG 그래프(Problem Behavior Graph)를 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과를 바탕으로 교육용 웹사이트의 사용성 향상을 위한 개선 방안을 제안하였다.

이 연구의 목적은 과학적 예상 과정에서 초등학생의 안구운동을 분석하여 과학적 예상의 인지전략을 발견하는 것이다. 예상은 관찰, 측정, 추론과 같은 기초 탐구 과정들을 통해 문제를 해결하는 중요한 탐구 능력이다. 6학년 초등학생 40명이 자발적으로 이 연구에 참여했으며, 과학적 예상 두 과제를 해결하였다. 예상 과제는 점진적으로 변화하는 모형의 다음 모양을 예상하는 것과 14일 간의 기온 그래프를 보고 다음 5일간의 기온을 예상하는 과제였다. 과학적 예상 과정에서 참가자들의 안구 운동을 기록하기 위해 SMI사의 안구운동 추적기를 사용하였다. 40명의 참가자들 중 15명(그룹 A)은 두 과제를 모두 해결하였으며, 17명(그룹 B)은 하나의 과제만 해결하였고, 8명(그룹 C)은 두 과제 모두 해결하지 못했다. 예상 능력이 높은 학생과 낮은 학생의 인지 전략의 차이를 규명하기 위해 그룹 A와 그룹 C의 안구운동을 비교 분석하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 그룹 A는 짧은 시간 동안 문제를 읽고 문제의 주요어에 집중했으며, 단서들을 비교하고 경향성을 찾고 답을 재확인하는 활발한 움직임을 보였다. 그룹 C는 문제 자체를 이해하는데 긴 시간이 걸렸으며, 주요어와 단서를 찾지 못하고, 무의미한 짧고 빠른 도약 안구 운동을 보였다. 둘째, 그룹 A와 C의 안구 운동의 고정, 도약, 시선 경로를 분석한 결과, 6가지의 안구 운동 패턴이 나타났다. 셋째, 안구운동 분석결과를 토대로 참가자들의 인지 전략을 유동전략과 고착전략의 두 가지로 구분하였다. 본 연구에서 규명한 과학적 예상의 인지전략은 교사들이 과학적 예상의 문제 해결 단계에서 학생들이 겪는 어려움을 이해하고, 예상 능력을 향상시키는 프로그램을 개발하는 것에 도움이 될 것이다.

In this paper, we analyzed the levels of cognitive demand of the tasks for developing t he mathematical core competencies presented in the "Mathematics" textbook of the first y ear of high school developed according to the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum. "Mathematics" textbook included 4999 mathematics tasks, of which 703 were tasks for developing the mathematical competency. Analysis of 703 mathematical tasks according to the analysis framework of Stein, Smith, Henningsen, and Silver (2000) showed that 61.5% of students required high cognitive levels, 38.5% required low cognitive levels, and the types of tasks were as follows: Low-M 1.0%, Low-P 37.5%, High-P 57.8%, High-D 3.7%. It w as found that most of the tasks for the purpose were tasks that led to understanding mathematical concepts, principles, and processes along procedural processes.
