Cell division in biological education is an important and unintelligible unit. Most of students have no interest in learning the content, and don't concentrate on it because cell division unit contains relatively difficult content. In this vein, during considering the effective learning methods, the researcher found role-play as the method for student's positive access to important and unintelligent learning content. Effect of role-play on their learning achievement of science was analysed through the Chapter of cell division on 3rd grade of middle school students. For this study three levels of middle school students were selected from the school located in Seoul. And divided this students into experiment group and control group by 2 classes respectively. Before putting into practice this instruction, there took into account the before and after of students' learning achievement and their learning attitude by using same questionnaire.

To investigate the trends in science education research related to play and derive implications for elementary science education research, we analyzed 109 research articles on play in science education published both in Korea and abroad. First, the number of research studies conducted abroad has been steadily increasing since 2009, with the highest number targeting middle school students. Conversely, domestic research has the highest number of papers targeting elementary school students. Second, in terms of research methods, quantitative methods were the most commonly used. Third, the use of questionnaires was the most frequently published research method, while the use of observation and products was smaller in number in domestic studies compared to those conducted abroad. Fourth, In the aspects of the contents, more research was conducted in the field of physics than in other areas. In case of researches for elementary school students, domestic research was focused on four areas of science. Fifth, among the studies exploring effectiveness, the 'cognitive domain' was the most studied, followed by the 'science-related attitude domain' and the 'inquiry and practice domain'. Sixth, the use of play was high in the following order: online games, video games, virtual play, and games with rules. For domestic researches, studies on analog play were most frequently reported, and the ratio of digital games in abroad was higher than that of others. Seventh, the highest number of papers used teacher-directed play, and this tendency was more noticeable in domestic studies.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a community-based cognitive stimulation program on cognitive function and subjective memory in the elderly with mild cognitive impairment. This study was applied by selecting 15 users who understood the purpose of this study and agreed to participate in the shelter program for more than 3 months from April 2019 to August 2019 at the D Dementia Center in G located, Gyeonggi-do. The program consisted of a total of 36 cognitive stimulation programs 3 times a week a total of 3 months. Cognitive stimulation program stimulates cognitive function through various activities such as orientation reinforcement, cognitive training, recall, music, art, and physical play, and is used for the purpose of improving social function. It consists of folk songs, percussion instruments, national gymnastics, dance, games, and traditional games. As a result of the cognitive stimulation program, the average cognitive function increased by 2.13 points from 26.33 points before implementation to 28.46 points after implementation, and a statistically significant result was obtained (p=0.000). Subjective memory decreased by 3.53 points from the average of 7.13 points before the cognitive stimulation program was implemented to 3.60 points after the implementation, and a statistically significant result was obtained (p=0.000). It can be confirmed that this works. Dementia is leading to a cost burden, and congnitive function decreases the aqulity of life. It brings various burdens. It is necessary to study cognitive stimulation programs applied to various environments in the future.

This study intends to derive play attribute words to describe the nature of play by analyzing the correlation between play facilities and play attribute words. To investigate play attributes at playing facilities and supplement areas of weakness can provide a balanced play environment. Play attributes words were compiled via a literature review and the importance of each play attributes word was surveyed by experts. The keywords explaining play derived from news articles and references are defined as play attributes words. These words were classified into six broad categories and twenty-six sub-categories. The importance of major play attribute words show: Communication (0.268%) > Imagination (0.201%) > Amusement (0.190%) > Development (0.167%) > Learning (0.108%) > Intelligence (0.067%). Experts have recognized the most important elements are communication and imagination. Each play attribute associated with an amusement facility was separately identified in the amusement facilities installed in 114 children's parks in Seoul. Of the play attribute words, the amusement facilities at Seoul's Children's Park reflected a high frequency in 'development'. Furthermore, the importance of major playing attribute words such as 'Communication' and 'Imagination' were not fully reflected in cognitive play facilities. Therefore, it was judged that there is a need to actively introduce these attributes. This study proposed future improvements by determining weaknesses of amusement facilities in children's parks and analyzing the features and functions of play so as to suggest future improvements.
