As software transforms the structure of industry, it becomes a key measure in determining market competitiveness. Therefore, various educational efforts have been attempted in Korea to cultivate software professionals to secure software competitiveness. While previous studies had focused mainly on the cognitive effectiveness of software education, the authors tried to focus on affective perspectives. The authors, therefore, aimed to analyze the predictive power of the recognition of software importance and learning flow on affective outcomes, such as efficacy of computational thinking skills, and attitude toward, and satisfaction with, software education. The data were collected from 103 sixth grade students who participated in a software education. Results show that software importance and learning flow had significant predictive power on affective outcomes; Learning flow mediated the relationship between software importance and affective outcomes. This study provides practical implications for improving affective outcomes in the design and implementation of software education.

Ubiquitous Computing is required to define models for broad context information occurrence by surrounding environment and to study how to model a mechanism for selectively collecting useful pieces of context information and providing relevant intelligent services. Further, studies are also required as to process of context information, and its maintenance and reasoning. However, current context-aware research area still lacks modeling technique that reflects the characteristics of ontology effectively for providing relevant intelligent services. It has also limitation about context reasoning and interoperability among context information. Therefore, this paper proposes ontology-based context-aware modeling technique and framework enabling efficient specification of context information for providing intelligent context-aware services that support context management and reasoning.

The introduction of educational programming language has changed programming learning environment to learn programming through various learning activities. We need to analyze how effective these learning activities could be in programming learning. We performed a meta analysis of the programming learning effects according to 8 types of learning activities. The 44 studies were collected from 1993 to 2015 for the meta analysis. The study data of 77 were extracted among 44 studies through several steps. The major results were as follows. The effect size of cognitive domain was shown to be mid-level with .595 and the effect size of affective domain was shown to be mid-level with .594. We analysed according to learning activities. The effect size were no significant difference between learning activities in the cognitive domain. But simulation, animation and mathematical activities was shown to be more consistent results and mid-level effect size. Although the effect size were no significant difference, the homogeneity was shown to be high in the affective domain. The implications were suggested from research findings. First, it is desirable that learners learn programming according to various learning activity themes. Second, instructors should pay attention to simulation, animation and mathmatics activities. Third, researchers need research to find another factors for effective learning.

In recent years, space planning ability using 3D sketch software is required in the working field of interior design. However, vocational high school do not respond appropriately to changes in the industry, because the class of vocational high school consists of hands-on practical classes and 2D CAD based classes. There is a shortage of 3D sketch software-based instruction programs that can improve students' spatial planning skills. Therefore, this study is to develop instruction program using 3D sketch software for 'Planning for Residential Space' unit of NCS-based on interior design subject and to find out the effect on students' academic achievement by applying to vocational high school class. The 3d sketch software based instructional program developed in this study was developed through four stages of preparation, development, implementation and evaluation according to the PDIE model process. The experimental design model used nonequivalent group posttest-only design in this study. Experiments were conducted on vocational high school students in construction and 9 hours of interior design subjects were applied. After the experiments, students were tested for academic achievement in the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor areas. As a result, the instruction program using the 3d sketch program developed in this study was found to be more effective in improving students' academic achievement than existing manual instruction program in both cognitive, affective, and psychomotor areas.

Correcting an imbalance between cognitive and affective aspects of mathematics in schools is recognized as a crucial issue with regards to mathematics education in Korea. Therefore, research and studies about affective aspects have been increasing and themes relating to affective aspects were diverse. Their theme included the improvement of affective aspect, investigation of factors of affective aspect, and development of measurement tools for affective aspect. The purpose of this study is to analyze and organize the research that has been done with respect to affective aspect and drive trend, implication, and their instruction to mathematics education. This study has investigated 103 studies released from 2005 to 2015 on KCI, Korea Citation Index. The results of this study are as follow. First, since released research of affective aspects in mathematics has not increased in number in the last 11 years, academic interest in the affective aspects seems lower than recent interest arousing in Korea. Second, most studies utilized quantitative research as a tool to analyze phenomena and the cause and effect of affective aspects. Third, middle school students were the most common subjects of the studies, followed by elementary school students. Fourth, the studies had various themes such as analyzing the cause and effect of affective aspect, recognizing changes of affective aspects, and measuring affective aspects. The studies, especially, focused most on analyzing how to improve affective aspects by applying it to programs such as mathematic activities and solving mathematic problems. It is necessary for future research to have a long-term perspective and to provide a space for communication. Research should not only focus on how recognize affective aspects differently, which is based on its cultural background, but also to draw affective solutions from them.

This case study is performed to check the validity of cognitive behavioral therapy for high school students with mathematics anxiety. In order to find out whether it is effective or not, one female high school student who suffers physically and mentally from mathematics anxiety was selected and cognitive behavioral therapy was applied. The therapy is applied to her for 30 to 40 minutes, once a week, and for eight weeks. The main themes were: To understand my problem, To write down thinking log, To set up a plan for actions, To experiment actions, To change intermediate confidence, To change core belief. To check the validity, before and after the experiment, revised version of Heo(1996)'s assessment tools for mathematics anxiety was applied. The subject was interviewed and the results of the therapy were compared and analyzed. According to the research, the worst mathematics anxiety of the subject was test anxiety. After the procedure, the anxiety related to mathematics and teachers was lessened. Especially, the subject had changed her mind and become more positive and optimistic on solving difficult mathematics problems. Therefore, the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy on mathematics anxiety was confirmed. It is required to construct special program - about cognitive behavioral therapy, interactions of cognitive-affective causes, and group therapy - and check the validity of it.

아동의 언어습득 과정에서의 모방은 흔히 볼 수 있는 현상이지만 한편 인간의 독특하고 신기한 일면이기도 하다. 이 모방에 관하여 그동안 많은 연구들이 되어왔으나 그 중요성이나 역할에 대한 연구들의 결론이 모두 일치하는 것은 아니다. 본 논문에서는 이 모방현상에 대한 그 동안의 연구들을 이론별로 분류해 보고 각 이론들이 모방의 역할을 밝히기 위하여 사용해 온 연구방법, 절차들을 분석해 보았다. 행동주의와 사회학습이론에서는 언어습득에서의 모방의 역할을 특히 강조하고 있으며 이 모방의 효과를 입증하기 위하여 다른 어떤 이론보다도 훨씬 조직적인 실험연구를 해 왔다. 이와는 대조적으로, 언어 심리학적 접근에서는 언어습득에서의 생득성과 창의성을 강조하므로 모방의 역할은 중시하지 않으며, 모방의 정의를 엄격하게 규정하고 자연적인 관찰 중심의 연구를 주로 하여 언어습득에서의 모방의 역할이 미비하다는 결론을 내리고 있다. Piaget 중심의 인지발달적 접근에서는 모방을 인간의 전체 발달의 한 측면으로 보아 모방은 인지발달과 함께 점진적으로 발달되는 것으로 설명하고 있다. 특히 언어발달에서의 지연모방의 중요성을 강조하고 있으며, 대부분의 연구는 자연적인 관찰연구를 통하여 모방의 발달과정을 밝히고 있다. 언어발달에서의 모방의 역할에 대한 지금까지의 일치하지 않는 연구 결과들은 각각의 이론들이 나름대로 달리 모방을 정의하고, 언어의 다른 측면들을 다루어 왔기 때문으로 밝혀 졌다. 앞으로 언어발달이 아동의 발달 전체의 맥락 속에서 연구되어지고, 언어습득과정에서 보이는 아동들의 개인차까지도 고려되어지는 포괄적인 연구가 이루어지면 모방의 역할도 좀더 명백하고 일관성 있게 밝혀지리라 본다.

The Goal of SW education is to cultivate creative and convergent human resources with computational thinking ability. The content and methods of SW education are diverse, and it is difficult for the students to properly evaluate what they have learned. In order to appropriately evaluate the learning contents, SW education evaluations should be able to easily evaluate the core content of the SW education. The purpose of this study is to provide a systematic framework that can be used to develop evaluation factors to evaluate the effectiveness of SW education in elementary and secondary schools. We conducted a literature review, a field suitability review through FGI, an expert consultation, and a Delphi survey. As a result, the metrics of the cognitive domain were developed with 17 keywords in three categories: Computational Materials & Outputs (CMO), Computational Concepts (CC), and Computational Practices (CP). Also, metrics of the affective domain were developed with 13 sub-areas in four categories: value, attitude, computational thinking efficacy, and interest. The SW education evaluation factors developed in this study can be used as a framework to develop the evaluation contents in accordance with the contents of education.
