Due to the great impact of private education expenses on many areas including economics and politics, reducing private education expenses is one of the key issues in Korea. In this paper, we analyze the data from a survey on private education expenses, conducted by Statistics, Korea, in 2008. We study the effect of some demographic variables on two dependent variables, the expenses for out-of-school private education (Private) and the expenses for after-school programs (Afterschool), by using a multiple linear regression model. The analysis results show that 'residential area' and 'school level' variables have a significant effect on the two dependent variables. 'Private' increases in the order of small town, middle town, or metropolitan city, and Seoul, by about 7%. On the other hand, 'Afterschool' are about the same for all areas except for the small town. In terms of the effect of 'school level', 'Private' for high school students is about 17% larger than all other students including professional high school students. This shows a strong correlation between university admission and private education, in Korea. 'Afterschool' is larger for high school and elementary school students and decreases in the order of professional school students and middle school students. It seems that after-school programs are alternatives to expensive private education programs for elementary school students, and that high school students are attracted to after-school programs to get a good GPA, which is important for university admissions.

In this study, we will analyze the classroom space of elementary schools that have implemented the Seoul Metropolitan Government's 'Dream Classroom' project and identify satisfaction and needs in terms of users. Primary school was selected and the composition and color of space was investigated by the present ministerial inspection. The survey was conducted on homeroom teachers and analyzed as SPSS/WIN Statistical Programme 22.0. The satisfaction level of space elements was verified by the technical statistical analysis, the general classroom and the 'classroom with dreams' difference in response t-test, the need for planning elements (criticality), and the difference in satisfaction with one way ANOVA. The space had the most separate, primary-colored classrooms. They preferred emotional factors and bright and light atmosphere for the lower grades, and the soft and soft atmosphere for the middle and high school students. The school preferred communication space with the community, proper play and relaxation space for the complex type of classroom. This will help set the direction for elementary school classroom space planning during the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

This study is a descriptive research conducted to identify smartphone addiction and influencing factors of high grades of elementary school students. The subjects were 294 elementary school students in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades at 31 regional children's centers located in C city. Data were collected from May 13, 2019 to June 10, 2019. For data analysis, frequency analysis, 𝑥²-test, and logistic regression analysis were performed using SPSS Win 23.0 program. The result of the study were 16% in the addiction risk group and 84.0% in the general group. Factors influencing smartphone addiction were smartphone usage time on weekdays(95% CI: 1.263~827.849, p=.036), and main usage time of smartphone(95% CI: 1.028~29.574, p=.046). Therefore, in order to prevent smartphone addiction of high grade of elementary school, it is necessary to develop a smartphone addiction prevention education or nursing intervention program by identifying usage time and main usage time of smartphone.

The contents of chemical reaction in the science textbooks, used by starting from elementary school to college level, were investigated how much closely connected with them. For this purpose, nineteen subjects of chemistry contents were selected and the articulation analysis, classified into 5 criteria, was carried out. The results indicated that the articulation from elementary school to middle school looked quite acceptable, but there was a big gap from middle school to high school and the articulation from high school to college exhibited a big overlap and gap. Finally, the flow map of chemical reaction was suggested.

In this study, overlapping recommended books in different schools were positively analyzed and the extent to which the recommended books leading to actual loan was statistically analyzed. The purpose of the study is to confirm the effects of recommended books by analyzing the data and extracting the proofs. For the method of research, eighteen elementary schools' recommended book lists and thirteen elementary schools' loan data were collected and compared by schools, by grades in a basic statistical analysis method. The result shows that recommended books similarity was low and recommended books affected the total volume of lend books. Loan frequency by grades showed the difference and in every school, lower grades had high loan frequency. The result of this study will be applied as basic data for applying recommended books in school libraries.

Since 1992, the sixth national curriculum introduced the policy of school based curriculum development(SBCD) and required all the public elementary schools to develop their own curriculum for the gifted children in their schools. However, in spite of the fact that this curriculum policy for the gifted children has the history of 15 years until now, the current state of its implementation seems to be unsatisfactory. The major reason for that seems to be due to the reality that the schools have not had the theoretical basis for the curriculum development for the gifted children. In this vein, the researcher presented the theoretical SBCD model for the gifted children in elementary schools under the assumption that the model should suit the identity of elementary education, so that the gifted education in the elementary school can be implemented in its own form and adequacy. Based on the identity of elementary education, the model was developed by reformulating three component models of VanTassel-Baska's ICM: content model, process-product model, and epistemological model. The major feature of the researcher's model is to adapt and adjust the three component models differently according to the age level from the first to sixth graders in the elementary school. The model can be used not only as a general model for the talent pool of the school but also as an individual model for a specific gifted child by taking his special needs and characteristics into account. The model is a theoretical one based on the curriculum models for the gifted which were presented by several scholars in the area of G/T education, and it needs to be validated empirically in the future.

7차 교육과정에서는 초등학교 실과교과에 로봇에 대한 내용이 교과에 포함되어 있다. 또한 각 기관의 영재 교육 기관에서도 로봇이용교육이 이루어지고 있다. 이는 로봇 이용 프로그래밍 교육은 학생들의 흥미도 향상과 창의력 향상에 이점이 있기 때문이다. 그러나 일부 학교에서 방과 후 교육에서 로봇교육을 일부 많이 실시하고 있지만 일반학생을 대상으로 한 로봇이용 교육은 활성화되지 못하고 있다. 특히 여학생의 경우에는 컴퓨터에 대한 친숙도가 남학생에 비해 낮은 편이다. 본 연구에서는 일반학생을 대상으로 한 로봇 이용교육 활성화 방안을 제시하기위한 기초 연구로 중등학생의 로봇이용교육의 실태를 분석한다. 특히 여학생들의 로봇 이용 교육에 대한 실태를 분석함을 목적으로 한다.

This research analyzed reality of multicultural education of Korea and suggested policy implication through a questionnaire survey of teachers, students, and parents in elementary schools, Daegu City. Multicultural policies in Korea mainly helped a member of multicultural family who immigrated into Korea to learn Korean language and culture. Thus, the common people have a few chances to have multicultural education; however they mainly experienced multiculture indirectly through mass media. Therefore they had low level of understanding and satisfaction and their consciousness was narrow. Most of people completely come out in sympathy with that multicultural education should be taught at school. To overcome the current issues of multicultural education, its goals, contents and tasks should be clearly established. Multicultural education is taught from elementary school in holistic approach; however, methods of learning and teaching are different according to a curriculum.
