The purpose of this study is to identify elementary school teachers' perceptions, practices, and background factors related to introducing students' everyday experience in science teaching process. The participants of this study were four elementary school teachers who have different features such as major, teaching period, gender, growth area, and age. The data was collected through semi-constructed and in-depth interviews. The results of the research are as follows: Teachers mostly used students' everyday experience during the introduction phase of science lessons for the purpose of motivation. They hold a positive view of using students' everyday experience during science lessons and thought that science teaching needs to actively use more of students' everyday experience, while in actual practice they disregarded or only passively introduced students' everyday experience. The various background factors found to affect teachers' practice are as follows: positive memory on their science class; educational experience of their own children; their own childhood environment; their learning style; their insufficient knowledge or enthusiasm; perceived educational value of everyday life in science education; teacher's duties; importance of students' achievement; difficulty in guiding experiment; reaction of students on introducing everyday experience; characteristics of science textbook and teacher's guidebook; lack of lesson time; realization of national common basic education; characteristics of their students; demands from parents or students; effect of introducing everyday experience. In addition, we found that the teachers behave not in accordance with what they thought due to external factors related to their profession and that, for a more active use of students' everyday experience in their teaching, teachers need support from textbooks and teachers' guidebooks.

The purpose of this study is to examine everyday emotional experience of urban elderly in Korea. Specifically, this study explores gender differences in the effect of place/location of activity and companionship on the daily emotional experience. Data were collected from 148 urban elderly (men=76, women=72) in Seoul, using Experience Sampling Method(ESM). The unit of analysis was the self-report and in total 5,530 self-reports were provided. The statistical methods used for the data analyses were descriptive statistics, t-test, χ² verification, and ANOVA. The major findings are as follows. First, the elderly in Korea spend a quite substantial portion of their time at home, and they spend the largest share of their time in company with their spouse. Second, women report higher intensity of stress and irritation than men in terms of overall emotional experience. Third, the effect of activity location and companionship on emotional experience turned out to be different depending on gender. Emotional experience of daily lives and overall quality of life are shown to be inter-related. Based on these findings, this study provides a significant implication that situational contexts of experience should be considered in order to understand the daily emotional experience of the contemporary Korean elderly.

소프트웨어는 일상의 삶을 더 편리하게 해 주는 도구 이상으로 우리의 생활 깊숙이 침투하였으며, 소프트웨어로 인해 산업의 구조가 바뀌고 세상이 바뀌어 가고 있다. 이러한 소프트웨어의 중요성을 인식하고 2015 개정 교육과정에서는 초등학교에서부터 소프트웨어를 이해하고 제작하는 교육이 실행될 예정이다. 하지만, 소프트웨어라는 것은 추상적인 개념으로 아동의 경험과 연결시켜 소프트웨어 교육이 이루어지기는 어려웠던 것이 사실이다. 존 듀이는 일상적인 삶의 경험 영역 내에 들어 있던 것들로부터 교육을 도출해 낼 수 있다고 하였고, 이는 아동의 입장을 신중히 고려한 방식이다. 따라서, 소프트웨어 교육 또한 아동의 일상경험에서 출발한다면 보다 효과적인 교육이 이루어 질 수 있으리라고 본다. 이에 본 연구에서는 존 듀이의 철학적 관점에서 소프트웨어 교육에 시사하는 바를 대해 논의해 보고자 한다.

This study suggests that the contents and methods focusing on the leamer's geographical experience of everyday life and environments, are very effective for teaching and teaming in geography subject matter. The contents have to be selected and structurized from private geographies about their region of everyday life for teaming abstractive and scientific concepts of geography. Scientific concepts of geography, i.e. geographical concepts become 'scope'for selecting the contents and these systematic structure substitutes 'sequence'. The criteria by which selected contents of teaching and teaming based on everyday life may consist of three elements: region as leamer's place for everyday life; concrete experience of the place; and leamer's changing geographical experiences.

This research suggests scenarios of learning in real life contexts with smart devices and provides user interface prototypes to show their characteristics more effectively. For this, literature review was conducted to understand the strength and limitations of current learning in which real life contexts are used. Then, the characteristics of smart devices as a support tool of learning service was reviewed. With such understand, a user research was executed to establish 10 design guidelines for learning service in real life contexts. Finally, this paper suggested two scenarios that shows learning in real life contexts as case studies and their detailed user interface protypes.
