The study investigated the linguistic characteristics of middle school students' writing on the themes of earth science through analysis of its genre and register. Data for analysis included $7^{th}$ grade and $9^{th}$ grade students' writings about 'global warming' and 'classification of rocks'. The results of this study include: First, many students were not accustomed to writing in genre, especially exposition genre. Second, in terms of ideational meaning, the material verbs representing action or doing were more dominant than relational verbs that are related to the attribute or definition of things, and additional logical relations were predominant. Third, regarding interpersonal meaning, agents, emotions, subjective opinions appeared in the writings and students did not express their ideas conclusively and revealed feelings of doubt and uncertainty about their knowledge. Fourth, as for textual meaning, most students listed fragments of information using additional conjunctions in simple structures and were not accustomed to writing texts with organizing structures, logical patterns, cohesion, and coherence. From these results, we argued that the scientific writings should be emphasized in science learning that aims to foster scientific literacy. In addition, we discussed the necessity of improving science teachers' perceptions on scientific writing as well as setting up a specific plan in the national curriculum.

이 연구의 목적은 귀추적 탐구 방법과 관련된 전략들을 적용하여 지구온난화에 관련되어 측정된 다양한 유형의 데이터를 관련된 사실, 원리, 법칙, 선행 연구 결과 등을 토대로 지구통합적인 관점과 지구계를 구성하는 요소들 간의 상호작용과 영향을 중심으로 재해석하고 이해하는 것이다. 지구과학(지구시스템과학)의 학문 성격, 최근 동향, 본성 및 탐구 대상의 특성에 대한 내용과 지구과학의 본질적 속성에 잘 부합하는 귀추적 탐구 방법에 대해 학습한 후, 학생들은 인천 및 다양한 지역의 기상과 해양 자료 분석을 통하여 관찰되는 현상(결과)의 원인과 영향을 파악하는 연구 활동을 하였다. 이 과정에서 귀추적 탐구를 충분히 이해할 수 있도록, 과학 탐구에서 귀추적 탐구 방법을 사용하는 과학자들의 예시와 모의 활동을 통하여, 귀추적 탐구 방법에 사용되는 다양한 사고 전략(예, 데이터의 재구성 전략, 유추 전략, 개념적 결합 전략 등)에 대한 예시를 경험하였다. 학생들은 지구온난화에 관련되어 나타나는 현상(조사된 사항 포함)과 영향에 대해 지구시스템적으로 이해하고 재해석하기 위해 지구시스템을 구성하는 요소(예, 수권, 대기권)와 관련된 데이터 정보를 검색하고 수집하였다. 1) 지구시스템과 지구온난화에 대한 조사하고, 2) 지구온난화 및 기후변화의 변동성 확인한 후, 3) 지구온난화와 관련된 선행 연구 결과 분석하였다. 또한, 지구과학의 본질적 속성에 잘 부합하는 귀추적 탐구 방법의 이해와 적용하는 과정에서 1) 지구 온난화 및 기후 변화의 실태 파악하고, 2) 인천 지역의 월별, 계절별 기온 변화 분석 및 경향 조사(탐색: 연구문제 규명)한 후, 3) 인천과 속초 지역의 기온, 수온의 변화 추이 및 분석 (조사: 원인 조사 과정)하였다. 4) 속초 지역의 평균해면기압변화 추이 및 분석한 후, 그 결과를 토대로 5) 문헌조사 및 선행연구 결과 분석을 통한 지구 온난화의 영향을 미치는 요인 재검토 및 확인(선택 및 설명)하여, 6) 인천지역과 속초지역의 지구온난화 원인 분석 및 문제점 보완(설명)하기 위해 7) 겨울철 지구온난화가 더 심각한지 부산지역과 포항지역의 자료 분석을 통하여 연구 결과 내용의 보완 (추가 조사 및 설명)한 후, 8) 분석 결과 및 해석 내용을 전문가와 상담 실시하였다. 이 연구는 연구를 진행하면서 얻은 결과를 교육적 측면에서 다시 정리해 보면 다음과 같다. 우선, 학생들의 지구환경적 문제 해결 과정에서 귀추적 탐구 방법을 활용한 문제 해결 능력을 향상시켰다. 아울러, 지구과학의 탐구 본성, 최근 동향, 탐구대상의 특성 등의 학습을 통해 지구과학도로서의 기본적인 소양과 자질 향상에 기여하였으며, 사회과학의 연구방법을 순수과학연구에 접목하여 과학자로서의 문제해결 능력과 시스템 사고력을 향상시켰다.

The research objective of this study is to analyze the aspects of small group decision-making process based on reading news reports in the context of the socio-scientific issues (SSI) activity related to climate change. Twenty-two high school students from Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, were asked to read two news reports on the UN climate change conferences and take a stance on joining the Paris Agreement both as an individual and as a small group. The news reports were analyzed in terms of genre, discourse, and style adapting the critical discourse analysis (CDA) and the decision-making processes of the small groups were examined on recognizing a problem and evaluating alternatives and decisions. The results from analyzing the news reports denoted that the Paris agreement is not only related to finding ideal solutions to climate change, but rather, connected to political or economic interests and power relationship. In the stage of recognizing a problem, meanwhile, different frames which students recognize the Paris agreement and discourses in the foreground of the news reports were the critical causes in terms of identifying the problem. In the stage of evaluating alternatives and decisions, the equity and fairness were the criteria for the small group discussions. This study implies the necessity of the scientific literacy instruction to develop the ability to critical reading in the context of the SSI.

This study has an objective not only to be helpful to the understanding about students' career and employment preparation by investigating the present conditions which are related with vocational consciousness and job values of dental hygiene department graduating students. Study subjects were 350 female graduating students in 3-year-course College, dental hygiene department at five areas of Seoul, Gyeonggi, Gangwon and Gyeongnam. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 19.0. Regarding job values, job prospect of dental hygienist is a little developmental (55.2%) and institution hoping to work is dental clinic (43.2%), reasons for employment in major area are good wage and working environment (24.0%). And regarding opinion about job, dental hygienist job is a measure for living income (69.7%). Regarding job selection conditions, 35.0% subjects replied good human relationship. In the questionnaires regarding professional job in vocational consciousness category, results showed high percentages in that 'the occupation is a job in charge of oral health improvement'; regarding academic area, 'scaling should be done better than dentist'; regarding human relationship, 'harmony between colleagues is closely related with job efficiency'; regarding work ethics, 'development of dental hospital (clinic) and dental hygienist is correlated.' In vocational consciousness of study subjects, higher major satisfaction showed significant differences in professional job consciousness and work ethics consciousness (p<0.05) and the correlation results in vocational consciousness areas showed all statistically significant correlations (p<0.01). In case that the characteristic in one type is higher among 4 types, all other types showed high characteristics and also showed high general vocational consciousness.

This study was conducted to investigate the intake of a kind of Gom-Tang (Beef soup made with internal organs and bone), which is the Korean traditional food, and factors affecting the eating behavior of customers. Two hundred male customers of a H Korean Restaurant specialized in Gom-Tang, which is a well-known restaurant in Seoul, were surveyed from June 26 to 29, 1990. The results were shown as follows. (1) ${\ulcorner}$Frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$ were very high. Those who took a kind of Gom-Tang ${\ulcorner}$more than once a week${\lrcorner}$ were 66.5% of the subjects. Those who evaluated ${\ulcorner}$good${\lrcorner}$ for the taste and flavor were 86.5% and 59.0% of the subjects, respectively. (2) The reasons why they chose a kind of Gom-Tang from among many Korean traditional foods were ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$phygiological condition${\lrcorner}$ in ${\ulcorner}$high frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group. ${\ulcorner}$Phygiological condition${\lrcorner}$ was more critical factor than ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$ in ${\ulcorner}$low frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group. (3) The effect of the intake of a kind of Gom-Tang on health was evaluated as ${\ulcorner}$healthy${\lrcorner}$ (80.5%). ${\ulcorner}$No effect${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$harmful${\lrcorner}$ were 30.5% and 6.5%, respectively. (4) ${\ulcorner}$High frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group, mainly more than 50 years of age, had a high ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$food knowledge${\lrcorner}$ as well as positive ${\ulcorner}$eating behavior${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$healthy state${\lrcorner}$, ${\ulcorner}$Middle frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group, mainly the forties, had a high ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$, but had less positive ${\ulcorner}$eating behavior${\lrcorner}$ than ${\ulcorner}$high frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group. ${\ulcorner}$Low frequency of intake${\lrcorner}$ group, mainly the twenties and thirties, had a medial ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$. They took a kind of Gom-Tang for reasons of ${\ulcorner}$on the recommendation of friends${\lrcorner}$ better than ${\ulcorner}$preference${\lrcorner}$. Foregoing results showed that ${\ulcorner}$a kind of Gom-Tang${\lrcorner}$ was a typical food recognized as ${\ulcorner}$healthy${\lrcorner}$ as well as ${\ulcorner}$delicious${\lrcorner}$. This may suggest that ${\ulcorner}$a kind of Gom-Tang${\lrcorner}$ is a candidate for the effective food on nutritional education.
