The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of The Model of Phases of the Moon on conception changes for preservice teachers. The researcher interviewed two preservice teachers under the agreement with them on their participation in the research just before he performed a class using The New Model of Phases of the Moon. The post-interview with the same content as the pre-interview was preformed one month later. The main content of the interview is as follows; 'Explain the shape of the Moon by drawing it.', 'Explain the relative different position among the Sun, Earth, and Moon depending on phases of the Moon by drawing them.', 'What do you think of the cause of phases of the Moon?', 'Draw a picture to explain why we always see only one side of the moon.' The results of the research are as follows. First, the class with New Model of Phases of the Moon was able to perceive the relationship of Sun, Earth, and Moon in three-dimensions rather than in two-dimensions and it helped to change their misconception that the Moon's shadow causes the Moon's shape. Secondly, the class with New Model of Phases of the Moon helped preservice teachers understand better the different positional relationships among the Sun, Earth, and Moon depending on the Moon shapes. Third, the class adopting the New Model of Phases of the Moon help preservice teachers form scientific conceptions on the causes of phase change of the Moon. Fourth, the class with the New Model of Phases of the Moon is not appropriate for explaining the reason why only one face of the Moon is seen. Based upon the results above, the researcher realized the limitation of this model and suggested that this model would help learners understand phase change of the Moon and increase space perception ability.

In order to investigate the composition and characteristics of instructional objectives in a teaching-learning material for gifted elementary students in science, 217 instructional objectives across 13 themes in 4 areas of 'energy','materials', 'life' and 'earth' were analyzed by Bloom's revised taxonomy of educational objectives. Four types of factual, conceptual, procedural and meta-cognitive knowledge in knowledge dimension were all comprised in the objectives. Conceptual knowledge was primary constituent of the objectives and the proportion of factual knowledge was the least. On the other hand, all 6 categories of 'remember', 'understand', 'apply', 'analyze', 'evaluate' and 'create' in cognitive process dimension were also comprised in the objectives. The category of 'understand' was primary constituent and that of 'remember' was the least one. While conceptual knowledge in knowledge dimension was primary constituent of the objectives in 'energy', 'materials' and 'earth' areas, procedural knowledge was the most objectives in 'life' area. The least type of knowledge was factual knowledge in all 4 areas. In cognitive process dimension, the category of 'understand' was primary constituent and that of 'remember' was the least one in all 4 areas. In conclusion, it was showed that the instructional objectives in the teaching-learning material reflected the characteristics of educational objectives for gifted students in science.

이 연구는 고등학교 지구과학 탐구활동에서 소그룹활동을 학생들의 대화를 중심으로 분석하고, 반성적 탐구활동이 교육과정별로 어떤 차이를 보이고 소그룹내의 상호작용특성에 따라 반성적 탐구양식의 차이가 어떠한지 알아보는 것이다. 그럼으로써 학생들이 어떤 반성적 탐구양식을 보이며 어떻게 발달시키는지에 관한 이해를 제공하고, 수업속의 맥락은 이러한 반성적 탐구학습을 증진시키고 억압하기위해서 어떻게 상호작용 하는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이에 대한 연구문제로 소그룹을 이용한 탐구활동 수업과 반성적 탐구활동수업 중 반성적 에피소드의 차이가 있는가, 소그룹내의 그룹상호작용의 특징에 따른 반성적 탐구유형의 차이는 있는가를 설정하였다. 이를 위해 고등학교 1학년 2개 학급을 선정 기존의 우리나라 교육과정에 의거한 탐구활동수업 4차시, 반성적 탐구교육과정 수업 4차시를 각각 실시하고 수업을 녹화 전사해서 언어행동 분석틀과 반성적 탐구의 3가지 맥락을 통해 분석하였다. 연구 결과 두 교육과정 모두 도입에서 두 교육과정 모두 A-AD맥락의 반성적 탐구가 전형적으로 자주 나타나며, 반성적 탐구 교육과정수업에서는 AD-SR가 주로 나오는 것으로 보아 과제활동초기에 역할 분담과 과제 활동의 전략을 세우며, 전략을 세울 때 영역개념을 이용하는 것을 안수 있었다. 우리나라 교육과정 수업에서는 반성적 탐구진술이 간단하고 계획과정이 짧으며, 주로 과제 맥락 내에서 반성적 탐구를 하는 것으로 나타났다. 전개부분에서는 두 교육과정모두 DI-DP, DI-A맥락의 반성적 탐구가 나타나 자료 항목과 자료 패턴 그리고 인공물과 관련시키는 반성적 탐구가 공통적으로 나타나며 반성적 교육과정수업에서는 대체로 자료 맥락의 영역개념과 과제 맥락을 연결시키는 반성적 탐구가 잘 나타나고 있다. 반면 우리나라 교육과정에서 주로 과제 맥락 내에서 반성적 탐구가 나타났다. 정리단계에서는 반성적 교육과정 수업에서는 DC-DP가 주로 나타났으며 우리나라 교육과정수업에서는 DC-DP DP-AD맥락의 반성적 탐구가 나타났다. 정리활동에서 우리나라 교육과정은 반성적 교육과정보다 자료 맥락의 영역개념을 더 자주 이용하고 다양한 맥락의 반성적 탐구가 나오고 있으며, 이는 우리나라 교육과정의 학습지의 활동이나 문제는 학생들에게 익숙하고, 자료 패턴을 가지고 행동결정으로 연결짓는 활동이 명확히 제시되었기 때문이라고 판단된다. 두 그룹의 상호작용 특징에 따른 반성적 탐구의 성향의 차이는 도입단계에서 그룹의 특징과 상관없이 A-AD, AD-SR맥락의 반성적 탐구가 나왔으며 전개와 정리단계에서는 N그룹에서는 DP와 관련된 의미 있는 반성적 탐구가 나오는 반면 M그룹에서는 이러한 맥락의 반성적 탐구는 아주 드물게 나타나며, GN과 관련된 행동결정이 자주 보이고 있었다. 정리활동시 주로 하는 기록 활동에서 N그룹에서는 다양한 맥락에서 반성적 탐구를 하고 있는 것에 비해 비교 그룹에서는 서로 견제하고 확인하는 상호작용의 특징에서 나타나는 AD-SR맥락의 반성적 탐구가 자주 나타났다. 반성적 탐구 척도 두 그룹을 비교 했을 때 CON 상호작용의 특징이 낮게 나타나는 N그룹이 양적으로 그리고 내용적으로 더 의미 있는 반성적 탐구를 했다

The purpose of this study is to analyze the contents related to the strata in the elementary science textbooks and to investigate the strata concepts of preservice elementary teachers. As a result of the study, most of the strata knowledge in elementary textbook has an explicit sentence structure, such as A is B. it is limited to being used as a subject of discussion and debate among students in science classes. Formal knowledge, although its meaning is clear, is disadvantageous as a material for core competency education. Regarding strata concepts, 70% of preservice elementary teachers thoughts that heat and pressure were the only key factors in turning sediments into hard rocks. Regarding whether information about the natural information in the geological period can be obtained through the strata, 20% thought that information on the natural environment could be obtained only through fossils and not from the strata. Even 80% of preservice elementary school teachers who thought that informations on the past natural environment could be obtained from the stratum showed a lot of scientific misconceptions in the information contents. In conclusion, in order to increase the effect of core competency education through elementary science education, it is necessary to review the form and contents of strata knowledge presented in elementary science textbooks.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of utilizing a concept map as an instructional strategy to promote student achievement through semantical learning in elementary school on volcanoes. To analyze student achievement in understanding the concept of volcano, quantitative and qualitative analyses were performed through a written test for two different groups that were composed of 80 sixth-grade students: a control group that attended class using the conventional strategy and an experimental group that attended class using concept maps. The results of this study were as follows: First, the use of concept maps in class is effective in learning because of the higher understanding of the group that was using concept maps in the achievement assessment. Second, in their post-instructional understandings, no significant differences are shown between middle- and low-ranking students statistically, but a significant difference is shown between high- and low-ranking students or between high- and middle-ranking students. This indicates that the use of concepts maps in a class is more effective for the middle- and low-ranking students than for the high-ranking students. Third, in the repetitions of classes, the students learning with an aid of concept maps became accustomed to structuring the concepts of their learning subject in categories of relationships, hierarchies, cross-links, and examples easily.

기후변화가 가속화로 인해 수재해의 빈도와 강도 예측이 어려워짐에 따라 실시간 홍수 모니터링에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 합성개구레이다는 광원과 날씨에 무관하게 촬영이 가능하여 수재해 발생시에도 영상을 확보할 수 있다. 합성개구레이다를 활용한 수체 탐지 알고리즘 개발이 활발히 연구되어 왔고, 딥러닝의 발달로 CNN을 활용하여 높은 정확도로 수체 탐지가 기능해졌다. 하지만, CNN 기반 수체 탐지 모델은 훈련시 높은 정량적 정확성 지표를 달성하여도 추론 후 정성적 평가시 경계와 소하천에 대한 탐지 정확성이 떨어진다. 홍수 모니터링에서 특히 중요한 정보인 경계와 좁은 하천에 대해서 정확성이 떨어짐에 따라 실생활 적용이 어렵다. 이에 경계를 강화한 적대적 학습 기반의 수체 탐지 모델을 개발하여 더 세밀하고 정확하게 탐지하고자 한다. 적대적 학습은 생성적 적대 신경망(GAN)의 두 개의 모델인 생성자와 판별자가 서로 관여하며 더 높은 정확도를 달성할 수 있도록 학습이다. 이러한 적대적 학습 개념을 수체 탐지 모델에 처음으로 도입하여, 생성자는 실제 라벨 데이터와 유사하게 수체 경계와 소하천까지 탐지하고자 학습한다. 반면 판별자는 경계 거리 변환 맵과 합성개구레이다 영상을 기반으로 라벨데이터와 수체 탐지 결과를 구분한다. 경계가 강화될 수 있도록, 면적과 경계를 모두 고려할 수 있는 손실함수 조합을 구성하였다. 제안 모델이 경계와 소하천을 정확히 탐지하는지 판단하기 위해, 정량적 지표로 F1-score를 사용하였으며, 육안 판독을 통해 정성적 평가도 진행하였다. 기존 U-Net 모델이 탐지하지 못하던 영역에 대해 제안한 경계 강화 적대적 수체 탐지 모델이 수체의 세밀한 부분까지 탐지할 수 있음을 증명하였다.

This study investigated Korean fifteen-year-olds' (mis)conceptions on the greenhouse effect based on the PISA results. Based on previous studies on students' ideas about the greenhouse effect, Korean students'understanding of the natural factors and human-induced factors of the greenhouse effect were analyzed. Students' misconceptions about causes of the greenhouse effect were also examined. In addition to CO2, Students mentioned CFCs, atmospheric pollution, water vapor and methane as greenhouse gases. Many students indicated that the greenhouse effect and ozone depletion have a causal relationship. Teaching implications of the misconceptions were also discussed.

We study on the concept and reason of seasonal change that 164 university students have. Subsequently the concept types on the seasonal change are classified according to the characteristics and conceptual change after teaching on astronomy. All of the students were simply checked by the questionnaire of multiple choice and essay method before learning on the subjects. And then they answered to questionnaires of similar type after one semester. By the analyzed results, we classify it to three steps of hierarchical concept structure. The first step is the cosmic perspective that is related to the Earth's condition and motion. The second step is the influence of the Earth that is directly affected by the first step. The third step is observer's perspective on the Earth depending on the second step. Among the answers, the first step is prominent and second step is rare. The answers on the reason of seasonal change show some kinds of type which are 1st, 1-2nd, 1-3rd, and 1-2-3rd step. By the result, it is arranged in sequence like as 1-3rd>1st>1-2nd>1-2-3rd type. The lowest number of students was 2nd step of the Sun's altitude and duration of daytime in pre-test. However the students of 2nd step obtained more correct scientific concept on the seasonal change after learning on the subjects, and got the higher score in the post-test than in the pre-test. We found how much important the hierarchical structure on the reason of seasonal change is. As the results, second step on the learning of the Sun's altitude and duration of daytime essentially have to teach after first step. And then third step have to teach. At last, it is sure that the students can obtain the concept of seasonal change.

This study aimed to determine whether middle school students could understand global warming and the greenhouse effect, and explain them in terms of global radiative equilibrium. From July 13 to July 24 in 2021, 118 students in the third grade of middle school, who completed a class module on 'atmosphere and weather', participated in an online assessment consisting of multiple-choice and written answers on radiative equilibrium, the greenhouse effect, and global warming; 97 complete responses were obtained. After analysis, it was found that over half the students (61.9%) correctly described the meaning of radiative equilibrium; however, their explanations frequently contained prior knowledge or specific examples outside of the presented data. The majority of the students (92.8%) knew that the greenhouse effect occurs within Earth's atmosphere, but many (32.0%) thought of the greenhouse effect as a state in which the radiative equilibrium is broken. Less than half the students (47.4%) answered correctly that radiative equilibrium occurs on both Earth and the Moon. Most of the students (69.1%) understood that atmospheric re-radiation is the cause of the greenhouse effect, but few (39.2%) answered correctly that the amount of surface radiation emitted is greater than the amount of solar radiation absorbed by the Earth's surface. In addition, about half the students (49.5%) had a good understanding of the relationship between the increase in greenhouse gases and the absorption of atmospheric gases, and the resulting reradiation to the surface. However, when asked about greenhouse gases increases, their thoughts on surface emissions were very diverse; 14.4% said they increased, 9.3% said there was no change, 7.2% said they decreased, and 18.6% gave no response. Radiation equilibrium, the greenhouse effect, and global warming are a large semantic network connected by the balance and interaction of the Earth system. This can thus serve as a conceptual system for students to understand, apply, and interpret climate change caused by global warming. Therefore, with the current climate change crisis facing mankind, sophisticated program development and classroom experiences should be provided to encourage students to think scientifically and establish scientific concepts based on accurate understanding, with follow-up studies conducted to observe the effects.
