The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between lunar and earth rotation, by quantitatively describing the rotation of lunar configuration which is observed during the lunar diurnal motion. Our research suggests that observation of the lunar diurnal motion could be used as a study topic in the earth science courses. The rotation of the lunar configuration is an apparent phenomenon that can be seen when an observer. standing on the ground. looks at the moon as if the lunar dark configuration rotates on the basis of horizontal line. In spite its competence as a study topic because it is observable by naked eyes, there are only few major textbooks that introduce this phenomenon with regard to the earth rotation. Therefore, this study induced the mathematical principle of the lunar rotation in detail and proposed that this could be developed as a scientific inquiry through practical observation. In addition, an analytical proof and qualitative method of explanation of the lunar reverse rotation were also presented.

This study investigated that internalized images of earth scientist's work of 110 high school students who complete a course in Earth Science I through drawing. As a result that reflected the character of earth science as a school subject, it is shown that nearly half of the students believe that earth scientist's working place is outside. An object of study is limited to such areas as astronomy and geology, it says that students has little understanding of areas of atmospheric and oceanic sciences. There are lots of answers that tools for working are telescope or microscope, it reveals a huge difference between the results of advanced research that analyzed the typical experimental devices, and students realized that working is not invention but survey. We should try students to recognize earth scientist as a job with relation to their future.

지금 지구상에서 일어나고 있는 화산 활동이나 지진 발생은 단순한 천재지변이 아니라 살아있는 지구의 숨소리이며 기지개라고 할 수 있다. 만약 그러한 활동이 없다면 우리의 지구는 수성이나 화성처럼 생명이 살 수 없는 행성이 되었을 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the scientific activities of scientists justifying Wegener's continental drift in the 20th century, which is explained as a revolutionary process in earth science, and methodologically analyze the strategy of proposing new scientific theories and how the process of theory selection is carried out. Previously, the Earth was a static model and only the vertical movement of the crust was considered. However, the theory of continental drift proposed horizontal movement of the crust as a dynamic model of the Earth, eliminating numerous problems. Therefore, this study seeks to explore the rational activities of numerous scientists until the current plate tectonics theory was formed. Additionally, the theory of continental drift is in conflict with the theory of Earth shrinkage, which is an existing static model. In other words, it deviates from the existing mechanistic world view by presenting a dynamic model in which the Earth is created and changes, as opposed to a static model in which the Earth is already completed, fixed, and unchanged. As a result, old geology was weakened and new geophysics was born. The theory of continental drift and continued exploration by subsequent generations of scholars brought about a revolution in earth science. This can be said to be a good subject of investigation as educational material for various methodologies for students in earth science education, and as educational material for changing students' worldview.
