기존의 대부분 웹기반 문항평가시스템의 경우 CGI나 자바 스트립트를 이용한 너무나 순차적이며 제한된 평가문항들만 제시함으로써 학습에 흥미도가 떨어지고 학습자 주도의 창의적인 학습을 저해하는 요인이 되었다. 본 논문에서는 저작도구 PASS2000의 웹연동 방법을 통하여 학습자가 보다 흥미를 느끼고 학습자 수준에 적합한 동적인 다양한 형태의 평가문항 제시와 학습자가 제시된 문항에 대한 학습후에는 자동채점이 가능하며 즉각적인 결과확인이 가능하도록 하였다. 아울러 학습한 평가문항들을 문항평가지 형태로 출력하여 지속적이고 반복적인 개별화 학습을 할 수 있도록 하였다. 이는 장차 보편화될 원격교육시스템에서 학생들의 학습이해능력을 평가할 수 있는 원격 웹기반 문항평가시스템을 구현하여, 언제 어디서나 시간과 공간의 제한을 받지 않고 학습할 수 있는 체제가 되도록 하는데 있다.

This study aimed to examine research trends related to Natural Language Processing (NLP) in science education by analyzing 37 domestic and international documents that utilized NLP techniques in the field of science education from 2011 to September 2023. In particular, the study systematically analyzed the content, focusing on the main application areas of NLP techniques in science education, the role of teachers when utilizing NLP techniques, and a comparison of domestic and international perspectives. The analysis results are as follows: Firstly, it was confirmed that NLP techniques are significantly utilized in formative assessment, automatic scoring, literature review and classification, and pattern extraction in science education. Utilizing NLP in formative assessment allows for real-time analysis of students' learning processes and comprehension, reducing the burden on teachers' lessons and providing accurate, effective feedback to students. In automatic scoring, it contributes to the rapid and precise evaluation of students' responses. In literature review and classification using NLP, it helps to effectively analyze the topics and trends of research related to science education and student reports. It also helps to set future research directions. Utilizing NLP techniques in pattern extraction allows for effective analysis of commonalities or patterns in students' thoughts and responses. Secondly, the introduction of NLP techniques in science education has expanded the role of teachers from mere transmitters of knowledge to leaders who support and facilitate students' learning, requiring teachers to continuously develop their expertise. Thirdly, as domestic research on NLP is focused on literature review and classification, it is necessary to create an environment conducive to the easy collection of text data to diversify NLP research in Korea. Based on these analysis results, the study discussed ways to utilize NLP techniques in science education.

The present study suggests ways to improve the Korean proficiency screening test through an analysis of WIDA tests. A review of WIDA Screener, WIDA MODEL, and W-APT reveals that each of these three tests consists of four or five tests, corresponding to grade-level clusters. In addition, the WIDA screening tests assess both English for social communication and academic English, according to WIDA's five English Language Development (ELD) standards. Thematic folders of the ELD standards have different ranges of item difficulty, and the WIDA screening tests are adaptive tests. Lastly, the writing tests consist of performance-based tasks, and the rubric is holistic. As suggestions for improvement for Korean screening tests of the KSL curriculum, this study proposes (a) to devise items to assess academic Korean, so as to evaluate students' overall proficiency more accurately, (b) to utilize an adaptive method to screen students' proficiency more efficiently, and (c) to revise the writing tasks and rubric of the current KSL screening tests.

The purpose of this paper is to find a method of measuring mathematical creativity reasonably. In the pursuit of this purpose, we designed four multiple solution tasks that consist of two kinds of open tasks; 'tasks with open solutions' and 'tasks with open answers'. We collected data by conducting an interview with a gifted fifth grade student using the four multiple solution tasks we designed and analyzed mathematical creativity of the student using Leikin's model(2009). Research results show that the mathematical creativity scores of two students who suggest the same solutions in a different order may vary. The more solutions a student suggests, the better score he/she gets. And fluency has a stronger influence on mathematical creativity than flexibility or originality of an idea. Leikin's model does not consider the usefulness nor the elaboration of an idea. Leikin's model is very dependent on the tasks and the mathematical creativity score also varies with each marker.

Peer assessment refers to having students, rather than the instructor, make assessments of one another's work. Peer assessment is often used as a tool to train writing skills or a tool to apply or extend learning in higher education. Park(2016) recently proposed a system which utilizes peer assessment as a part of preparatory activity for college courses. Before weekly class, students studied given material on their own, wrote a one page essay on a given question based on their reading, and assessed the essays of other students. In this study, the system was implemented in undergraduate courses at S University over 2 semesters and the results were analyzed. The reliability of weekly scores given by students was not very high, but the correlation was high between the cumulative scores given by students across weeks and the scores of the end of the term paper assessed by the instructor. Based on these findings, the possibility of utilizing the results of the peer assessments as part of the final grades was discussed.

Even though software (SW) education has not been considered part of the current national kindergarten curriculum, in practice there is growing interest in adopting it. Teachers would be expected to play a key role in the successful introduction and implementation of new educational changes, such as SW education. In preparation for its adoption in ECE, it would be useful to determine ECE teachers' perception and attitudes toward early childhood software education. For this study, 219 ECE teachers' level of concern toward SW education was surveyed using the Stages of Concern Questionnaire. It was found that the teachers' level of concern was the highest at stage 0-Unconcerned and that they had high levels of stage management, personal and informational concern. Thus, a non-user pattern was mostly indicated. However, compared to the typical non-user pattern, the pattern aspect close to critical non-user ever appeared to some extent. In addition, a significant difference in the level of concern was shown at all stages depending on the awareness of the necessity for SW education. The teachers with SW training experience showed a higher intensity only at stage 0. There was a statistically significant difference in stages 0 and 6 depending on the future implementation decision. These results will be utilized as a resource in building an ECE teachers' support system according to their level of concern about SW education.

This study surveyed pre-service early childhood teachers' level of concern about software education on the assumption that software education will be introduced into early childhood education in the future. It was shown that the pre-service early childhood teachers' level of concern about software education is the highest at stage 0(95%) and that they have a high level of informative, personal and managerial concern. Thus, a non-user pattern was mostly indicated. However, compared to the typical non-user pattern, their personal and informative level of concern is slightly higher. A 'tailing up' phenomenon to stage 6(refocusing) was shown. Hence, a pattern aspect close to critical non-user appeared to some extent. A difference in the significant level of concern was shown at all stages, except for managerial concern, according to the need for awareness, the appearance of a future implementation plan, and technology efficacy level. Based on this outcome, it was proposed that teacher training in early childhood software education should be made available as part of the educational activity connected with the Nuri Curriculum, since this would be more suitable for young children's developmental level than the early childhood software education, including coding education, etc., currently found in private institutions.
