The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of bone age on physique and physical fitness in elementary school students. For this purpose, the structural equation model test was conducted based on the three-year longitudinal study. The results were as follows. First, bone age in boys and girls (1st~3rd grade) has a direct effect on the change of body size, but it does not affect the change of physical strength. Second, the bone age of the senior male students(4~6 grade) gave a direct effect on the change of physique, 50m running, and sit-up. On the other hand, it gave an indirect effect on push-ups, sitting basketball throws, and standing long jump. Third, the bone age of the female students(grades 4~6) affected directly on body size change, sit-up, side step and indirect effect on 50m running, half squat jump, and standing long jump. These results indicated that the evaluation of the bone age of the subjects should be included in the exercise ability evaluation items for the male and female students in elementary school over the fourth grade in relation to the myofunction.

This study examined the effects of an online-based learning STEAM program using Metaverse on elementary school students' attitudes toward and satisfaction with STEAM in 197 students in grades 2, 4, and 6 at a rural elementary school. To conduct this study, we developed and implemented a four- to five-lesson online-based STEAM program in each grade level. The conclusions of this study are as follows. The online learning STEAM program had a statistically significant effect on improving elementary school students' attitudes toward STEAM, and students' satisfaction with the program was high. In addition, the pilot teacher said in an interview that 'the students' attention to the program was very high, and it was very interesting to use the Metaverse space'. Based on the results of the pilot, one STEAM program for students and teachers was developed for the fourth and fifth periods of each grade level in elementary school. Online learning programs using Metaverse have the potential to transform education during the pandemic by addressing educational inequalities and providing a flexible learning environment. Therefore, we propose a study on the development of online STEAM programs for middle and high school students.

This study examined how the explicit and implicit race attitudes differ according to age and gender from the developmental perspective in Korean elementary students. The study also investigated the efficacy of a multi-cultural education program on explicit and implicit attitude change in elementary school students. This thesis consists of two parts. In Study 1, elementary school students(first grade:117, fourth grade:117) completed Explicit Attitudes Rating Scales, Explicit Preference Test, and Child Implicit Association Tests (Korean-White/Korean-Black/ Korean-Southeast Asian IATs). The effects of age and gender on explicit and implicit attitudes toward Korean/White/Black/Southeast Asian were examined with two-way MANOVA. The results demonstrated that as age increases, in-group preference/out-group bias decrease on the explicit level. In contrast, on the implicit level, as age increases, in-group preference/out-group bias do not decrease. Rather, prejudiced attitudes toward blacks increase. Study 2 was performed to investigate the effect of a multi-cultural education program on explicit and implicit attitude change toward races in elementary school students. The program conveying an anti-bias message consists of three sessions, and the procedures are as follows; watching video clips, confirming contents and short discussion. Two classes in the program and two classes in comparative groups on the first and fourth grade of elementary school were assessed. The results showed that black preference significantly increased both in the first and the fourth grade elementary students on the explicit attitude level, but not on the implicit level. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings were discussed.

학생들이 분수 개념을 이해하기 위하여 분수 개념에 대한 표상과 현행 교과서에 기술되고 있는 분수 개념에 대한 실제를 살펴보았다. 그리고 5학년 남학생 3명과 여학생 3명을 대상으로 동치분수의 개념과 모델링이 동치분수를 이해하는데 어떤 역할을 하는지를 살펴보고자 하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다.

지난해 개정된 학교보건법 및 교과부 보건교육과정 고시에 따라 오는 3월부터 전국 초등학교 $5{\sim}6$학년, 중고등학교에서 1개 학년씩 17시간 이상 보건교육이 실시된다. 개정된 법에 따라 2010년부터 중고등학교는 보건과목을 선택과목으로 도입해야 한다. 이는 50년 만에 보건교과가 부활됨을 의미한다. 이러한 변화의 배경과 전망에 대한 시평을 의뢰하였다.

'과학기술'은 말만 들어도 딱딱하고 골치아픈 분야이다. 과학 기자가 과학기사를 다룰 때는 더욱 어려워진다. 취재한 내용을 전달할 때 신문은 중학교 3학년생이 봐도 이해할 수 있도록 기사를 작성해야 하고 방송은 초등학교 3학년 수준의 리포트를 작성해야 하기 때문이다.

This study carried out to provide basic educational material of primary school children to improve the children's oral health by oral health checkup and survey over 215 students in the first grade and the fourth grade at the primary school in Hwaseong city. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS Win 12.0 program 1. The rate of students who have decayed permanent teeth was 57.2%, and there seemed to be a significant difference between the two genders showing 61.6% for male students and 53.3% for female students. Also 1st grade showed 56.0% and 4th grade 58.1% respectively. 2. The male students who claimed 'bleeding gum' against questions about oral illness experiences were 15.7% whereas female students were 28.0%. There was a significant difference(p<0.05) by the gender. 3. The 4th grade students who said 'Toothache while eating cold food' about questions of oral symptoms appeared as 19.4% and 1st grade students were 8.8%. Also there was a significant difference(p<0.05) by the grade. 4. Regarding oral health improvement behavior, there were significant differences in frequency of toothbrushing a day, the number(p<0.05) of eating snacks a day and the number(p<0.01) of experience of visiting dental clinic(p<0.01). 5. About oral health behavior frequency of daily toothbrushing was found as twice(50.2%), twice of eating snacks a day(70.2%), using fluoride toothpaste 60.9% and visiting a dental clinic(60.0%), were shown as the highest numbers.

The purpose of this study is, targeting 5th and 6th grades mathematically gifted elementary students, to analyze the effect of independent study project learning on self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy, and based on the results, examine the implications that independent study project learning has in special education for the gifted. In order to solve the study problems, 5th grade mathematically gifted elementary students(40) and 6th grade mathematically gifted elementary students(39) who had passed the selection criteria of D education institute for the gifted and had been receiving special education for the gifted were selected. The study results are as below. First, although self-directed learning ability had no significant difference at p<0.05, it statistically had some differences in averages between pre-test and post-test results. Second, although mathematical self-efficacy had no significant difference at p<0.05, it statistically had some differences in averages between pre-test and post-test results. Third, in the aspects of self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy, independent study project learning had a more positive effect on 5th grade mathematically gifted elementary students than 6th grade mathematically gifted elementary students. In addition, it had significant differences in 'the level of mathematical tasks', a sub-level of mathematical self-efficacy, and 'the openness of learning', 'the initiative of learning', and 'a sense of responsibility for learning', sub-levels of self-directed learning ability. These results imply that independent study project learning has a positive effect on self-directed learning ability and mathematical self-efficacy of mathematically gifted elementary students so that it could be meaningfully used as a teaching method for special education for the gifted at educational sites of independent study project learning.

초등학교에서 재량활동인 컴퓨터 교재의 내용은 ICT 소양교육을 중점으로 기능 교육(한글, 파워포인트, 윈도우, 통신 등)에 대한 내용이 대부분을 차지하고 있다. 특히 초등학생들은 이미 생활에서 쉽게 접하는 정보화 시스템에 익숙하여 컴퓨터를 다루는 기능은 교재의 수준을 상당히 갖추고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 현재 초등학교에서 사용하고 있는 초등컴퓨터 재량활동 교재의 내용에 변화가 필요함을 나타내기 위하여, 부산광역시교육청의 초등컴퓨터 재량활동 교재인 '즐거운 컴퓨터'의 내용과 부산광역시 4, 5, 6학년 초등학생들의 ICT 활용기능을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과를 통하여 초등학생의 ICT 기술능력이 컴퓨터 교재의 내용을 앞서고 있음을 보이고 향후 교재내용의 변화가 있어야함을 보인다
