  • The purpose of the study is to investigate science process skills and suggest several considerations about developing scientific inquiries for secondary science gifted students. To do this, we analyzed scientific inquiries of science gifted programs and evaluated them on the quantity of problem perception, problem finding and inquiry planning that are regarded as high level science process skills, then revised each inquiry to include those high level skills. The result was that the first, there were differences in frequencies and types of science process skills among those inquiries. The second, there were very few problem perception and problem finding and were not many inquiry planning. The third, some of the revised inquiries showed those high level skills. From this, we would like to suggest we should construct scientific inquiries of science gifted program out of many and various themes. And there should be more high level science process skills such as problem perception, problem finding, and inquiry planning. For this, scientific inquiry developers should have intentions to involve such science process skills which is appropriate for science gifted student.

  • 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 students' recognition of the free inquiry activity and to investigate what effect the free inquiry activity of the 2007 Revised Educational curriculum revision has on the science inquiry ability of middle school students. To conduct the research we worked with 262 female students, 8 classes of first graders in a middle school. Among them, 4 classes were taught in free inquiry activity and the remaining 4 classes were taught in the traditional way. The results of Likert-questionnaire indicate that students were learning about cooperative spirit through group investigation activities and discussions and did not take the free inquiry activity as a hard activity. Also they showed positive reaction agreeing that this activity is both a helpful method in learning science and interesting. However, it seemed that the investigation tends to flow between the leading 1~2 members of the group and showed difficulty in carrying out the investigation as a group after school hours. It showed there are few problems and obstacles in operating the free inquiry activity. The free inquiry activity did not give any meaningful influence on the improvement of science inquiry ability of students. Integrative inquiry process skills did not give a relevant influence, however, it showed a meaningful influence on the improvement of basic inquiry process skills. Especially, among the low-ranking element of basic inquiry process skills, it enhanced the capacity for prediction.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare inquiry activities in science textbooks' physics contents for Korean secondary schools with those of Singapore in order to provide a reference for further improvement of inquiry activities in Korean science textbooks. We analyzed inquiry activities using the framework of Millar et al.(1998) and Chinn & Malhotra (2002). The results of this study are as follows: There are differences between Korean and Singaporean inquiry activities in the area of 'learning objectives', 'students' thinking activities' and 'degree of openness'. In the area of 'learning objectives', the Korean textbooks have more activities associated with the learning of science content than those in Singaporean, whereas the Singaporean textbooks have more activities associated with the processes of scientific inquiry than in Korean textbooks. In the area of 'students' thinking activities', the Singaporean textbooks have activities like 'test a prediction', which Korean textbooks lack. The 'degree of openness' is higher in Singaporean textbooks than in Korean textbooks. And some differences in the area of 'authentic scientific inquiry' between Korean and Singaporean textbooks were also found. While the Korean textbooks do not have any activities associated with 'generating research questions', the Singaporean ones feature such activities. In the area of 'designing studies', the Singaporean textbooks have activities corresponding to 'selecting variables' and 'controlling variables', while the Korean ones never have such activities. The results of this study imply that it is necessary to balance inquiry activities in the area of 'learning objectives', 'students' thinking activities' and 'degree of openness', and to present activities close to authentic scientific inquiry in inquiry activities in textbooks.

  • The purpose of this study was to understand characteristics of students' reflective inquiry disposition in the contexts of classroom and to find educational implications for the promotion of the reflective inquiry activity in the inquiry-based class. In this study, we determined a characteristic of the reflection inquiry by examining students' responses showed in response to the different class types in high school earth science inquiry class. The result of the study indicated that the difference between the newly developed class type to promote the reflective inquiry and the existing inquiry class type was found significant. The newly developed reflective inquiry class had a multitude of reflective inquiry statements related to various elements of data context in terms of the quantity and diversity of the reflective inquiry. In conclusion, we found that the newly developed class type had a positive impact on the students' reflective inquiry activity. We believe that the development of the inquiry activity to promote students' reflective inquiry is critical.

  • This study is to support the school's mathematics exploration activities. Mathematics exploration is a very important mathematical activity not only for mathematics teachers, but also for students. Looking at the development of mathematics, it has been extended from one mathematical fact to a new mathematical fact. Mathematics exploration activities are not unique to mathematicians, and opportunities are equally given to all ordinary people who are learning mathematics and teaching mathematics. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop a method of mathematics exploration activities that teachers and students can perform in schools, based on mathematics exploration activities based on one mathematical fact. Specifically, the cosine law was selected as one mathematical fact, and mathematical exploration activities were performed based on the cosine law. By analyzing the results of these mathematics exploration activities, we developed a method to explore school mathematics. Through the results of this study, it is expected that mathematics exploration activities will be conducted equally by students and teachers in the mathematics classroom.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze inquiry activities in the middle school science textbooks focused on the unit 'Nutrition of Plants' of the 2007 revision curriculum and the corresponding unit 'The Structure and Function of Plants' of the 7th curriculum in terms of content, process and contexts of inquiries. The average number of the inquiry activities in the unit 'Nutrition of Plants' was 9.2, which was a 3.8 decrease than in the unit 'Structure and Function of Plants'. In the respective of process of the inquiry activities, 'observation' was most prevailing in the basic inquiry process and 'data interpretation' was most prevailing in the integrated inquiry process in both of the units. In the respective of the types and contexts of the inquiry activities, 'experiment/observation' was most prevailing and the percentage of the natural scientific contexts was larger in both of the units. In the unit 'Nutrition of Plants', the components of the integrated inquiry process and the percentage of personal contexts were larger than in the unit 'Structure and Function of Plants'. And simulation activities were newly presented and technical contexts and natural environmental contexts were included in the unit 'Nutrition of Plants'. This study makes a suggestion that a wider variety of inquiry activities should be included when new science textbooks are developed.
