Mathematics is among the most important subjects in the middle school curriculum, yet the most hated subjects by students. The present study investigated the role of perceived executive functioning on the middle school student's mathematics achievement, after controlling for other psychological factors. Results showed that the students levels of executive functioning was predictive of their mathematics achievement test scores, even after motivational and attitude variables were controlled. The impact of the executive functioning was especially noticeable for the low achievers. On the other hand, for those whose scores were high, biological variables were the only significant predictors of their scores. The results of the present study imply that the intervention programs for improving mathematics achievement of middle school students should consider the different effect of cognitive and psychological factors on their achievements.

수학적인 사고력과 창의력이 강조되고 있는 요즈음 수학교육에서는, 이산수학적인 영역이 담당해야 할부분이 더욱 많아진 것으로 생각된다. 이에 발맞춰, 최근에 이산수학에 관한 연구가 활발해지고 있다. 그러나, 아직 초등학교에서 적절히 사용할 수 있는 별도의 이산수학 관련 서적이나 연구 문헌이 없어 아동들의 이산수학에 대한 관심과, 수학 성적과 이산수학의 문제 해결력과의 관계에 대하여 조사해 보았다. 이산수학의 문제들을 구성하여 아동들에게 예고 없이 평가하고 문제에 대한 수학적인 태도를 질문을 통하여 알아보고, 수학 실력이 우수한 학생과 그렇지 못한 학생들과의 이산수학 문제 해결력의 관계를 알아보고자 다음과 같은 연구 내용을 설정하였다. 이를 살펴보면 첫째, 초등 수학교육에서 이산수학에 대한 학생들의 반응에 대하여 생각해 본다. 둘째, 수학 성적과 이산수학 문제 해결과의 관계를 생각해 본다. 이상의 연구 문제를 해결하기 위해, 문헌 연구를 통하여 이산수학에 관련된 초등학교 내용을 소개하고, 문항을 구성하였다. 소개된 주제 중에서 4개의 주제(수 세기, 한 붓 그리기, 지도 색칠하기, 최소 거리 ${\cdot}$ 비용 수형도)를 선정하여 10개의 문항을 작성하였다. 조사 연구를 위한 대상은 서운 시내 2개 초등학교 5, 6학년 2개 반을 선정하였다. 각 문항의 정답율은 백분율(%)에 의하여 분석하였는데 그 결과를 살펴보면, 첫째, 수 세기의 정답율은 첫 번째 문항의 정답율이 낮았을 뿐, 다른 문항들의 정답율은 비교적 좋게 나타난 것으로 보아 문제를 이해하기 쉽게 구성하는 것이 중요하다는 것을 알게 되었다. 둘째, 한 붓 그리기와 지도 색칠하기의 문제들의 정답율은 상당히 높게 나타났는데, 그러한 것은 아동들이 직접 다양한 방법으로 시도해 봄으로써 문제를 해결할 수 있었기 때문인 것 같다. 또한 이러한 유형의 문제들은 아래 학년에도 투입해 볼 수 있을 것 같다. 셋째, 최소거리 ${\cdot}$ 비용 수형도의 문제에서는 난이도가 높은 이유도 있지만 문제 이해를 완전히 하지 못해 정답율이 무척 낮게 나온 것으로 생각된다. 넷째, 수학 성적이 높은 학생들이 대체적으로 문제 해결력이 높았던 것으로 나타났으나, 몇몇 학생들은 정반대의 결과가 나와 특이한 시사점을 제공했다. 그러한 이유로는 정형화된 문제들을 선호하고 쉽게 해결하는 아동들과, 그렇지 않은 아동들 사이의 문제 접근 방법의 차이라고 생각된다. 본 연구를 통하여 다음과 같은 제언을 하고자 한다. 첫째, 이산수학에 관련된 많은 문항을 개발하여 아동들에게 확대 투입함으로써 수학 수업의 효과와 문제 해결력을 높일 수 있을 것이라 생각된다. 둘째, 수학 실력이 떨어지는 아동들에게 보다 흥미있는 이산수학적 문제들을 제시함으로써 수학에 대한 자신감과 흥미를 높일 수 있을 것이라 생각된다. 셋째, 초등학교 과정에 알맞은 이산수학의 다른 주제도 학습 지도안과 그와 관련된 문제들을 개발하는 연구가 진행되어야 하겠다.

This study investigated when and how science gifted students decide their career planning. We used semi-structured survey and additional interviews from the students of Science High School in Daejeon area. We found 39.1% of science gifted students in 10th grade formed their career planning from their middle school periods. They had comparatively high levels of parenting support. The students chose their career fields based on their interests and aptitudes. However, some students were able to try and never give up with self confidence even when they had low scores, and teacher's reinforcements influenced positively. 71.3% of students thought that the grades take up the achievement of career development. Besides, the career programs which had specific purposes and directions were very effective by 33.3%~64.4%. Otherwise the effects were low as 2.3%~18.4%. Especially, R&E research programs didn't effect on students' career development and some students even frustrated with research. Based on the results, we need to reflect current career education and develop worthwhile career development programs for the science gifted students.

The purpose of this study was to examine the factors associated with adolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities. Analyses of data provided by 450 adolescents attending secondary schools in Gyeongnam Province suggested the following results. First, adolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities differed by gender, religion, and academic grades. Adolescents who were girls, who had religions, and whose academic grades were higher showed higher levels of positive attitude toward volunteer activities than their counterparts who were boys, who did not have religion and whose academic standing was lower. Second, adolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities significantly differed by the family factor. To be specific, parental attention, parental support and family's participation in volunteer work made differences to the adolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities. Third, the adolescents took significantly different attitudes toward voluntary activities according to the school factor. Significant differences were found according to attention and support from teachers. The students whose teachers had more interest in voluntary service and whose teachers offered more aid took a more positive attitude to voluntary service. Forth, some of the personal, family, and school factors were associated with adolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities. Among the personal factors, gender, religion, academic standing, and morality were associated with dolescents' attitude toward volunteer activities. Those who were girls, who were religious, whose academic standing was higher, and who were more moral took a more positive attitude toward volunteer activities. Among family and school factors, parental attention/support and attention and support from teachers affected the voluntary service attitude of the adolescents. The students whose parents had more interest and gave more support and whose teachers showed more interest and offered more support took a more positive attitude toward volunteer activities. Therefore parental attention and support were identified as the variable to make the best prediction of the adolescents' positive attitude toward volunteer activities.

Based on the sexual offenses committed in school, the present study investigated differences between habitual/repeated sexual offenses and one-off sexual offenses in terms of offender characteristics, victim characteristics, and offense characteristics. We examined a total of 218 sexual offense cases committed in school. As a result, we found significant differences in the age, job, and residential area between habitual/repeated and one-off sexual offenders in school. In addition, notable differences were found between habitual/repeated and one-off sexual offense cases in the age and alcohol use of the victim. Moreover, habitual/repeated and one-off sexual offenses in school differed significantly by offense planning, method of approaching the victim, type of sexual behavior, and victim resistance. Furthermore, we conducted regression analyses and identified multiple factors that contributed to lasting of the sexual offense in school. Finally, we discussed limitations of the present study and made suggestions for future research.

This study is a quasi-experimental study to find out the effect of school library-assisted instruction on middle school students' self-directed learning ability in Home Economics Education. For this purpose, the following research questions were established. 14 hours of school library-assisted instruction and traditional lecture were carried out to 164 9th grade female students(82 of experimental group, 82 of comparison group) of a girls' middle school in Jinju, Gyeongnam. To verify the instructional effect, a pre-test and a post-test for self-directed learning ability were carried out. SPSS 12.0 was used for statistical analysis. For statistical analysis, reliability analysis, frequency analysis, x2-test, t-test, repeated measures-ANOVA, and bivariate analysis were used. The results of this research were as follows: First, there was a statistically significant difference between experimental group and comparison group in the self-directed learning ability in all the subordinate items. Second, the change of self-directed learning ability by grade within the experimental group showed no interactional effect in all the sub-items except problem solving ability. Problem solving ability showed a meaningful difference in the rate of grade rising in accordance with academic achievement level and a higher synergy effect was shown in the low academic achievement group. Third, the experimental group showed a higher rate of rising in the self-directed learning ability than the comparison group, and the low academic achievement group showed a higher rising rate of grade than the high academic achievement group. Based on the results of this research, we concluded that the school library-assisted instruction was effective in enhancing middle school students' self-directed learning ability especially for the low academic achievement group.
