The objective of this study was to devise and empirically validate a model in which personal characteristic, infrastructure of business start-up, difficulties of business start-up influence the intention of business start-up. The research model was analyzed by the structural equation modeling(SEM) technique, supported by SAS 9.13 and SMART-PLS 2.0. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. Firstly, personal characteristic had a significant impact on intention of business start-up. Secondly, infrastructure of business start-up also had a significant impact on intention of business start-up.

Objective: The purpose is to study the factors to impact on the satisfaction of field practice among dental hygiene students and to provide the basic data for the quality improvement of the field practices for dental hygiene students. Methods: A self-reported questionnaires were filled out by 108 dental hygiene students in C city. Questionnaires were composed with the general characteristics, satisfaction to major, and satisfaction to field clinical practice. The data was analyzed by chi-square statistics using SPSS 20.0 program. Results: The higher satisfaction to communication with professor or seniors in department was associated with the higher satisfaction to field clinical practice (p<0.05). The higher satisfaction to field clinical practice hours per week was associated with the higher satisfaction to field clinical practice (p<0.05). The higher interest to major subjects and the satisfaction to the laboratory environment were associated with the higher satisfaction to field clinical practice (p<0.05). Conclusions: The higher satisfaction to major was associated with the higher satisfaction to field clinical practice. Therefore, the systematic curriculum development is needed to improve the satisfaction with major and clinical practice.

This study is aimed at providing the theoretical framework of characteristics of mathematical thinking processes and structuring the thinking process patterns of the mathematical gifted students through the analysis of their cognitive thinking processes. For this purpose, this study is trying to analyze characteristics of mathematical thinking processes of the mathematical gifted students in an objective and a systematic way, by using think-aloud method. For comparative study, the analysis framework with the use of the thinking characteristic code as a content-oriented method and the problem-solving processes code as a process-oriented method was developed, and the differences of thinking characteristics between the two groups chosen by the coding system which represented the subjects' thinking processes in the form of the language protocol through thinking-aloud method were compared and analyzed.

인터넷 이용 확산에 따라 학교 현장에서 교과의 특성이나 상황에 따라 학생들이 작성한 과제물을 홈페이지 자료실, E-mail, FTP 등을 이용하여 제출 받고 평가하는 사례가 늘어나고 있다. 이는 과제물의 공개, 과제물 수용 용량의 부족 현상, 평가에 따르는 불편함, 과제물을 또 다른 정보로 재활용 할 수 없는 문제 등을 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 XML에 기반을 둔 문제은행형 과제 제출 시스템을 설계함으로써 학생들의 학습 성취도를 향상시키고, 교사의 과제물 평가의 불편함을 해소하며, 제출된 과제물들을 유용한 정보로 재사용 하는 방법을 제시한다.

Scientifically gifted students' argumentation characteristics in science instruction using the internet messenger was investigated. Participants in this study were five 9th grader in middle school in Seoul. They attended a program offered by the Science-Gifted Education Center, Seoul National University. Internet messenger (instant messenger) was used for instruction, and data were collected by saved messages. Toulmin's argument model was used as a tool for analyzing students' argumentation, and the argumentation patterns were categorized by sequence of argument operations. The results showed that in case of learner-centered instructions, there were lots of relatively higher-level argumentations appeared. On the contrary, teacher-centered instruction ended up with few or lower-level argumentation. Also there were four types of argumentation patterns emerged throughout the whole instructions. Findings suggest that the development of an instruction models and the selection of an appropriate topic be necessary for promoting the interaction between teacher and students as well as enhancing the students' ability of argument.

According to a number of recent studies, Korean students' affective achievement was at much lower level than cognitive achievement, which indicated the needs for nationwide researches. Although a variety of effort was put into finding ways to improve students' affective achievement, few researches focused on teachers was being underway. Thus, this study was conducted with 327 secondary school mathematics teachers in Gyeonggi-do- by survey method to investigate on how teachers feel affective domain in their teaching practice, how much they it into account at class, and what their wills or plans are to put it into action. According to the results, there existed a distinctive gap between teachers and students in affective domain.

This article explores the impact of mergers on the experiences of students. A case design is used to gain an in-depth understanding of the students in a Korean university that was combined with a two-year college in 2007. Semi-structured interviews of 11 direct entrants, 5 transfer students, and 7 professors were conducted in 2010 for the data collection. The results suggest that mergers do not necessarily ensure the integration of the students involved. Since mergers pose enormous challenges to both transfer students and direct entrants, university leaders need to give careful attention to students' persistence and integration as the campus changes. The results also reveal that students' experience of mergers may be affected by cultural backgrounds as well as the hierarchical structure of higher education. In Korean society, where credentialism prevails, mergers can have different impacts on students who come from initial institutions of differing perceived quality, and thus mergers may incite tension among the students. In light of these concerns, this study's findings highlight the importance of student integration as a key element in mergers.

이 연구에서는 창의적인 문제해결능력을 검사하는 도구로 널리 알려진 개방형 문항 5 문제를 수정 또는 번역하여 중학교 2학년 학생들에게 적용하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 검사도구에 대한 양호도 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문항 내적 일관성 신뢰도(Cronbach ${\alpha}$)의 계수는 0.8이다. 둘째, 문항반응이론에 근거한 문항의 적합도 지수는 모두 1.2미만으로서 분석모형에 적합한 문항이라고 볼 수 있다. 또한, 문항간의 난이도의 차이는 로짓트 점수가 0.6을 넘지 않은 범위에서 골고루 분포되어 있다. 셋째, 문항 신뢰도 지수가 모두 0.80보다 높은 것으로 나타나 사용된 문항들은 서로 잘 분리되어 창의적 문제해결력을 추정하고 변별하는데 무리가 없다. 학생들의 반응에 대한 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 문항1에서 곡선을 이용한 반응은 영재학생들에서만 발견할 수 있었다. 문항2에 대한 각 반응의 독창성 점수는 모두 0이다 이것은 문항2가 널리 알려진 문제에 기인한 것으로 해석된다. 문항3은 영재학생들이 더 많은 반응을 보인 것으로 모든 반응이 독창성 점수를 부여받았다. 문항4에 대하여 일반학생들은 거의 반응을 하지 못하였다. 문항5는 대부분의 학생이 반응을 하였으며 반응의 종류도 가장 다양하였다.

This study aims to develop strategies for improving the affective characteristics of Korean students based on results from international achievement tests. In pursuing the goal, different research methods are employed including a) analysis of the theories and literature regarding the affective domains included in PISA and TIMSS studies; b) analysis of the current situation and needs of Korean students with respect to the affective factors based on PISA and TIMSS results; c) case studies of best practices in relation to students' affective domains in Korea and abroad; and d) development of strategies for improving and supporting Korean students' affective characteristics. Especially, this paper deals with the analysis of the results from in-depth interviews and class observations, so as to identify the current situation and best practice cases of students' affective characteristics education in Korea. The results are classified into a) curriculum, which is in turn divided into national curriculum and reconstruction of curriculum school and classroom; and b) teaching, learning and evaluation, which is in turn divided into learner characteristics, motivation, teaching strategies, class grouping, activities and interaction, question and feedback, evaluation methods, and evaluation tools. Support plans in terms of school and social environments are also suggested based on the results.
