The nature of complex modern society inevitably creates intricate problems that can be solved by the computational and logical reasoning. The programming education in Informatics can effectively raise the ability of computational thinking. The paper proposes and evaluates a STEAM curriculum that can draw the interest and attention of students. The curriculum educates the multi-disciplinary knowledge from science, music and informatics, and it was designed to have group discussions with self-directed study. The experiments were performed with $4^{th}{\sim}6^{th}$ grade gifted students in Informatics from elementary schools. The Arduino was used as the experiment environment. The experiment results reveal that the interests in Informatics and programming have been escalated after the STEAM class; 75% of students expressed the surge of interest in computers and 93% of students responded positively to the Arduino-based class. The effectiveness of the experiment outcomes was validated with t-test.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the health status and nutritional condition of children living in a low-income community through anthropometric, laboratory evaluation. Methods : A community-based survey identified children below 15 years living in a low-income community. Their weight, height, visual acuity, hearing level and dental status were measured. Blood sample were obtained on June and July, 2004. Hemoglobin, serum cholesterol, Hepatitis B antigen/antibody, AST and ALT were measured. Results : A total of 285 students(M : F=141 : 144) aged 6 to 14 years were included in this study. The heights and weights in some grades were smaller than controls. The prevalence of obesity was 10.6 percent in males and 10.7 percent in females. The prevalence of abnormal visual acuity, hearing impairments and dental carries were 20.5 percent, 0.3 percent and 69.4 percent. The prevalence of anemia was 10.1 percent. Serum total cholesterol was over 200 mg/dL in 7 percent. They complained of abdominal pain(22.1 percent) and headache(17.1 percent). Hyperthyroidism, cataract, neurofibromatosis, severe atopic dermatitis, ventricular septal defect, strabismus and inguinal hernia were newly diagnosed. Conclusion : Mean heights and weights of children in the low-income community were smaller than controls. The prevalence of abnormal visual acuity, hearing impairment and dental carries were higher than in the 2003 national health survey.

지난 97년부터 교사 및 학생들의 정보 활용교육 등이 강화되어 추진되면서, 교사에게는 정보소양 함양과 전문성 신장을 위한 다양한 형태의 연수가 이루어져 왔다. 특히, 기존의 출석수업 증설의 교사 연수는 연수시설의 부족과 시간적 제약 등의 문제로 인해 급변하는 정보화 시대에 대응하기 어려운 점이 있었다. 따라서 기존 연수의 문제점을 해결하고 디지털 정보사회에 적합한 연수체제 구축을 위한 대안으로 교원 원격교육 연수원이 도입 운영되고 있으며 해마다 그 수가 증가추세에 있다. 그러나, 이와 같은 양적 증가에도 불구하고, 정보교육 관련 원격연수에 대한 종합적 안내 체계가 미흡한 결과 현장의 교사들은 연수선택에 대한 정보제공이 적절하게 이루어지지 못했다. 또한, 2004년 4월 현재 53개의 원격교육연수원이 운영되고 있으며, 전체 교육과정 중 50%이상이 정보화 교육과정임에도 불구하고, 실제 다수의 교사들이 정보화 원격연수 기회를 접하지 못하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 현재 운영되고 있는 원격교육연수원의 지정 인가현황과 연수원별 교육과정 운영현황 등을 고찰해 보았으며, 현장의 교사들이 정보교육 관련한 원격교육의 필요성은 매우 높게 느끼지만, 실제의 이수상황은 그렇지 못하고 있다. 다양한 원격연수 기관에 대한 인지도가 매우 낮게 나타났으며, 결과 다수의 교사들이 자신의 관심과 흥미에 맞는 연수의 기회를 받지 못하고 있는 것이다. 문헌 및 설문조사를 통해 이러한 문제들에 대한 분석과 함께 개선방안을 본 연구에서 제안하고자 한다.
