This study aims to investigate the opinions of students who joined the Jeju Scientific Research Academy, a scientific research program with a mentoring system. The 50 middle school students and 50 high school students in the study were chosen as participants after being judged on their research plans. According to the study, students became more confident in research activities and could have a new point of view on research through interaction with a mentor. They were also very interested in the scientific research program of the Jeju Scientific Research Academy and found it helpful to understand the scientific concepts. Therefore the study shows it is necessary to consider actively the introduction of the mentoring system for the scientific research program. The follow-up study should be done to determine which factors influence on the inquiring minds and the understanding of scientific concepts of the students during the experience of the program.

This research intends to examine how 6th graders (age 12) generalize various increasing patterns. In this research, 6 problems corresponding to the ax, x+a, ax+c, ax2, and ax2+c patterns were given to 290 students. Students' generalization methods were analysed by the generalization level suggested by Radford(2006), such as arithmetic and algebraic (factual, contextual, and symbolic) generalization. As the results of the study, we identified that students revealed the most high performance in the ax pattern in the aspect of the algebraic generalization, and lower performance in the ax2, x+a, ax+c, ax2+c in order. Also we identified that students' generalization methods differed in the same increasing patterns. This imply that we need to provide students with the pattern generalization activities in various contexts.

The purpose of this study was to develop an artificial intelligence-based marine ecological education program to improve the ecological sensitivity of elementary school students. The program was taught 11 times within 4 weeks, and an ecological sensitivity test was conducted before and after the program. The statistical results of the tests showed that the developed program improved the ecological sensitivity of elementary school students. Through in-depth interviews, improvements were found in all the areas, such as empathy for the living things, interest in nature, enjoyment of nature, and wonder about nature. Through the marine ecological classes, which used artificial intelligence and virtual reality, the students were able to get closer to nature, and the student participation activities showed a positive effect on their ecological sensitivity. This indicates that experience-oriented education methods are more effective than simple explanatory classes to improve the students' ecological sensitivity, and artificial intelligence technology proved effective in increasing the students' immersion in the class.

오늘날 제 7차 교육과정은 학습자의 사고과정과 능력을 다양한 평가방식으로 실시하도록 권유하고 있다. 이러한 목적을 구현하기 위하여 수학과 평가는 교수-학습에 유용한 평가, 과정 중심의 평가, 다양한 방법을 활용하는 평가가 되어야 할 것이다. 이는 학습자로 하여금 스스로 학습하도록 가정하는 인식론적 변화에 바탕을 둔 최근의 평가 동향과 맥을 같이 하고 있다. 평가에서 학생의 수학활동 역시 특히 인지적 영역의 다양성을 지닌 개인에 의하여 이루어지기 때문에 수학 평가는 단편적인 정형화된 지식이 아닌 문제 해결의 전략이나 발견술과 같은 요소에서 강조되고 있는 비정형의 문제들을 통한 메타인지적인 발달과정을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 학생이 준개방형 평가문제를 해결하는 과정을 통해 자신이 얼마나 알고 있는가를 인식하며 자신의 문제 해결 전략을 점검하고 평가하는 인지적 능력에서 일어나는 변화를 알아보는 데 그 목적이 있다. 지금 현재 연구가 진행 중이며 본 연구의 결과는 다음 논문집에 발표할 예정이다.

In computer subject assessment based on attitudes and skill, it is necessary to assess the ability of analyzing, capability, and attitudes. In this research, we propose a new method of performance assessment for computer subject. We made an experiment to prove this method in school. The result shows that the performance ability of students is more correctly assessed.

새로운 세기의 수학 교육은 직관과 조작 활동에 바탕을 둔 경험에서 수학적 형식, 관계, 개념, 원리 및 법칙 등을 이해하도록 지도되어야 한다. 즉 학생들의 내면 세계에서 적절한 경험을 통하여 시각적 ${\cdot}$ 직관적으로 수학적 개념을 재구성할 수 있도록 상황과 대상을 제공해야 한다. 이를 위하여 컴퓨터 응용 프로그램을 활용한 자기주도적 수학 개념 형성에 적합한 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 모델을 구안하여 보았다. 이는 수학의 필요성과 실용성 인식 및 자기주도적 문제해결력 향상을 위한 상호작용적 매체의 활용이 요구된다. 본 연구는 구성주의적 수학 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 이론을 근간으로 대수 ${\cdot}$ 해석 ${\cdot}$ 기하 및 스프레트시트의 상호 연계를 통하여 수학 지식을 재구성할 수 있도록 학습수행지를 제작하여 교사와 학생의 다원적 상호 학습 기회를 제공하는 데 주안점을 두고자 한다.

In this study, researchers developed the criteria evaluating mathematically gifted students' creative products, which contain such evaluation headings as cognitive abilities(; creativity, analytic thinking, expert skill and knowledge), performing ability of the Mathematically Gifted-Creative Problem Solving process. And then a case study is carried out to apply the criteria to an actual condition of mathematically gifted education. This case study shows that how teachers can apply those of model and criteria in actual condition of the mathematically gifted education. Through the criteria above mentioned, the characteristics of creative productivity can be grasped clearly and evaluated in detail.

The purpose of this study is investigating the various properties related with mathematical processes in the mathematical essay lessons, analyzing the positive changes of students, and proposing an example that the mathematical essay lessons can be a model for changing traditional mathematical lessons. To carry out the research, mathematical essay questions were developed based upon the high school mathematics curriculum in probability and statistics domain. Eight 12th graders were participated for the research. Variety of properties related mathematical problem solving, reasoning, and communication in the lessons were appeared. The research conclude that mathematical essays are helpful not only appearance of general properties related mathematics process, but also appearance of properties that would be low chance of developed.

Social study for province textbook is very difficulty for experience and learning in classroom because the contents of social study for province text book is consist of contents about very far away places. And there are less contents than normal subject. Especially, children need experiences and enough contents for learning in social study for province textbook. The purpose of this paper are as follows: 1) design and implementation of PVR contents 2) applying 4th grade social study for province textbook 3) inspecting for satisfaction degree and result of students about the efficiency of PVR contents.

In recent domestic and international curriculum it is emphasized that students should acquire 'problem solving' competence as a member of knowledge information society and various programming educational methods of improving problem solving competence have been studied. But there is no difference between programming problems in related research and traditional programming courses. Most methods of solving problems are focused on acquiring specific languages rather than enhancing problem solving ability. In this research, we developed a suitable programming problems and curriculum for fostering problem solving competence and designed and developed teaching and learning contents based on PSA(Problem Solving Activities). Furthermore, we obtained meaningful results of improving learners' problem solving ability and logical thinking ability by operating curriculum with developed contents as learning materials. The results of this research are expected to be used as a reference model or basic teaching materials for developing and operating the programming teaching and learning contents or curriculum to enhance problem solving competence.
