A study was conducted to identify the general characteristics of some dental hygiene students and to identify the factors affecting the achievement goal orientation and academic achievement according to the teaching method selection for increase the academic achievement of the subject in the special education environment caused by the COVID-19. In the second semester of 2020, a survey was conducted on 122 students of G University's dental hygiene department located in Gwangju, and the general characteristics and achievement goal orientation were surveyed. Academic achievement has used the midterm and final exam scores and the collected data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson's correlation test, Multiple Linear Regrission. According to the general characteristics, there was a significant difference in subject understanding, subject interest, and subject satisfaction, and learning satisfaction showed a strong correlation with the completion goal tendency. There was a significant difference in academic achievement according to the class choice, and the factor that influenced the academic achievement was the case that the teaching method was chosen face-to-face. Therefore, in order to improve learners' academic achievement, it is necessary to increase the proportion of face-to-face classes and to establish an effective lesson plan that can increase the degree of subject understanding, subject interest, and subject satisfaction.

Clarifying differences of scholastic characteristics showed in male and female students is the first step for resolving the differences. It is difficult that we figure out them by one test. If we evaluate a few subjects, they can't have generality. So, we must evaluate lots of subjects through several years by all-around contents. We keep going on like that, we can get objective and valid results. Accordingly, I dealt with 2010~2014 NAEA taken by complete enumeration evaluation for elementary, middle, and high school students. From the evaluation, while I organized the achievement scores and the average of percentage of correct answers from aspects of whole test, item types, and content domains, I elicited from differences of scholastic characteristics showed in male and female students by achievement levels. On the basis of these, I explored ways which can resolve the differences in male and female students and I proposed several suggestions to look for the better ways.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the results of physics (optics) in nationwide standardized assessment and to investigate middle-school students' characteristics of achievement by using an option response rate distribution curve. For this purpose, we analyzed the 10 optics problems from the National Assessment of Educational Achievement (NAEA) items for middle school science subject conducted in 2010-2013. The results of this study are as follows; First, students showed a little higher achievement in optics than classical mechanics and electromagnetism. Second, students achieved significantly worse in 'formation of image' in 'light' part and 'variation of phase in propagation of wave' in 'wave' part. Third, students showed a context-dependent problem solving strategy and result. Additionally, we suggested some implications about the readjustment of some optics concepts level of national science curriculum, the need for teaching and learning strategies for basic level students, and the need for teaching and learning strategies focused on the realistic context.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship among fatigue, personality, learning strategies, and academic achievement of medical students. 146 students from year 1 to year 4 at one medical school participated in this study. Students completed the fatigue, Big Five personality traits(Neuroticism, Extraversion, Openness, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness), learning, strategies. The academic achievement of students measured by GPA. The data were analyzed by t-test and stepwise multiple regression. The student's fatigue differed by grade, and the students of low grade had higher scores than high grade. But personality traits and learning strategies were not significantly different by grade. The factors that affect on academic achievement differ by grade. In low grade, neuroticism, extraversion, and rehearsal affected students' academic achievement. In high grade, conscientiousness and extraversion had an effect on the academic achievement of students. These results could guide the design of medical education improvement, and be useful in developing a supporting program for medical students.

Our government has used the result of National Assessment of Educational Achievement(NAEA) with one of data to check and improve the existing curricula and educational policies. The reason to devote these efforts is for the purpose of boosting the students' academic ability. Here, one of works based on the growth of the students' academic ability is to grasp what contents they are vulnerable to. Next work is to improve the methods to teach the appropriate content. So, in this paper I grasped the tendencies of the whole students and male/female students in middle school to appear in the results of 2010, 2011 NAEA. On the basis of those I grasp what contents the whole students and male/female students are vulnerable and I suggest the implications of teaching and learning for those contents.

This study analyzes the effect of poverty on child development outcomes including academic achievement, self-esteem, depression/anxiety, attention problems, aggression, and delinquency. The poverty experiences among elementary school children are longitudinally observed during 3 years between the 4th grade and the 6th grade. When development outcomes are compared among persistently poor children, transitory poor children, and non-poor children, academic achievement is found to be significantly different. The analyses of the relationships between the poverty status and developmental trajectories show that academic achievement among non-poor children has improved over time, while the level of poor children's achievement has decreased. The result also shows that problematic behaviors such as attention problems, aggression, delinquency has improved over time among all the children. Yet, the gap between poor and non-poor children has not decreased. The multivariate analyses indicate that the effect of poverty remains statistically significant only for academic achievement after children's individual and familial characteristics are controlled. Past experiences of poverty in addition to the current poverty affect academic achievement and persistent poverty has a stronger effect than transitory poverty on academic achievement, although the findings are not consistent across all the estimated models.
