This study aims to explore latent classes in terms of changing patterns in achievement motivation among the samples from elementary school to middle school students in multicultural families and to investigate factors to predict latent groups and their relationship with academic achievement. 1254 pairs of mother and child from the 1st to 6th years of Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study (MAPS) was utilized for the Latent Class Growth Analysis (LCGA), One-way ANOVA, Multinomial Logistic Regression. The results showed that there were four distinct subgroups within the samples in terms of achievement goal orientations (i.e. very-high changing group, average changing group, low stable group, very-low stable group) at all six time points, and students who reported high achievement motivation were likely to have higher academic achievement. Four groups were extracted based on parent's efficacy, students' self-esteem, and teacher's support. Suggestions and practical implications for understanding the types of subgroups for the achievement motivation of multicultural families were discussed.

This article analyzes the academic achievement of students who entered A university from 2011 to 2012 using grade point average (GPA). The purpose of this analysis is to find the relationship between admission factors and academic achievement. Contrary to our expectation, GPA of student selected from KSAT is higher than that of selected from CSAT. So, designing and running university entrance type, it is necessary to consider admission factors deliberately.

다각도로 분석된 학업 성취도를 신속하게 제공받는 학생들은 그렇지 않은 학생들에 비해 차후에 더 나은 학업 성과를 보인다. 그러나 현재의 한국 학교 현장에서 시행되고 있는 평가 방법을 이를 반영하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 서비스를 온라인으로 교사와 학생에게 제공하는 ‘학업성취도 분석시스템’인 SAAS를 설계하고 구현하였다. 이 시스템은 비즈니스 데이터를 다차원적으로 분석하여 부가가치를 창출하는데 쓰이는 신기술인 OLAP을 이용한다. 학생, 과목, 기간 차원에 대한 종합적 성취도 분석 결과가 산출되고, 이는 편리한 인터페이스를 통해 제공된다. 시스템의 성능향상을 위해서 분석결과의 부분적 사전연산 방식과 큐브의 청크 단위 저장 방식이 사용되었다. SAAS는 전국 단위 학생 성적 분석을 위해서도 쓰일 수 있을 정도로 성능면에서 확장성을 지니며, 제 7차 교육과정 개혁에도 적용이 가능하다.

Since the characteristics of teachers that affect mathematics academic achievement are constantly changing and affecting mathematics achievement, longitudinal studies that can predict and analyze growth are needed. This study used data from middle and high school students from 2013(first year of middle school) to 2017(second year of high school) of the Seoul Education Longitudibal Study(SELS). By classifying the longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement into similar subgroups, the direct influence of teachers' characteristics(professionalism, expectations, academic feedback) perceived by students on the longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement was examined. As a result of the study, it was found that the characteristics of mathematics teachers(professional performance, expectation, and academic feedback) in group 1(343 students), which included the top 14.5% of students, did not directly affect longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement. Students in the middle 2nd group(745, 32.2%) had academic feedback from the mathematics teacher, and the 2nd group(1225 students) in the lower 53%, which included most of the students, showed that the expectations of the mathematics teacher were the longitudinal mathematics achievement. The change has been shown to have a direct effect. This suggests that support for teaching and learning should also reflect this, as the direct influence of teachers' professionalism, expectations, and academic feedback on longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement is different according to the characteristics and dispositions of students.

The purpose of the study is to analyse students' academic achievement by their university major field and changes of grade. The subject was entering students of C medical graduate school in 2008. We divided entering students' major fields into two fields that are natural science and non-natural science filed. We analysed academic achievements of entering students by grades, curriculum from 2008 to 2011. And We analysed to find out whether there are differences in academic achievements by grades, curriculum of each major fields. There were no significant statistical differences in academic achievements by grade, curriculum of the two different university major fields. Futhermore, as a results of analysis on level(high, medium, low) distribution and differences of academic achievements by grade, curriculum of the two different university major fields, there were no statistically meaningful results. There is the need to keep entrance selection systems that open the possibility of selecting the students with other academic background. And there is the need to change general awareness assuming that there are differences in academic achievements by university major fields. We need to guide students with belief of their learning possibility.

The aim of the National Assessment of Educational Achievement (NAEA) is to produce specific and reliable resources required for the diagnosis and quality control of teaching and learning by measuring the level of students achievement based on the national curriculum. In 2002, we introduced ‘modified Angoff Method’ to obtain more systematic and rational results about the achievement levels. The result indicated the differences of achievement level according to the differences of sexes. Female students achieved higher scores than male students in Grade 6. Male students achieved higher scores than female students in Grade 9 and 10. Furthermore it disclosed a problematic phenomenon that students in small towns and rural areas showed significantly lower scores in all six sub-areas of Mathematics compared with students in metropolitan and cities. The results from the NAEA listed above could be used as the authentic data for improving national curriculum and teaching and learning methods, the establishment of educational policies, and many other areas.

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.

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 the present study is to examine the structural relationship among academic stress, achievement motivation, learning environment, school flow and learning persistence in cyber education. For this study, 879 students who were enrolled in S cyber university in Korea was chosen to conduct the survey. Achievement motivation was measured in the beginning of the semester. Academic stress, learning environment, school flow, and learning persistence were measured at the end of the semester through the web survey system. The results of this study were as follows: First, academic stress, achievement motivation, and learning environment significantly affected school flow. Second, academic stress, achievement motivation, and school flow affected learning persistence, but didn't affect learning environment significantly. The results imply that academic stress, achievement motivation, and school flow should be considered as the significant elements for constructing cyber education environments to enhance students' learning persistence.

This paper analyzed about gender difference in the achievement of underachievers of high school students while learning using technology. Participants were composed of 67 underachievers on first grade in high school located in a metropolitan city. That had never used a mathematics educational calculator before. Target participants were divided into two groups: experiment group that studied activity papers with a CAS calculator. And control group that studied the same activity papers using only paper-and-pencil. The content of the activity papers for the two groups was the same, but the structure differed. The two groups completed mathematics achievement tests both before and after the activity papers. The results are that find out no difference of the mathematics achievement between boys and girls in each group, and that the mathematics achievement of boys in experiment group are better than one of boys in control group, and also girls.
