This study examines the effect of children's school satisfaction on academic achievement using the Seoul Children Panel Study data. More specifically, this study aims to add new knowledge to understaning the causal relationship between school satisfaction and academic achievement by taking into account of temporal order of the events of interest. In the analysis, we examine the effect of school satisfaction at the 4th- and 5th- grades on academic achievement at the 6th grade while controlling for the other factors including the level of academic achievement at the 4th grade. The results show that children's school satisfaction significantly affects their academic achievement. The findings of this study have implications for the school social welfare programs that attempt to improve academic achievement of children by raising the level of school satisfaction among children.

The purpose of the study is to identify the grit and career preparation behaviors of healthcare major college students and to analyze factors associated with their academic achievements. A structured questionnaire survey was carried on 241 students at an university in D-city. The scores for grit, career preparation behavior, and academic achievements were 3.32, 2.87, and 3.44, respectively. The study results show statistical differences among academic achievements, motivation to choose major, and satisfaction with major and university. The strong and positive effects of grit and career preparation on academic achievements were found. The satisfaction with major(β=.279 p<.001) and grit (β=.224 p=.001) explained 23% of academic achievements. The results suggest various intervention programs based on multiple factors associated with grit and major satisfaction in order to enhance academic achievements.

Achievement pressure and enthusiasm affecting mathematics academic achievement are constantly changing and affecting academic achievement. Therefore, a longitudinal study is needed to examine the influence of the change patterns of teachers' achievement pressure and enthusiasm on the change patterns of academic achievement. This study utilized student data from the 5th grade of elementary school (2013 year) to the third grade of middle school (2017 year) of the Korean Education Longitudinal Study 2013. The longitudinal change patterns of mathematics academic achievement were classified into similar subgroups and the influence of the longitudinal change patterns of the achievement pressure and enthusiasm of each group on the longitudinal change pattern of mathematics academic achievement and the path were compared and analyzed. As a result of the analysis, in all four subgroups with similar longitudinal changes in mathematics academic achievement, the teacher's achievement pressure showed little change from the fifth grade, while the teacher's enthusiasm continued to decline from the fifth grade. In addition, the influence of teachers' achievement pressure and enthusiasm perceived by students in each group on mathematics academic achievement was different. This suggests that in order to improve mathematics academic achievement, it is necessary to support teaching and learning reflecting the characteristics and dispositions of students.

학습자는 교육의 3요소인 교육자, 학습자, 교육내용의 하나로 학습자 특성과 이가 학업성취에 미치는 영향을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 컴퓨터 비전공자를 대상으로 하는 컴퓨팅 교육이 점점 활발해지고 있다. 비전공자 컴퓨팅 교육이라는 맥락에서 학습자 특성과 학업성취의 관계를 이해할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 비전공자 컴퓨팅 교육에서 학습자 특성과 학업성취의 관계를 실증적으로 이해하기 위해 실행되었다. 학습자 특성을 이전경험/사전지식, 인지적 요인, 심리적 요인의 3가지로 분류하였고, 연구대상을 3그룹으로 설정, 다양한 하위 요소 데이터를 수집하였다. 그 결과, 대상 1의 경우 학습스타일(순차적: 부적상관, 통합적: 정적상관), 대상 2는 자기 효능감(사후), 대상 3은 수학 사전지식, 컴퓨팅과 전공의 연계성 인식, 정보적 사고에 대한 인식이 학업성취와 유의미한 상관관계가 있었다. 하지만 상관성이 모두 0.5이하로 크지 않고, 자기 효능감과 전공 연계성 인식의 경우 대상에 따라 결과가 상이하였다. 향후 연구에서 다루지 않은 변수에 대한 연구와 상관관계가 밝혀진 변수만을 대상으로 인과성을 확인하는 연구가 필요하다. 또한 현상학적 관점으로 학습자 특성을 고찰할 필요가 있다.

This paper estimates the peer effect of how improving the under-performing students can affect the academic performance of other students, focusing on the ratio of students more than proficient. We take advantage of the regression discontinuity design of the policy assignment rule of School-for-Improvement (SFI), which targeted the under-performing schools as an identification strategy. The estimation results from the 2009-2010 NAEA (National Assessment of Educational Achievement) reveal that the decrease of the ratio of under-performing students tends to increase the ratio of excellent or proficient students at around the policy cutoff. The finding turns out to be robust to various falsification tests.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of individual teaching strategies on mathematics achievement and mathematics attitude of students with low achievement in mathematics. As a result, individual instruction group showed higher mathematics achievement and attitude toward mathematics than comparative group. In the experimental group, there was a correlation between pre-mathematics achievement and post-mathematics achievement. Also, there was a correlation between post-mathematics attitude and post-mathematics achievement. Within the comparison group, there was a correlation between pre-mathematics attitude and post-mathematics attitude. Also, there was a correlation between post-mathematics attitude and post-mathematics achievement.

The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship of the subjective happiness, ego-resilience and academic achievement by type of giver, taker, matcher of nursing students. First, in the result of the type of nursing students, the Taker(43.0%) was the largest, the Matcher (40.1%) was next, the Giver (16.9%) was the least. The mean score of subjective happiness, ego-resilience and academic achievement were 16.9, 94.1, 3.3, respectively. According to the personality type, the Giver reported the highest academic achievement. But the Taker reported the lowest subjective happiness, ego-resilience and academic achievement. There were significantly positive correlations between subjective happiness and ego-resilience(r=.511, p<.001), and ego-resilience and academic achievement (r=.215, p<.05).

The purpose of this study was to identify the proper identification method of the gifted students in math and science. The subjects were 6,237 students from 3rd to 7th graders. The subjects took nation-wide tests which were made for identifying the gifted students. The tests were composed of creativity, thinking skill, and academic achievement in math and science. The results of this study were as follows; First, creativity and thinking skill were positively correlated with the academic achievements. Specially, the academic achievement of science was positively correlated with the all of the sub-factors of creativity and thinking skill variables. Second, the influential power of each variable differed depending on the identification methods. Also, group 1, which was considered all variables such as, creativity, thinking skill, and academic achievement, was the most proper way to identifying the top 1% students from the subjects. These results implies the variables of creativity, thinking skill, and academic achievement have to consider identifying the gifted students in math and science.

이 연구의 목적은 자기주도 초등교재의 조망인지기제 활용이 학업성취도 향상에 미치는 효과에 대해 살펴보고 학업성취도 향상에 영향을 주는 조망인지 하위 구성요소(계획, 점검, 평가)가 무엇인지 알아보고자 하는 데 있다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 실험집단(조망인지기제 활용 학습교재사용 집단)과 통제집단(기존 교재사용 집단)으로 구성된 초등학생 55명을 대상으로 실험을 실시하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 자기주도 초등교재의 조망인지기제 활용집단(M=70.38)과 전통식 학습집단 (M=60.84)의 학업성취도 평균은 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 조망인지 하위 구성요소 중 '점검' 요소가 학업성취도 향상에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
