These days, increasing information and communication ethics related crimes frequently covered by mass media are calling for information and communication ethics education. Education scholars have been doing a lot of studies on the measure to practice information and communication ethics education. There is a need for the courseware that can integratedly use information and communication ethics education methods, and this study aims to present courseware in case-based way as an alternative. This study aims to develop and apply a case-based program for information and communication ethics education amongst elementary schoolers, and to verify the effect. For this purpose, two groups that turned out to be homogeneous through a pre-test with information-listing courseware and case-based courseware were chosen and given education. And then, the two groups were compared though a post-test, and the effects of the programs was verified through pre- and post-paired test on each group.

A VR-Tangible Interaction therapy system for autistic children has been designed and implemented. The purpose of this system is to provide a virtual interactive experience for autistic children to check their performances in various tasks and to provide them with the effect of a medical treatment. An interdisciplinary study was deployed by a group of designers, doctors, psychologists and engineers. 14 interaction scenarios were designed and developed. Scenarios include such tasks as to guess a person's feeling by watching his facial expressions, to choose what a person is gazing at, and to pop virtual balloons with a stick. A prototype system was developed and a pilot study made with 11 autistic children. The test showed that autistic children easily understood and enjoyed the virtual environment, and promising theraphy results were also found.

The need and rationale for public participation in science and technology is widely acknowledged in academic communities and policy circles. In addition to institutionalized forms of participation, some STS researchers have paid attention to spontaneous forms of public participation, particularly with regard to social movement. This paper aims to explore a new form of public participation, which had been relatively neglected in STS studies. For this purpose, in this paper we examine environmental health issues and cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs) debates as examples of doing "undone science" in Korea. Our focus will be specifically on how environmental organizations and trade unions have both succeeded in making those issues as research and policy agenda for both scientific community and policy makers. In a concluding section, a couple of suggestions for further research are proposed.

This paper deals with a possible contribution to international relations and affairs by the discipline of geography and raises the necessity of a new field in geography that would study relations between nations. The proposed change of the name 'East Sea' is used as a case study in promoting international standardization. Two major international organizations oversee the international standardization of geographical names. One is the UN Conferences of the Standardization of the Geographical Names which work in association with the UN Group of Experts on Geographical Names, and the other is the International Hydrographic Organization. These two organizations have in the past passed all the relevant resolutions pertaining to geographical names. From recent developments on the Korean Peninsula, however, it has become evident that international disputes on place names sometimes require a long process of consultation with the relevant parties. Efforts being made to restore the historically appropriate name of 'East Sea' as opposed to the 'Sea of Japan' have only now begun to diffuse in many areas. It would be appropriate if geographers could develop a new area of 'Geography of International Relations' that deals with WTO, oceans, environment and climatic issues, FAT, as well as territories and boundaries. Furthermore, it would improve the quality of discourse if geographers participated more in the decision-making processes in international affairs.

우리 나라에서 초등영어 교육이 실시되는 연령층이 언어습득 분야에 있어 그렇게 일찍 언어학습을 시작하는 것이 학습효율성의 측면 또는 언어숙달도 측면에서 과연 이로운지에 관해서는 학자들간에 아직도 논쟁의 여지가 많다. 피아제의 인지발달론에 의하면, 의식적 조작이 잘 이루어지지 않는 분야가 바로 발 음분야이기 때문에, 따라서 의식적 조작이 이루어지는 '형식적 조작기'이전인 10-11세 정도에서부터 음성언어 중심의 외국어 교육을 실시하는 것이 바람직하다고 본다. 따라서 듣기와 말하기의 기능에 주안점을 둔 초등영어 교육은 감각과 놀이, 게임, 노래나 챈트 둥으로 흥미를 지속시키면서, 영어의 특질인 강세박자리듬언어(stress-timed rhythm language)의 특성올 초창기부터 듣기 및 말하기 훈련으로 지속적으로 연습시킬 필요가 있다고 본다. 또한 James Asher가 창안한 교수법인 천신반용볍(Total Physical Response)도 초기에 말하기에 대한 부담감 없이 흥미 있는 활동을 통하여 학습동기를 높여줄 수 있는 장점을 지니고 었다. 뿐만 아니라, 청취단계에 있어서 초기에는 귀로들은 외국어를 무조건 기억하지 않고 즉각적인 인지로 끌어내어, 점차 이와 같은 인지훈련을 반복함으로써 결국에는 기억에까지 도달하려 하는 초기학습에 중한 역할을 차지하는 학습법이다. 음성학적인 측면에서 초동영어 교육의 시작단계인 3학년에서는 특히 분절음소 차원에서 영어의 자,모음이 우리말의 자,모음과는 다르다는 차이점을 배우게 되고, 초분절 음소 중에서는 강세와 리듬의 차이를 자연스럽게 습득할 수 있도록 정확한 발음을 들려주어 정확한 발음을 해 낼 수 있도록 훈련하는 것이 중요하다고 하겠다. 하지만, 한편으로는 제6차 교육과정의 영어교육 목표가 언어의 '정확성'보다는 '유창성' 에 그 목표를 두고 있는 점을 감안한다면, 시작단계부터 반드시 정확한 발음을 지녀야 하는 가의 문제도 생각해 볼 필요가 있다. 경우에 따라서는, 정확한 발음은 그 언어에 대한 숙련도가 점차 높아짐에 따라 이와 병행하여 이루어지는 경우도 흔히 경험하는 일이기 때문이다. 결국 초등영어 교육과정에도 명시되어 있듯이 '...영어에 대한 친숙함과 자신감을 심어주고, 영어에 대한 흥미와 관심을 지속적으로 유지시키는 것이 중요하기' 때문에 무엇보다 중요한 측면은 흥미와 관심을 유지시키는 지적인 학습활동보다는 정의적인 학습활동의 전개가 필요하다고 하겠다.

Both Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing fields have been nearly neglected or ignored by historical geographers.This paper intends to show the potentiality of satellite images of various spatial reslutions to explore and to express themes of historical geography. Old Chinese maps and atlas were also used to relate the digital values and historical facfors. Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer data might be used as a real image for a contintal scale to show changes in coastal shoreline. Landsat Thematic Mapper Imagery of Beijing showed some of boundaries of old palace. Finally IKONOS images of one meter resolution showed detailed information of landcover and landuse of the City, Beijing. The potential capability and limitation to apply satellite imagery in application of historical geography are also discussed.

This paper aims to illuminate how the Naturalists' concern on geography and geography education, mainly in Comenius, Rousseau, Pestalozzi who have played key roles in the development of Naturalism, has developed and how the Naturalism has influenced on the development of geography and geography education. Starting from sensual realism, the Naturalism suggested the educational principle and methods adjusting to the Nature well as exercised great influence on the formation of modem school education toward popular common education. The geography took the firm position as subject in the curriculum of the Naturalists and achieved the rationale of existence as subject in curriculum with utility to expand human experience, thanks to Naturalists. The Naturalists developed several ideas on geography teaching method such as labouring activity-centered geography teaching based on strengthening sense and experience by 'look-and-see' approach, local geography-centered geography teaching with stress the local area as the focus of direct experience and living environment, and the real thing-centered geography teaching by fieldwork. Moreover, The Naturalists had an great effect on the geographer, Karl Ritter in terms of methodology of geography.

Crouzon syndrome is a rare disease, first decribed by Crouzon in 1912. This syndrome is cuased by mutations in the FGFR2 gene, which is mapped to chromosome locus 10q25-10q26. The condition occurs in about 1 of every 25,000 birth and is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. We experienced a case of Crouzon's disease in a 9-year-old-female child. Physical examination revealed craniosynostosis, hypertelorism, exophthalmos, hypoplastic maxilla and a relative mandibular prognathism. The purpose of this study is to report the dental and medical characteristics of the patient and review the literatures of Crouzon syndrome.

Research ethics is the basic attitude for researchers. Thanks to our predecessors we are able to conduct systematic studies. The current trend of results and the amount of study-oriented assessments make the side effect that researchers conduct SCI (Science Citation Index) studies. Since the Declaration of Helsinki, the importance of the right, safety and welfare for human participants have improved. In the present study, I looked into other countries' standpoints concerning the subject of the responsibilities for research ethics and compared them with Korean's standpoint. Recently, the Ministry of Health and Welfare revised the laws for bioethics and safety. In the point of bioethics, I checked out the function, exemption and process of the Institutional Review Board for the future researcher. It is suggested to use the research note to verify a study procedure and protect oneself from research misconducts.
