By using robot programming curriculums, we are able to help the learners to improve academic achievement. But these curriculums reduce the level of participation, because most of the robot programming curriculums consists mainly of understanding simple grammatical sentences. Storytelling provides a variety of educational methods to improve logical thinking of children on their experiences and offers positive learning motivations to the learners. In this paper, we proposed the robot programming curriculum using storytelling and implemented the system to support it. By using this curriculum and visualization tools in this system, children can make a robot story and model easily with others. In addition, this robot programming curriculum and system can provide learning motivation and academic achievement to the children continuously.

This study aims to identify Archimedes' idea used while proving proposition 23 in 'Quadrature of the Parabola' and to provide an alternative way for finding the sum of geometric series without applying the concept of limit by extending the idea though metaphor. This metaphorical model is characterized as static and thus can be complimentary to the dynamic aspect of limit concept adopted in Korean high school mathematics textbooks. In addition, middle school students can understand $0.999{\cdots}=1$ with this model in a structural way differently from the operative one suggested in Korean middle school mathematics textbooks. In this respect, I argue that the metaphorical model can be an useful educational tool for Korean secondary students to overcome epistemological obstacles inherent in the concepts of infinity and limit by making it possible to transfer from geometrical context to algebraic context.

It is the advantage of robot programming to improve the learners' interest. However, the drawback is existed in the fact that it is not easy to determine whether the problem lies in the hardware factor or programmed logic when an error takes place. This study is an attempt to develop a simulation tool which assists learners to concentrate on the problems not relating to robot assembling but to robot program. It aims to enable beginners make a sketch of their ideas and examine their logic through simulation. Therefore, an Etoys-based robot programming tool is developed to allows user to download and execute the simulated program into an assembled robot. The significance of this study is that easy activity of sketch-based simulation can support learners to understand how the principles of computer science are applied in daily life such as an automatic door system.

This paper aims at advancing the understanding of human communication by reflecting the role of the consciousness of time in television communication. As the past, the present and the future are not independent realities, but co-exist in the human consciousness, the 'experience' and the 'expectation' are used as two essential conceptual tools which explain the mechanism of operation of the consciousness of time. The man anticipates the future based on the experience updated in the present, and chooses a present action and feels an emotion according to the expectation. The consciousness of time is extended to the symbolic instrument of time and the dominant vision of the world in the process of the socialization. The role of the consciousness of time in television communication is analyzed in both genres of information and fiction based on the media characteristics of television. The information and the fiction genres oppose to each other according to their relationships to the reality, but it turned out that their effects of communication such as enjoyment and novelty depends in common on the way of using the televiewer's consciousness of time.

From this research, we want to get results that have interested the difference from character of students with the motivation of the learning, confidence and habit through the activity oriented class. When teacher teach students of the learning disability with participant class and activity class, they have encouraged and have positive disposition about mathematics. Therefore teachers should try to give chance doing in mathematics class to students with learning disability.

The vocal language which is a symbolic vocal language described external sounds or expressed shape of things in nature, phenomenon, movement, shape of state provided images which can be envisioned in minds and created the mood for the whole writings. As the instructive ways of symbolic vocal language, the activities which refrain one-way translation for lexicon definition and stimulate the thoughts of students and interesting activities such as songs and comic books which students can understand by themselves are needed. Therefore, in this study, these symbolic vocal language is to be developed as the contents of robot for Symbolic Vocal language learning activities and after study activities, the possibility of using robot for education is to be reviewed, comparing changes in definitive areas and achievement after study activities. After the Symbolic Vocal language learning activities using robot and computer, as results of testing three achievement types of words simulated sound, shape, and movement, in study on words simulating sound and shape there was no significant difference. But The study activities simulating words used robot showed significant difference in terms of interest, confidence, and understanding.

The purpose of this study is to comprehensively analyze elementary school teachers' perceptions of the use of artificial intelligence in education. Recently, interest in the use of artificial intelligence has increased in the field of education. However, there is a lack of research on the perceptions of elementary school teachers using AI in education. Using descriptive statistics, multiple linear regression analysis, and semantic differential meaning scale, 69 elementary school teachers' perceptions of using AI in education were analyzed. As a results, artificial intelligence technology was perceived as most suitable method for assisting activities in class and for problem-based learning. Factors which influence the use of AI in education were learning contents, learning materials, and AI tools. AI in education had the features of personalized learning, promoting students' participation, and provoking students' interest. Further, instructional strategies or models that enable optimized educational operation should be developed.

This study was intended to explore the changes in teaching methods when freedom to choose curriculum, instruction, and evaluation methods is allowed and when 'free semesters' are free from entrance examination for high school. For this question, we analyzed free semester education plans of eight sample schools and interviewed 33 teachers and students respectively. The results were as follows. Firstly, all schools planned to use teaching methods for meaningful learning, although they are limited to those exemplified in guidelines for free semester. Secondarily, teaching methods adopted for free semester were characterized as activities enhancing student participation. Thirdly, teaching methods such as career exploration, scientific experimentation, cooperative learning, flipped learning, interdisciplinary learning were used only a couple of times in a semester. Changes in teaching methods were referred to enhance students' interest, confidence, self-regulation, creativity, problem-solving and cooperative learning.

In the past, to stimulate customers' rationality were used as a marketing methods but the storytelling marketing is appealing to consumers by showing product or brand value. Storytelling marketing attracts clients favorable attitude. In this research, I tried to figure out how emotional storytelling and humor advertising affects to brand attitude a quality of products according to advertising types, brand image, trust, interest, message, advertising model, intension of purchase and recommendation requisite to impact on brand attitude. As a result emotional storytelling was more effective than the humor advertising method when forming the brand attitude and brand image. Also, among the types of advertisement, emotional storytelling tended to bring a significant difference between men and women. Emotional storytelling advertisement are increasing and being competitive. Therefore, we need notable advertisement. It is a significant research to understand how advertising type affects to consumers.

The purpose of this study is to suggest didactical principles for using mathematical teaching aids and to applicate didactical principles in a relation with curriculum. First, we meta-analyzed related literature to suggest didactical principles for using mathematical teaching aids. And we suggested didactical principles as follows: principle of activities, principle of instruments, principle of learning. Using mathematical teaching aids with didactical principles in mind would help avoiding situations in which mathematical teaching aids are only used as interesting tools. Second, we concretized the meaning to applicate didactical principles and use mathematical teaching aids in a relation with curriculum. We considered domain, key concept, function, achievement standard, which were presented in the curriculum of mathematics, and suggested concrete activities. Third, we produced two designs for lessons on incenter and circumcenter of triangle and linear function's graph using mathematical teaching aids.
