The purpose of this study was to compare the preferences for seafood in school lunch menus among elementary school students in Gyeonggi-do. A survey was carried out on 303 male/female elementary school students. As for the preferences for seafood in school lunch menus, 'like (47.2%)', 'fair (30.7%)', and 'dislike (22.1%)' were observed in that order (p<0.01). Concerning the appropriateness of seafood serving frequency, '1~2/week (44.9%)', '3~4/week (33.7%)', and 'everyday (10.2%)' were observed in that order. When the preference of favorite seafood was evaluated using a Likert scale (strongly like 5-points, strongly dislike 1-point), 'crustacea (4.34)', 'mollusk (4.21)', and 'processed food (4.11)' were observed in that order. In terms of cooking methods for seafood, 5th grade students showed higher frequency of 'grilling' and 'frying' seafood compared to others (p<0.05). As for the occurrence of seafood leftovers, 4th and 6th grade students showed higher frequency of 'sometimes' than 5th grade students (p<0.001). As for certain desires for seafood in school lunch menus, 'improvement of taste (39.3%)', 'various kinds of seafood (20.1%)', and 'variable cooking methods (18.5%)' were observed in that order. Therefore, in order to increase the intake of seafood, students should attempt to achieve proper intake though nutrition education.

양수와 음수의 취급이 처음으로 시작되는 제 7-단계 교과서들을 살펴본 결과 양의 부호, 음의 부호가 붙은 수를 읽는 방법과 유리수에 대한 일부 교과서의 정의는 재고해야 하며, 반대의 수 곧 반수를 정의하여 활용하는 것과 양수와 음수의 도입은 대소 관계를 다루는 곳에서 그 정의를 하는 것이 바람직함을 알 수 있었다. 연산에서는 양의 부호와 음의 부호가 붙은 수에 대한 가시적인 표현을 충분히 익히게 하여 초등학교에서의 연산 도입을 구체적이고 가시적으로 처리한 것과 같이 양수, 음수의 연산에도 그 방법을 연계하여 활용 할 수 있도록 하는 것이 바람직하다고 생각되어 화살표(유향선분)를 사용하여 양수 음수를 가시적으로 도입한 후에 이들을 사용하여 초등학교에서의 계산 방법을 양수 음수까지 확장된 수에까지 그대로 적용한 학습 내용을 제시하였다. 그리고 제시한 학습 내용으로 지도를 하여본 결과 이와 같이 연계된 학습내용이 보다 바람직한 것임을 알 수 있었다.

제7차 교육 과정의 7학년 과학교과서에서 화학영역의 용어를 분석하고 한자 화학용어에 대해 한문 선택반과 비한문 선택반 학생들의 난이도와 이해도를 분석하였다. 7학년 과학교과서에서 한자용어의 비율은 6차 교육 과정에 비하여 약간 줄어들었으나 여전히 70%가 넘게 높았다. 학생들은 추상적인 개념어를 주로 어려워했으며, 전문용어를 비전문 용어보다 어렵게 생각하고 구체어거나 일상적으로 많이 사용하는 용어를 쉽게 생각하였다. 학생들의 한자용어에 대한 이해도의 경향은 난이도와 대부분 일치하였다. 한자화학용어에 대한 이해도는 한문 선택반 학생들이 높았으며, 쉽게 전환된 화학용어에 대해 비교군의 차이가 없었고 모두 한자 화학용어에 대한 이해도보다 크게 향상되었다. 따라서 한자용어를 한글로 전환하여 가능한 쉽고 익숙한 한글 위주의 국 한 혼용의 용어로 교과서가 쓰인다면 과학교과에 대한 이해도가 향상되리라고 생각된다.

The present study explored the hours of living and playtime depending on existence of caregiver after school using the data from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey7071. KCYPS date collected on 1th, 4th and 7th grade children and their caregivers. The hours of living was categorized into sleeping, learning, reading and play times. Playtime was sub-categorized into time for using playing the computer/games, watching TV/DVD and playing with peer groups. The present study has shown that children in the fourth grade spent more time on learning, whereas reading children in the seventh grade spent more time on playing compared to those in other grades during the weekdays. Also, children in higher grades spent more time playing both on the weekdays and on the weekends. Students of all grades spent more time watching TV/DVD compared to other activities during the weekdays and the weekends. Children with a caregiver spent more time on learning and spent less time playing computer/game, watching TV/DVD and playing with peer groups than children without caregivers. As students moved up a grade, these results clearly appeared. Considering the results in this study, the allocation of hours of living and playtime of children altered depending on the existence of a caregivers.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate factors predicting internet game addiction in higher grade elementary schoolers according to gender. Methods: The participants were 898 elementary school students who were in 5th and 6th grade. Data were collected via a structured questionnaire from October 1 to November 20 2012 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, $x^2$ test and logistic regression with the SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. Results: The prevalence rate of internet game addiction group was 8.8% (boys 7.1%, girls 1.7%). In terms of gender difference, it was found that girls' stress coping behaviors were more passive than male students (t=-3.27, p=.001). In boys, variables that predicted internet game addiction were aggressive coping, active coping, internet gaming hours per day and academic achievements. In girls, variables that predicted internet game addiction were aggressive coping, close friends and academic achievements. Conclusion: The findings from this study indicate there is a need to develop positive stress-coping behaviors programs and prevent internet game addiction in higher grade elementary school students.

The purpose of this study was to examine the questions in the 'Matter' units of elementary science textbooks under the 7th curriculum. For the analysis, a total of 338 questions were extracted from 15 units. Six criteria (recalling, recognizing, predictive, applied, divergent, and evaluative question) were reconstructed for textbook question analysis based on Blosser(1973)'s question category system for science. The results were as follows. First, there were more closed (recalling, recognizing, predictive, or applied) questions (72.2%) than open (divergent or evaluative) questions (27.8%) in elementary science textbooks. Second, cognitive-memory (recalling or recognizing) question type was the most frequently asked in all grade levels. Open (divergent or evaluative) questions increased according to grade level whereas convergent (predictive or applied) questions decreased. Third, question types were applied based on the characteristics of each unit rather than on children's developmental characteristics. Educational implications were discussed based on the results.

The goal of this research was to provide the basic data of sexual education for late schooler by finding out what they want to know about sex, or to see, if any, its relevancy between female and male students and between each grade. The sample for this research was a total of 453 students in 4th, 5th and 6th grade from 12 different classes at two elementary schools which were located in C city and in B province. The children were requested to write down three points on what they want to know or to learn most about sex, and their answers were put through two analytical stages in order to classify and to examine. The followings are the conclusions from the data. 1. The female cluster took 44.2% out of the whole sample, and there were 151 students per each grade. The specific girl ratios for each grade were 42.4%, 50.3% and 39.7% respectively. 2. It was noted that a total of 1,195 questions were gathered from the students writings, 45% of the questions was raised by the female students. The 4th grade students raised 432questions (43.8% by the girl) while the 5th. and the 6th grade students raised 387 (53.2% by the girl) and 376 questions (42.3% by the girl) respectively. The average number of questions per students was 2.6 while the female students raised 2.8 questions which was more than the average 2.5 questions by male students. It was the 4th grade female student cluster, which raised the most question (3.0) while the 6th grade male students raised the least question (2.4) in average. 3. The questions raised by the children could be divided into seven categories of the knowledge need on sex. They were Reproduction (310 questions, 25.9%), Sexual Culture (230, 19.2%), Concept of sex (125, 18.0%), Changes of Puberty (172, 14.4%), Sexual Health (119, 10.0%), Anatomy and Physiology of Reproductive System (78, 6.5%) and Sexual Tendency and behavior (71, 5.9%). 4. 'Reproduction' was the most frequently raised questions not only by both sex groups but also by the 5th grade students. Both sexes in the 4th grade showed the highest interest in Sexual Culture while it was Changes in Puberty for the both sexes in the 6th grade. The knowledge need on sex of the children indicated what they understand sexuality. They apprehended sex as sex, gender and sexuality in an inclusive way. They showed a major interest in the biological sex and the sexual activities. It seems that the children managed to understand clearly the meaning of gender, furthermore, they even pointed out that the streotyped sex role, patrimonial system and the sexual discrimination were unreasonable. The students possessed not only the least but also the most negative understanding in regard of sexuality. Two suggestions were made from the above conclusions for the practical sex education as well as its research. 1. For the practice: The sex education for the elementary upper grade school student should be relevant with their cognitive characteristics, also it should be more specific on the reproductive organs of both sexes, the actual scenes of the pregnancy and child delivery procedures. The gender concept should be added to the biological sex education, which will lead them to understand the unreasonableness of today's male-superior phenomenon and correct them. It is also necessary to develop educational programs for this age group so as to help them to understand sex in the sense of sexuality as well. 2. For the research: It is not easy to draw out a through conclusion since this study was carried out as one-time data collection. Yet it is undeniably helpful for the sex education if we can understand what the children want to know about sex, how much they know about it by conducting deep-interview researches through a small number of sample.
