This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of waxy corn noodles (WCN) made with different defatted soybean powder (DFP). The WCN was evaluated for their cooking properties (weight, water absorption, volume, and turbidity), color values, texture characteristics, and sensory characteristics. The weight, water absorption, and volume of cooked WCN increased according to DFP content, whereas they significantly decreased relative to those of control noodles. The turbidity of cooked WCN decreased with increasing DFP content. The L-value of cooked WCN decreased relative to that of control noodle, whereas a- and b-values increased. The hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness of cooked WCN increased with increasing DFP content, whereas chewiness and gumminess decreased. The texture characteristics of cooked WCN decreased compared to control noodles except for adhesiveness. Sensory evaluation indicated that the appearance, flavor, and overall acceptance of cooked WCN were better than those of control noodles. Overall, DFP can be used as an effective ingredient to improve the quality and sensory characteristics of WCN.

The construction of Daedeok Science Town, located in Yuseong ward of Daejeon metropolitan city, began in the early 1970s. It started out as a national project to form an agglomeration of the major central government research institutions. Since that time Daedeok Science Town has also attracted private research institutions, mainly during the 1900s. This study geographically analyzes this research institutions to clarify the regional identity of Daedeok Science Town through an integrated approach of existing new regional geography approach, which is characteristics of labour market as the regional pattern of its laborers' residences, spatial labour division, its research network with other institutions, and networks of university, research institution, and corporations, through the spatial spread of intellectual right of property and through network of technology business incubator relationship with spin offs which is appeared to spatial interaction. The results of the study are as follows: First of all, Daedeok Science Town was not only self-sustenance with marketing garden of agricultural regions in the suburb of Daejeon city but also was consign of agricultural products to Daejeon city before 1972. Since that time, the identity of Daedeok Science town has been formed by externally factors of the science development, by the local decentralization of population and public offices in Seoul metropolitan area in terms of the world economy system, and by the internally accessibility maximization of the central location in Korea between 1992 and 1999. On the part of Daedeok Science Town it has some merits of in-migration from nation-wide, and of mother city's Daejeon. Lastly at the period of the venture business beginning after 1999, the role of institution, developing the existing high technology, made great contribution to an attraction of ventures business to here in need of high technology industry growth, including knowledge-based industry in the informated society. On these bases, Daedeok Science Town seems to grow spontaneously as a science park.

This study examines spatial characteristics of residential distribution and occupational composition of Korean emmigrants who live in China, United States, and Japan. The data used are The Conditions of Korean Emmigrants published by Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1995. Analysis method used this data are as follows: 1) to clarify the tendency and spatial distribution of Korean emmigrants in each nation. 2) to grasp the residential distribution of Korean emmigrants in China, United States, and Japan where many Koreans have lived. 3) to analyze the occupational composition and its spatial characteristics of Korean emmigrants. The main findindgs obtained are summarized as follows: Farmer, forester, stock farmer, and fishery occupy over 50% of the employees of Korean emmigrants in China; traders and other employees occupy about three-fourths of the employees of Korean emmigrants in United States; and other employees occupy about 80% of the employees of Korean emmigrants in Japan. Therefore, the ratio of occupational composition of Korean emmigrants was influenced by emmigration motive, level of economic development of emmigration nation, restrictive condition for ethnic minority, and social status before emmigration etc. Specialized occupational composition in region where many Korean emmigrants in each nation lived was that the highest specialized occupation in region including primary city in population scale is trader; the highest specialized occupation in region including secondary city is manufacturing employee, and the highest specialized occupation in region including third city has transitional characteristics of each region including primary and secondary city. And professional occupation such as lawyer, doctor, religionist and educator appeared to the region including primary city. Finally, Korean emmigrants in United States and Japan contributed to the revitalization of inner city areas. And potential ethnic organization can be seen in church, mass media, and enterprise association in United States, but it can be seen in community shopping association in Japan, Because American society is based on Christianity but Japanese society is not.

Regional specialty products should be representative of the regional characteristics for a long time, this was not done for geographical research. This study examines current the regional specialty products on 12 web-site of the cities counties in 2013 and the products registered on the Tosan(土産) category from old Jiriji(古地理誌) in Chungcheongbuk-do. Futhermore, the study analyzed periodical change and regional distribution characteristics of regional specialty products. Major findings are as Follows. First, current the regional specialty products types are 4 products(crops, marine products, forest products, livestock products) and 3 manufactures (processed food, handicraft, cosmetic products). Among the regional specialty products, various crops and processed food were distributed in all the regions. Second, the traditional products types are 5 products(crops, marine products, forest products, livestock products, mineral products) and 1 manufactures(handicraft) that registered on the old Jiriji in the Joseon Dynasty period. The jujube, ginseng and honey were cultivated in the most regions. Third, the traditional products types are 4 products except for marine products and 1 manufactures(handicraft) that registered on the old Jiriji in the period of Japanese colonial rule. Its total item numbers of the regional specialty products are greatly decreased, but items of handicraft relatively increased in the Danyang and Goesan regions. Finally, regional analyzing of current local items shows that there are only a few regional specialty products(18 items) that have historical traditionality.

To understand the structure and dynamics of different forms of learning, whether incidental or conscious, we have to study them as parts or aspects of concrete historical activities with specifiable contexts. This realization is more embodied in apprenticeship learning situations of the student teachers. In this perspective, this paper aims to understand the student teachers' experience on geography teaching as a participant observer in the secondary schools. The 9 student teachers during the teaching internship have written their 38 journals, which was quality analysed to find out key concepts for the purpose of this research. Major conclusions are suggested below as follows. First, the most student teachers were experienced in geography teaching in the secondary schools through the 2-weeks practice teaching. Second, in the positive perspective, student teachers observed on that teachers would teaching well interact with student and experienced teachers would settle down to student's studies. Third, in the negative perspective, student teachers observed on that teachers lecture with only text, and cooperative learning by student presentation in the geography class. Finally, In third person perspective, there is no students' or teachers' productive questions in the whole-class conversation. In addition to that the most mentor teachers lecture do all of the talking in class. In effect these student teachers' experiences, especially 'reality of the geography teaching' and 'practical knowledge of the novice mentor teachers or experienced mentor teachers', either reinforce or modify understanding about the geography teaching practices.

To effectively delineate the foundation of stone relics by GPR and seismic refraction methods, a geological engineering model was constructed with alternating layer of soil and gravel to a depth of 3 m. This study was aimed at mapping the boundaries of model ground structure and interfaces of alternating layer using the various frequency antenna in GPR survey and seismic velocities. Compared to the resolution from the high frequency antenna, the image resolution from the survey using 100 Hz antenna is the lower, but with the deeper image coverage. On the contrast, the deeper structure was not mapped in the higher frequency data due to higher absorption effect, but the shallow layered zone was distinctively resolved. Therefore subsurface images were effectively provided by integrating the data with 100 MHz and 450 MHz antennas for the deep and shallow structures, respectively. Regarding the seismic refraction data, the boundaries of the model and interface of the alternating layers were not successfully mapped due to the limit of the survey length. However, the equivalent contours of low velocity extended deep as considerable velocity contrasts with surrounding ground.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of applying the Question-Answer Relationship (QAR)strategy on the attitude toward science of the elementary fifth grade students whose learning styles have beenidentified. The population of the study constitutes the total of 97 elementary fifth grade students who wereassigned into a comparison (n=48) or experimental group (n=49). To understandhow the QAR strategy potentially influencedscientific attitude, both groups were surveyedin the areas of scientific attitude before and after the experiment. TheKolb's Test was used to identifythe students' learning stylein the experimental group. According tothe learners' learning style, the results have been compared and analyzed. The results of this study are as follows:First, the findings revealed a significant difference in the experimental group students' attitude toward sciencecompared to the comparison group. Second, four learning styles were identified among the studentsin theexperimental group: a) Accommodators (46.9%), b) Convergers (24.5%), c) Divergers (20.4%), and d) Assimilator (8.2%). Following the data analysis, there was no meaningful statistical difference between four groups oflearning styles with respect to their scientific attitude.Applyingthe QAR strategy in a science class seemed toimprove the accommodators, convergers, and divergers' scientific attitude positively.

The purpose of this study is to develop a science field study area using Geumgang(Geum River), fossil origins and various geological resources in Youngdong area of Chungcheongbuk-do as educational resources; and utilize them to develop an education program to cultivate earth science and topophilia. The Youngdong sedimentary basin (Cretaceous period) has a well-developed outcrop along the Geumgang and it is therefore easy to find various geological structures, plant fossils, and dinosaur fossils. Also, it has a distinct sedimentary structure, such as mud cracks, ripple marks and cross-bedding. Science field study area(6 observation sites) were developed based on school curriculum, textbook analysis, and professional earth science education panel discussion to create a convergence education program. The result of validating the developed program showed that all the items were satisfactory ($CVR{\geq}0.88$) in the test categories. The science field study teaching-learning model was applied to actual classes. The evaluation result for class satisfaction was positive, scoring Rickert scale 4.18. The result of observation about the outdoor classroom process in the science field study area revealed that students were able to form a new image of the beautiful scenery of the Geumgang. Also, the students could gain a new understanding, concept and value of various geological objects (sandy beach, stepping-stones, dinosaur footprint fossils, sedimentary formation), which naturally allowed them to form topophilia.

This study aims to investigate how the university educational programs about quadratic curves are operated in relation to the high school curriculum and what their effects may be, and the degree of understanding for the prospective and current teachers of the mathematical content knowledge about quadratic curves. To solve this research questions, we randomly selected three universities and one high school. Then we investigated the curricula of each department of mathematics education, compared them with the high school curricula, and conducted surveys of the professors' and students' conception on how much mathematical content knowledge they need to know about quadratic curves. The study resulted in the following conclusions. First, the curriculum on the subject of quadratic curves in the college of education is closely connected to the high school programs. This study's results showed that the college of education's curriculum includes a series of lectures regarding quadratic curves, and that within them, the mathematical content about quadratic curves associated with high school mathematics was thoroughly covered. Also, a large number of students who attended the lecture reported a significant increase in their understanding in regards to the quadratic curves. Second, it is strongly recommended to strengthen the connection between the college of education's curriculum and the actual high school education field. The prospective teachers think that there is a substantial need to learn about the quadratic curves because it is closely connected with the high school curriculum. But they find it challenging to put what they were taught into practical use in the high school education field, and feel that an improvement in this area is much needed. Third, it is necessary to promote, encourage and support the voluntary efforts to expand the range of the content knowledge in quadratic curves to cover the academic content associated with the high school mathematics.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different feeding ratios of whole crop barley silage on the embryo production in Hanwoo donors. All donors were basically fed 2.5 kg concentrate daily. Donors were divided into three groups according to the different feeding of forage; hay 70% and rice straw 30% (control, n = 21), whole crop barley silage 80% and rice straw 20% (T1, n = 25), and whole crop barley silage 60% and rice straw 40% (T2, n = 23) fed based on TDN 6.70/ BW 500 kg. All Hanwoo donors received a CIDR together with injections of 1 mg estradiol benzoate and 50 mg progesterone ($P_4$, Day 0). Four days later, they were superovulated with 28 mg FSH twice daily IM in decreasing doses over 4 days. Then donors received 2 doses of $PGF_2{\alpha}$ (25 and 15 mg) with the 5th and 6th injections of FSH on Day 6. CIDR were withdrawn at the 6th FSH injection and the donors received $100\;{\mu}g$ GnRH 36 h after the second $PGF_2{\alpha}$ injection. The donors were artificially inseminated twice, at 8 and 24 h after GnRH, and embryos were recovered 7 or 8 days after the 1st insemination. The flush rate of the donors following positive superovulation responses did not differ among groups (76.2~96.0%, p>0.05). The number of corpus luteum (CL) at embryo recovery also did not differ among groups (10.6~14.0, p>0.05). Furthermore, the mean numbers of total ova (9.4, 10.5 and 12.0) and transferable embryos (5.3, 12.0 and 6.5) did not significantly differ among the control, T1 and T2 groups, respectively (p>0.05). However, mean concentrations of serum $P_4$ of the T1 (64.2 ng/ml) and T2 groups (55.7 ng/ml) were higher than that of control group (43.3 ng/ml, p<0.01), while serum cholesterol concentrations in the control (105.8 mg/dl) and T2 groups ($96.9\;{\pm}\;mg/dl$) were significantly lower than in the T1 group (121.1 mg/dl, p<0.05). Conclusively, whole crop barley silage can be fed a good substitute for hay forage for Hanwoo donors. Furthermore the ratios of whole crop barley silage 60% and rice straw 40% might be more worthful for embryo production.
