The purpose of this study is comparing cognitive development of elementary $4^{th}$ graders and cognitive demand of activities in lesson 'The mirror and the shadow.' Also, the researchers tried to reveal how cognitive development of elementary $4^{th}$ graders and cognitive demand of textbook activities affects the achievement of students. To study students' cognitive development, the researchers use GALT(Group Assessment of Logical Thinking). Piaget's scientific thinking is used to evaluate cognitive demand of textbook activities. With several experts in science education the researchers discussed which scientific thinking is contained in each activities. The results were followed as : (1) The third of activities are significantly affected by students' cognitive development. (2) The another third of activities are influenced by not only students' cognitive development but also other factors experimental instrument. (3) The environmental factors had meaningful impact on the other third of activities.

Student engagement in high-level, cognitively demanding instruction is pivotal for student learning. However, many teachers are unable to maintain such instruction, especially in instances of non-responsive students. This case study of three middle school teachers explores prompts that aim to move classroom discussions past student silence. Prompt sequences were categorized into Progressing, Focusing, and Redirecting Actions, and then analyzed for maintenance of high levels of cognitive demand. Results indicate that specific prompt types are prone to either raise or diminish the cognitive demand of a discussion. While Focusing Actions afforded students opportunities to process information on a more meaningful level, Progressing Actions typically lowered cognitive demand in an effort to get through mathematics content or a specific method or procedure. Prompts that raise cognitive demand typically start out as procedural or concrete and progress to include students' thoughts or ideas about mathematical concepts. This study aims to discuss five specific implications on how teachers can use prompting techniques to effectively maintain cognitively challenging discourse through moments of student silence.

이 보고서는 수학교사가 교과교육자료를 수업에 적용할 때, 각 과제(task)의 cognitive demand의 수준이 어떻게 변화하는 지 분석하고 그 변화의 요인을 추정한 연구의 일부분이다. Mathematical Tasks Framework과 cognitive demand의 수준 (Stein & Henningsen, 1996)의 이론적 틀을 토대로, 미국 초등 수학교사의 수업을 관찰하고 인터뷰 자료를 수집, 분석하였다. 또한, 교사용 지도서와 교과서 등의 교과교육자료를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 교사의 수업과제의 cognitive demand 수준이 교과교육자료에서 제시한 수준과 다르게 나타났다.

It is an important issue to explore classroom environments which are conducive to developing students' mathematical performance. This study explores the effects of different classroom environments (solution-demand and corresponding-time setting) on mathematical performances. Fourteen and eighteen prospective teachers were required to prove a task under different conditions respectively: a) Cognitive demand of multiple-solution corresponding time of three hours, and b) Cognitive demand of a right solution corresponding time of 20 minutes. We used SOLO as the assessment tool for mathematical performance from quality perspective. Significant differences were found in the quantity and quality of mathematical performance. The regular environment focusing on speed and accuracy were found to be directly linked to low levels of performance. The findings above provide implications to the cognitive benefits of multiple-solution demand and corresponding time setting.

The purpose of this study was to examine and analyze the cognitive demand of the mathematical tasks suggested in the middle school textbooks. In particular, it aimed to reveal the overall picture of the level of cognitive demand of the mathematical tasks in the strand of geometry in the textbooks. We adopted the framework for mathematical task analysis suggested by Stein & Smith(1998) and analyzed the mathematical tasks accordingly. The findings from the analysis showed that 95 percent of the mathematical tasks were at high level and the rest at low level in terms of cognitive demand. Most of the mathematical tasks in the textbooks were algorithmic and focused on producing correct answers by using procedures. In particular, the high level tasks were presented at the end of each chapter or unit for wrap up rather than as key resources.

This pilot study explored the effect of mental demand on a Web searcher's thoughts, emotions, efforts, and performance in Web searches in order to address whether or not there is any difference between searchers exposed to mental demand manipulation and searchers not exposed. Research data were collected via think-aloud protocol (TAP) with a dual-task in experiments and interviews with 10 subjects who participated in this study. For the searcher's thoughts, relevance judgment was found to be hindered by mental demand. For the searcher's emotions, the experimental group was more frustrated than the control group. With respect to the searcher's efforts, searchers for the experimental group with mental demand manipulation were more likely to spend more time, make fewer queries, and visit fewer pages but work harder to find more relevant information that they needed. Lastly, with regard to the searcher's performance, it is likely that performance was highly dependent upon the completion of the search tasks for both groups. The NASA-TLX six components and cognitive load scores of searchers did not make a significant difference in the outcome. The findings support the use of a dual-task methodology as a promising approach for the assessment of cognitive load induced by complex Web searches.

교과서에서 제시된 수학과제, 특히 함수 영역에서의 그것이 학생들이 일상생활에서 일어나는 여러 가지 문제를 수학적으로 관찰, 분석, 조직, 사고하여 해결할 수 있게 하는 기회를 갖도록 하는지 알아보기 위하여 Smith & Stein (1998)이 제안한 수학 과제 분석틀에 따라 중학교 교과서의 함수 단원에 포함된 수학과제를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 중학교 교과서의 함수 단원에 거의 대부분의 수학과제가 Low Level인 것으로 나타났다. 학년별 구성을 보면 High Level 수학과제의 분포가 학년이 올라갈수록 줄어들고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 교과서에서 포함된 대부분의 수학과제가 알고리즘적이고 간단한 절차만을 이용해서 해결할 수 있는 방법으로 정답을 찾아내도록 유도하는 과제만 제시된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 대부분의 High Level 과제는 교과서 본론에 위치하여 전개상 내용의 주가 되는 것이 아니라 단원을 마무리하는 뒷부분 혹은 중간에 간혹 제시되는 특이사항 부분에 포함되는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 심화수학 교과서 과제의 인지적 노력수준에 대한 학생 인식을 분석함으로써 학생에게 주어진 학습기회의 실제 발현 여부를 살펴보는 것을 목표로 하였다. 이를 위해, 첫째, 이론적 틀에 기반 한 분석을 통해 심화수학 교과서 과제의 분포에 나타난 특징과 한계점을 살펴보았다. 둘째, 실제 심화수학 교과서를 사용하는 학생들이 교과서 과제의 인지적 노력수준 분포와 관련하여 인식하고 있는 특징과 한계점을 살펴보고, 교과서에 제공된 학습기회가 실제로 어떻게 발현되고 있는지 살펴보았다. 셋째, 심화수학 교과서가 과학고등학교 학생을 위한 교재라는 측면에서, 영재교육을 위한 학습기회가 제공되고 있는지 여부를 살펴보았다. 연구 결과, 심화수학 교과서에는 PNC 과제가 주로 제시되어 있었으며, 학생들 역시 PNC 과제의 해결경험이 많다고 인식하고 있었다. 또한, 영재교육을 위한 과제가 제공되지 않았으며, 학생들 역시 이에 대한 경험이 부족함을 인식하고 있었다.

Integration of multiple communication technologies in a smart grid (SG) enables employing cognitive radio (CR) technology for improving reliability and security with low latency by adaptively and effectively allocating spectral resources. The versatile features of the CR enable the smart meter to select either the unlicensed or the licensed band for transmitting data to the utility company, thus reducing communication outage. Demand response management is regarded as the control unit of the SG that balances the load by regulating the real-time price that benefits both the utility company and consumers. In this study, joint allocation of the transmission power to the smart meter and consumer's demand is formulated as a two stage multi-armed bandit game in which the players select their optimal strategies noncooperatively without having any prior information about the media. Furthermore, based on historical rewards of the player, a real-time pricing adaptation method is proposed. The latter is validated through numerical results.

The Korean mathematical curriculum has been changed three times during the resent five years. It led to changes in textbook system. In the 2007 revised mathematics curriculum, workbook was developed focusing on student's self-oriented learning, effective practice in differentiated classroom, and mathematics problem solving considering individual difference. This paper examines the characteristics of the tasks and the way the tasks are organized in the textbooks and the workbook in accordance with the 2007 revised mathematics curriculum; comparing with the function section before and after the amendment. Researchers examine whether the textbook and workbook were accomplished the purpose with "cognitive expectation", "level of cognitive demand", "and "response types". Researchers revised framework of [Son, J. W. & Senk, S. (2010). How reform curricula in the USA and Korea present multiplication and division of fraction. Educ. Stud. Math 74(2), 117-142] to make them suitable for the function section at the seventh grade.
