We analyzed and compared factors such as changes in the degree of difficulty of concepts presented in Chemistry I textbook, changes in class types (non-face-to-face, face-to-face), etc. on academic achievement by level (upper, middle, and lower). Students from A high school in Gyeongsangnam-do were selected for the subjects of the study. As a result of analyzing the change in the degree of difficulty of concepts, the total score of chemistry I combined by non-face-to-face and face-to-face classes during the second semester was lower than that of the first semester. As a result of analyzing the impact of factors such as changes in conceptual difficulty, changes in class types, etc. on academic achievement by level, students' grades at the 'lower level' by non-face-to-face classes were lower than those by face-to-face classes. In particular, at the lower level of the second semester, there was a large difference in grades between non-face-to-face and face-to-face classes. In the results of these studies, it was found that instructors' active feedback is important to identify difficulties in understanding learning contents for students with low levels of academic achievement and improve them at the same time.

본 논문에서는 난이도를 고려하여 선택형 문항을 자동으로 생성하는 방법을 고안하였으며, 학습자 수준에 적합하도록 동적인 형태로 다양한 문항 제시를 할 수 있는 시스템을 구현하였다. 선택형 문제를 통한 평가에서는 적절한 규모의 문제 은행이 필요하다. 이와 같은 요구를 만족시키기 위해서는 보다 쉽고 빠른 방식으로 다양하고 많은 문제 및 문항을 생성할 수 있는 시스템이 필요한데, 본 논문에서는 문제 및 문항의 생성을 위하여 워드넷이라는 언어 자원을 이용한 자동 생성 방법을 고안하였다. 자동 생성을 위해서는 주어진 문장에서 형태소 분석을 통해 키워드를 추출하고, 각 키워드마다 워드넷의 계층적 특성에 따라 유사한 의미를 가진 후보 단어를 제시한다. 의미 유사 후보 단어를 제시할 때, 기존의 한국어 워드넷의 스키마를 개념간 의미 유사도 행렬을 구할 수 있는 형태의 스키마로 변경한다. 단어의 의미 유사도는 동의어를 의미하는 수준 0에서 거의 유사도가 없다고 볼 수 있는 수준 9까지 다양하게 제시될 수 있으며, 생성될 문항에 어느 정도의 유사도를 가진 어휘를 포함시키느냐에 따라서 출제자의 의도에 따른 난이도의 조정이 가능하다. 후보 어휘들의 의미 유사도 측정을 위해서, 본 논문에서는 두 가지 방법을 사용하여 구현하였다. 첫째는 단순히 두 어휘의 워드넷 상에서의 거리만을 고려한 것이고 둘째는 두 어휘가 포함되어 있는 트리 구조의 크기까지 추가적으로 고려한 것이다. 이러한 방법을 통하여 실제 출제자가 기존에 출제된 문제를 토대로 더 다양한 내용과 난이도를 가진 문제 또는 문항을 더 쉽게 출제할 수 있는 시스템을 개발할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 초등학생들이 수 개념과 관련하여 수직선을 어떻게 이해하고 사용하는지, 또 그 학습의 어려움은 무엇인지 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 수직선 은유가 수 개념과 어떻게 관련되는지 살펴보았고, 프로이덴탈의 수 개념지도론에서 수직선의 역할에 대하여 고찰하였다. 실제 초등학생들의 수직선에 대한 이해와 사용의 어려움을 파악하기 위해 실시한 검사는 수직선에 주어진 위치에서 적절한 수를 대응시키는 문항과 학년별로 수직선이 활용되는 관련 단원 내용을 묻는 문항으로 이루어졌다. 같은 내용과 구조의 문항이지만 수직선으로 표현된 것은 해결하지 못하면서 수 트랙이나 다른 그림으로 표현된 것은 해결하는 학생들이 다수 관찰되었고, 본 연구에서는 이러한 현상의 의미를 해석하고자 하였다. 또한 다양한 교수-학습 자료(수 트랙, 그림, 빈 수직선, 이중 수직선등)를 활용하여 수직선 이해의 어려움을 보완하고 관련 수 개념 학습을 돕는 방안을 제안하였다.

초등수학교육에서 처음 시작되는 사칙연산은 학교수학에서 매우 중요하다. 이 사칙연산에 대한 학습내용과 그에 대한 학생들의 학습결과를 알아보았다. 학습결과에 대한 신뢰도를 높이기 위해 교과서의 단원별 평가 문항에 나타난 결과를 조사하고 분석하였다. 이 자료를 바탕으로 단원별 평가문항에 대한 곤란도와 곤란도가 낮은 문항의 학습내용을 구체적으로 분석하였다. 분석결과는 초등학교에서 연산영역의 학습내용에 대하여 대부분의 학생들은 잘 이해하나 곱셈과 나눗셈에 대한 정확한 개념과 관계 그리고 체계적인 나눗셈의 원리지도와 문장제에 대한 더 많은 지도가 필요함을 보였다. 또 교과서의 학습내용에 대한 곤란도의 기준은 교과의 특성과 학생들의 수준 그리고 지역에 따라 다양하게 제시하는 것이 바람직하게 생각되었다.

The purpose of this article is to introduce a useful methodology of effective goal-setting for the team-level units. As a way to overcome some common symptoms in terms of Strategic Performance Evaluation System such as lack of knowledge on goal-setting, disconnection of process, problem of judging the degree of difficulty about objectives, limits of staff departments evaluation, fairness and authority of evaluators, weakness in coaching technique, and quantity or figure-oriented evaluation, to name a few, and to seek a more plausible goal-setting methodology, the author suggests a persuasive goal-setting concept: VAR(Value-Added Results). VAR, as the end-results, is the team contributions that add value to the organization, and it results from the team's activities. In addition to these goal-setting technique based on the concept of value-added results, several aspects should be improved for Strategic Performance Evaluation System to be implemented more effectively. They are: 1) shift from MBO to MP & D(Managing Performance & Development), 2) impartial exercise of evaluation authority as a organizational public assets, 3) reinforcement of maternal leadership and servantship instead of paternal leadership, 4) utilization of IT-based evaluation system.

The purpose of this study was to analyze students' physics problem solving processes and to find the patterns of their problem spaces when high school and university students solved the physics problems. A total of 51 students in a high school and in two universities participated in this study. Their thinking processes in solving 5 physics problems on electric circuit were recorded by using 'thinking aloud' method and were transferal into protocols. 'The protocols were analyzed by the coding system of problem solving process. One of the major theoretical contributions of the computer simulation approach to problem solving is the idea of problem space. Such a concept of problem space was applied to physics problems on electric circuit in this study, and students' protocols were analyzed by the basic problem spaces which were made up from the item analysis by the researcher. The results are as follows: 1) On the average 4.0 test items among 5 ones were solved successfully by all subjects, and all of the items were solved correctly by only 19 persons among all of them. 2) In regard to the general steps of problem solving process, there was little difference for each item between the good solvers and the poor ones. But according to the degree of difficulty of task there was a good deal of difference. For a complex problem all of 4 steps were used by most of students, but for a simple one only 3 steps except evaluating step were used by most of them. 3) It was found in this study that most of students used mainly the microscopic approach, that is, a method of applying Ohm's law on electric circuit simply and immediately, not using the properties of electric circuits. And also it was observed that most of students used the soloing tom below, that is, a solving path in which they were the first to calculate physical Quantities of circuit elements, before they caught hold of the meaning of the given problem regardless of the degree of difficulty.

The International Olympiad on Astronomy and Astrophysics (IOAA) initiated by the Thailand Astronomical Society in 2007 is an annual competition for high school students. One of its aim is to enhance the development of international exchange in the field of school education in astronomy and astrophysics. This paper first provides the overview of the IOAA in terms of key regulations based on its statutes, history and current status. Secondly, the published syllabus of the IOAA is used for content analysis according to subject areas regarding the exam questions of the IOAA in theoretical, observational and data analysis parts from 2007 to 2010. Also, a scientific inquiry framework is applied to the same questions for assessment based on scientific inquiry in the cognitive aspect with two sub-classes of scientific knowledge and scientific reasoning. Among a dozen astronomy subject areas listed on the syllabus, the theoretical part of the IOAA makes more frequent use of the Sun, the solar system, properties of stars, and concept of time. In content knowledge, a factor of scientific knowledge, the IOAA questions, especially in the theoretical part have a lesser degree in difficulty than the IAO (International Astronomy Olympiad) exam questions for the same period whose degree in difficulty is comparable to college level. With regard to scientific reasoning, the IOAA questions tend to involve convergent rather than divergent thinking. Lastly, in light of these findings, discussions are given on the outcome of Korean participation in the previous IOAAs and ways to help better in preparing Korean students for future astronomy Olympiads.

Most real world design evaluation and risk-based decision support combine quantitative and qualitative (linguistic) variables. Decision-making based on conventional mathematics that combines qualitative and quantitative concepts always exhibit difficulty in modelling actual problems. The successful selection process for choosing a design/procurement proposal is based on a high degree of technical integrity, safety levels and low costs in construction, corrective measures, maintenance, operation, inspection and preventive measures. However, the objectives of maximising the degree of technical performance, maximising the safety levels and minimising the costs incurred are usually in conflict, and the evaluation of the technical performance, safety and costs is always associated with uncertainties, especially for a novel system at the initial concept design stage. In this paper, a design-decision support framework using a composite structure methodology grounded in approximate reasoning approach and evidential reasoning method is suggested for design evaluation of machinery space of a ship engine room at the initial stages. It is a Multiple Attribute Decision-Making (MADM) or Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) framework, which provides a juxtaposition of cost, safety and technical performance of a system during evaluation to assist decision makers in selecting the winning design/procurement proposal that best satisfies the requirement in hand. An illustrative example is used to demonstrate the application of the proposed framework.

One of the reasons students have difficulty in studying probability is that they do not understand the meaning of mathematical terms precisely. One such term is a continuous random variable. Students tend not to think of the accurate definition of continuous random variables but to understand the definition of continuity of functions and the meaning of continuity in probability as equal. In this study, we try to explore the degree of pre-service teachers' understanding on the concept of continuation of functions and continuous random variables. To do this, the questionnaire items related to continuous random variables and continuity of functions were developed by experts and examined by pre-service teachers. Based on this, we make suggestions on implications for teaching and learning about continuous random variables.

CWSII method was developed to overcome the problems of frequent occurrence in the application of existing downward construction methods, especially in the case of using slurry wall instead of SCW or CIP as a retaining wall. By the improvements in connecting steel beams with the wall, CWSII method is able to ensure the settlement of a steel beam and the diaphragm effect of a slab while reducing the degree of difficulty and the term of works and the cost of construction. As the desired results, CWS method can be applied as a practical downward construction method regardless of the type of retaining wall. In this paper, besides the concept and features of CWSII method, it can be seen that the method can provide reliable and economical performances by comparing with existing methods.
