The purpose of this study is to develop SPA system using diagnostic and formative assessment in earth science classes in order to discuss its effect on learning achievement and self-directed learning attitude. For this purpose, we developed total management system, app for teachers, and app for students. This research was practiced to 76 students in 5th grade. The results are as follows. Firstly, the group taking a class used by app for diagnostic and formative assessment had an effect of improving learning achievement. However, as for learning achievement long term endurance test, the group taking a class using app for diagnostic and formative assessment had no effect. Secondly, the group taking a class using apps for diagnostic and formative assessment had an effect of improving learners' self-directed learning attitude. As for self-directed long-term endurance test, the group taking a class using app for diagnostic and formative assessment had an effect. In conclusion, I hope that this SPA system might apply to the science classes as it is a system that will satisfy the needs of both teachers and students, giving much needed feedback to students.

본 연구는 90명의 고등학생들(성취도 상 중 하 수준의 각 30명)을 대상으로 GAP 프로그램의 일환으로 개발된 10개의 문항으로 지구과학자에 대한 인식을 분석하였다. 고등학생들은 지구과학 교과에 대한 긍정적인 인식을 갖고 있으나, 직업인으로서 지구과학자에 대한 이해가 매우 부족하며, 자신의 진로로 연계하여 인식하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 성취 수준이 낮은 학생들의 지구과학 학습의 실패는 지구과학자에 대한 부정적인 인식과 미래 진로로의 비연계로 이어졌다. 학교교육 현장에서부터 학생들이 지구과학자를 접할 수 있는 기회를 제공하고 진로교육 프로그램을 통해 직업으로 연계시키려는 노력이 절실하게 필요하다.

The aim of this study was to find out the effect of instruction with storytelling on the achievement, attitude and interest in science. For this study, two classes were divided into experimental class and comparative class. All the results were analyzed quantitatively. Results of this study can be described as follows. First, the experimental class didn't have a significant difference in scholastic achievement compared with the comparative class. However, the results of the t-test for the academic achievement due to achievement level showed a positive effect in the average level of students. And experimental group was statistically significantly higher in the section of 'Combustion and Extinguishment' than that of the other group. Second, There was a significant difference in the aspect of the effect of instruction with storytelling on the student's science-related attitudes. As a result of analysis by sub categories of science-related attitudes, storytelling was effective in attitude toward science, but no significant differences were found in scientific attitude. Third, instruction with storytelling didn't show a meaningful difference in scientific interest. However, in the sub-part, they showed a meaningful improvement in attention and satisfaction.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of EarthComm implementation in the U.S. high schools in terms of demographic background including school size, urban/rural area, and teachers' teaching experiences. In addition, this study examined impact of students' higher-order thinking skills by using the visions of National Science Education Standards. Two modular of the EarthComm curriculum were used for this purpose with thirty one teachers and around thousand students involved across four states. Findings were that EarthComm did not significantly impact student achievement differentially in schools of varying sizes and school location, i.e., urban and rural areas. The years of teaching experiences did not impact student achievement scores for Module I but did significantly impact for Module II. It is noted that the two results seemingly conflict with each other similar to other research findings (Ferguson, 1998; Yager et al., 1988). Student higher-order thinking skills, on the other hand, were significantly improved as a result of studying with EarthComm. Implications were discussed at the end of the paper.

This study is aiming to determine the effect of learning dimensions oriented elementary science lecture on scientific attitude, academic achievement, and logical thinking based on 'Earth' section in the 2nd semester of the 5th grade. Analyzing sub-categories of dimension in each lecture before teaching, a teaching and a learning plans based on dimension 3 and 4 were devised and applied. The result of this study is as follows: Firstly, when sub-categories of Earth section in the 2nd semester of the 5th grade in elementary schools were examined, the unit '5-2-4. Volcanoes and Rocks' was missing 8 of total 28 sub-units, while '5-2-7. Solar families' unit was covering all sub-units of every learning dimension. Secondly, learning dimensions 3 and 4 centered elementary school teaching caused significant difference in scientific attitude. Especially, among other sub-categories of scientific attitudes, 'Social meaning of Science', 'Attitude toward Science lessons' were better improved. Thirdly, learning dimensions 3 and 4 based elementary school lectures didn't bring significant difference to academic achievement. Fourthly, learning dimensions 3 and 4 oriented elementary lessons didn't imply significant difference in sub-logics of logical thinking, however proved to be helpful for students of transitional age.

본 연구에서는 2003년도에 46개국에 참여한 TIMSS 2003 연구에서 지구과학 영역의 성취도를 주제별, 문항 유형별, 인지영역별로 분석하였다. 또한 문항 수준에서 국제평균과의 정답률 차이가 큰 문항과 남녀 정답률 차이가 큰 문항을 분석하였다. 우리나라 학생들은 모든 유형별로 국제평균보다 유의하게 높은 정답률을 나타내었고, 인지 영역별로는 우리나라 중학생들은 지구과학 영역에서 천문학 관련 주제 및 추론과 분석 영역에서 강세를 나타내었다. 우리나라의 정답률이 국제평균 정답률보다 낮게 나타난 5개 문항을 분석한 결과, 우리나라 중학생은 이해하고 있는 내용을 그림이나 도식으로 표현하는 데 미숙함을 알 수 있었다. 우리나라 여학생들은 사실적 지식을 묻는 선택형 문항에서 남학생들 보다 정확한 정보를 회상해 내는 데 어려움을 겪고 있으며, 학습하지 않은 내용에 대하여 어려워하는 경향이 남학생보다 크다는 것을 추정할 수 있다 연구 결과를 토대로 우리나라 교육과정의 지구과학 내용 구성과 교수학습 방법 개선에 대한 제언을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of higher grades in elementary the science process skill and Academic Achievement by IIM. To verify research problem, the subject of this study were five-grade students selected from One classes of an elementary school located in Ulsan : the experimental group is composed of thirty-four students who were participated in IIM teaching model situation. During six weeks, the IIM learning-based instruction was executed in th experimental group. Post-test showed following results: First, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in the science process skill. We look into detailly this, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in the basis science process skill. In particular, The sub-factor 'Observation', 'Measurement', 'expectation' of the science process skill effects a significant improvement. Second, the experimental group did showed a significant improvement in the Academic Achievement. In conclusion, IIM teaching model was more effective on science process skill and Academic Achievement. However, since the study has a limit on an objet of the study and the applied curriculum, the additional studies need to be conducted with an extended comparative group and curriculum.
