이 연구의 목적은 제 7차 교육과정의 초 중등학교에서 가르치는 생물 수업 목표 간의 연계성을 분석하는 것이다. 이 연구를 위해 각학년에서 7개의 중요한 영역인 세포, 식물의 형태와 기능, 동물의 형태와 기능, 유전, 생물의 다양성, 진화, 생태와 환경 영역을 분석하였다. 목표들 간의 관계를 나타내기 위해 수업 목표의 연계성 지도를 제시하였다. 이 연구 결과의 요약은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 세포에 대한 개념은 초등학교를 포함해서 저학년에서 충분히 다루어지지 않고 있다. 에너지 대사 개념이 반복적으로 다루어지고 있지만, 초등학교에서 에너지 대사 개념을 학습할 때 에너지 개념은 다루지 않았다. 둘째, 고등학교와는 달리 초등학교와 중학교의 교과서들이 식물의 형태와 기능에 관한 주요 개념들을 다루고 있다. 셋째, 유전과 진화와 같은 개념이 추상적인 개념이어서 중학교 이상인 고학년에서 다루어지고 있다. 생물의 다양성뿐만 아니라 유전과 진화가 학년간의 연계성이 없어서, 새로운 교육과정에서는 이러한 개념들 간의 연계가 필요하다. 넷째, 생물의 다양성, 생태와 환경, 진화 그리고 식물의 형태와 기능 영역이 일부 학년 수준에서만 제한적으로 다루어지고 있다. 초중고의 모든 학년을 통하여 수업 목표간의 연계성을 알아보는 수업 목표 간의 연계성 분석 결과는 교육과정과 교과서 개발을 위한 초기 자료로써 중요한 역할을 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to define teachers' learning motivation strategies and students' responses by analyzing science classes and interviews. The subjects were first grade and sixth grade teachers and students of an elementary school. The analysis tools are based on Keller's ARCS theory. The differences of teachers' motivation strategies were analyzed by grades and teachers' and students' backgrounds. The interviewers were composed of three teachers and three students of first grade, and three teachers and three students of sixth grade. The data were collected by recording of the classes using tape recorders, video cameras, and notebooks written by researchers. The results are as follows. First, teachers had their own styles of teaching strategies in their classes. Especially teachers' teaching backgrounds affected on the teachers' instructional strategies. The teachers who had long teaching experiences of lower grade students used to show a lot of attention strategies. While the teachers with long teaching experiences of higher grade students used to show few learning motivation strategies. Especially, sixth grade teachers used to show fewer confidence strategies than first grade teachers. Second, all of the teachers used to show few satisfaction strategies commonly in all the classes observed. Third, the students' recognition of the motivation strategies were not different according to their conceptions or activities of the classes. Commonly first grade students focused on the attention strategies, while sixth grade students focused on negative motivation strategies. Fourth, the teachers who believed that students need detail guidance and control recognized the needs of satisfaction strategies by students' autonomous activities after observing video tapes of other teachers' classes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effects of self-regulation abilities on the relationships between parental attachment, peer attachment, teacher attachment and children's happiness in elementary school students in higher grades. The subjects of this study were selected from 4th-6th grade students residing in Dae-gu and Kyung-buk using questionnaires from May 1st to July 1st in 2014. The statistical analysis program(SPSS) was used for analyzing the collected data from the research in correlation analysis. To examine the mediating effects of self-regulation abilities on the relationship between parental attachment, peer attachment and teacher attachment and children's happiness, the Baron and Kenny(1986) model was used.. The results are as follows. First, in the case of father attachment, mother attachment, peer attachment, and teacher attachment, self-regulation abilities and children's happiness, as perceived by higher grade elementary school children positive correlations were observed. Second, in terms of relative effects of father attachment, mother attachment, peer attachment and teacher attachment on children's happiness, mother attachment was observed to have the most effect on children's happiness. Third, self-regulation abilities, as perceived by the children, mediated the effect of father attachment, mother attachment, peer attachment, and teacher attachment amongst higher grade elementary school students and the subsequent affect on children's happiness.
