최근 우리 사회는 양극화 현상에 의해 빈부격차가 점점 심해지고 있으며, 가정간의 소득격차의 심화로 인해 빈곤 아동 문제가 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있다. 저소득층 아동은 가정해체와 부모의 가출, 경제적 어려움 등 부정적인 생활사건을 많이 경험하게 되어 불안, 공격, 위축 등의 행동 문제가 나타나며, 자존감이 낮아지고 학업성취도가 떨어지는 등 여러 문제들이 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 교구 로봇 활용을 통한 아동복지센터 아이들의 사전 사후 변화를 비교 분석해 보았으며 그 결과 창의성뿐만 아니라 행동문제 개선에 유의미한 효과를 주는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to improve the dietary attitudes and habits of elementary students in lower classes through a 12-week practical nutrition education program called KHIDIKIDS, which was developed by Korea Health Industry Development Institute (KHIDI) in 2004 based on the 2003 Children's Dietary Guidelines of the Ministry of Health and Welfare of Korea. KHIDIKIDS has never been applied in the field, therefore, another purpose of this study was to evaluate the program in the school education and suggest the ideas for the improvement. KHIDIKIDS was applied to a class of 2nd-grade elementary students consisting of 28 children in Seoul during the fall semester of 2005, and the effect of the program was measured by using questionnaires for the students and their parents. The statistical analysis of the study was conducted by using SPSS WIN 11.5 program, and the results were as follows: The children's knowledge on nutrition was improved significantly by KHIDIKIDS education (p<.001), such that the average score on nutritional knowledge increased from 8.32 to 9.64 after education. This practical nutrition education program also improved the dietary attitudes and habits of children especially in healthy body weight, daily exercise, and having breakfast (p<.05). Parents also showed very positive responses for the nutrition education. During the application of KHIDIKIDS in the field, the followings were indicated for adjustment, First, some education content of the week was too much to be finished in a class hour and more hours need to be allocated. Second, some terminology need to be adjusted to help the students understand easily. Thirdl, the order of the's Basic Food Groups' needs to be matched with the order of each food group in the 'Food Tower' not to make children be confused. Above results showed that KHIDIKIDS was effective for the improvement of dietary attitudes and habits of lower elementary students. However, further educational effects would be achieved when the education was started from the 1st to higher grades along with the parents' participation.

This study investigates faculty support for quality assurance in online education, and offers suggestions for its improvement based on feedback from Instructional Design (ID) staff working at a public university in the U.S. Qualitative research using semi-structured interviews was conducted with seven ID staff in order to examine their perceptions regarding faculty support related to quality assurance in online education. The results of the data analysis indicate that four types of faculty support-quality assurance reviews using Quality Matter (QM) standards, templates, individual consultations with ongoing support, and monitoring-were offered for faculty. Faculty support for quality assurance in online education could be improved by developing specific quality assurance standards, recruiting external experts, examining learning effects, developing a quality assurance management system, and sharing documents among ID staff. This study highlights the necessity of quality assurance in online education and provides cases of faculty support in a real higher education setting.

이 연구의 목적은 창의력 향상을 목표로 문제중심학습(PBL)에 기초하여 체계적이고 효과적인 로봇교육 프로그램을 개발하는 것이며, 또한, 개발된 로봇교육 프로그램이 학생들의 창의력 향상에 효과적인가를 분석하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 과학고등학교에서 활용할 수 있는 로봇교육 프로그램 22차시를 개발하여 적용하였다. 적용 결과로 8개 팀이 자기 주도적으로 창의적 로봇을 제작할 능력을 갖추게 되었다. 또한, 로봇교육 프로그램의 적용 결과에 따른 창의력 향상 정도를 성별, 학업성취도에 따라 분석을 하였다. TTCT 창의력 검사 결과 창의력 향상에 유의한 효과가 있음이 나타났으며 특히, 창의력 하위 요소인 독창성의 향상에 큰 효과가 있음을 밝힐 수 있었다. 이 연구의 적용에서 성별간의 창의력 향상에 유의한 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 학업성취도에 따른 창의력 향상의 차이는 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 학업성취도가 ‘하’영역 학생의 창의력 향상이 두드러지게 나타났다. 또한, 이 로봇교육 프로그램은 공과대학 소개 프로그램으로도 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Urban sprawl has been the limits of traffic accommodate and the supply road. Thus, Light Rail Transit(LRT) has been proposed as the best alternative. Owing to landscape damage from construction of LRT, landscape planning should be considered seriously in the urban planning step. This paper therefore seeks to determine landscape improvement direction of LRT pier. First, the methods in this study shared landscape improvement direction type of LRT pier through previous studies such as planting of surface(30%, 60%, 90% planting of surface), graphic(character, commercial advertising, symbol), and surface treatment type(exposed concrete, white painting, pattern dies). Next, respondent evaluated 3D simulated landscape image accordingly shared types by preference and landscape adjectives using in streetscape evaluation. As a result, visual preference was the highest in planting type of surface and the lowest in the surface treatment type. Covering 60%(4.48) in planting type of surface was the highest. Because it is similar to the golden ratio considering the visual principle, we will need to take advantage through the result of this paper. Also, most landscape improvement direction which satisfied with significant level showed a positive effect from landscape improvement. Comprehensively based on these results, it suggests desirable landscape improvement direction of LRT pier in the city for solution of landscape inhibition problem.

The purpose of this study is to investigate teachers' recognition and to suggest an improvement in the system of teacher's observation and nomination used to selecting gifted and talented students in Science in the Busan Metropolitan School District in 2013 by investigating teachers' recognition of the system and their expressed needs. The results are as follows. First, it was observed that teachers are of the opinion that it is difficult to determine the science gifted students by observation due to their lack of expertise in giftedness and gifted education, the lack of a check list to use, and the difficulty of ensuring the objectivity of the results of the determination. Second, the absence of objective screening tools used for the selection, the selection of gifted students based on their subjective judgment, and the possibility to select students based only on visible manifestations of ability may cause parents to mistrust the system. Thus, institutional support is required to address the concerns of teachers and parents. Third, the teachers who are in charge of observation, nomination, selection and determination need to be trained. After that, at least one of these teachers should be assigned in each school and training should operate continuously and systematically. Lastly, while these things are occurring, the process of observation and nomination of by teachers, which is the basis of pooling gifted students at the level of Busan Metropolitan School District, should be continued.
