  • 본 연구는 '기체가 공간을 차지하고 있음을 알아볼 수 있는 실험'이 2015 국정 과학 교과서와 검정 교과서에 제시된 특성을 비교하고, 실험의 타당도 검사 및 문제점을 파악하여 이를 개선하고, 그 효과성을 검증해보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 첫째, 국정 교과서와 검정 교과서 7종의 주요 준비물, 실험 방법, 제시된 사례를 분석한 결과 5개 교과서(71.4%)의 실험이 국정 교과서의 실험과 같거나 거의 유사하게 구성된 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 과학교과서의 다양성과 창의성을 확보하기 위해 다양한 종류의 교과서가 개발되었지만 대부분 기존에 제시되어 있던 실험을 그대로 제시하고 있었다. 둘째, 현행 실험의 경우 학생에게 다소 어려운 추론 능력을 요구하고 있고, 구체적이며 직관적인 관찰이 어렵다는 문제점이 있었다. 또한 초등학교 교사는 현행 실험의 타당도가 매우 낮다고 응답하였다. 셋째, 개선된 실험은 타당도가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 실험 집단의 경우 비교 집단과 비교하여 사후 검사에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나 개선된 실험이 학생들의 탐구능력 함양에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 개선된 실험은 컵 속의 물과 공기를 시각적으로 구분할 수 있고, 감각을 통해 현상을 직접 관찰할 수 있으며, 학생 수준에 적합한 활동으로 구성된 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 '기체가 공간을 차지하고 있음을 알아볼 수 있는 실험'을 직접 지도한 경험이 있는 초등학교 3학년 교사를 대상으로 의견수렴과 협의 과정을 통해 현행 실험의 문제점을 찾고, 개선된 실험을 개발하며, 그 효과를 검증하여 현재 개발되고 있는 2022 검정 과학과 교과서에 시사점을 주고자 하였다.

  • This study was performed to determine appropriate teaching-learning and evaluation methods for Environmental Studies. To promote the relevance of our study to the needs of the schools and concerned educational communities of environmental education, we reviewed related literature, conducted questionnaire surveys, interviewed related teachers and administrator, held meetings with experts, and field-tested our findings. For selecting and developing teaching-learning methods of Environmental Studies, findings of educational research in general are considered. moreover, principles of environmental education, general aim of environmental education, orientations of environmental education, and developmental stages of middle school students in educational psychology were attended. In addition, relevance to the purpose of the Environmental Studies curriculum, appropriateness for value inquiry as well as knowledge inquiry, small group centered class organization, social interaction centered teaching-learning process, regional environmental situation, significance of personal environment, evaluation methods of Environmental Studies, multi- and inter-disciplinary contents of the Environmental Studies textbook, suitability to the evaluation methods of Environmental Studies, and emphasis on the social interaction in teaching-learning process were regarded. It was learned the Environmental Studies can be taught most effectively in via of holding discussion sessions, conducting actual investigation, doing experiment-practice, doing games and plate, role-playing and carrying out simulation activities, and doing inquiry. These teaching-learning methods were field-tested and proved appropriate methods for the subject. For selecting and developing evaluation method of Environmental Studies, such principles and characteristics of Environmental Studies as objective domains stated in the Environmental Studies curriculum, diversity of teaching-learning organization, were appreciated. We categorized nine evaluation methods: the teacher may conduct questionnaire surveys, testings, interviews, non-participatory observations; they may evaluate student's experiment-practice performances, reports preparation ability, ability to establish a research project, the teacher may ask the students to conduct a self-evaluation, or reciprocal evaluation. To maximize the effect of these methods, we further developed an application system. It considered three variables, that is, evaluates, evaluation objectives domains, and evaluation agent, and showed how to choose the most appropriate methods and, when necessary, how to combine uses of different methods depending on these variables. A sample evaluation instrument made on the basis of this application system was developed and tested in the classes. The system proved effective. Pilot applications of the teaching-learning methods and evaluation method were made simultaneously; and the results and their implications are as follows. Discussion program was applied in a lesson dealing with the problems of waste disposal, in which students showed active participation and creative thinking. The evaluation method used in this lesson was a multiple-choice written test for knowledge and skills. It was shown that this evaluation method and device are effective in helping students' revision of the lesson and in stimulating their creative interpretations and responces. Pupils showed great interests in the actual investigation program, and this programme was proved to be effective in enhancing students' participation. However, it was also turned out that there must be pre-arranged plans for the objects, contents and procedures of survey if this program is to effective. In this lesson, non-participatory observation methods were used with a focus on the attitudes of students. A scaled reported in general description rather than in grade. Experiment-practice programme was adopted in a lesson for purifying contaminated water and in this lesson, instruction objectives were properly established, the teaching-learning process was clearly specified and students were highly motivated. On the other hand, however, it was difficult to control the class when some groups of students require more times to complete their experiment, and sometimes different results. As regards to evaluation, performance observation test were used for assessing skills and attitudes. If teachers use well-prepared Likert scale, evaluation of all groups within a reasonablely short period of time will be possible. The most effective and successful programme in therms of students' participation and enjoyment, was the 'ah-nah-bah-dah-market' program, which is kind of game of the flea market. For better organized program of this kind, however, are essential, In this program, students appraise their own attitudes and behavior by responding to a written questionnaire. In addition, students were asked to record any anecdotes relating to self-appraisal of changes on one's own attitudes and behaviours. Even after the lesson, students keep recording those changes on letters to herself. Role-playing and simulation game programme was applied to a case of 'NIMBY', in which students should decide where to located a refuse dumping ground. For this kind of programme to e successful, concepts and words used in the script should be appropriate for students' intellectual levels, and students should by adequately introduced into the objective and the procedures of the lessons. Written questionnaire was used to assess individual students' attitudes after the lesson, but in order to acquire information on the changes of students' attitudes and skills, pre-test may have to be made. Doing inquiry programme, in which advantages in which students actually investigated the environmental influence of the areas where school os located, had advantages in developing students' ability to study the environmental problems and to present the results of their studies. For this programme to be more efficient, areas of investigation should be clearly divided and alloted to each group so that repetition or overlap in areas of study and presentation be avoided, and complementary wok between groups bee enhanced. In this programme, teacher assessed students' knowledge and attitudes on the basis of reports prepared by each group. However, there were found some difficults in assessing students' attitudes and behaviours solely on the grounds of written report. Perhaps, using a scaled checklist assessing students' attitudes while their presentation could help to relieve the difficulties.

  • An International Cooperative Biodiversity Group (ICBG) program based at the University of Illinois at Chicago initiated its activities in 1998, with the following specific objectives: (a) inventory and conservation of of plants of Cuc Phuong National Park in Vietnam and of medicinal plants of Laos; (b) drug discovery (and development) based on plants of Vietnam and Laos; and (c) economic development of communities participating in the ICBG project both in Vietnam and Laos. Member-institutions and an industrial partner of this ICBG are bound by a Memorandum of Agreement that recognizes property and intellectual property rights, prior informed consent for access to genetic resources and to indigenous knowledge, the sharing of benefits that may arise from the drug discovery effort, and the provision of short-term and long-term benefits to host country institutions and communities. The drug discovery effort is targeted to the search for agents for therapies against malaria (antimalarial assay of plant extracts, using Plasmodium falciparum clones), AIDS (anti-HIV-l activity using HOG.R5 reporter cell line (through transactivation of the green fluorescent protein/GFP gene), cancer (screening of plant extracts in 6 human tumor cell lines - KB, Col-2, LU-l, LNCaP, HUVEC, hTert-RPEl), tuberculosis (screening of extracts in the microplate Alamar Blue assay against Mycobacterium tuberculosis $H_{37}Ra\;and\;H_{37}Rv),$ all performed at UIC, and CNS-related diseases (with special focus on Alzheimer's disease, pain and rheumatoid arthritis, and asthma), peformed at Glaxo Smith Kline (UK). Source plants were selected based on two approaches: biodiversity-based (plants of Cuc Phuong National Park) and ethnobotany-based (medicinal plants of Cuc Phuong National Park in Vietnam and medicinal plants of Laos). At mc, as of July, 2001, active leads had been identified in the anti-HIV, anticancer, antimalarial, and anti- TB assay, after the screening of more than 800 extracts. At least 25 biologically active compounds have been isolated, 13 of which are new with anti-HIV activity, and 3 also new with antimalarial activity. At GSK of 21 plant samples with a history of use to treat CNS-related diseases tested to date, a number showed activity against one or more of the CNS assay targets used, but no new compounds have been isolated. The results of the drug discovery effort to date indicate that tropical plant diversity of Vietnam and Laos unquestionably harbors biologically active chemical entities, which, through further research, may eventually yield candidates for drug development. Although the substantial monetary benefit of the drug discovery process (royalties) is a long way off, the UIC ICBG program provides direct and real-term benefits to host country institutions and communities.

  • 최근 한국은 농촌관광의 수요가 증가하고 있지만 유형은 농사체험이 대부분이다. 이러한 상황을 극복하기 위해 생태체험이 도입되고 있다. 농촌 생태체험의 공간인 연못의 콘텐츠, 교육자료 확보가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 연못형습지 식물의 전통한방이용형태를 분석하였다. 전통한방은 과거부터 이어져 온 전통지식으로 요즘에도 의학, 약학, 과학 등 다양한 분야에서 활용한다. 분석된 내용은 생태체험 교육자료에 도움이 될 것이다. 조사는 농촌지역 연못형습지 40개소의 식물을 조사하였다. 전통한방이용형태는 특허청에서 운영하는 전통지식포탈의 내용을 제공받아 사용하였다. 40개 연못형습지에서 조사된 식물은 총 108과 457종이며, 그 중 전통한방이용형태에 대한 정보가 있는 종은 53과 314종이다. 이것은 연못형습지 주변의 식물 중 68.8%가 전통한방을 함유하고 있다는 의미다. 이 밖에도 음식, 공예, 전통농업 등의 활용 형태를 포함한다면 70~80% 이상 전통지식을 포함할 것이라 예상한다. 전통한방에 사용 된 314종의 효능은 570가지, 325가지의 병증을 치료하는 효과가 있다. 1종당 평균 4.0(0~20)가지의 효능으로 6.6(0~20)가지의 병증을 치료할 수 있다. 본 연구 자료는 체험, 교육, 의학 등 다양한 분야에 활용되길 기대한다. 그리고 많은 가치가 있는 연못형습지는 계속적으로 보전할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

  • 노주(老洲) 오희상(吳熙常)(1763-1833)은 18세기 후반기부터 19세기 전반에 걸쳐 홍직필(洪直弼)과 더불어 당시 기호 낙론을 대표하는 산림학자이다. 그는 율곡(栗谷)으로부터 비롯되는 기호학파의 학설을 충실히 계승하는 한편, 김창협(金昌協)으로부터 연원하는 낙학의 이론적 입장을 보다 명확히 하면서 낙론의 종지를 확고히 하였다. 호락논쟁의 연장선상에서 호론(湖論)에 대한 비판적 견해를 제시하는 것은 물론, 18세기 중반 이후 낙론 내부에서 제기된 이설(異說)에 대해 비판적 견해를 제시하며 낙론의 학문적 입장을 굳건히 하고자 하였다. 본고에서는 오희상의 성리설을 사상사적인 맥락을 중심으로 그 내용과 위상을 확인하고, 그의 학문 활동이 주로 호락논쟁의 연장선상에서 놓여 있었던 만큼 그의 호론에 대한 비판적 견해에 유의하면서 그의 성리설 체계를 고찰하였다. 그가 가졌던 문제의식의 중심에는 인간 도덕성 실현을 위한 현실적 근거의 체계화가 자리하고 있다. 인간의 순선한 도덕성의 실재성과 이의 구체적인 실천을 정초하기 위해 세계 구성과 도덕의 실천을 리기론적으로 해명하고자 하였다. 그는 특히 도덕 실천의 근거로서 리의 순선성과 실재성을 확인하고, 그것의 현실적 실현을 위한 주체의 정초를 위해 리기 관계의 상함성에 주목하였다. 그가 심성에 대한 리기론적 이해를 통해 심성의 논리적 관계와 가치적 측면에 대한 해명을 제시한 것은 순선한 도덕성의 현실적 기반 구축과 이것의 실현, 즉 수양의 체계를 수립하는 데로 이어졌다. 따라서 오희상의 논의는 적어도 원리적 차원에서 만큼은 순선한 도덕성의 실재성과 본선한 도덕 주체의 확립을 이끌어 내고자 하는 방향이었으며, 현실적 측면에서도 이를 담보하고자 하는 방향으로 나갔다고 평가할 수 있다.
