From 1860s to 1910s, Rayleigh's efforts to reveal the nature and various features of sound continued to achieve good success in theory and experiment. Although his concern with acoustics primarily originated from intellectual curiosity, he did not ignore its practicality. His efforts were made to develop public lectures with demonstration experiments during his professorship at the Royal Institution of Great Britain. Acoustics covered the second-most frequent subject in his public lectures and his acoustical experiments were designed for satisfying the needs of the audience by employing ingenious strategies.

This study investigated behavior characteristics for the gifted(N=210) and the high achievers(N=1l5). The participations in this study were 200 teachers who rated their 325 students' behavior characteristics in 25 public elementary schools in U.S.A rating of behavior characteristics in learning style, motivation, creativity, and leaderships by teachers indicated differences in keen observation, rapid insight into cause-effect relationship, a large storehouse of information, language fluency, absorption/task persistent, preference for own learning activities, concerns for moral/ethical issues, and a diversity of interests between groups. No differences in understanding of underlying principles, organization, curiosity, creativeness, motivation, initiating activities in areas of personal interest, directing group activities, and intellectual playfulness/imagination were found in addition to some differences between two groups.

Learning agility as high potentials is drawing attention as a competency for leading an uncertain future society. The present study aims to determine the factors of learning agility in higher education context for future society. To address this goal, Major factors related to learning agility were derived through literature review and statistically verified. For statistical analysis, the nationwide data were collected from 1,000 undergraduate students in South Korea by National Youth Policy Institute. The participants asked to answer 29 items of learning agility questionnaires (LAQ). The collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis. As a result, learning agility items were verified normality and reliability. Learning agility was identified seven factors; challenging mind, learning responsibility, reflecting experience, intellectual curiosity, systemic thinking, change adaptability, and logical thinking. Also, the structural model fit of the seven factors of learning agility was also confirmed to be good. Based on the findings of the present study, empirical, theoretical, and practical contributions were presented, and suggestions for further research were proposed in detail.

Recently, the government as part of the creation of science for science education policies promoting the activation of the Science Museum. However the lack of infrastructure, budget and human resources are a reality that a lot of difficulties. In past, A field trip of Science Museum was a place of curiosity of youth. However, modern Science Museum has to competition with the online games and theme park in order to achieve the two goals of scientific experience and education, which it needs change display device is required. Looking at the cases of advanced foreign Science Museum is not merely a head of science education experience as a cultural space, provide relaxation and entertainment, and life science area in addition to a variety of genres such as art and fashion exhibits are planning to combine. In this study, the current uniform description panel of exhibition device described in the written text replaced with the digilog book with the age and grade of the visitors by providing a tailored service for scientific knowledge and intellectual curiosity induced measures can claim the satisfaction of visitors is proposed.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effects of critical thinking and good communication skills on the problem-solving abilities of dental hygiene students. Methods: A total of 508 dental hygiene students were convenience-sampled from 3 universities. Results: The results revealed that critical thinking had the highest intellectual fairness score of 3.60, and systematicity was the lowest at 3.19. The values for communication skills were high in reaction, social adequacy, and concentration, with an average of 3.65. Problem-solving abilities were in the following order: clarification of the problem, seeking solutions, and decision making. According to general characteristics, more extroverted personalities possessed higher levels of critical thinking, communication skills, and problem-solving abilities (p<0.01). Critical thinking scores were high (p=0.016) in students who responded that peer relationship was difficult; however, their communication skills were the lowest (p<0.001). Additionally, problem-solving abilities were highest among students who reported a difficult peer relationship (p=0.001). The higher the satisfaction with dental hygiene academics, the higher the critical thinking, communication skill, and problem-solving ability (p<0.001). Critical thinking showed a high positive correlation with variables in the following order: clarification of the problem, performing the solutions, seeking solutions, decision making, and evaluation and reflection. The communication skills were also related to these variables listed above (p<0.01). With critical thinking, confidence, watchfulness, intellectual passion/curiosity, sound skepticism, objectivity, and systematicity all influenced the problem-solving ability. Conclusion: Communication skills were influenced by noise control, putting on the other's shoe, social tensions, and efficiency, which affected the problem-solving ability. Dental clinics require dental hygienists to have critical thinking to make analytical judgments and effective communication skills to solve human relation problems with patients and care-givers. Therefore, these skills should be developed in dental hygiene students to improve their problem-solving abilities.

Today the high school mathematics lesson has an effect on the scholastic achievement internationally, but fails to lead to the interest in the mathematics which stimulates the intellectual curiosity. Due to this, 2015 revised curriculum includes the effort to improve the emotional aspect of mathematics positively. It is needed that the teaching method through discussion and debate must be introduced to accomplish the objective of the mathematics in 2015 revised curriculum focused on the improvement of the ability and attitude to solve the problems creatively by increasing the mathematical communication skill of the students. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of mathematical essay-typed lesson focused on discussion and debate on the mathematical disposition and attitude of high school student. The findings from this study provided that the essay-typed lessons focused on discussion and debate improved the subject students' mathematical achievement and disposition and attitude, but it is not significant change.

The library means to children a place where they find information necessary for them among a variety of knowledge and information to address their intellectual curiosity, which makes their lives wise and mature. There are not enough research materials understanding children's cognitive systems and behaviors in studies of a children's library with this necessity. This study divided and analyzed the behaviors of children, who were users into three types of reading in terms of information processing. First, it observed the types of reading depending on the stage of their cognitive development; Second, it analyzed the patterns of their behaviors through plays; and lastly, it presented the phases of their behaviors depending on the degree of an assistant's intervention. As a result of the study, the sensory system used and the space preferred differed depending on the stage of their cognition; there were differences in the patterns of their behaviors in each age group depending on the type of play; and there were differences in the children's ability of information processing depending on the assistant's ability. It is anticipated that there will be improvements of children's reading ability at the reading room in a better environment if the three types are considered in terms of information processing.
