지금까지 H. Aebli, A. Fricke, R.W. Copeland, G. Steiner, E. Wittmann, R.R.Skemp, Z.P. Dienes등에 의해 Piaget이론의 수학교육적 연구가 상당한 정도로 이루어져 왔다. 그러나 Centre International D'epistemologie Genetique를 중심으로 한 집단사고와 방대한 연구결과를 집약한 소위 'Piaget이론'은 타에 그 종례를 찾아볼 수 없는 포괄적인 것인 바, 지금까지 이루어진 Piaget이론의 수학교육적 접근은 Piaget이론의 한정된 부분의 단편적인 응용에 불과하며, Piaget의 발생적 수학인식론 및 심리학의 중심원리와 연구결과를 반영한 보다 철저한 연구가 요망되고 있다. 본 고는 그 이론적 기초에 관한 연구의 일환으로 1969년에 출판된 Psychologie et pedagogie에 실린 'La didactique des mathematiques'와 1972년 ICMI의 제2차 수학교육국제회의에 기고한 논문 'Comments on mathematical education'에 나타난 수학교육에 대한 Piaget자신의 견해를 그의 수학인식론의 분석적 고찰을 통해 양세화하고, 그 실제적 구현방안을 제시해 본 것이다.

The Research works published in the field of Korean science education in relation to the theories of 'J. Piaget', 'D. P. Bruner' or 'J. S. Ausubel' have been analyzed and their general pattern of study were determined. Specifically, based on science education related articles published in several Korean journals, the pattern of research about the three scholars' theory is identified with the classification of the specific kind of journal, year of publication, key word, field of study, field of research, and grade of school. The journals subjected to the present study include 'Journal of the Korean Physical Society', 'Journal of the Korean Chemical Society', 'Journal of the Korean Biology Society', 'Journal of the Korean Earth Science Society', 'Journal of the Korean Association for Research in Science Education', and 'Journal of the Korean Society of Elementary Science Education'. It is determined from the present study as follows: First, the total number of related articles published in said journals is 97, and 'Journal of the Korean Association for Research in Science Education' ranks first in numbers. In terms of time period, it is found that most of the researches has been carried out during the mid 90s, and is still popular today. In addition, our key word search revealed that the 'cognitive development' by Piaget is most widely studied in the articles and biology is the area that has been most frequently studied. As to the field of research, teaching study was the one that has been most widely studied. Further, many articles have focused their studies on middle school. In conclusion, it is found that the Korean research works so far made for the theory of 'J. Piaget', 'D. P. Bruner' or 'J. S. Ausubel' are rather limited to a certain area and field, etc.

The aims of this research are two-folds; tomake an outline of 15 experiments conducted by J.Piaget and to make an analysis of Piagetian understandiug level on child's conception of Movement and Speed. The finding of this study are as follows; 1) The outline reveals that all of the experiments(15EA.) were constructed logically under the bases of Cognitive Development i.e. Succession order or placing (2EA.), Change of location (4EA.) Qualitative Speed(6EA.), and Quantification of Speed (3EA.) etc. 2) The analysis indicates that the concept on Movement and Speed which children develop go through generally from the stage (1B) of late preoperation to the stage(3A) oarly formal operation.

Is the development of linguistic competence due to the learning process or the maturational process? According to Piaget, its development is a genuine learning process involving authentic constructions with gradual disclosure of new possibilities. But According to Chomsky, the acquisition of linguistic competence is due to a genetically conditioned maturational process. So it merely involves the actualization of a set of possibilities existing from the beginning Consequently, Piaget supposes that interaction with the environment plays a shaping role, while Chomsky allows it to have a mere triggering role. In broad respective, Chomsky supposes the rationalism that knowledge is largely inborn, while Piaget in the constructivist position which strives to find a middle course between radical rationalism and radical empiricism. In the one hand, an ultra-rationalistic concept such as 'fixed nucleus' supposed by Chomsky is, in my eye, nor plausible. In the other hand, if Piagetian constructivism is to be sustained, it must be sustained independently of its dubious biological fundament, and merely as a developmental psychological theory. In one word, we need to synthesize Piagetian cognitive approach and Chomskian syntactical, in order to explain exactly the source of human linguistic competence.

In this article three types of neuro-biological epistemology have been studied and applied to mathematics. Nativism or innatism is favored by many evolutionary psychologists and some mathematicians. They believe domain specific brain functions or modules, particularly language faculty and number instinct in infants. Number/mathematical cognition is a new research area and scientists try to localize areas related with mathematics. Selectionism has adopted Darwinism to synapse growth and supports neuronal regression. Mathematical creativity can be explained using selectionism. Neural constructivism has originated from J. Piaget and supports neuronal/synapse growth in children or adults if adequate exercise and practise is given. Unlike Piaget, neural constructivists accepts the importance of structured experience for the reorganization of brain. Authors opinion is all these theories of epistemology is equally important and they all give insights on how the brain and self is made.

The aims of this study are to find the evel of the conception of 'Water Displacement', and to suggest some educational impications from the findings of the study. The result are as follows; Firstly, About 20% of 12 year children among the subjects of this study are aware of the conception of Water Displacement' which is lower than the finding of the study conducted by J. Piaget and Elkind. Secondarly. Most of the subjects in this study are in the transitional level, so this finding suggests that curricular developers should provide the material needed for the educational activities to make children develop the conception of 'Water Displacement'.

Christian communities have long sought to find what type of moral judgment is appropriate and what the Christian behavior is, by taking the church's ethical norms and behavior patterns as objects of reflection. In the same context, Christian education also tried to base the psychological rationalism of J. Piaget and L. Kohlberg, but the reason-centered structural development theory was not the answer. In fact, the structural development theory, which emphasized autonomy while excluding emotions from the moral judgment process, over-emphasizing cognition or reason, eventually led to moral relativism, unlike what was intended. In addition, it was criticized for not being able to adequately elucidate the gap between human moral reasoning and behavior, and for attempting to interpret morality excessively within the context of social culture. Recently, these limitations of structural developmental theory have been reinterpreted by neuroethics, especially moral psychology theories, which claim that moral judgment ability is physically wired in the brain and relies heavily on networks between cortical and limbic system. The purpose of this paper is to review some of the newly emerged research themes of neuroethics, and then to discuss two main theories that explain morality in the perspective of neuroethics and the implications that Christian education should pay attention to.

The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of Gifted Education Isnstitute of Korea (GEIK) programs for gifted children especially in the areas of reasoning skills and creativity, thereby proving the effectiveness of the program. The subjects are 136 (103 boys and 33 girls) fourth, fifth, and sixth grade gifted children, who have participated in GEIK programs for more than six moths. They were stratified by the length of participation in GEIK programs. Ninety four children have participated for more than one year. Forty-two children have participated for less than one year. Both groups are rather homogeneous in IQ scores and school achievement levels at the time of enterance into GEIK programs. Both a Group Assessment of Logical Thinking (GAIT) and a Creativity test were used for the study on reasoning skills and creativity. GALT, developed by V. Roadranka, R. H. Yeany and M. J. Padilla in 1983, consists of 12 questions. It is classified into six subscales: conservation, proportional reasoning, controlling variables, provability reasoning, correlational reasoning, and combinatorial reasoning. The reliability of this test is .85. This test recommends to classify the stages of child development as follows according to the total test score. 0-4 point: Concrete Stage, 5-7 points: Transitional Stage, and 8 and above points: Formal stage. The Creativity Test was developed by Y. Lee and W. Chung (1971). It consists of four components: fluency, flexibility, originality, and openness. Only both fluency and openness were used in this study. In order to analyze data, T-Test, Intercorrelational Analyses, ANOVA, and Nultiple Regression were used. Followings are the results deduced from the above analoyses of the data. First, 43.48% of the subjects were on Concrete Stage, 36.78% were on the Transitional Stage, and 19.86% were on the Formal Stage in the developmental level classified by Piaget. Second, the students who have participated in GEIK programs more than one year acquired significantly higher score in GALT than the students who have participated in GEIK programs less than one year. Third, boys showed higher score in GALT than girls did. Fourth, there were statistically significant intercorrelations between six subscales of GALT. Fifth, the students who have participated in GEIK programs more than one year acquired significantly higher score in openness of creativity test than the students who have participated in GEIK programs less than one year. There were no significant differences in openness of creativity test between boys and girls. Sixth, the students who have participated in GEIK programs more than one year acquired significantly higher score in fluency of creativity test than the students who have participated in GEIK programs less than one year. Girls showed higher score in fluency of creativity test than boys did. Seventh, the students who acquired higher score in GALT showed higher score in both openness and fluency of creativity test. Followings are the conclusions deduced form the above results. First, the developmental level of reasoning skills of the fourth grade students participationg in GEIK programs is the same as that of 7th grade of normal Korean students and the same as those of 10th grade of U.S.A. and Philipoine students. Second, the GEIK programs are effective in improving reasoning skills. Third, the GEIK programs are effective in improving creativity. Fouth, reasoning skills and creativity can be improved by well planned programs. In conclusion, this study suggests that beyond reasoning skills and creativity, other areas such as areas in science skills, mathmatical skills, or verbal skills, etc., should be studied in the future.
