Though science and technology are evolving rapidly in recent years, the traditional science education has limits for students to be satisfied their interests and needs because they couldn't follow these speeds. STEAM as a education integrating science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics has strengths of increasing interests and understandings in science and technology and improving integrated thinking and problem solving ability for leaners. In this study we analyze the elementary school curriculum and construct physics learning based on STEAM and develop a android application to increase interests in science and improve problem solving ability. In the future, we need to analyze and develop the curriculum and contents for the STEAM education.

In this paper, we propose a distributed routing algorithm for mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) where mobile devices can be utilized as relays for communication between remote source-destination nodes. The objective of the proposed algorithm is to minimize the end-to-end communication delay caused by transmission failure with deep channel fading. In each hop, the node needs to select the next relaying node by considering a tradeoff relationship between the link stability and forward link distance. Based on such feature, we formulate the problem with partially observable Markov decision process (MDP) and apply deep reinforcement learning to derive effective routing strategy for the formulated MDP. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other baseline schemes in terms of the average end-to-end delay.

In order to predict the future needs of the aircraft repair parts, each military group develops and applies various techniques to their characteristics. However, the aircraft and the equipped weapon systems are becoming increasingly advanced, and there is a problem in improving the hit rate by applying the existing demand prediction technique due to the change of the aircraft condition according to the long term operation of the aircraft. In this study, we propose a new prediction model based on the conventional time-series analysis technique to improve the prediction accuracy of aircraft repair parts by using machine learning model. And we show the most effective predictive method by demonstrating the change of hit rate based on actual data.

Recently, due to the development of related technologies for autonomous vehicles, driving work is changing more safely. However, the development of support technologies for level 5 full autonomous driving is still insufficient. That is, even in the case of an autonomous vehicle, the driver needs to drive through forward attention while driving. In this paper, we propose a method to monitor driving tasks by recognizing driver behavior. The proposed method uses pre-trained deep convolutional neural network models to recognize whether the driver's face or body has unnecessary movement. The use of pre-trained Deep Convolitional Neural Network (DCNN) models enables high accuracy in relatively short time, and has the advantage of overcoming limitations in collecting a small number of driver behavior learning data. The proposed method can be applied to an intelligent vehicle safety driving support system, such as driver drowsy driving detection and abnormal driving detection.

The purpose of this study is to investigate pre-service middle school earth science teachers' perceptions about the learning of geological field trip. The study sample consists of 39 undergraduate students at the university located in a metropolitan city. Additionally, 4 pre-service earth science teachers are semi-structure interviewed. The instrument of the study includes a 5-category perception about the learning of geological field trip, which consists of needs, educational values, educational experience, teaching methods, and training for learning. The results are as follows. First, participants are important to the need and educational values of learning about the geological field trip regardless of gender and grade level. Second, all participants have experienced geological field trip in college. They have more opportunities to experiment for field trip as they advance to higher grade. There is significant difference between lower and higher graders in terms of the goal of learning about geological field trip. It needs a new lesson model to teach geology between men and women regarding teaching methods category. In order to practice geological field trip in school, participants perceive that they need the knowledge of geological context, experiment of field trips, and how to teach geological field trip to students. This study suggests that pre-service earth science teachers' perceptions include how to teach and learn geological field trip during their college year.

As the necessity of cyber education is being raised up recently, Cyber Home Learning System(CHLS) is increasingly adopted at all school levels ranging from elementary to high schools. The purposes of this study are to find out that how elementary social studies of CHLS influence on the academic performance and learning attitude of students and their satisfaction. Based on these suggestions on social studies of CHLS are proposed. To accomplish the purposes, comparisons were made between experimental group utilizing social studies of CHLS and control group of traditional class of 54 students(27 students each in experimental and control group) in 5th grade. The results are as follows. Utilizations in social studies of CHLS showed positive effects on academic performance and learning attitude, and students' satisfaction on social studies of CHLS were rather increased. Based on these findings, several suggestions are made. First, strategy to improve motivation and confidence for students to participate on social studies of CHLS are necessary. Second, thinking and problem-solving activities needs to be integrated to social studies of CHLS. Third, for meaningful social studies, environment that can improve communication and thinking ability through interaction needs to be facilitated. Fourth, supporting plan is advised for teachers carrying on the role of manager and facilitator.

The fourth industrial revolution based on information and communication technology has increased the need for an environment where contents in new technologies can be learned for the development of lifelong vocational capabilities. To prepare for this, K University's online lifelong education center has established STEP, a smart learning platform. In this study, we conducted a study and other platform case analysis for STEP learner types, a survey of learners, and a comprehensive analysis based on these results to classify characteristics by learner types. It also intended to establish a plan to provide customized services to meet the needs of STEP learners in the future. The derived results are as follows. It is necessary to constantly manage learning content difficulty and learning motivation survey, and also needs to refine the operation of learning content in terms of learning composition. In addition, it is important to secure specialized content, to manage vulnerable learners, to actively introduce a learner support system and various educational methods.

Since Air and Correspondence High School (ACHS) in Korea was established in 1974, it has been serving many people who couldn't take the opportunities for learning in the regular high school due to several reasons. Regardless of the rapid change in technologies and educational needs during the past 31 years, however, ACHS hasn't changed much. Concerns have been recently made about the validity of the unchanged school system and many issues have been discussed relating to the innovation of the school system. Focusing on the teaching and learning contents, one of the important issues with respect to the school system, this paper examines the 7th English Curriculum for ACHS. The paper also investigates the textbooks used in ACHS to see how closely they align with the students' English proficiency and ACHS' instructional method by employing McDonough and Shaw's(1993) framework for textbook analysis. The results revealed that the current curriculum does not sufficiently reflect ACHS's characteristics, which leads to the adoption and development of inappropriate textbooks in terms of overall coherence, proficiency level, etc. The results suggest that the development of the curriculum and textbooks for ACHS should be based upon the students' needs and their level of proficiency rather than depending on the national curriculum and government-authorized textbooks intended for the relatively homogeneous school-age learners.

Although the subject of Mechanical Drawing is very important in mechanical engineering education, it is hard to teach the subject effectively, because it needs to carry out lectures and labs in parallel and needs substantially large portion of CAD lab time. In the department of Mechanical Systems and Design Engineering of SNUST, Project Based Learning is adopted to teach the subject of Mechanical Drawing. In this course, students experience to read and to draw drawings through the PBL project after the lectures on mechanical drawings. In this way, they can learn by heart the drawing skills and the operation of CAD software tools. In this paper, various PBL projects and teaching methods carried out in recent years are presented and the effects of the projects are discussed.
