  • This study applied effective playful learning to increase the learning motivation of non-CS major students to help them achieve learning and to successfully operate online SW liberal arts classes for 560 students. As a result of analyzing the students' reflection journals, most of the students accepted the 'white radish' of dialect names as fun playful learning in the process of learning local variables and global variables. And they were surprised and amazed at discovering unexpected contents in our SW class. It was found that they experienced delight in learning, learning-flow, confidence, and intrinsic motivation. In the final term exam at the end of the semester, it was confirmed that the correct rate of 92% for questions related to local and global variables was higher than the average rate of other questions' correctness of 67.1%.

  • The aim of this study is to develop of standard curriculum for University-level Program (UP) in environmental science. UP has much merit; for example, high school students can develop their road for future by the UP procedure which is related intimately with their choice of road for future. Environmental Science is the subject which is stable for UP's goals because of interated nature of environmental science. These goals and the increase of social demand made us proceed this study. So this study had developed a standard curriculum for UP in environmental science and designed in-service program for lecturers. This study analyzed the current situations and problems of the present environmental education in the university liberal arts and high school environmental science curriculum. As a result, most of environmental educations have been conducted mainly by an approach of natural science. Inevitably they should have limits in which students can't have holistic view in solve the environmental problem. Development of Standard Curriculum for UP in Environmental Science targeted on three points. The first point is the consideration for nature of talented high school students who have interests for environment. The second point is promotion of environmental literature for talented highschool students. The third point is the level of lecture, which we put together the lecture level on university general liberal arts. And designed the in-service program for lecturers, which constructed of six field and sisty hours.

  • In this study, we analyzed what STEAM-related subject contents, except mathematical knowledge, are contained in 2009 revised elementary first grade mathematics textbooks. STEAM-related subject contents in the textbooks were examined by unit and by strand of the content in the elementary school mathematics curriculum. According to the results, the number and the type of STEAM-related subject contents are different depending on the unit and the strand of the mathematics content. Generally speaking, in each unit and in each strand of mathematics, storytelling liberal arts-related contents are seen the most, followed by non-storytelling liberal arts-related contents and physical education contents in order, while the number of musical contents was very small. So we need to develop different STEAM materials in order to activate STEAM education in our elementary math classrooms.

  • Recently, each university has been lecturing a lot on the liberal arts subject by emphasizing software education. However, students are often motivated by the difficulty of learning programming, the inability to recognize why they should learn programming, or even the fact that they do not try. The reason for the resilience is to guide programming learning to have the power to recover from the point of abandonment to proceed with the learning again. In this study, recovery elasticity pre-post-examination was conducted on the parts that learned scratches and those that learned Python. Studies have shown that while Scratch appears to be trying to accept and work harder, Python has been relatively more difficult than Scratch. It is expected that this study will help identify the factors that can sustain programming learning.

  • This is a study on a case applying flipped learning to coding classes that is a college liberal arts course. A required coding class for the students who do not major in computers needs a teaching method differentiated from a coding education for training experts. The present study presented a flipped learning teaching model for the coding education of non-major students, and observed its effect and possibility. Flipped learning enables learners to learn with on-line contents anywhere and anytime they want and concentrate on practice education based on what they learned during class. Accordingly, the study sought for the solution to maximize the efficiency of teaching and learning through flipped learning. A pre and post surveys after applying a flipped learning to a practical class confirmed that the students taught using flipped learning were more positively assessed in learning satisfaction than those taught using a traditional method, and that in academic achievement as well, flipped learning was more effective.

  • Since the launch of ChatGPT, many college students used it extensively in various ways in their curricular learning activities. This study investigates the utilization of ChatGPT in the curriculum of first and second-year engineering students, aiming to examine its influence from a learner perspective. We explored how ChatGPT is used in each subject and learning activity to understand how learners perceive the use of ChatGPT. From the survey data on engineering college students at E university, we examined students' perception on 'shortening time to perform tasks' through ChatGPT, 'dependence on ChatGPT', 'their contribution to individual capacity building', and 'their influence on academic grade'. The majority of students reported extensive use of ChatGPT for learning activities, particularly showing high dependency in liberal arts subjects and coding-related activities. While the use of ChatGPT in liberal arts was seen as not contributing to the enhancement of individual capacity, its use in coding was positively evaluated. Furthermore, the contribution of ChatGPT to the creativity in report writing tasks was highly rated. These findings offer several important implications for the use of AI tools like ChatGPT in engineering education. Firstly, the positive impact of ChatGPT's high usability and individual-capacity enhancement in coding should be expanded to other areas of learning. Secondly, as AI technology progresses, the contribution of AI tools compared to learners is expected to increase, suggesting that students should be encouraged to effectively use AI tools to achieve their learning objectives while maintaining a balanced approach to avoid overreliance on AI.

  • By using an idea of C$\u{a}$dariu and Radu [4], we prove the generalized Hyers-Ulam stability of the functional equation f(x + y,z - w) + f(x - y,z + w) = 2f(x, z) + 2f(y, w). The quadratic form $f\;:\;\mathbb{R}\;{\times}\;\mathbb{R}{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}$ given by f(x, y) = $ax^2\;+\;by^2$ is a solution of the above functional equation.

  • Let A be a nonnegative matrix of size $n \times n$. A is said to be nearly convertible if A(i│j) is convertible for all integers i, j$\in${1,2,…, n} where A(i│j) denote the submatrix obtained from A by deleting the i-th row and the j-th col-umn. We investigate some properties of nearly convertible matrices and existence of (maximal)nearly convertible matrices of size n is proved for any integers $n(\geq 3)$.

  • The general sextic functional equation is a generalization of many functional equations such as the additive functional equation, the quadratic functional equation, the cubic functional equation, the quartic functional equation and the quintic functional equation. In this paper, motivating the method of Găvruta [J. Math. Anal. Appl., 184 (1994), 431-436], we will investigate the stability of the general sextic functional equation.
