This study is a meta-analysis study to comprehensively investigate the effects of flipped learning teaching applied to nursing students in Korea through systematic review. Data collection was conducted by a team of two researchers from November 20 to December 20, 2022. A total of 129 papers were searched through the domestic database, and duplicate papers were removed and the final 9 studies were selected. Flipped learning improved critical thinking disposition of nursing students 0.91(Z=8.36, p<.001), learning self-efficacy 0.35 (Z=2.62, p=.009), self-directed learning ability 0.81(Z=6.53, p<.001), academic achievement 0.60(Z=5.18, p<.001), and self-efficacy 0.66(Z=4.79, p<.001). Based on the results of this study, it was confirmed that flipped learning is an effective teaching method applicable to the domestic nursing education field, and an objective basis was presented for the direction of flipped learning class design. In the future, we suggest repeated studies that comprehensively analyze the effects of various outcome variables that have a positive effect on flipped learning.

I studied on the relations of constructivism and school library assisted instruction in this paper. Constructivism is the most important goal of the modern schooling. In constructivism they insist that knowledge is constructed by the learner individually and subjectively. So in constructivism they focus their attention on setting authentic environment of learning for each individual learner. Constructivism was developed into the learner-centered instruction in schooling nowadays. In constructivism the following instructions are very important for achievement its' goal ; problem based learning, project based learning, discussion based learning etc. These instructions are supported commonly by resource based learning. Educational resources are managed in school library totally. School library assisted instruction is the most effective one for resource based learning. And information literacy instruction by teacher librarian relates closely meta cognitive learning of reflections in constructivism. School library assisted instruction is the essential element for the practice of constructivism in schooling.

The growth mechanism of AMT(Ammonium Meta-Tungstate) crystal was interpreted as two-step model. The contribution of the diffusion step increased with the increase of temperature, crystal size, and supersaturation. The crystal size distribution from a batch cooling crystallizer was predicted by the numerical solution of a mathematical model which uses the kinetics of nucleation and crystal growth. Temperature control of a batch crystallizer was studied using Learning control algorithm. The purity of AMT crystal producted in this investigation was above 99.99%.

We present a methodology that automatically selects indexing algorithms for each heading in Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine's vocabulary for indexing MEDLINE. While manually comparing indexing methods is manageable with a limited number of MeSH headings, a large number of them make automation of this selection desirable. Results show that this process can be automated, based on previously indexed MEDLINE citations. We find that AdaBoostM1 is better suited to index a group of MeSH hedings named Check Tags, and helps improve the micro F-measure from 0.5385 to 0.7157, and the macro F-measure from 0.4123 to 0.5387 (both p < 0.01).

In this study, we develop 15 learning programs to enhance the variable identification and control abilities for the middle school students and analyze the effect of the programs applied to the class. To increase the learning effect of the variable identification and control abilities, we design the programs so that the students can monitor their thinking processes and also they can evaluate the results from their cognitive activities objectively. We analyze the effect of the programs applied to the class and the results show that the test group, which uses the program, marks higher scores in the variable identification abilities compared to the control group. Also, the test group has the increased level of logic to control the variables. Especially, the effect is higher with the students who do not have any logic to control the variables. From the results, we know that it is possible to improve the variable identification and control abilities of the students through the meta-cognitive learning programs developed by us. Furthermore, the results show that the score of variable control abilities positively correlate with that of meta-cognitive level. It means that the meta-cognitive strategy meaningfully increases the variable control abilities of middle school students.

Given the local traders with pattern-based multi-predictors of stock prices, we study a method of dynamic asset allocation to maximize the trading performance. To optimize the proportion of asset allocated to each recommendation of the predictors, we design an asset allocation strategy called meta policy in the reinforcement teaming framework. We utilize both the information of each predictor's recommendations and the ratio of the stock fund over the total asset to efficiently describe the state space. The experimental results on Korean stock market show that the trading system with the proposed meta policy outperforms other systems with fixed asset allocation methods. This means that reinforcement learning can bring synergy effects to the decision making problem through exploiting supervised-learned predictors.

There has been disagreement on the importance of definitions in science education. Yager (1983) believes that one crisis in science education was due to the considerable emphasis upon the learning of definitions. Hobson (2004) disagrees with physics textbooks that do not provide general definition on energy. Some textbooks explain that "there is no completely satisfactory definition of energy" or they can only "struggle to define it." In general, imprecise definitions in textbooks (Bauman, 1992) and inaccuracies in definition provided by teachers (Galili & Lehavi, 2006) may cause alternative conceptions. Besides, there are at least four challenges in defining physical concepts: precision, circularity, context and completeness in knowledge. These definitional problems that have been discussed in The Feynman Lectures, may impede the learning of physical concepts. A meta-study approach is employed to examine about five hundreds journal papers that may discuss definitions in physics, problems in defining physical concepts and how they may result in alternative conceptions. These journal papers are mainly selected from journals such as American Journal of Physics, International Journal of Science Education, Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Physics Education, The Physics Teachers, and so on. There are also comparisons of definitions with definitions from textbooks, Dictionaries of Physics, and English Dictionaries. To understand the nature of alternative conception, Lee et al. (2010) have suggested a theoretical framework to describe the learning issues by synthesizing cognitive psychology and science education approaches. Taking it a step further, this study incorporates the challenges in semantics and epistemology, proposes that there are at least four variants of alternative conceptions. We may coin the term, 'alternative definitions', to refer to the commonly available definitions, which have these four problems in defining physics concepts. Based on this study, alternative definitions may result in at least four variants of alternative conceptions. Note that these four definitional problems or challenges in definitions cannot be easily resolved. Educators should be cognizant of the four variants of alternative conceptions which can arise from alternative definitions. The concepts of alternative definitions can be useful and possibly generalized to science education and beyond.

When dynamics changes occurred in an existing Bayesian Network (BN), the related parameters embedding on the BN have to be updated to new parameters adapting to changed patterns. In this case, these parameters have to be updated with the consideration of the causalities in the BN. This research suggests a framework for updating parameters dynamically using Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm and Harmony Search (HS) algorithm among several Meta-Heuristics techniques. While EM is an effective algorithm for estimating hidden parameters, it has a limitation that the generated solution converges a local optimum in usual. In order to overcome the limitation, this paper applies HS for tracking the global optimum values of Maximum Likelihood Estimators (MLE) of parameters. The proposed method suggests a learning and propagation framework of BN with dynamic changes for overcoming disadvantages of EM algorithm and converging a global optimum value of MLE of parameters.

This study was designed as a meta-analysis to investigate the research trends in mathematics learning disabilities(MLD) area. The results of this study were as follows: The 201 researches targeted for the analysis can be categorized 4: characteristic of students with MLD, screening students with MLD, interventional teaching for students with MLD, and et cetera. Also, the outcomes of researches regarding intervention in MLD determined to have a large effect resulted in a total average of 0.958. Especially, as a result of analysing the effect size in accordance with teaching method variables in group-case designed researches, the effect was largest when direct instruction and strategy instruction was given. The effect was largest when the frequency of intervention was over 16 and under 20. The results in this study be summed up as follows. MLD can be served as a foundation in setting a direction for further research to improve in Korea.
