In this paper, we study the effect of writing activity as mathematical communication on the students's mathematics achievement, learning attitude, and mathematical tendency. For this purpose, we construct a experimental class and then analyze the students' change in those aspects after applying three-divided-note writing activity and colleague feedback on their works those students are in the experimental class. As a result of the experiment, we find that three-divided-note writing activity and colleague feedback made some significant changes on the students achievement in mathematics, learning attitude, but does not affect on mathematical tendency. We also offer some suggestions for further research. Firstly, the mathematical communication ability must be stressed in mathematics education. For this purpose, we need to develop the teaching and the evaluation method to use not only writing but also reading, speaking, and listening skills so that many teachers can apply this method easily to their classes. Second, we need to fix some realistic problems such as fair evaluation , the numbers of students per class, the numbers of lesson, and too much extra-work, and so on. Thirdly, we suggest to explore some methods for extending three- divided-note writing activity to evaluate mathematical essay and to study educational effects of colleague feedback on mathematics performance assessment.

Listening comprehension can be defined as a process of an integrative, positive and creative activity through which listeners get the message of speakers' production using linguistic or non-linguistic redundancy as well as linguistic or non-linguistic knowledge. Compared with reading comprehension, it has many difficulties especially for foreigners. while it can be transferred to the other skills: speaking, reading, writing. With this said, listening comprehension can be taught effectively using the following teaching strategies. First. systematic and intensive instruction of segmental phonemes, suprasegmental phonemes and sound changes must be given to remove the difficulties of listening comprehension concerned with the identification of sounds. Second, vocabulary drill through various games and other activities is absolutely needed until words can be unconsciously recognized. Without this, comprehension is almost impossible. Third, instruction of sentence structures is thought to be essential considering grammar is supplementary to listening comprehension and reading comprehension for academic purpose. So grammar translation drills, mechanical drills, meaningful drills and communicative drills should be performed in succession with common or frequently used structures. Fourth, listening activities for overall comprehension should teach how to receive overall meaning of intended messages intact. Linguists and literatures have listed some specific activities as follows: Total Physical Response, dictation, role playing, singing songs, selective listening, picture recognition, list activities, completion, prediction, true or false choice, multiple choice, seeking of specific information, summarizing, problem-solving and decision-making, recognization of relationships between speakers, recognition of mood, attitude and behavior of speakers.

English immersion has emerged in Korea only recently as an innovative approach to learning and teaching English. Lack of real life experience of using English has been one of the biggest obstacles for Korean learners of English and has resulted in an increasing number of children being sent to English-speaking countries and a huge amount of dollar outflow. This recent innovation is expected to be the magic wand to resolve all these problems. However, setting up an immersion program in a typical EFL context like Korea has brought in another set of issues and challenges. The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of a short-term immersion English program in Korea and provide some empirical data to develop programs that can better cater to the needs of EFL learners. A two-week English immersion program was developed and implemented with 57 Korean and Japanese students whose grade level ranged from 4 to 12. The study results show that the program was successful in terms of changing the participants' attitude toward learning English, improving their English skills, enhancing intercultural understanding and competence, and motivating them for further studies of English and other foreign languages and cultures.

Voice is the most common means for communication, but some people have difficulties in generating voice due to their congenital or acquired disorders. Individuals with speech disorders might lose their speaking ability due to hearing impairment, encephalopathy or cerebral palsy accompanied by motor skill impairments, or autism caused by mental problems. However, they have needs for communication, so some of them use various types of AAC (Augmentative & Alternative Communication) devices in order to meet their communication needs. In this paper, a mobile application for literate people having speech disorder was designed and implemented by developing accurate and fast sentence-completion functions for efficient user interaction. From a user study and the previous study on Korean text-based communication for adults having difficulty in speech communication, we identified functionality and usability requirements. Specifically, the user interface with scanning features was designed by considering the users' motor skills in using the touch-screen of a mobile device. Finally, we conducted the usability test for the application. The results of the usability test show that the application is easy to learn and efficient to use in communication with people with speech disorders.

This paper presents a comparative study on the effectiveness of teaching an engineering course using English with Specific Purpose(ESP). A study was performed using student groups; one class using ESP, and one class conducted in English with an English text. The course conducted using ESP showed the greatest improvement in English writing and conversation, and the students reported a greatly increased confidence in their ability to function professionally using English. A self-assessment of each student was conducted before and after the courses. Prior to the course less than 10% in each group felt that they are able to: a) understand a textbook, b) write an email, c) generate a project report, or d) follow a lecture given in English. The survey at the end of the course showed that the ESP teaching style resulted in significant improvements in students ability and confidence with writing and speaking in English, whereas reading skills were similar for both groups. This is due to the ESP method, in which students are required to give presentations and keep journals in English. After a brief review of the ESP principles and a discussion of how they were implemented, the background data of the participants(students) are described. Finally, the end-of-semester survey highlights the efficacy of the ESP approach.

The purpose of this study is to investigate elementary students' communication in process of applying mathematical modeling. For this study, 22 fifth graders in an elementary school were observed by applying mathematical modeling process (presentation of problem ${\rightarrow}$ model inducement activity ${\rightarrow}$ model exploration activity ${\rightarrow}$ model application activity). And the level of their communication with their activity sheets and outputs, observation records and interviews were also analyzed. Additionally, by analyzing the activity cases of and , this study researched that what is a positive influence on students' communication skills. Whereas showed significant advance in the level of communication, who communicated actively on speaking area but not on every areas showed insensible changes. To improve communication abilities, cognitive tension and debate situation are needed. This means, mathematical education should continuously provide students with mathematical communication learning, and a class which contains mathematical communication experiences (such as mathematical modeling) will be needed.

This study compares various speech rates of Korean learners with those of native Korean. Speech data were collected from 34 native Koreans and 33 Korean learners (19 Chinese and 14 Japanese). Each participant recorded a 9 syllabled Korean sentence at three different speech rate types. A total of 603 speech samples were analyzed by speech rate types (normal, slow, and fast), native languages (Korean, Chinese, Japanese), and learners' proficiency levels (beginner, intermediate, and advanced). We found that learners' L1 background plays a role in categorizing different speech rates in the L2 (Korean), and also that the leaners' proficiency correlates with the increase of speaking rate regardless of speech rate categories. More importantly, faster speech rate values found in the advanced level of learners do not necessarily match to the native speakers' speech rate categories. This means that learning speech rate categories can be more complex than we think of proficiency or fluency. That is, speech rate categories may not be acquired automatically during the course of second language learning, and implicit or explicit exposures to various rate types are necessary for second language learners to acquire a high level of communicative skills including speech rate variation. This paper discusses several pedagogical implications in terms of teaching pronunciation to second language learners.

영재교육은 개인이 가진 능력을 최대한 계발하여 자아를 실현하고, 국가 사회가 필요로 하는 인재 육성의 육성이라는 점에서 그 중요성이 강조되어 왔다. 영재교육이 활성화되기 위해서는 제도적인 측면과 함께 그들의 능력수준과 학습욕구에 적합한 영재교육 프로그램이 개발되어야 한다. 이 연구에 참여한 언어 영재 학생은 총 60명인데, 이 중에서 예비 연구에 참여한 30명은 연구자가 개발한 심화학습 프로그램과 언어 문제해결력 검사의 양호도를 평가하기 위한 대상이었고, 실험집단 30명은 10명씩 세 집단으로 나누어 각 집단에 한국교육 개발원 교재, 연구자가 개발한 심화학습 프로그램, 국어 교과서 심화학습 프로그램에 배정하여 프로그램간의 유의도를 비교 검증하였다. 결과를 종합하면, 언어 영재학생에게 연구자가 개발한 체계화된 개별화 심화학습 프로그램을 제공하면 언어 창의적 문제해결력이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 한국교육개발원 언어 영재 교재나 국어 교과서 심화학습도 언어 영재에게 읽기 능력을 향상시키는 데 약간의 효과는 있지만, 언어 이해 능력과 언어 표현 능력을 효율적으로 발달시키는 데는 효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 한국교육개발원 언어 영재교재나 국어 교과서 심화학습 내용처럼 듣기, 말하기, 읽기와 쓰기를 따로 분리해서 지도하는 것보다 일상생활처럼 듣기, 말하기, 읽기, 쓰기를 종합해서 함께 지도하는 것이 언어적으로 재능있는 영재에게는 더 효과적이라고 나타났다. 또한 지역이나 학교 급별에 따라 언어 영재성의 개념이 달라질 수 있으므로, 그에 알맞은 언어 영재 심화학습 프로그램을 지속적으로 개발할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
