Schools are expected to ultimately moderate the difference of inequality issues among social groups and reduce the achievement gaps. This study investigates this expectation, in particular, how students' mathematics achievements are influenced by their parents' education at the individual level and by collective responsibility for teaching at the school level as well as the interaction of the two. Using a two-level hierarchical linear model, this study indicates that a school collective responsibility has a larger positive effect on students' mathematics achievement when their parents' education level is high. This means that school's collective responsibility accelerates inequity in students' mathematics achievement. Knowing that collective responsibility has less of an effect on students whose parents' education is not high, researchers, schools, and school districts should continue to search for school effects that have more of a positive impact on the relationship between mathematics achievement for students whose parents' education is not high in order to have more equitable results for all students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in non-cognitive factors, specifically achievement goal orientation (AGO) and self-regulated learning (SRL), influencing the academic achievement (AC) of medical and nursing students. 186 students, including 110 medical students and 76 nursing students, completed a survey, which addressed the factors of AGO and SRL. There were significant differences in the factors that affected the academic achievement of medical and nursing students. Multiple regression revealed that the AC of medical students was significantly more affected by mastery-approach AGO (p<0.05), seeking information (p<0.001), and rehearsing/memorizing SRL (p<0.01), while the AC of nursing students was affected by performance-approach AGO, self-efficacy (p<0.001), and time-management SRL. Analysis of variance revealed that significant differences in the sub-factors of AGO and SRL between the medical and nursing students. Thus, it was found that the academic achievement of medical and nursing students was influenced by non-cognitive factors, but there were significant differences in the sub-factors by group. It is suggested that comparative studies with other student groups and a longitudinal study of medical and nursing students need to be conducted, and a personalized counseling and learning intervention focusing on non-cognitive factors should be provided to medical and nursing students.

This study investigates 628 high school students' math dislike tendencies by their math achievement levels. The findings show that, firstly, as the sample students' math achievement level decreases, the number of dislike factors increase. Secondly, students' math dislike factors are differentiated by their math achievement levels. Math high achievers show high math disliking tendency by teacher factor. Middle achievers show high math disliking tendency by complex application and relation factors. Low achievers show high math disliking tendency by comprehension factor. Finally the math disliking factors affecting the level of math achievement are influenced by schools and grades that students' attend. While math disliking factors such as comprehension factor, teacher factor, affection factor are generally present among sample schools, exceptionally JS high school students(high achieving students) are only affected by mentality factor. In addition, mentality factor affects the second grade students only. The implications of the study argue that students' math disliking tendencies could be systematically reduced by paying attention to such dependent variables students' achievement levels, grade, school characteristics, and independent variables including teacher, application, mentality, comprehension, and affection.

This study examines the effect of using interactive electronic models to teach mathematical concepts on students' achievement in the linear algebra course at university. The field sample consisted of 200 students divided into two equal groups, an experimental group of 100 students and a control group of 100 students. The researcher used an achievement test in some mathematical concepts related to linear algebra. The results of the study showed that there were statistically significant differences (0.05) between the average achievement scores of the experimental and control groups in the post application of the achievement test, in favor of the experimental group. The size of the influence of the independent factor on the results of the study, which is "interactive electronic forms", on the dependent factor, which is the students' academic achievement in the prepared test, had a very large effect. Also, the results of the study showed that there were statistically significant differences (0.05) between the mean scores of the experimental group in the pre and post applications of the achievement test, in favor of the post application. The researcher recommended the use of interactive electronic models in teaching mathematical concepts at the university level and diversifying the strategies of teaching mathematics, using technology to attract learners and raise their academic achievement.

This study examined 1) student pilots' personality types, 2) the correlation between students' personality types and their achievement in flight training, 3) the correlation between students' personality types and Instructor Pilot(IP)s' personality type. The study used the Korean version of Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) form. A total of 164 students in the year of 2000-2003 completed the inventory. The noticeable majority of student pilot were extroverted (59.6%) - Sensing (79.5%) - Thinking (70.2%) - Judgers (68.9%). Comparing personality types with flight achievement in showed no significant correlation. There was, however, a significant difference seen in comparing personality types with students' flight achievements. Thinking-type students showed higher flight achievements than feeling-type, and some of the personality types combination affects trainee's flight achievement. When both student and the Instructor have same attitude such as E-E or I-I, student's flight achievement was higher than when they have opposite attitude of personality. these findings implicate that the cooperation of students' and IP's personality could affect the students' flight achievement.

Mathematics and science are very closely related. Among the science areas, physic is strongly linked with mathematics. As the related mathematics skills were alloted later than the science contents in the national curriculum, students often suffer from science classes. Accordingly, an opinion have been claimed to teach the related mathematics skills prior to the science classes. However, it would be hard to arrange all science and mathematics contents in order. Instead of that, in this research, we taught students mathematics contents that are crucial for learning speed through science classes. We called that teaching strategy an integrated science and mathematics class. Then, we examined students' achievement in science as well as skills of mathematics to know the effectiveness of the strategy. We found that the average mathematics score of the whole class went up meaningfully. We also found that their science achievement was above than basic level. Moreover, the homeroom teacher of the students observed 3 aspects which showed the students were better than previous students. Finally, we divided the students into 4 groups by their science and mathematics achievement score and interviewed each group. As a result, we knew that interesting and confidence in science and mathematics quite exerted influence on their achievement.

This thesis is to see if the classes using problem posing is effective to improve the students' grades in math. So I set up research subjects as follow. 1. Do the classes focused on problem posing have any influence on the students' achievement\ulcorner 2. Do the classes focused on problem posing have any different influence on the students' achievement according to their levels\ulcorner 3. Do the classes focused on problem posing have any different influence on the students' achievement according to the categories in math\ulcorner I close four classes in the first grade of K middle school in Kangnung, Kangwon province for this thesis. First I divided them into two groups. Each group consisted of two classes. One is the experimental group. The other is the comparative group. The experimental group was taken classes using problem posing. The comparative group was taken classes by the traditional teaching method. And then I analyzed the difference of the achievement between two groups. As a result of this research, I came to the conclusion as follow. First, the classes focused on problem posing is more effective than traditional teaching method for the improvement of the students` achievement Second, both the classes using problem posing and the traditional teaching method doesn`t affect to the advanced students. Third, the classes using problem posing is more effective to the intermediate students and lower level students than the traditional teaching method. Especially it is very effective in teaching the students the linear equation.
