Inquiring earth science phenomena is characterized by the followings: a big scale of time and space, inaccessibility, uncontrollability, and complexity. Thus, it is very difficult or, in some cases, impossible to investigate them through the actual manipulation in laboratories. Therefore, it is necessary to provide chance for students to experience scientific inquiry without actual manipulation in earth science classes. This study is to explore the role of reasoning based on a thought experiment as a representative model without actual manipulation, and to investigate features of various inquiry models using reasoning in classes. We can make implications when applying for applying each inquiry model to earth science classes, proposing a reasoning-based inquiry model embedded in earth scientific phenomena.

This study was designed to 10 questions as development of GAP program for ninety high school students(each student of 30 with achievement as high, medium, and low categories), it was analyzed the perception of Earth scientist. High school students have a positive perception about a course in Earth science, but they have lack of knowledge about Earth scientist as a career man, and they can't recognize Earth scientist as a career. A failure of learning of Earth science for Students with low level achievement leads to a negative perception about Earth scientist and disconnection to future career. School education should provide an opportunity to encounter Earth scientist for students and it is badly in need of effort to connect to the job training program.

The purpose of this study was to suggest the earth science lesson model based on the creativity character education. To conduct this study, the curriculum revision in 2009 was analyzed by the causal mapping method. One after another, the creativity character education and earth system education were analyzed by the same method. Through as mentioned above, the key words which have relating concepts each other were picked out. Lastly, the key words were connected and compounded for the earth science lesson model based on the creativity character education. The model indicates that the earth science lesson based on the creativity character education requires the reconstructs of the processing and contents of the lesson. In other words, the teaching/learning must be progressed as corresponding between scientific facts and mental recognition, scientific concepts and compounding thinking skill, scientific laws and reconstructing thinking skill. In contents were reconstructed as relating to knowledge, creativity, characters and guidance counseling. The results of this study suggested the earth science lesson model based on the creativity character education needs developing and applying teaching/learning materials and managing discussing and cooperative learning.

This study aimed at identifying the characteristics of current Earth Science Curricula in several countries in terms of their format, objectives and contents and discussing about them. The curricula(including textbooks) were collected from 6 countries The United States of America, England, Australia, Japan and The Republic of China. Here are the results of this study ; 1. Earth Science should be teached in high school and assigned at least 8-10 unit. 2. In Earth Science objectives, scientific inquiry methods through observation and experiment and mutual relationship among science, technology and society must be stressed. 3. The contents of Earth Science must did with experimental and activity rather than understanding in order to induce students to how more intersts in Earth Science. 4. There is a growing tendency for Earth Science Education to be attached importance to life environment and career education.

Recently, with the increase of environmental problems, the importance of environmental education has also been emphasized. Science is a subject that enormously contributes to education about the environment, education in the environment, and education for the environment. Among various fields of science, earth science has a large amount of contents related environmental education, from the perspectives that the subjects of earth science are natural and artificial changes in the earth surface. Accordingly, it is clear that earth science education can play an important role in environmental education. This is proved in the fact that the goal and specifics of earth systems education coincidence with those of environmental education. Earth science curriculum in Korea, however, contains few contents related to environmental education. Earth science education that concerns our environment as a whole will help not only catch a new interest on the field of earth science but actively participate in solving our environmental problems.
