  • Purpose: Business education is in high demand whereas knowledge is critical for an individual's professional development in general, and for teachers in particular. In this research, the effect of the distributions of teachers' business knowledge on schools' achievement were investigated. Research design, data and methodology: This study employs a quantitative method to investigate the level of business knowledge distributions of teachers on schools' achievement. 155 business studies subject teachers were categorised into 66 respective schools to measure the correlation and regression between teachers' business knowledge distribution and schools' achievement. Results: The results of the study show that there is a significant relationship between school achievement from the aspect of teachers' business knowledge distributions, with the score of, r = 0.345, p < 0.05. The value of R2 shows a moderate relationship between the teachers' knowledge distributions on school achievement but still plays a role in determining the measurement of the school's level of achievement. Conclusions: It is concluded that the relationship between teacher's business knowledge and school achievement in the subject of Business Studies is significant. This study proves that the teacher's knowledge about business is very important in guaranteeing the success of students who took this subject.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of science lessons using mind mapping on creativity and academic achievement in science. The subjects of this study were fifth-grade students selected from four classes of an elementary school located in Busan. For ten weeks, the experimental group of 40 students were taught using the mind mapping technique. The comparative group, also of 40 students, was taught in normal classes which used a standard text-book. Children were given a test on science processing skills and academic achievement in science to measure the effects of mind mapping. The Likert scales were used to gather student's feedback on creativity and academic achievement in science. Through these procedures, the following results were obtained: First, mind mapping had a greater effect on science processing skills than the normal classes, where a text-book was used. Second, mind mapping was effective in improving the student's academic achievements in science at a greater level than the normal classes where a text-book was used. Third, after viewing results of the Student Recognition Investigation, we found that the students showed a higher level of interest in science lessons that used mind mapping, and were better able to understand the scientific theories. As a result, the elementary science class with mind mapping developed greater science processing skills and saw higher academic achievement in science. We conclude that science classes that use mind mapping have the potential to develop better science processing skills and improve academic achievement in science.

  • ACM's CSTA has drafted standards for computing curricula and recommended them to schools in the United States. The five core concepts of the US elementary school computing curriculum are computing systems, network and the Internet, data and analysis, algorithms and programming, and impacts of computing. In 2005, Korea prepared ICT education guidelines, including five fields, their subfields, and achievement criteria for each subfield. In the 2015 revised curriculum, software education was introduced and five achievement standards were set. The ACM CSTA has 18 achievement criteria up to K-2 and 21 achievement criteria up to K-5. If we compare the 39 achievement standards of the US to Korea, Korea's 2005 ICT education guidelines include 25 of these, and the 2015 revised curriculum includes 5 of them. In this study, we aim to study the CSTA achievement criteria that second graders should know and the achievement criteria that fifth graders should know. This is compared and analyzed with Korea's 2005 ICT Guidelines and 2015 Software Curriculum. In comparison with the number of achievement standards, the US elementary school's computing achievement standards are much higher than in Korea. Comparing with each standard, there are many areas that are not covered in Korean curriculum, and we can see that the 2015 curriculum has rather receded from 2005.

  • 이 연구는 초등학교 6학년, 중학교 3학년, 고등학교 1학년 학생들 중에서 3%를 표집하여 2006년에 시행된 국가수준 학업성취도 평가에서 학생들의 과학과 성취도와 학생 관련 배경변인과의 관계를 조사하였다. 그 결과 부모와의 대화 정도가 많을수록, 방과 후 스스로 공부하는 시간이 많을수록, 책을 많이 읽을수록, 자기조절 학습정도, 학교 생활 적응 정도, 과학 수업 충실도, 과학 수업 이해 정도, 과학 교과에 대한 태도가 높을수록 과학 성취도가 높게 나타나는 경향이 있었다. 학생의 과학 성취도에 영향을 주는 배경변인을 묻는 설문 결과에서 현재 학교 현장에서 주도하는 교육 풍토가 입시 위주임을 알 수 있었으나, 학생 관련 배경 변인에 대한 전반적인 결과에서 학생들의 과학 성취도 향상을 위해 단지 공부만을 강조하는 외적 동기 위주의 자극보다는 흥미나 과학에 대한 태도, 학습 방법, 인간관계 등 내적인 동기를 자극하는 접근이 더 중요함을 알 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 한국 중학생들이 과학을 학습하는 과정에서 경험하는 성취정서를 측정하기 위한 질문지를 개발하고 그 타당성을 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구에서 개발한 한국 중학생의 과학영역 성취정서 질문지는 영어판 성취정서 질문지를 바탕으로 중학교 교과 운영 특성 및 과학 학습의 특징을 반영하여 개발되었다. 총 232문항으로 3가지 학업상황에서 9개의 과학 영역 성취정서를 측정하도록 구성되어 있으면 통제-가치 이론에 근거를 두고 있다. 검증 결과, 높은 신뢰도를 보였으며, 성취정서의 4가지 구성요인 체계를 확인하기 위한 확인적 요인분석(CFA) 결과, 질문지의 각 문항이 성취정서의 구성 요인을 대표하는 지표로서 적절히 구성되어 있었으며 구조적으로 타당하였다. 또한 질문지를 통하여 측정되는 성취정서들 사이의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 같은 상황에서 경험하는 각각의 정서 및 서로 다른 상황에서 경험하는 동일한 정서가 서로 적절히 변별 되었다. 성취정서와 학업상황 사이의 잠재적 관계에 대한 확인적 요인 분석 결과에서도 질문지의 내적 구조와 동일하게 3가지 학업상황 및 9가지 성취정서가 잠재변수로서 작용하고 있음을 확인하였다. 외적 타당도 검증은 통제-가치 평가, 학습 전략, 성취동기, 과학 성적 등을 준거 변인으로 하여 실시하였으며 검증 결과, 충분한 외적 타당도를 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 정량적으로 분석할 수 있는 질문지의 개발을 통해 중학교 과학 교과에서 학생들이 경험하는 성취정서를 이해하는 기본 발판이 마련되었음을 시사한다.

  • 본 연구에서는 영재학생들과 일반학생들이 과학학습 상황에서 경험하는 성취와 관련된 학습정서를 비교해보고 영재학생들의 긍정적 성취정서 형성 요인을 확인해보고자 하였다. 그 결과 수업상황, 학습상황, 시험상황 각각 8개 요소 모두에서 각 그룹별 유의미한 차이를 볼 수 있었다. 영재학생들은 일반학생들보다 높은 긍정적 성취정서를 가지고 있으며 반면에 화, 불안, 수치심, 절망감, 지루함과 같은 부정적 성취정서는 일반학생들보다 더 낮게 형성되어 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 영재학생들의 성취정서가 어떤 요인에 의해 형성되었는지 확인하기 위하여 서술식 설문을 실시하였고 결과를 학습과제, 학생, 교사 요인으로 분류하였다. 영재학생들의 긍정적 성취정서의 형성은 과학 학습을 매우 가치 있는 활동으로 평가하고 있으며, 실험수업을 즐기고 긍정적인 평가경험을 가지고 있는 것에 기인하였음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 적극적인 학습 태도와 과학에 대해 기존에 가지고 있던 관심과 지식, 긍정적인 자아 인식, 진로와의 연관성 그리고 교사의 흥미유도와 칭찬 등에 의해 영향을 받고 있음을 확인하였다. 이를 반영하여 학생들이 과학과목에 대한 부정적 성취정서를 줄이고 긍정적 성취정서를 확대하는 방안이 마련되기를 바란다.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of peer mentoring activity in elementary school. For this study, an experimental group was conducted for peer mentoring activity in science class. The mentoring team was organized by mento-mentee team according to the scores of science process skill and achievement. The objects of this study were the sixth grade of both an experimental group (28 students) and a control group (27 students) located in Incheon. The results of this study were as follows. First, the experimental group was shown more significant effect for improvement of science process skills than the control group (p<.05). As the result of analysis by groups, both of mento and mentee showed significant effect for improvement of science process skills. Second, the peer mentoring activity showed more significant effect for improvement of achievement (p<.05). As the result of analysis by groups, mentee showed significant effect for improvement achievement. But mento group didn't show significant effect. Third, the peer mentoring activity showed the effect for positive changes of scientific attitude. If matching the mentoring object effectively and conducting the classes applying peer mentoring activity based on the results of this study, it's expected to draw student' improvement of science academic, achievement and positive changes of scientific attitude.
