  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the change of elementary school students' conception on the movement of the moon, after teaching a lesson about the lunar phase which focused on concrete activities. The 396 subjects in this study consisted of intact groups of second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth grade students. Pre-test and post-test instrument concerning on the conception in the movement of the moon were developed after reviewing the related literature and curriculum. Prevailing conceptions were identified by frequency of each conception. Then, the pattern of change and consistency of each conception were analyzed in comparison pre-test with post-test. To figure out the effect of teaching, the GEFT and the GALT instrument were administered to analyze it by gender, cognition mode and level. SPSS/WIN programs were used to process the data. The result showed that teaching 'movement of the moon' was the most effective in fourth grade. The effect of teaching 'changes in shape of the moon' was effective regardless of their sexes. Teaching 'changes in shapes of the moon' was more effective for the students whose cognitive modes were field-independent, than those filed-dependent. But the improvement by the teaching was not significantly different. The pre-score by cognitive level was significantly high in the order of the formal operational, transitional stage and the concrete operational stage. But the improvement of conception after teaching was high in the order of the concrete operational, transitional stage and the formal operational stage. That is to say, teaching was more effective as the cognitive level lowered.

  • Scythian Earrings in the Black Sea region had completely degenerated, stifled by motifs and shapes of Greek origin, retaining its representational realism and its full emotional vitality. The purpose of this study is to review and research the symbolic meaning and classifying the types of the Scythian Earrings style through the tombs bequests. The Scythian Earrings were divided into the styles according to the shape, Earring with Ends Shaped like animal's Heads, Boat-Shaped Earrings, Bird-Shaped Pendants earrings, Earrings with a Disc and a Pendant, Earrings Shaped like the Figures, Earring with the drop Pendant, Spiral Earrings. Earrings based on the boat shape enjoyed a long popularity among the Scythians. As that form became elaborated and combined with the disk-pendent, it reflected native rather than Asian or Hellenic tastes. Although Scythian earrings were produced based on the shapes of Greece earrings, they recreated these as Scythian unique style. In particular, the animal motive and the decoration have various changes. The exquisite earrings attest to the elegant taste and splendid wealth of the upper classes.

  • We investigated the morphological changes and TUNEL reaction of apoptotic cells in the liver of D-galactosamine (20 mg/mouse) and lipopolysaccharide (5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mouse)-treated 30 mice (BALB/c), and in additioa also of apoptotic cells in kidney and spleen. The livers and other some organs of mice at 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hrs after treatment were collected and were fixed with 10% neutral formalin and paraffin sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin or terminal deoxynucleotidly transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) method. Morphological changes in apoptotic hepatocytes were chondensation of nuclei and density of cytoplasms, then the margination and pyknosis of chromatin, the formation of half-moon- or horse-shoe- or ship-like shapes of condensed chromatin mass, lastly formation of apoptotic bodies, disappearance of nuclear envelopes, decrease of stainability, then lysis and disappearance of apoptotic bodies. TUNEL positive reactions of hepatocytes were appeared first moderate in uncondensed hepatocytes, severe in condensed hepatocytes, moderate in chromatin-marginated hepatocytes. These reactions also were appeared moderate in hepatocytes with half-moon- or horse-shoe- or ship-like pyknotic chromatin mass or apoptotic bodies, and mild or negative in hepatocytes with lysed apoptotic bodies or with disappeared nuclear envelopes. Consequently these results suggested that TUNEL positive reactions of hepatocytes appeared at more early stages than appearance of chromatin condensation and disappeared at more early stage than disappearance of histological findings of apoptosis. We also confirmed that the differentiation of apoptotic cells from normal healthy cells of Kupffer cells and vascular endothelial cells in liver, reticular cells and lymphocytes in spleen and epithelial cells of tubules and ducts in kidney was impossible in H-E preparations but was possible in TUNEL preparations.

  • Following to current interior design that becoming more varied and composite, minimal tendency has also been changed. Furthermore, according to the lapse of time, minimalism, a space design, has been developed in a new look among such complex trends. Therefore, in this study, changes of tendency into a style of minimalism and characteristics thereof shown in interior design amid current of times were carefully reviewed, and local and foreign artists together with their works were investigated and analyzed having focused on the inclination of minimalism displayed in interiors of commercial spaces, especially before or after 2000s by dividing them into distinctive features in connection with space, material and type. It is thought that the interior space under the concept of minimalism will be changed and developed further in a variety of shapes to suit the environments in the current era getting rid of simple physical characteristics.

  • This paper presents the free vibration analysis of a circular plate with a concentric square hole. The present problem deals with the numerical calculation of the natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibration of the structure by means of Independent Coordinate Coupling Method (ICCM). In this study, the boundary condition is the edge of the square hole is free and the outer circular plate is simply supported. Due to the geometric abnormality, this analysis does not permit an exact solution. Since the ICCM employs coordinate systems corresponding to each domain independently, the kinetic and potential energy expressions necessary for the Rayleigh-Ritz method can be easily obtained. Lastly, the kinematic relation is imposed. In this way, the eigenvalue problem can be easily set up. The numerical results show the efficacy of the ICCM and changes in natural frequencies and modes due to the square hole size.

  • The purpose of this study is to understand the effect of The Model of Phases of the Moon on conception changes for preservice teachers. The researcher interviewed two preservice teachers under the agreement with them on their participation in the research just before he performed a class using The New Model of Phases of the Moon. The post-interview with the same content as the pre-interview was preformed one month later. The main content of the interview is as follows; 'Explain the shape of the Moon by drawing it.', 'Explain the relative different position among the Sun, Earth, and Moon depending on phases of the Moon by drawing them.', 'What do you think of the cause of phases of the Moon?', 'Draw a picture to explain why we always see only one side of the moon.' The results of the research are as follows. First, the class with New Model of Phases of the Moon was able to perceive the relationship of Sun, Earth, and Moon in three-dimensions rather than in two-dimensions and it helped to change their misconception that the Moon's shadow causes the Moon's shape. Secondly, the class with New Model of Phases of the Moon helped preservice teachers understand better the different positional relationships among the Sun, Earth, and Moon depending on the Moon shapes. Third, the class adopting the New Model of Phases of the Moon help preservice teachers form scientific conceptions on the causes of phase change of the Moon. Fourth, the class with the New Model of Phases of the Moon is not appropriate for explaining the reason why only one face of the Moon is seen. Based upon the results above, the researcher realized the limitation of this model and suggested that this model would help learners understand phase change of the Moon and increase space perception ability.

  • This study attempted to concider the morphological change of red blood cells after whole body irradiation. Blood samples used red blood cells of white mice and mouse after irradiation. Transmission electron microscope observation results, Anisocytosis was observed in red blood cells 20 days after 5 Gy irradiation. Triangle and tetrapod were observed for small red blood cell types. Poikilocytosis, sickle-shaped Drepanocyte, and Acantocyte were observed in general-sized red blood cells. Schizocyte was observed in red blood cells 20 days after 7 Gy irradiation. Scanning electron microscope observation results, Dacryocyte was observed with microcytes. It was also confirmed that red blood cells were get tangled with each other. In addition, polygonal shapes and half-moon shapes were also observed. In conclusion, it is judged that the modified form of pathological study is more important than the numerical change in the study of red blood cells by radiation exposure. In conclusion, it was confirmed that modified morphological studies are more important than numerical changes in the study of red blood cells by radiation exposure.

  • Patterns have their own shapes and characteristics as a symbol in accordance with in what environment they are like a language. Especially our ancestor had wished present values as like riches and honors, longevity and health, love and happiness through all kinds of patterns of animals, plants, the sun, the moon, cloud, water and mountain, and expressed an aesthetic consciousness. Pattern design is important in fashion but it is insufficient in terms of the development of modern patterns based on Korean traditional patterns. Therefore, We need to create new senses and thoughts through the understanding and re-analysis about Korean traditional costume and a study on optical patterns could give an extreme effect without any changes of silhouette. Especially, Emilio Pucci and Missoni have been developing a variety of Pattern designs even though there are different tendencies each other. Consequently it could be a good chance to show Korean images and originality that develope the various textile patterns with applying to Korean traditional patterns based on an analysis of their works.

  • Solar system small bodies are unusual objects in astronomical survey data in that they are moving on the celestial sphere. In addition, even in a normal status, their magnitudes are changing over time, firstly because their relative positions with respect to the Sun and Earth are continually changing, secondly because they are rotating bodies with non-spherical shapes. Furthermore, some of them might exhibit unexpected activities, which could be caused by mass ejection or disintegration. Detections and observations of such activities are challenging due to their abrupt nature. Therefore, continuous monitoring observations of large number of Solar system small bodies are required to systematically obtain detailed/transient information about them. Since 2018/2019 winter, we have launched a new project using Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet) for detecting such transient phenomena of Solar system objects. Our main goal is to monitor the magnitudes and detect sudden brightness changes. We also plan to discover interesting new objects, and monitor rotational brightness oscillations of asteroids. We intend to monitor the magnitudes of ~ 20,000 known Solar system small bodies per night, and acquire lightcurves of ~ 1,000 asteroids.
