Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and apply a video dietary instruction program for hemodialysis patients to understand dietary compliance as well as the effect on the physiological indicator. Methods: This is a quasi-experimental study of a nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. Data were collected from August 6, 2012 to January 10, 2013. Twenty patients were assigned to an experimental group and twenty-one patients were assigned to a control group. A video dietary instruction program was developed and applied only to the experimental group once a week for a total of 8 weeks. Dietary compliance and physiological indicators were subsequently measured. Results: Dietary compliance was improved in both groups over time. There was no significant change in the physiological indicator value in both groups, indicating that there was no correlation between the treatment type and time. Conclusion: The video dietary instruction program could not make a statistically significant change on the physiological indicator value of the experimental group; however, this change was maintained within the allowable limits. Therefore, the video dietary instruction program can be utilized continuously as a standardized nursing intervention program in order to maintain the dietary compliance of hemodialysis patients.

This study examined the effects of collocation-based instruction on L2 vocabulary acquisition and learners' interests in it. Fifty one students were randomly assigned to the experimental group (collocation-based instruction group) and to the control group. The participants' English vocabulary capacity was checked through pre and post tests, and two surveys were used to probe the learners' vocabulary learning behaviors and their interests in English vocabulary learning respectively. To better understand the participants' opinions and feelings on the collocation-based learning, follow-up interviews were also carried out. The results showed that second language (L2) learners' vocabulary capacity was significantly improved through collocation-based instruction. However, the participants' degree of interest in vocabulary learning did not reach our expectation partly because of external factors such as the Test for the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) and lack of familiarity of collocations. Such results indicate that the high school students' rooted perception of putting importance on test-based language learning could not be easily changed since it is closely related to their immediate needs. Based on the results, this study suggested how to implement collocations into L2 classrooms effectively.

Purpose: This study was aimed to develop a WBI(Web Based Instruction) program on safety for 3rd grade elementary school students and to test the effects of it. Method: The WBI program was developed using Macromedia flash MX, Adobe Illustrator 10.0 and Adobe Photoshop 7.0. The web site was http://www.safeschool.co.kr. The effect of it was tested from Mar 24, to Apr 30, 2003. The subjects were 144 students enrolled in the 3rd grade of an elementary school in Gyungju. The experimental group received the WBI program lessons while each control group received textbook-based lessons with visual presenters and maps, 3 times. Data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, and ${\chi}^2$test, t-test, and repeated measure ANOVA. Result: First, the WBI group reported a longer effect on knowledge and practice of accident prevention than the textbook-based lessons, indicating that the WBI is more effective. Second, the WBI group was better motivated to learn the accident prevention lessons, showing that the WBI is effective. As a result, the WBI group had total longer effects on knowledge, practice and motivation of accident prevention than the textbook-based instruction. Conclusion: We recommend that this WBI program be used in each class to provide more effective safety instruction in elementary schools.

In the last 20 years, educators have made significant advances in their thinking about how students learn and what it is that teachers ought to teach. They attempted to teach thinking s kills and designed instructional programs to facilitate learning. The purpose of this study was to review metacognitive approaches in reading comprehension instruction, and to provide some practical implications to school teachers. First, this study reviewed the concept of metacognition. Metacognition can be divided by metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive experiences. Metacognitive knowledge consists of knowledge or beliefs about what factors interact to affect the outcome of cognitive enterprises. Metacognitive experiences are executive control of one's own cognitive process, which include planning, monitorning and evaluating. Second, this study attempted to investigate the processes of reading comprehension in the metacognitively based view. Third, this study reviewed three kinds of reading comprehension instruction. In the metacognitive approaches, instruction is viewed as constructive process in which teachers and students mediate and negotiate meaning from the instructional environment. In order to enhance reading comprehension, teachers should use examples, explicit instruction, modeling, and elaboration to provide sufficient scaffolding to students. The scaffolding gradually diminishes as students learn to use and apply the reading strategies on their own. Also, students should be encouraged to attribute successful reading to the use of appropriate strategies.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare educational effects between traditional classroom instruction and video self-instruction (VSI) for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in boy's high school students. Methods: This study was carried out targeting totally 96 boy students(47 people for experimental group, 49 people for control group) in the second grade of high school where is located in G city of G province from July 9-10, 2009. The experimental group and control group were arbitrarily selected two classes in the second grade. One class was assigned to the experimental group. another class was assigned to the control group. The experimental group was educated with VSI for CPR. The control group was educated with traditional classroom instructions for CPR. The analysis was performed with SPSS WIN (version 12.0) program using frequency chi-square($x^2$) test, independent samples t-test, and paired t-test. Results: After instructions, the knowledge, attitude, self-confidence, and skill performance accuracy scores on CPR increased statistically in both group. The increases of self-confidence ($2.40{\pm}0.73$) and skill performance accuracy score ($2.67{\pm}0.29$) in the experiment group were significantly higher than those ($2.01{\pm}0.96$ and $2.54{\pm}0.31$) in the control group, respectively. Conclusion: This study suggested that VSI was more effective than traditional classroom education for self-confidence and skill-performance accuracy in CPR. To confirm it, more studies are warranted.

Anxiety is known to upset the balance of the attentional system and prioritize the stimulus-driven system over the goal-directed system; however, self-instruction induces goal-directed behavior with the self-regulation effect. This study verified the effects of meteorological and self-instruction conditions on pilot anxiety and flight task performance for in-service pilots in a virtual reality environment. The meteorological conditions were divided into visual meteorological and very low visibility conditions, and the flight tasks were conducted by varying whether or not self-instruction was performed. The experiment results reveal that anxiety and heart rate were higher, and the performance of the flight task was lower in the very low visibility condition. However, anxiety and heart rate were lower, and the performance of the flight task was higher in the self-instruction condition. This result suggests that accidents due to difficulty in flight may increase because of anxiety, but such accidents may decrease because of flight performance improvement by self-instruction.

The purpose of this study was to develop e-learning contents and to examine how ICT-powered instruction using the developed e-learning contents affects the science achievements of students and how the students respond to that. After an experiment in the 7th class of the weather condition unit in high school earth science, e-learning contents were prepared by using the videotaped material and flash animation to teach key learning points. The selected two different classes, experimental and control groups, shows almost the same final scores in the first semester. The experimental group received ICT-powered instruction with the contents developed in the study, and the control group received a typical expository lesson. And then the achievement test was done to these two groups, separately. The major findings of the study were as follows: As for the effects of ICT-powered instruction on the academic achievement, the average scores of the experimental group is higher than that of the control group, but the difference is insignificant. When each group was subdivided into the upper and lower groups, the upper group got higher average scores and the difference was significant. But there was no significant disparity between the lower groups. Therefore, the ICT-powered instruction using the e-learning contents gives a good effect on the students whose levels are higher than the average. In the questionaike about the ICT instruction, they generally had a positive opinion about its impact on learning interest and class participation and its learning effects.

The Purpose of this study was to find out whether there was any difference in adolescents' decision making abilities according to the level of critical thinking in practical problem-based instruction of Home Economics. The subjects of this study ware 147 students from K girl's high school in Daegu. They were divided into two groups. The former was the experimental group, which took' practical problem-based instruction' of Home Economics. The later was the control group, which took the typical lecture-based instruction. Factor analysis, Cronbach ${\alpha}$, correlation, and two-way ANCOVA were Performed for data analysis. The results of this study are as follows: First, there was no significant difference in the steps of problem identification and information search of the decision making according to teaching methods and the level of the critical thinking ability. Second, the adolescents who took the practical problem-based instruction had shown more improvement in the steps of alternatives consideration and value of the decision making ability than those who took the typical instruction. Third, the adolescents with the high level of critical thinking ability have made much more improvement than those with the low. And it was found that in the case of adolescents with the low level of critical thinking ability, those who took the practical problem-based instruction have made much more improvement than the others who took the typical instruction. On the other hand, in the case of adolescents with the high level of critical thinking ability, those who took the typical instruction improved much more than the others who took the practical problem-based instruction.
