In this study, we investigated elementary school teachers' and students' perceptions of the reading materials in science textbooks. Participants were 181 teachers from 23 elementary schools who were teaching science and 643 third- to sixth-grade students from 12 elementary schools. A questionnaire for teachers consisted of 18 items and a questionnaire for students consisted of 11 items about their perceptions of the reading materials in science textbooks. Nine to twelve items, according to grades, examining the actual uses of each reading material in science textbooks were also included to both questionnaires. The results indicated that teachers have positive perceptions about reading materials and frequently use them in case of needs for supplement and/or enrichment of science learning. Novice teachers were found to have less positive perceptions about reading materials than expert teachers. Over 70 percent of students responded that they read all reading materials. Fifth- and sixth-grade students were tended to have less positive perceptions about reading materials than third-grade students. Finally, students tended to have more positive perceptions about reading materials than their teachers.

In this study, the characteristics of the reading materials in elementary school science textbooks developed under the 2009 revised National Science Curriculum were investigated. The criteria for classifying the reading materials were the types of topic, purpose, students' activity, and presentation. The visual images in the reading materials were also analyzed from the viewpoint of type, role, caption type, and proximity type. The results indicated that the number of the reading materials in the 2009 revised science textbooks decreased compared to that of the 2007 revised science textbooks. It was also found that the frequencies of the reading materials expanding concepts of the text and/or requiring corresponding students' inquiry increased. More visual images were used in the reading materials of the 2009 revised science textbooks. However, several limitations were still found to exist; most visual images were illustration and/or picture; many visual images were presented without a caption; there was a problem in the proximity of visual image to text.

The Purpose of this study is to examine the effects of the Smart reading program, Smartree, in an elementary English class. Recently in Korea, the use of smart technologies in education has become an issue with the introduction of a new educational platform and increased social interaction between teachers and students. The Smart learning paradigm is converging with technology and social learning. This study examines an English reading method using smart technology and how it affects the improvement of elementary students' reading ability, we also suggest effective reading methods related to Smart learning suitable for this new educational trend. The results showed that the use of a tablet PC based Smartree reading program had meaningful effects on both improvements of cognitive reading ability and changes in affective attitude.

본 연구의 목적은 초등학생 시기의 독서선호도와 독서습관이 중학생의 독서 행동에 각각 어떤 영향력을 미치는지 확인함으로써 학년이 올라감에 따른 독서량 감소 문제를 해결할 수 있는 효과적인 독서 활성화 방안을 제시하고자 함에 있다. 이를 위해 중학교 1학년을 대상으로 그들의 초등학교 6학년 시절의 독서습관과 독서선호도를 조사한 후, 평균값을 기준으로 집단을 나누었다. 또한 참가자들은 6주 동안 매주 1회 독서 보고서를 작성하면서 20분 이상 독서한 날 수와 독서 시간을 분 단위로 응답하였다. 연구 결과, 첫째, 참가자의 초등학교 6학년 시절 75% 이상이 일주일에 1권의 책을 보지 않는 결과를 보였다. 둘째, 본 연구에서는 책을 많이 읽는 것과 좋아하는 것은 다른 차원의 요소임을 확인하였다. 예를 들어 참가자들 중 책을 좋아한다고 말하지만, 실제로는 책을 거의 읽지 않는 사람이 약 35%를 차지함을 확인하였다. 셋째, 초등학생 시기에 형성된 독서 선호도보다 독서 습관이 중학생의 독서한 날수와 독서 시간에 영향을 미치는 더 강한 변수임을 확인하였다. 즉, 초등학생 때 독서 습관이 높은 수준으로 형성된 중학생은 중학생이 돼서도 책을 자주 읽고 독서에 더 오랜 시간 집중하지만, 독서 습관이 낮은 수준으로 형성된 경우 중학생이 돼서도 책을 읽지 않는다. 본 연구결과를 통해 독서에 대한 주관적 태도와 실제로 책을 읽는 행동은 전혀 다른 문제임을 보여준다.

This study analyzed the reading materials presented in the existing 'Experiment Observation' targeting 31 elementary school students and conducted a preliminary investigation to examine the cause which makes the science reading materials of elementary school difficult to read. Also, on the basis of a preliminary investigation, this study developed the reading materials on science. After that, by examining the degree of understanding about existing reading materials on 'Experiment Observation' targeting 55 students of elementary schools and the newly developed reading materials targeting 44 students of elementary schools, the study proved its effect. As the result of the study, the causes for which students felt difficulty in reading were as follows: the scientific or non-scientific terms were explained by using more higher levels of Chinese characters compared to the levels of students; the scientific terms never treated in the classroom were used in the reading materials without any explanation; the overall structure of existing reading materials was distracted and listed the fragments of information, and the sentences were described complicatedly; the contents of a text and the photo materials were not connected functionally. In addition, the newly developed science reading materials were preferred by students because more various methods were devised, such as more systematic structure, arrangements of simpler sentence structure, additional explanation of scientific terms, divisions of paragraphs and postscript and their understanding was found to be improved.

The purpose of this study was to verify the validity and reliability for the Test of Oral Reading and Comprehension Skill (Gardner, 2000) for Korean lower level elementary school children. Subjects were 122 first to third grade students, tested individually. The vocabulary and comprehension sub-tests of K-WISC III and the reading comprehension test of Basic Academic Skills Assessment (Kim, 2000) were used to verify concurrent validity. Internal reliability was determined by internal consistency coefficients. Results verified concurrent validity. Test scores differed significantly by grade level. Test reliability was also confirmed. In conclusion, the Oral Reading and Comprehension Skill Test (Gardner, 2000) is reliable and valid for examination of reading comprehension skills for Korean lower level elementary school children.

독서인증제는 독서교육 방법의 하나로 학생들의 독서 및 독후활동 이후 이를 담임교사나 사서가 인증해주고 그에 대한 보상을 통해 독서동기를 유발하는 프로그램이다. 본 연구는 경기도 가평지역 초등학교에서 실시하고 있는 독서인증제의 운영현황 및 효과를 조사 분석하고 문제점과 그에 대한 개선방안을 제시하고자, 문헌조사를 통해 학교도서관의 독서교육과 독서인증제에 관한 이론을 고찰하고, 사서와 학생을 대상으로 운영현황, 효과, 만족도, 독후활동, 독서동기 요인 등의 항목으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사 결과를 분석하여 도출한 문제점에 대한 개선방안으로는 권장도서 선정, 다양한 보상체계를 위한 자체 예산배정, 참여율이 저조한 학생을 위한 독후활동 개발 등이 있다. 본 연구의 결과가 각 초등학교에서 독서인증제 시행 시 참고할 수 있는 기초자료로 활용되고, 독서인증제 적용에 대한 인식 전환의 계기가 되기를 기대한다.

In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the reading materials in the elementary school science textbooks in order to obtain implications for the effective use of them. The reading materials in the elementary school science textbooks developed under the 7th and the 2007 revised National Science Curricula were analyzed. The criteria for classifying the reading materials were the type of theme, purpose, students' activity, the type of presentation, the type of images, the role of images, and readability. The results indicated that the reading materials in the 2007 revised science textbooks are more systematic than those in the 7th science textbooks in terms of their length and their distribution among energy, matter, life, and earth areas. It was also found that various types of reading materials are presented in the 2007 revised science textbooks covering new themes such as frontier science, job opportunity and career, and environment. In addition, the reading materials in the 2007 revised science textbooks introduce more visual images and the readability of them are also better than their counterpart. However, several limitations were still found to exist in the reading materials of the 2007 revised textbooks; most of them are non-inquiry and explanatory; most of the visual images are illustration and/or pictures. Educational implications are discussed.
