  • This paper, drawing on various secondary sources related to bilingualism and bilingual education, proposes a semi-CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) model as an initial option for Korea's ELT instruction at a primary level, with a subsequent application to a secondary level in mind. It is reported that the current pedagogy focused on early English education and communicative language teaching does not meet the needs of students' EFL proficiency. The main reasons for this are considered to lie in the social and educational environment which impedes EFL students' meaningful and authentic communication in target language. Thus, by exploring a conceptual approach to such a problem, this paper suggests a paradigm of integrating content and language for a reasonable solution.

  • This study investigated the specific aspects of three elementary pre-service teachers' epistemic cognition depicted in their science teaching language during a simulation teaching experiment on the seasonal change of air temperature. The integrated analytic methods of practical epistemology analysis and the AIR model were used. Also, the working processes involved in the language teaching as an epistemic tool to promote student learning were identified. At the hypothesis-forming stage of the simulation teaching, three pre-service teachers presented explicitly presented the epistemic learning goal of hypothesis-creating through giving encounters. As the epistemic ideals about assessing the achievement of an epistemic goal, the teachers mainly used the criterion whether the new knowledge was connected with the previously learned knowledge. However, all the three pre-service teachers needed to disclose the reliable process in enough detail. At the hypothesis testing stage of the simulation teaching, they presented their epistemic goals, such as sharing the results of the experiments and comparing the results with the hypothesis through encounters. They used the experimental conditions as standing fast language use. The similarity relations between the empirical evidence obtained through the experiments and the language used for the experiments were employed as the epistemic ideals for the hypothesis test. However, based on the correlation obtained from the experiment, pre-service teachers tried to verify the causal hypothesis that the seasonal change in the air temperature occurred due to the differences in the Sun's meridian altitude. The mismatch between the correlation and causality created a gap, which needed to be resolved, i.e., the reliable process was not satisfied. The results of analyzing the teaching language in this study are significant because they inform the elementary pre-service teachers of the points at which they need to improve their teaching language to facilitate the students' knowledge construction process.

  • The purpose of this study is the preliminary inequality experiment study of control group to confirm the effects of convergence education by jigsaw model and flipped learning in nursing students. The subjects of this study were 81 students who participated in Integrated Practice II of the 3rd grade of Nursing Science in J area and data were collected using the questionnaire before and after the convergence education. As a result of the study, it was found that convergence education by jigsaw model and flipped learning was significant in learning satisfaction(t=-3.783, p=.001). Therefore, convergence education by jigsaw model and flipped learning as a teaching and learning method is expected to improve the learning satisfaction and maximize the learning outcome, so this study is meaningful as the basic data itself. Based on these results, it is necessary to develop and apply the teaching - learning program that combines jigsaw model with flipped learning.

  • This study is a process of studying an alternative educational model and a preceding analysis process of the study where a teaching method considering the expertise of animation is applied with a perspective of effectively increasing the animation drawing ability. The animation field which is the image contents is a visual art that delivers the story through the movement of the subject, and when looking only at the education related to the drawing, the items required for expertise should be clarified and the development of a systematic curriculum and teaching method is required. Therefore in this study, it aims to review the necessity of education model development by analyzing the educational contents and domestic and foreign curriculums that corresponds to the categorization of motion drawing considered with expertise of animation. As a result, it will be used as a basis for planning the educational model of a subject in the category of motion drawing. This process corresponds to the analysis phase of ADDIE educational model development and in the future, as an attempt for integrated studies, will lead to a study of developing and applying the educational model based on the functions of brain and creative mechanism.

  • In this study, the basic motor control system had been investigated. The controller for this study consists of two main parts, a feedforward controller part and a feedback controller part. Each part will deals with different control problems. The feedback controller deals with robustness and stability, while the feedforward controller deals with response speed. The feedforward controller, used to solve the tracking control problem, is adaptable. To make such a tracking perfect, an adaptive law based on Feedback Error Learning (FEL) is designed so that the feedforward controller becomes an inverse system of the controlled plant. The novelty of FEL method lies in its use of feedback error as a teaching signal for learning the inverse model. The theory in $H^{\infty}$-Control is selected to be applied in the feedback part to guarantee the stability and solve the robust stabilization problems. The simulation of each individual part and the integrated one are taken to clarify the study.

  • In a project schedule, it is possible to reduce the time required to complete a project by allocating extra resources for critical activities. However, accelerating a project causes additional expense. This issue is addressed by finding optimal set of time-cost alternatives and is known as the time-cost trade-off problem in the literature. The aim of this study is to identify the optimal set of time-cost alternatives using a multiobjective teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO) algorithm integrated with the non-dominated sorting concept and is applied to successfully optimize the projects ranging from a small to medium large projects. Numerical simulations indicate that the utilized model searches and identifies optimal / near optimal trade-offs between project time and cost in construction engineering and management. Therefore, it is concluded that the developed TLBO-based multiobjective approach offers satisfactorily solutions for time-cost trade-off optimization problems.

  • Statistical thinking has a broad definition but focuses on the context of regression modelling in the present study. To foster students' statistical thinking within the context, teaching should no longer be seen as transfer of knowledge from teacher to students but as a process of engaging with learning activities in which they develop ownership of knowledge. This study aims at collaborative learning contexts; students were divided into small groups in order to increase opportunities for peer collaboration. Each group of students was asked to do a regression project after class. Through doing the project, they learnt to organize and connect previously accrued piecemeal statistical knowledge in an integrated manner. They could also clarify misunderstandings and solve problems through verbal exchanges among themselves. They gave a clear and lucid account of the model they had built and showed collaborative interactions when presenting their projects in front of class. A survey was conducted to solicit their feedback on how peer collaboration would facilitate learning of statistics. Almost all students found their interaction with their peers productive; they focused on the development of statistical thinking with concerted effort.

  • This study is to explore the applicability of PBL classes in undergraduate education at a School of Dentistry. To do this study, PBL modules were developed and applied to the students with different background knowledge to easily learn Integrated Medicine and Lifescience classes. Participants were 12 students in the first year of Integrated MS program at P University. Four tutors who majored in Dentistry and had PBL teaching experience participated. As a result of the PBL classes, students' concepts and knowledge about gene expression and expression were expanded, and they recognized the importance of self-directed learners and experienced the importance of collaborative learning. PBL tutor presented a positive assessment of attending PBL class experience and the educational need for PBL instruction. The results of this study show the possibility of PBL as a model for Integrated Medicine and Lifescience class in Dentistry education.

  • The purpose of this study was to classify the courses of the dental-hygiene curricula into several categories by field, to incorporate the subjects in the same category into an integrated course, and to suggest how to ensure the successful phase-in application of integrative education according to Ronald M. Harden's 11-stage integrative ladder model. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. When the existing curricula were analyzed, it's found that many credits were provided to the courses in the area of basic dentistry that offered both theory and practice. In particular, the subjects tested by the national examination were offered by every college. In the field of public oral health, the largest number of credits was allocated to theory of oral prophylaxis and practice courses. In clinical area, clinical practice, in the area of dental office management, dental insurance course was given the largest credit. There were 31 to 61 major subjects in the colleges, which indicated that the major subjects were segmented in detail. 2. It seemed necessary to incorporate the subjects in the field of basic dentistry into oral biology, and theory of oral prophylaxis/practice, preventive dentistry/practice, preclinical stage, emergency treatment and introduction to dental hygiene should be integrated in to clinical dental hygiene. The courses in clinical area should be combined into clinical dentistry, and in the field of medical management, dental insurance, hospital management and medical relation law should be incorporated into management of dental clinic. 3. In the 11-stage integrative ladder, the subjects in the same field could perfectly be incorporated as the stages advanced. Each of the subjects was less emphasized, and communication and joint plans among teachers who were respectively in charge of the courses were increasingly considered important. Specifically, there should be a consensus among the teachers in regard to the outline of teaching programs, order of education. objects and objectives of programs and what and how to evaluate.
