This study aims to investigate the different opinions about feedback given to high level Middle School students about their writing.18 students in the Gifted Program participated in the study. They were divided into three groups through their presurvey answers according to their language learning opportunities and genders. Students language self-assessment was compared with achievement as well. Three times of students' written work were collected. They then received feedback from the teacher and their two peers respectively. With the teachers' and peers' feedback, they completed their final draft. The study then examines how much the students take feedback practically from the different feedback givers. Examples of formative and corrective feedback were arranged to find out the differences in the students practice when giving and taking feedback. These Gifted class students showed that they didn't care much about who gave them the feedback, instead they cared more about how much language competence they presumed the feedback giver had. Implications of the findings are discussed and future study is suggested.

Writing is a subjective and performative activity. Writing ability has multi-facets and compoundness. To understand the examinees's writing ability accurately and provide effective writing scores, raters first ought to have the competency regarding assessment. Therefore, this study is significant as a fundamental research about rater's characteristics on the TOPIK writing assessment. 150 scripts of the 47th TOPIK examinees were selected randomly, and were further rated independently by 20 raters. The many-facet Rasch model was used to generate individualized feedback reports on each rater's relative severity and consistency with respect to particular categories of the rating scale. This study was analyzed using the FACETS ver 3.71.4 program. Overfit and misfit raters showed many difficulties for noticing the difference between assessment factors and interpreting the criteria. Writing raters appear to have much confusion when interpreting the assessment criteria, and especially, overfit and misfit teachers interpret the criteria arbitrarily. The main reason of overfit and misfit is the confusion about assessment factors and criteria in finding basis for scoring. Therefore, there needs to be more training and research is needed for raters based on this type of writing assessment characteristics. This study is recognized significantly in that it collectively examined writing assessment characteristics of writing raters, and visually confirmed the assessment error aspects of writing assessment.

교육분야에서 웹의 활용성에 대한 인식이 크게 증대되고 있는 반면 제대로 된 인터페이스 설계가이드가 없어 개발과정에 많은 어려움이 있다. 가이드라인이 있다 하더라도 일률적이고, 단편적이어서 디자인 개발에 실질적인 도움이 되지 못하는 문제점을 않고 있는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구는 심리적 언어도출을 통한 웹사이트 평가 방법을 개발하여 이것이 설계과정에 가이드라인이 될 수 있는가를 연구하고자 하였다. 먼저 심리적 언어를 도출하여 이를 설계 원리들과의 연관성을 알아 본 후 이렇게 만들어진 분류 체계를 기반으로 평가의 모델을 구축하였다. 그 결과 심리적 언어체계를 바탕으로 한 평가 모델이 실질적인 인터페이스디자인 문제해결에 도움을 준다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 기존의 웹 개발자를 위한 인터페이스 가이드라인은 소프트웨어 개발에 사용되어지는 용어들로 인해 디자이너가 실질적으로 활용하기에 많은 어려움이 따랐지만, 디자이너의 역할이 크게 증대되고 있는 지금 심리적 언어체계의 가이드라인은 이해하기 쉽고, 사전에 문제점을 미리 파악 할 수 있어 졸은 자료로 활용 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of students' attitudes to internet media language and orthographic knowledge on their use of internet media language. The participants were 989 students in the 4th to 11th grades in Kyunggi-do. It was found that the participants used more internet media language in internet literacy than for general writing. Elementary students exhibited significantly less orthographic knowledge and used more internet media language to write on the internet than older students. Students' attitudes to internet media language went a long way to explaining their self-assessment on the frequency of using internet media language and their genuine use of internet media language on the internet. Their orthographic knowledge, however, was not a significant predictor for their use of internet media language.

This case study investigated the assessment and treatment of bilingual children using a 4.5 year old bilingual child. We also compared treatment methods for bilingual children in the U.S. and in Korea, respectively. Given the lack of unbiased assessment tools, it was difficult to evaluate the child properly. In addition, the study of the linguistic characteristics of bilingual children have not been researched extensively in Korea. As a result, there were limitations in assessing the child. However, once all requisite information had been gathered, he was assessed as a bilingual child with specific language impairment (SLI) and his skill in both languages was considered equivalent. During treatment sessions, the child exhibited diverse linguistic characteristics and interesting error patterns which were not evident in monolingual SLI. However, it was difficult to assess whether the error patterns exhibited by the subject were attributable to his own bilingual characteristics or not. This was further complicated by the lack of previous research on the bilingual child's linguistic characteristics. His progress differed from one area to another. Furthermore, we illustrated some of the limitations in assessing bilingual children and proposed several considerations that should be met before treatment is initiated.

This research analyzed procedural problems presented in academic writing faced by international students. The result of this research will serve as a basis for suggesting methods of developing a curriculum in Korean writing as a liberal arts education designed for international students. To analyze problems presented in academic writing by international students, the standard of assessment was divided into interaction, knowledge construction, and material quotation. Then, knowledge construction was divided into contents, structure, and expression, and the items were subdivided in each category. These categories of assessment correspond to the genre of academic writing and are different from the existing standard of assessment for academic writing. Applying these standards, this research analyzed 43 texts of academic writing in process for a final paper by international students in an class and presented problems in them. Furthermore, this paper aims to give detailed feedback that can help solve those problems.
