The purpose of this study is to draw up the promoting plan of science preference by survey and analysis of the preference for science of the elementary students. The preference for science is defined theoretically with three categories ; they are emotional response, behavioral response and value establishment. Causal factors of the science preference were composed of individual factor, educational factor and social factor. According to this theoretical model, a questionnaire was developed, and administered to 696 students of 4,5,6 grade of randomly selected eight elementary schools all over the nation. Elementary students liked science, but they didn't want to select their future job in science-technology area. The science preference of boys was higher than that of girls. The science preference of 4th grade students was higher than that of 5th and 6th grade students. Individual factor affected the curiosity. learning interest, subject accomplishment on the science and course selection in life. Educational factor not only directly affected the curiosity. learning interest, value establishment and belief of the science but also indirectly affected the individual factor and social factor. Therefore, educational factor was the most important on the science preference. Social factor only affected the value establishment and belief on the science. Elementary students wanted to team science through experiment and they wanted science to be easier than that of now. On the analysis of result, the promoting plan of the science preference was suggested.

In this study, relationships between student the cognitive affective characteristics and conceptual understanding from individual computer-assisted instruction were investigated. Tests regarding field dependence-independence, learning strategy, self-regulated ability, visual learning preference, goal orientation, self-efficacy on ability, and computer attitude were administered. After having been taught by means of a CAl program, a conception test on molecular motion was administered. It was found that student conceptual understanding was significantly related to field independence, learning strategy, self-regulated ability among the cognitive characteristics and visual learning preference, goal orientation, self-efficacy on ability among the affective characteristics. Multiple regression analysis of the cognitive characteristics on conceptual understanding found that field dependence-independence was the most significant predictor. Self-regulated ability and a deep learning strategy were also found to have predictive power. Lastly, analysis of the affective characteristics, visual learning preference and self-efficacy on ability exposed them to be significant predictors of student conceptual understanding.

We investigated science-gifted students' conceptions on science learning. The inventory instruments used for our study were a questionnaire on the conceptions of learning science (COLS) and a questionnaire on the approaches to learning science (ALS). Our analysis of the questionnaires showed that there are differences in the conceptions of science learning between the science-gifted and ordinary students. Science-gifted students perceive science learning as storing up of scientific knowledge, expansion of knowledge structure and achievement of a new view. There are no differences in the conceptions of science learning between male and female science-gifted students. There are also no differences in the conceptions of science learning in terms of subject preference such as physics, chemistry, biology and earth science. Our analysis offer assistance to teaching material and teaching method for science courses.

This study examined preferences for the clothing and textiles section of 'Technology and Home Economics' course, comparing males to females, and subdividing three groups based on the preference of the clothing and textiles section: a high-preference group, a medium-preference group, and a low-preference group. Their perceptions of the section. need to study, level of practice of teamed content, and learning needs were compared between males and females and among the three sub-groups. The subjects of this study were 176 male and 176 female high school students in Seoul. Data were collected using questionnaires with a 5-plint scale in September, 2004. Finally, 352 questionnaires were analyzed by the SPSS program. The results showed that all preferences for the clothing and textiles section were average and girls' preferences were higher than boys' preferences. General perceptions of the clothing and textiles section were positive, and there were no significant differences by gender. The perceptions of the high-preference group were more positive than those of the other two groups. The perceived importance of studying was high. especially with respect to clothing care and storage. Girls reported a greater need to study than boys did. Among both boys and girls, the high-preference group reported a greater need to study than the middle and low-preference groups did. The level of practice of learned content was leo, except for contents related to attire and the purchase of clothing. Girls practiced contents learned about attire more than boys did. Among boys, the high-preference group practiced contents teamed in all areas more than boys in the other two groups. However, among girls. only content related to attire was preferentially practiced by the high-preference group. Both boys and girls exhibited tile greatest learning need for fashion coordination. Girls had more learning needs than boys in all contents, except for clothing and environment. Among all students, the higher the level of preference, the higher their learning needs.

This study examined how the learning styles and emotions of 234 students enrolled in early childhood education-related departments affected their ability to participate in the learning community. The research collected the variables of the pre-service early childhood teachers' ability to participate in the learning community, the emotions that they experienced while learning, and their learning styles. The collected data were analyzed through correlation analysis and regression analysis. The results indicate that the students' ability to participate in the learning community was positively correlated with the following: their analytical learning attitude (among learning styles); learning motivation; degree of preference for discussion and discussion types; positive and negative emotions, which are subcategories of learning emotion; and the degree of preference for experimentation and their practice type among teaching methods. Second, regression analysis showed that the students' ability to participate in the learning community could be predicted by negative emotion as a subcategory of their learning emotion, learning motivation, degree of preference for the experiment and practice type, their analytical learning attitude, and the degree to which students value studying the content of their major subjects.
