  • The purpose of this research is to analyze the problems of the way of the 32th TOPIK(advanced)'s management for the disabled examinee and to prescribe the management of the TOPIK for them. Since the TOPIK started in 1997, the number of examinee who take it as a qualifying exam for the university entrance have gradually increased. The first disabled examinee who wants to use the result of the TOPIK for entrance into the post graduated university took the 32th TOPIK(advanced level). However, there was no examination regulations and detailed management method for the disabled. The biggest problem was the examinee could not have braille test and answer. The exam supervisor read all that is printed on the test sheet. It caused two big problems. 1) The essay question in writing test became an oral test. 2) The strategies of answering to multiple choice questions could not be used in vocabulary/grammar, writing, listening, and specially reading section. The first problem is occurred because writing and speaking have different cognitive process. The second one can be strongly related to the result in reading section. Above all, these disrupt accurate assessment of the examinee's writing and reading achievement. Therefore, this research insists the TOPIK needs to have the regulation and prescribe the management for the disabled. This research suggests 5 regulations for the blind examinee which covers the test time, supervisor, place and request of the examinee. These refer to the regulation for the disable in the other tests, such as the college scholarship ability test, TOEFL, TEPS, and a civil service exam.

  • Background and Objectives: Top-down restoration of distorted speech, tapped as phonemic restoration of speech in noise, maybe a useful tool to understand robustness of perception in adverse listening situations. However, the relationship between phonemic restoration and speech perception in noise is not empirically clear. Subjects and Methods: 20 adults (40-55 years) with normal audiometric findings were part of the study. Sentence perception in noise performance was studied with various signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) to estimate the SNR with 50% score. Performance was also measured for sentences interrupted with silence and for those interrupted by speech noise at -10, -5, 0, and 5 dB SNRs. The performance score in the noise interruption condition was subtracted by quiet interruption condition to determine the phonemic restoration magnitude. Results: Fairly robust improvements in speech intelligibility was found when the sentences were interrupted with speech noise instead of silence. Improvement with increasing noise levels was non-monotonic and reached a maximum at -10 dB SNR. Significant correlation between speech perception in noise performance and phonemic restoration of sentences interrupted with -10 dB SNR speech noise was found. Conclusions: It is possible that perception of speech in noise is associated with top-down processing of speech, tapped as phonemic restoration of interrupted speech. More research with a larger sample size is indicated since the restoration is affected by the type of speech material and noise used, age, working memory, and linguistic proficiency, and has a large individual variability.

  • 본 연구는 교사의 생애주기 속에서 초등학교 초임교사의 특징을 탐구하고 그 특징에 따른 해결전략을 제시하는 데 있다. 이로 인해 초임교사가 교직에 잘 적응할 수 있도록 도와줌으로써 교육의 질을 높이고 신규교사 스스로가 초임교사 기간 동안 좋은 교사로 성장할 수 있는 준비기로 받아들일 수 있도록 도와주는 것이 이 연구의 목적이다. 초임교사가 학교에서 맺는 인간관계에 대한 어려움은 크게 관리자와 동료교사와의 관계, 학부모와의 관계, 학생과의 관계 3가지로 나뉠 수 있다. 학교의 통일문화와 그 문화를 강요하는 관리자와 동료교사는 초임교사를 힘들게 할 수 있으며 또, 초임교사가 첫 학교에서 어떤 동료교사를 만나느냐에 따라 초임교사의 성장에 큰 영향을 준다. 초임교사들은 학급경영경험이 적으며, 학생을 다루는 기술이 부족하여 교실에서 학생들을 통제하는 데 어려움을 겪으며, 초임교사 기간 동안 교실 안에서 일어나는 여러 가지 문제를 해결하는 과정 속에서 숙련된 교사로서 성장해 나간다. 뿐만아니라 자신을 초보자로 대하는 학부모의 태도에서 초임교사는 어려움을 겪고 자신감을 잃기도 하며 학부모의 태도에 따라서 학생상담이나 지도에 영향을 받기도 한다. 이러한 교육주체들과의 문제 속에서 초임교사들이 주로 해결하는 전략은 모방하기, 경청과 수용, 합리화하기, 포기하기이다. 초임교사의 이러한 어려움을 해결하기 위해서는 초임교사 연수 중에 초임교사의 어려움과 해결방안에 대하여 이야기할 수 있는 공간과 시간이 필요하며 학교 내에서 멘토링제도를 활성화 할 필요가 있다. 마지막으로 교육지원청에서는 초임교사에 관한 질적연구를 지속적으로 진행하여 사례집을 발간하여 초임교사들에게 실질적인 도움이 되도록 해야 한다.
