  • This project was carried out under the assumption that applying a science history program to a teaching-learning process would lead to students' increased interest in science and increase the development of their scientific process skills. The project aimed at designing an effective science history program which would help to improve students' scientific process skills, to enhance their interest in learning science, and to maintain their inquiry learning abilities. The survey for the activity objectives was produced by the authors. The test items used for testing students' scientific attitude and scientific process skills were created by Korea National University of Education. The survey about scientific perception indicated that there was a meaningful difference of p=0.005 before and after implementing this program. The survey about scientific interest shows that students became interested in science, science-learning and science-related activities after participating in the science history program. Students' scientific process sills increased by 9% after the program was implemented in the subjects' classes. This indicates that the science history program was effective in improving students' science scientific process skills. Since this project, which targeted 8th grade science education activities, has proven to be effective, developing other programs suitable for younger and older students seems promising, too.

  • Diabetes is mainly evaluated by fasting blood sugar. The genetic and environmental factors influence the development of type 2 diabetes. In this study, the relationship between diabetes and family history of diabetes in Koreans was analyzed in consideration of body mass index and age. The study subjects were 4,274 subjects who received a medical examination at a university hospital. The main statistical analysis method was multiple logistic regression analysis. In addition, subjects were analyzed by dividing them by gender and the median of age and body mass index. Diabetes prevalence was 8.9% of all subjects, and subjects with a family history of diabetes were 14.5%. The risk of diabetes was 2.80 times higher in subjects with a family history of diabetes than subjects without a family history of diabetes. In addition, in younger subjects, the risk of diabetes was 3.36 times higher in subjects with a family history of diabetes compared with subjects without a family history of diabetes. In this study, the family history of diabetes was significantly associated with diabetes. The relationship between family history of diabetes and diabetes was slightly higher in the younger group than in the older group. In order to obtain an accurate assessment of the association between diabetes and family history of diabetes, further prospective cohort study in the future is necessary.

  • This survey is the first part of the history of science of Song and Yuan dynasties and covers the period starting from Song to Jin. The major science in the Song period consists of calendrical astronomy, mathematics and medicine, and mathematics is also related to water supply technology. In this survey we follow Yabuuchi's work on the history of science of Song and Yuan period and Du Shiran's work on the history of science of China. We will try first to see how academic science flourished in the Northern Song, what caused the public science to prevail in the Southern Song, and then how the academic trend continued in Jin. We will continue to cover the Jin-Yuan period in the ensuing survey.

  • 이 연구에서는 과학사를 활용한 교수-학습 자료를 개발하고 교육 현장에 적용하여 과학 학업 성취도와 과학과 관련된 태도에 미치는 효과를 중학생의 성취수준에 따라 조사하였다. 여중생 3학년 4개 학급을 대상으로 실험 집단에서 대하여 과학사 활용 수업, 통제 집단에 대하여 전통적인 수업을 실시하였다. 과학사 활용 수업에서는 필수 학습요소와 관련된 과학사를 다양한 방법으로 학생들에게 소개하여, 학습자의 흥미와 STS인식을 유도하였다. 과학사 활용 수업은 전통적인 수업에 비하여 학생들의 과학 학업 성취도와 태도 향상에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 과학사 활용수업은 과학 학업 성취도에서는 상위권에게 유의미한 효과가 나타났으며, 과학과 관련된 태도에서는 상, 중위권에서 긍정적인 효과를 보였다. 이와 관련하여 학습자의 수준을 고려한 교수-학습 자료와 수업 모형 개발은 과학사 활용 수업에 도움을 줄 수 있다.

  • The purpose of this study is to explore characteristics of on-line teaching materials on websites of natural history museums, particularly with regard to educational perspectives and the nature of science. The target resources were selected from the websites of the Natural History Museum in London, the Australian Museum in Sydney, the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, and the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C.. A total of twelve on-line resources from these museums used in this study were selected as representative informal science teaching materials. For the investigation, this study developed a checklist with a total of nine items that were grounded on mostly reviewing previous literature and articles focusing on educational perspectives of natural history museums and science centers. Exciting and positive results were found in all four museums. The analyses, however, indicated weaknesses as well as strengths in on-line resources regarding their usages as informal science teaching venues.

  • This survey is the second part of the history of science of Song and Yuan dynasties and will covers the period from Jin to Yuan. Following the first part, we look at the calendrical astronomy, mathematics and medicine. In this survey we again follow Yabuuchi's work on the history of science of Song and Yuan period and Du Shiran's work on the history of science of China. We start from the sciences and mathematics of Jin which inherited those of Northern Song and see how they influenced the whole China including Yuan and Southern Song. As a conclusion the tendency to practical usages in the Southern Song as well as the suppression of Han people in Yuan prevented developments of theoretical sciences in Yuan and Ming later.

  • 오랜 기간 과학사 과학철학은 과학교육 분야에서 다양한 목적을 위해 중요성이 강조되어왔다. 특히 새로운 2015 개정 교육과정에는 '과학사' 교과가 교육과정 내에 별도의 교과목으로 편성되었으므로 학교 교육 상황에서 과학사 과학철학 내용을 다양하게 활용할 수 있는 방안을 모색할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 문제기반학습 프로그램에서 과학사 과학철학 기반 융합 문제를 해결한 대학생들의 사례를 살펴보았다. 특히 이공계열 학생들과 인문사회계열 학생들의 문제 구조화 과정과 해결 경험의 의미를 비교함으로써 문 이과 통합 교육을 위한 전략을 모색해보았다. 연구참여자는 각각 3명의 이공계열과 인문사회계열 대학생들이며, 이들은 한 학기 동안 대학의 문제기반학습 프로그램에 참여하여 과학사 과학철학 분야의 내용 기반의 융합 문제를 구성하고 해결하는 활동을 했다. 참여자들이 활동하는 동안 작성한 신청서, 계획서, 포스터, 보고서를 살펴보고, 두 차례의 면담을 통해 그들의 사례를 분석했다. 연구결과는 우선 이공계열 학생과 인문사회계열 학생들의 과학사 과학철학에 대한 관점을 파악하고, 이들과 융합할 소재를 선정한 이유와 이후에 융합 문제가 구조화되는 과정에 초점을 두었다. 그리고 과학사 과학철학 내용을 기반으로 자신들이 직접 구성한 융합 문제를 해결해본 경험이 참여자들에게 어떤 의미로 다가왔는지 살펴보았다. 끝으로 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 과학사 과학철학이 과학교육 맥락에서, 그리고 문 이과 통합 교육의 맥락에서 제공하는 몇 가지 시사점을 제시하였다.

  • The purpose of the study was to determine if there was a difference in the Functional Ambulation Performance score of senior adults with or without a history of falls during walking at a preferred velocity. Twelve subjects with a history of falling (mean age=73.8) and eight subjects with no history of falling (mean age=70.4) participated in the study. Temporal and spatial parameters of gait were analyzed using the computerized GAITRite system. The GAITRite system integrates specific components of locomotion to provide a single, numerical representation of gait, the Functional Ambulation Performance score. The Functional Ambulation Performance score is a Quantitative means of assessing gait based on specific temporal and spatial parameters. Statistical analysis of the two groups demonstrated a significant decrease in Functional Ambulation Performance score for those with a history of falls. They had lower values for step/extremity ratios, mean normalized velocity, and greater values for step times, percent in double support. These results indicate that the GAITRite system can be useful in detecting footfall patterns and selected time and distance measurements of persons with a history of falls and the Functional Ambulation Performance score can be used as indicators of gait performance for senior adults with a history of falls.
