  • The purpose of this study was to develop elementary students' ability to generate hypothesis knowledge through knowledge generation learning in science. The learning program consisted of a series of 28 activities to generate hypotheses in science. Eighty 6th grade students participated in the study and were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group was administered a program geared towards hypothesis generation learning and the control group was administered a program aimed at hypothesis expository learning in elementary science. After using the respective programs, subjects in both groups were tested in terms of their abilities in abductive knowledge generation and administered a descriptive self-report regarding their generation of hypotheses. Two of the 28 activity program worksheets in the experimental group were analyzed in terms of the quality and process of students' hypothesis generation. The results were as follows: 1) The experimental group showed significantly higher scores in terms of scientific knowledge generation (i.e. abductive knowledge generation) than the control group. 2) The degree of hypothesis explanation in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group in terms of the quality of the generated hypotheses. In addition, students in the experimental group generated more varied and valid knowledge than the control group in terms of sub-knowledge of hypothesis generation. Therefore, it can be argued that this program for hypothesis knowledge generation in elementary science students was effective in the generation of hypothesis knowledge.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop a spider inquiry program for elementary school students based on the scientific-knowledge generating model. For the purposes of this study, we selected three species of snider (e.g. Pardosa astrigera, Argiope bruennichii, Nephila clavata) which were easily found in a school garden by elementary school students. The spider inquiry program was based on a model of the process of scientific-knowledge generation, and consisted of two sections: for students and teachers. The students' program was designed to generate scientific-knowledge, whilst the teachers' program was designed to guide the inquiry smoothly even in the case of teachers who lack experience in inquiry activities or possess limited subject knowledge on spiders. As a result, this program was found to have an influence on generating the scientific-knowledge of elementary students and the results further suggest that it may be helpful to teachers conducting an inquiry activity. Additionally, this program could be used as a selective activity lesson such as a science inquiry lesson, or as a biology inquiry class, as a weekend life experience study or as an activity on a science camp.

  • The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between pre-service elementary teacher's prior knowledge and processes of observations and hypotheses generation via analysis of descriptive fault patterns during observation, problem generation and hypotheses generation processes. For the purpose of this study, thirty-four undergraduate students were participated and descriptions of participants' responds were analyzed. As the result, four patterns of descriptive fault on the process of generating hypothesis were classified; 1) descriptive fault from the causalities, 2) descriptive fault from repetition of observational facts, 3) descriptive fault from the priority of prior knowledge, and 4) descriptive fault from negation of the observational facts. From the result, the researcher was able to explore the faults caused by pre-service elementary students' prior knowledge through the observational descriptive analysis with hypothetical descriptive analysis.

  • 이 연구는 영재학생들이 작성한 탐구수행일지에서 나타나는 지식생성과정을 분석한 것이다. 분석한 결과, 첫째, 영재학생들은 다양한 지식생성과정을 보여 주었으나, 귀납적 과정과 귀추적 과정이 대부분이었으며, 그 또한 매우 단순한 사고과정만을 보여주었다. 둘째, 영재학생들의 지식 생성 과정은 제한된 범위의 관찰과 경험 상황을 바탕으로 한 단순 반복적인 도식적 문답 과정이 많으며, 단순 반복적인 도식성은 간단한 변인 선택 및 고안, 제한된 범위의 관찰, 주관적 사고로 인한 편견 개입, 탐색이나 결점 찾기 등이 잘 이루어지지 않아 발생하는 것으로 생각되며 이와 더불어 추론의 비약이 자주 나타났다.

  • The purpose of this study is to develop a program for elementary school students' scientific experimental design knowledge generation. This study also investigated the effects of their experimental design ability, as well as the change in the type and elaborateness of their experimental design by applying the program. The subjects of this study was 4 classes in 6th grade of an elementary school located in Seoul, KOREA. The classes were divided into experimental and comparative groups. While the treatment was applied to the experimental group, the comparative group was taught using conventional methods. The pre-test and post-test for students' capability of building scientific experimental design knowledge were conducted to compare the ability of experimental design, the change in the type and elaborateness of experimental design. The findings in this study are as follows: First, the program appeared to be effective in improving experimental design ability. Furthermore, the program appeared to be more effective in generating a higher level of the experimental design type and elaborateness. Therefore, in order to improve experimental design knowledge generation ability, the program can be utilized as effective learning model in elementary school.

  • Ever since the dawn of civilization, the ambient vegetation and the resources constituted major source of human existence for various substantial requirements. Our present knowledge on plant resources emerged from the traditional heritable knowledge descended from generation to generation. However, traditional knowledge pertaining to several aspects remained untapped from various remote localities or populations. Furthermore, with the present trends of excessive exploitation of natural resources and degradation of habitats, conservation and ecological management require coherence of traditional skills and modern approaches. Therefore, the present study is to record traditional plant based knowledge among the inhabitants of Siwalik region of Uttarakhand Himalaya. Extensive field survey was made for the collection of data on the medicinal aspects of plant species in the study area covering the parts of districts Pauri, Dehradun and Haridwar. During the course of study 130 plant species belonging to 65 families are reported, used as traditional medicine by the local inhabitants of this region.

  • 이 연구는 초등학교에서 과학적 관찰 전략을 적용한 과학 수업이 관찰지식 생성에 미치는 효과를 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위하여 교육과정 분석을 통해 관찰과 관련된 수업주제를 선정하고, 관찰의 방법과 대상에 따라 체계적인 관찰이 이루어지도록 학습지와 스토리보드를 개발하였다. 이 연구를 위해 초등학교 6학년 학생을 대상으로 실험집단 38명, 통제집단 37명을 선정하였다. 실험집단에는 14차시에 걸쳐 과학적 관찰 전략을 적용한 수업을 실시하였으며, 통제집단에는 실험집단과 동일한 주제와 차시에 걸쳐 전통적 수업을 적용하였다. 실험 집단과 통제 집단 모두 수업처치 전후에 촛불 관찰 과제로 과학적 관찰 전략을 적용한 수업의 효과를 검증하였다. 연구 결과, 과학적 관찰 전략을 적용한 과학 수업이 전통적 수업에 비해 다양한 관찰 지식을 생성하는데 효과적이었다. 생성된 관찰 사실들에 대한 관찰 지식의 수와 다양도 측면에서 학생들의 관찰력을 정량적으로 평가한 결과, 수업 처치 후 실험집단의 관찰지식의 수와 다양도에서 유의미한 차이가 보였다. 또한 절대 관찰력 지수에서도 실험 집단이 통제 집단보다 관찰력 지수가 높아졌음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 과학적 관찰에 대한 체계적인 지도 전략은 학생들의 과학적 관찰 지식 생성력을 향상시키는데 효과적일 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • 이 연구의 목적은 진자 과제에서 학생들의 가설 생성에 있어서 귀추적 추론 능력이 중요한 역할을 한다는 가설을 검증하고자 하는 것이다. 가설을 검증하기 위하여 5학년 학생들을 대상으로 하여 진자 운동에 대한 가설 생성 검사와 진자의 길이에 대한 선지식 검사를 실시하였다. 진자의 길이에 대해 선지식을 가지고 있는 많은 학생들이 그네 과제에 대한 가설 생성에 선지식을 적용하지 못하였다. 이러한 결과는 학생들이 가설 생성에 실패한 이유가 단지 선지식이 없어서가 아니라 오히려 귀추적 추론 능력이 부족한 것과 관련된다. 학생들이 성공적으로 가설 생성을 하기 위해서는 선지식 뿐만 아니라 귀추적 추론능력도 요구된다. 그러므로 이 연구는 가설 생성 과정에 있어서 선지식 이외에도 귀추적 추론 능력이 중요한 역할을 한다는 주장을 지지한다. 이 연구는 학생들의 가설 생성 능력을 계발하기 위해서는 과학 교육에서 과학적 선언적 지식 뿐만 아니라 귀추적 추론 능력에 대한 교육도 함께 제공되어야 함을 시사한다.

  • Data Technology (DT) is a new technology which deals with data collection, data analysis, information generation from data, knowledge generation from modelling and future prediction. DT is a newly emerged interdisciplinary science & technology in this 21st century knowledge society. Even though the main body of DT is applied statistics, it also contains management information system (MIS), quality management, process system analysis and so on. Therefore, it is an interdisciplinary science and technology of statistics, management science, industrial engineering, computer science and social science. In this paper, first of all, the definition of DT is given, and then the effects and the basic properties of DT, the differences between IT and DT, the 6 step process for DT application, and a DT example are provided. Finally, the relationship among DT, e-Statistics and Data Mining is explained, and the direction of DT development is proposed.
