This study aimed to investigate the changes in learner's scientific conceptual formation and academic achievement after a CoRe-based science lesson. For this study, two classes of the 6th grade of elementary school were divided into an experimental class and a comparison one. The students of the experimental class received CoRe-based science lesson and those of the comparison one received general science lesson. Both of the classes studied 'unit 1. A change in the weather', which is a part of content of 6th grade science text book. The results of this study were as follows. First, in the questions of invisible and abstract phenomena, students had misconceptions based on their experience in real life, or did not understand the fundamental causes of that phenomena. But after receiving lessons respectively, experimental class generally showed at a higher rate of understanding the causes of the phenomena than comparison class. Second, CoRe-based science lesson was more effective to improve students' scientific conceptual formation than the general science lesson. Moreover, when two classes were respectively divided into two groups as high and low-level groups according to their pre-test achievement records, the CoRe-based science lesson was more effective to learners of the high-level groups. Third, CoRe-based science lesson was more effective to enhance students' academic achievements than the general science lesson, especially to learners of the low-level groups.

This study explores how to reconcile science and policy in the wind energy sector by providing a conceptual framework for better understanding evidence-based policymaking (EBPM). Regarding this framework, the core issue is to discover how knowledge is formed over time, and which factors affect this knowledge formation. Comparative cases of wind industry emergence in Spain and Britain are examined. This analysis shows that knowledge formation initially starts in the scientific arena in parallel with its formation in the practical, and is followed by political knowledge formation near the beginning of commercial projects. Regarding knowledge formation, three more comparisons are made between wind industry emergence in Spain and Britain: the different approaches to R&D projects, the different adoptions of supporting measures, and the different ways of coping with public opposition. The factors affecting the comparisons are mainly perceptions of energy supply, nuclear power, environment and science and technology. Communication and unfamiliarity are likely to affect the comparisons in EBPM.

This study has been performed in order to achieve three objectives. They are as follows: To analyze, based on the research literatures, the nature of scientific inquiry ability and the characteristics of its constitutive elements. To identify inquiry skills and techniques essential to such areas as physics, chemistry, biology. and earth science. To develop instructional models and materials for enhancing inquiry ability on the part of high school students. It was found in the study that the scientific inquiry was interpreted in terms of different meanings according to the viewpoint of the person who are interested in the nature of science. The scientific inquiry has been viewed as the process of knowledge formation, scientific method, inquiry process or process skills depending on the epistemological, methodological, educational perspectives, respectively. It was also identified that certain kind of skills or techniques would be used for inquiry in only one specific area of the science. This study drew a conclusion based on the findings that the skills and techniques will effectively be learned when those are taught with specific knowledge in each area of the science. Reported in this paper are the materials developed, for fostering scienctific inquiry skills on the part of the high school students. The materials were developed, using two themes of a theoretical-abstract chemistry topic and a conceptual-concrete biology topic. Those materals were designed for an experiment and an observation, respectively.

This study researched the concepts that elementary school students have after having learned volcano and earthquake. The reacher collected and adjusted the journals related to this study, and sampled the concepts included in Chap. One "Moving Earth", the first term of the elementary school sixth year. The students' descriptive responses were analyzed after subjective questions on the basis of above were developed and put into. After the contents described in the answer sheets were categorized by key words and the types of concept were made out by qualitative analysis, it was showed what was differences between the sexual, regional and achievement levels. The results of this study were as follows; first, though the types of concept about volcano and earthquake were found variably, it was showed that wrong preconception was not corrected, especially the exact understanding about terms not attained to, which led to the trouble in conceptual readjustment of students. Second, though the response rate about the types of scientific concept was found high that volcano was made out of explosion and eruption of magma and lava, there were also children who described not the interior factor of globe but the surface factor. Third, according to the results divided into the interior factor of globe and the surface factor and analyzed about earthquake, there were a great number of children who responded as the surface factor though most of the students responded to the interior factor of globe. Fourth, through some types of concept, it was found that the formation of concept was much influenced by experience of children's life, curriculum, and the method of study. Fifth, In the most test question, the scientific concept was found that boys were higher than girls in the distinction of sex, the children of cities than those of town and island, and the upper group than the lower group in the achievement levels.

과학적 모형은 특정한 물리적 현상을 기술, 설명, 예측할 수 있는 개념 체계를 말한다. 과학적 모형의 사회적 구성 수업은 과학교육 분야에서 새로운 교수 학습 전략으로 주목받고 있으며 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 모형을 통한 예상과 실제 세계에서 얻은 자료와의 일치, 불일치에 따라 모형의 적합성을 판단하고 모형을 수정해 가는 것이 모형 구성 수업의 핵심이다. 하지만 많은 모형 구성 수업에서는 교사가 제공한 제한적인 자료를 가지고 모형을 비교하고 판단하는 것에 그쳤으며, 스스로 실험을 통해 얻은 실제 세계에 대한 자료를 가지고 모형의 적합성을 판단할 수 있는 기회를 제공하는 수업은 많지 않았다. 이에 본 연구에서는 실험을 통해 얻은 결과를 모형을 통한 예측과 직접 비교하여 모형을 평가할 수 있는 과학적 모형의 사회적 구성 프로그램을 제시하고자 하였다. 6개월간 교사, 연구자 간의 협력적 논의를 통해 중학교 2학년 빛과 파동 단원 중 '볼록렌즈가 상을 만드는 원리'라는 주제에 대해 총 5차시의 모형 구성 프로그램을 개발하였다. 경기도 남녀 공학 중학교 2학년 3개 반 80명의 일반 학생과 20년 경력의 현직 과학 교사가 2주간 개발된 프로그램에 함께 참여하였으며, 학생들에게 수업의 어떤 점이 좋거나 어려웠는지, 이 수업을 친구에게 추천하고 싶은지를 질문하였다. 수업 후 95.8%의 학생이 구조 규칙을 사용한 모형 이상의 과학적 모형을 구성하였다. 학생들의 응답을 살펴보면 원리를 찾아내거나 친구들을 이해시키기가 어려웠지만 이론으로 이해하기 어려웠던 것을 실험을 통한 모형 수정 과정을 통해 이해하게 되었고, 학급 친구들끼리 경쟁자가 아닌 동반자가 된다는 점이 좋았다는 등의 응답이 나타났다. 참여 학생 중 92.5%가 본 프로그램을 보통이상으로 친구에게 추천하겠다고 응답하였다. 개발된 프로그램은 학교현장에 적용되어 학생의 모형 구성 능력 및 사회적 구성 능력의 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대한다.
