이질적으로 구성된 소집단 협동학습에서의 내적 과정을 이해하기 위해서 이 연구에서는 과학 수업에서의 협동학습 과정에서 나타나는 성취 수준별 상호작용 양상을 조사하였다. 성취 수준별 언어적 행동의 빈도를 비교하여 언어적 상호작용에의 참여 정도 및 방식을 조사하였다. 그리고 상호작용에 대한 학생들의 인식을 조사하여 성취 수준에 따른 상호작용 양상도 분석하였다. 조사 결과, 상위와 중위 학생 사이에는 언어적 행동의 빈도에 차이가 없었으며, 소집단의 언어적 상호작용은 상위와 중위 학생이 서로 협력하여 공동으로 의미를 구성해나가는 방식으로 일어났다. 상위와 중위 학생 사이의 활발한 상호작용은 학생들의 인식 조사를 통해서도 확인되었다. 즉, 과학수업에서의 협동학습 과정에서는 중위 학생도 적극적이고 활발하게 소집단 활동에 참여하고 있었다.

해결자 청취자 활동에서의 소집단 문제해결 과정을 조사하였다. 고등학교 화학 수업 시간에 두 학급을 선정하여 문제해결 전략을 사용하여 해결자 청취자 활동을 하는 집단(St-SL)과 전략을 사용하지 않는 집단(SL)으로 무선 배치한 후, 소집단 활동 과정을 녹화/녹음하였다. 해결자와 청취자의 언어적 행동을 4단계 문제해결 단계에 따라 분석하고, 각 단계별 수행 수준을 조사하였다. 이해 단계에서는 St-SL 집단의 해결자가 문제의 조건이나 구해야 할 것을 파악하는 과정에 대해, 청취자가 단순히 동의하는 행동이 많이 나타났다. 계획 단계 중 관련된 법칙 회상에 대해서는 St-SL 집단의 청취자가 질문, 지적하고 이를 토대로 해결자가 수정하는 행동이 많이 나타났는데, 이러한 언어적 상호작용이 학생들이 올바른 법칙을 사용하여 물리량을 유도해내는 데에 긍정적인 영향을 준 것으로 파악된다. SL 집단과 St-SL 집단 모두 하위 목표를 설정하는 것에 관한 언어적 상호작용은 별로 나타나지 않았고, 이를 제대로 수행한 경우도 별로 없었다. 검토 단계에서 SL 집단의 경우 상호작용이 전혀 나타나지 않았고, St-SL 집단에서는 해결자가 청취자의 동의를 구하는 행동이 많이 나타났다. 그러나 이러한 상호작용을 통해서도 답의 의미를 분자 수준에서 설명하는 전략에 대해서 바르게 수행하는 경우는 거의 없었다. 인식 검사에서는 학생들이 문제해결에 가장 많은 도움을 준 단계는 이해 단계이고, 계획이나 검토 단계는 적용하기 어려운 것으로 응답하였다.

This study developed an integrative curriculum design plan for Home Economics through a deliberation method. This study established a research framework to integrate the deliberation models of Schwab, Walker, and Reid that inherited the intellectual tradition of curriculum deliberation along with the practical reasoning process of Brown and Paolucci from a critical science perspective. The practical research problem was formulated as "What should be done to develop a Home Economics integrative curriculum?" To address this practical research problem, deliberation with deliberators of each small, medium, and large groups was processed for the development of integrative curriculum design plans. An initial proposal was developed from small group deliberation processes. An initial proposal was examined and an alternative plan was developed from medium group deliberation processes. An alternative plan and its consequence were re-examined from large group deliberation processes. The authors finalized a proposal organized on four valued ends of self-formation, intersubjectivity, social action, and life skills. A practical problem focused integrative curriculum was developed and proposed to pursue the four valued ends. The suggested final practical problem focused curriculum demonstrates the power of Home Economics to contribute to the advancement of individuals, families, and society as well as the practical empowerment of students.

This paper presents an analysis of the impact of the causal looping method to the Korean middle managers' decision-making processes. The sample included the observations of decisions made by 70 groups with 5 to 7 members each. The results showed that the causal looping method was a strong device to help Korean managers followed value-focused decision processes, as opposite to alternative-focuses ones. The lessons from this study suggest a direction for the development of the education method to improve group decision-making processes.

This paper presents an analysis of Korean middle managers' decision-making processes. The sample included the observations of decisions made by 17 groups with 5 to 7 members each. The 5 hour-long, in average, decision processes were analysed by a modified system of Fisher's(1970) Interaction Process Analysis. The results showed that Korean managers followed alternative-focused decision processes, as opposite to value-focused ones. That is, the decision-making groups showed a strong trend to elaborate on alternative generation and evaluation right after the situation analysis. They tended to discuss the objectives of decision and relevant criteria only to resolve conflicts arisen during the evaluation process of alternatives. The analysis also showed that a decision proposition was more frequently followed by negative responses than positive ones and by interpretative evaluations than substantiative ones. The lessons from this study suggest a direction for the development of group decision support systems tailored for Korean cultural characteristics. This study is also meaningful as the first observation and empirical analysis of Korean middle managers' decision-making processes.

One stream of the GDSS(Group Decision Support System) research is to investigate how GDSS affects decision performances of small groups according to task types, support features, meeting facilitation modes and meeting environments. But little study has investigated the effects of group member characteristics on group decision processes and outcomes depending upon whether GDSS is provided or not. To date, most GDSS studies have not controlled group member characteristics(e,g. personality, sex, decision style) in laboratory experiments. However, this study included the decision styles of group members as an independent variable. Therefore, this study investigated how differently members of two different decision styles perceive the use of GDSS in small group meetings through lab experiments. The two decision styles are feeling(F) style and thinking(T) style. We found that the effect of GDSS is a function of individual's decision style only in the communication thoroughness variable. The decision style is a statistically significant factor that can mediate the effects of the group support technology on the perceived communication thoroughness. Specifically, the GDSS is positively related to participants' perception about satisfaction on decision process, goal achievement, communication thoroughness, degree of influence-outward and effort for achieving meeting goals.

Purpose: This study investigates patterns of small group interaction and examines the influence among graduate nursing students of online collaborative learning strategies on small group interaction patterns, task performance and learning attitude in web-based team learning environments. Method: To analyze patterns of small group interaction, group discussion dialogues were reviewed by two instructors. Groups were divided into two categories depending on the type of feedback given (passive or active). For task performance, evaluation of learning processes and numbers of postings were examined. Learning attitude toward group study and coursework were measured via scales. Results: Explorative interactions were still low among graduate nursing students. Among the students given active feedback, considerable individual variability in interaction frequency was revealed and some students did not show any specific type of interaction pattern. Whether given active or passive feedback, groups exhibited no significant differences in terms of task performance and learning attitude. Also, frequent group interaction was significantly related to greater task performance. Conclusion: Active feedback strategies should be modified to improve task performance and learning attitude among graduate nursing students.
