  • E-learning is a new teaching model nowadays, and Virtual Reality (VR) technology is reported that the use of virtual reality as an education tool can increase student interests, understanding, and creative learning because of encouraging students to learn by exploring and interacting with the information on the virtual environment. Besides that, LEGOs have long been the favorite of many children. LEGOs provide a mechanism to understand and do for many concepts from spatial relationships to robotics platforms. In this paper, we present a virtual reality application based on the assembly of LEGO-Like bricks to increase math and science learning by improving spatial thinking. It not only encourages students to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics but also enhances learner's ability to analyze and solve problems. The application is built by Processing 2.0 as the easier programming language which is a top-down approach to build the 3D interactive program.

  • This study is intended to identify various reasons on the 'body' of women described in the paintings by Le Corbusier. As a great artist in the field of modern architecture, various figures of 'body' of women he painted were not a mere physiological body of a woman but a meaningful figure combined with many different types of concept in the social and cultural context. In the field of art, body is recently seen as a 'tool for thinking' that studies dealing with it are being actively conducted. Seen in this context, it is feasible to read the situations and causes at that time through movement and changes in the figure of women's bodies described in his painting. Even if it was a speculative inference, this study aimed examining what reasons and perspective Le Corbusier had when painting women's bodies and what message he intended to convey. Reasons on the 'bodies' of women derived in this study serve as an essence of mentality in understanding the spatial design that was constructed around the time of period. Adopting a different view from many of previous studies in the aspect of skills and spaces, it was intended to study changes in the complex and integrated causes in both spatial design and painting and re-interpret an essence of mentality of the spatial design in the humanistic approach according to the notions in society and culture.

  • Fashion related with architectural paradigms includes concept of the space utilization beyond fashions field. Such a fashions concept is able to enlarge as a spatial system like architecture. Interface between fashion and architecture is originated in thinking of the rhizome, which understands fashions field within various relationships between environment of the city and fashion. The existing construction systems of fashion is not sufficient in fashions roles as the space that wearing changing body continuously. Consequently, accommodation of architectural paradigms in fashion depends on new recognition about function and space. Architectural paradigms expressed in fashion since 1990s was classified as follows: 1 modular system of Le Corbusier & Archigram, 2 deconstruction, 3 reconstruction, 4 nomadic architecture. Such a paradigms has been easy to combination among fashion and architecture and furniture. Deconstruction and reconstruction fashion revealed process toward completion, and reappeared architectural consideration about process of change toward incompletion. There are acknowledged formative characteristics as follows: mobility, changeability, multi-function, mutual combinative, openness, and fluidity. This study shows that fashion is essential device determined city environment construction in 21C, and revels that fashion has been highlighted as a presage of new spatial economy received architectural construction systems.

  • Popular culture in modem society is that research is to understand the lives of the public. Since post-modem ism, in a clear perspective of the rapidly developing modern society, and the appearance of various societies have been drawn. Of the phenomenon is playing a large role in the admission of the public can see this was: strange places for the properties in the popular culture to analyze and find the meaning makes carry through their own perspective. It also dominates the field of spatial design for the public to understand cultural perspectives and positions should be aware of the importance of thinking. The relationship between spatial design and popular culture, modern society has become an essential point is changed popular culture that has more space, the design characteristics of the new changes will affect their position. In this study, playing a large role in the modern of culture properties, spatial design, looking at areas of social and cultural positions that are clearly focused. Therefore, the cultural phenomenon here in the popular culture of the design characteristics of the space, according to the visual design direction of modern society present in the space is presented.

  • Since the 20th century, there has been a growing interest in the new concept of fractals, a combination of mathematics and art, and the attempt to study the creative spatial aspects of the concept is being made. The purpose of this research is to examine artistic characteristics of fractal dimension and then analyze the types of fractal dimensions expressed in the fashion. Previous literature on fractals and dimension, and visual data on art and fashion collected over the Internet were used for analysis. Fractal dimension refers to the spatial concept of structural dimension of geometrical self-similarity. An analysis of the types of fractals seen in fashion revealed spatial expansion, the repetition in continual figures, superposition accordant to different sizes, and shades of different shapes. The aesthetic characteristics of fractal dimension appearing in fashions were examined based on analyses of fractal dimension types; the inherent characteristics of self-similarity, superimposition, and atypicality were found. Results obtained from this study are expected to be used as basic materials for the application of the design of fractal dimension into various perspectives of fashion.

  • In recent years, the cultural industry is considered to a major industry in the 21 century, and performing culture is growing rapidly in Korea. Also, rapid development in terms of quality and quantity can be found in the diversification of usage, a trend focusing on the space for performance, and an emphasis on the accessibility between the stage and auditorium. In addition, active research is being conducted on the performing arts facilities, a relationship between the stage and auditorium, and a space programfor each space considering users. However, most of the current studies are conducted byviewing the facilities in a two-dimensional space. Similar to other cultural facilities, such as museums and galleries, performing arts facilities have been planned in the thinking that the ratio of capacity increases in proportion to the area. Considering a dimensional capacity in the spatial composition of performing arts facilities is important, but it has been ignored until now. Therefore, in order to analyze performing arts facilities in the three dimensional approach, this study is conducted centering on the actual capacity and provides basic data that can be used for planning a construction of future performing arts facilities.

  • In this study, the relationships among students' conceptual understanding of molecular structure and cognitive variables were investigated for 165 high school students. After they had learned 'High School Chemistry II' for two semesters, the tests of conception concerning molecular structure, spatial visualization ability, logical thinking ability, mental capacity, and learning approach were administered. The results indicated that students' conceptual understanding of molecular structure was not sound, and several misconceptions were found. The scores of the conception test were significantly correlated with all the cognitive variables studied. Multiple regression analyses were conducted to examine the predictive influences of students' cognitive variables on their conceptual understanding. Meaningful learning approach was the most significant predictor and were followed by logical thinking ability, rote learning approach, and mental capacity. However, spatial visualization ability did not have the predictive power.

  • Cadastral spatial information closely related to ownership of people is potentially very valuable information. As 3D cadastre has been actively discussed to reflect realistic living territory and legal relationship in recent years, it is highly expected to be created added value before long using that information. However, in aspect of visualization that performs an important function for decision making by facilitating intuitive thinking about spatial information, systematic solution has not been suggested to visualize the cadastral spatial information on a map with existing 3D spatial information. For that reason, in this paper, visualization method was proposed to integrate the cadastral spatial information with the existing information effectively. Requirements for 3D cadastral spatial information system were drawn based on literature review, and then specific visualization method was established by constructing user scenarios. Research results of this paper are highly expected to be applied to the integration work with the existing 3D information on a spatial information open platform.

  • Mathematics is considered to the beginning of designing thinking because of the sense of logical order system. In this study, it was regarded the mathematics as the logic and the measurement of design system. as is often the case in history, mathematics, it is regard as conceptual model of architectural though, as aesthetic proportional measure and the mirror of thought. The direction of this study is rather multi-sided approaching to the spatial concept than one-sided plane. It is multi-acceptable way to apply mathematical principle to the pace and to be a flexible one. And boundary of interpretation of the flexibility means potential use-ability, and the strictly meaning of flexibility means that the acception of the various Secession and the Change of space. And the various interpretation of the flexibility only can expressed in the relation of opposite concept: the assembly and the disassembly, the expand and the decease, the open and the close and the construct and the de-construct. Mathematics provide the resonable way in architectural thinking and endow the order as logical organizatiov. Regarding these facts, this research is for making it possible to consider the expression property of interior space combination as the way of understanding the accepting of the changes of the times with the mathematical induction, using the rational method like the mathematical arrangement organizatiov.
