The purpose of this study was to develop instructional programs aimed at enhancing middle school students' understanding of evolutionary concepts using a step-by-step writing strategies and an applicable evaluation rubric for evolutionary concepts. To achieve this, a step-by-step writing instructional model (PEECE) was devised as a method for scientific writing, and essential evolutionary core concepts were selected considering the middle school curriculum's coverage of biological evolution. Six evolutionary core concepts-variation, inheritance of variation, differential survival and reproduction, microevolution, and macroevolution-were chosen, with each serving as the focus of a lesson in a four-lesson program following the PEECE lesson model. The program was implemented with 16 students in a co-curricular middle school class. Pre- and post-lesson evolutionary concept checklists were administered to diagnose and compare the level of evolutionary concept understanding. Additionally, students' writing materials for each evolutionary core concept were collected, scored using an evolutionary concept evaluation rubric, and thoroughly analyzed. The results indicated that the step-by-step writing strategy effectively enhanced understanding of the six evolutionary core concepts and reduced cognitive biases and misconceptions about evolution. Contrasted with the optional evolution concept test, the descriptive writing activity provided a more tangible insight into students' scientific concepts, biases, and misconceptions, facilitating teachers' assessment of understanding and feedback provision. Moreover, the jointly developed evaluation rubric offered specific scoring criteria, enabling objective assessment without subjective influence, allowing analysis and scoring of students' writing materials across evaluation areas for collecting fundamental data.

The science writing is recognized for useful learning method to boost up scientific thinking for all class course as well as traditional lecture and experiment. Many researches say that science writing is helpful to extend students' science knowledge and scientific attitude. By the way, the researchers thought that science writing can also improve the science process skill if students participate in delicately organized learning program. In this study, we had contrived the teaching & learning strategy of science writing to improve science process skills. The learning program covers all field of Klopfer's process skills with various forms of writing; explaining writing, logical writing, critical writing, and creative writing. The learning program has been developed for 5th grade students in the regular classes in order to enhance science process skills as well as knowledge and scientific attitude. Not to miss any process skill or various kinds of writing, we used 3 dimensional frame. The axes of the frames are science process skills, forms of writing, and science curriculum contents. The students are given the final writing theme at the beginning of each chapter. They drill science process skills step by step during the classes, and have a chance to talk each other before the final writing. They practice writing skills from one sentence to full article by degrees. The effect of the program was examined by students' work and TSPS (Test of Science Process Skill). The result showed that 5th grade students had a meaningful progress in science process skills as well as knowledge and scientific attitude. we could confirm it with examining students' work in the class.

Artificial intelligence education is very important in the 21st century knowledge information society. Even if it is very important to understand artificial intelligence and practice computer programming in computer education in the fourth industrial revolution, but there is no teaching and learning model to understand artificial intelligence and computer programming education. In this paper, the proposed model consists of problem understanding step, data organizing step, artificial intelligence model setting step, programming step, and report writing step. At the program step, students can choose to copy, transform, create, and challenge steps to their level. In this study, the validity of the model was proved by the Delphi evaluation of elementary school teachers. The results of this study provide a good opportunity for elementary school students to practice artificial intelligence programs.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the educational needs of interns and residents in Korean medicine as the first step in developing an education program to improve their research competencies. Methods: A mixed-method design, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods, was used to investigate the educational needs for research competencies among interns and residents working in Korean medicine hospitals nationwide. Data were collected through online surveys and online focus group discussions (FGDs), and processed using descriptive statistical analysis and thematic analysis. The study results were derived by integrating survey data and FGD outcomes. Results: In total, 209 interns and residents participated in the survey, and 11 individuals participated in two rounds of FGDs. The majority of participants felt a lack of systematic education in research and academic writing in postgraduate medical education and highlighted the need for nationally accessible education due to significant disparities in the educational environment across hospitals and specialties. The primary barrier to learning research and academic writing identified by learners was the lack of knowledge, leading to time constraints. Improving learners' research competencies, relationship building, autonomy, and motivation through a support system was deemed crucial. The study also identified diverse learner types and preferred educational topics, indicating a demand for learner-centered education and coaching. Conclusion: This study provides foundational data for designing and developing a program on education on research competencies for interns and residents in Korean medicine and suggests the need for initiatives to strengthen these competencies.

It is suggested the circuit network to analyze the time response of control system. And it is analyzed the interrelation for classical control and modern control by the transfer function and the state equation. Without complicated integration of state transition equation, it is suggested to possible time response by combining the state transition matrix and the transfer function. A source program is coded to display the time response according to the unit-step and the sinusoidal input. Transient response is analyzed in the unit-step input and phase difference between current and voltage is analyzed in sinusoidal input. As writing the suggested contents in transient response or state-space analysis, it is improved the understanding for control engineering and ability for system design.

The primary purpose of this study is to analyze the learning activities of "the Reading a Book per Semester" with the goal of finding ways to collaborate with the school library. "the Reading a Book per Semester" is a program that requires students to read during the timetable-designated "Korean" class instead of encouraging students to read outside of class, as has been the case thus far. The program was designed by 3 parts: reading, sharing, and formulating. However, an analysis of 11 Korean textbooks and 22 approaches to the program showed that the model has shifted to . Under this new model, schools could expand each step in the following ways: utilize the school libraries more as the book search space during the selection process; include writing a reading diary in the reading process; and further encourage students to read outside of the classrooms in the formulating step. If these amendments were to be applied, they would strengthen the educational purpose of the school libraries within schools.
