The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of introducing the history of science in modern Korea into elementary education. Although there are many studies on applying a history of science to science education, they do not pay attention to the history of science in modern Korea. I survey research papers on the history of science in modern Korea and science education based on a history of science, and elementary science textbooks in Korea, Japan and the US. When we apply the history of science in modern Korea into elementary education, elementary students will recognize science has close relations to Korean culture and history and they will develop the familiarity with science. I show there are 3 ways using the history of science in modern Korea in elementary education: 1) Applying Korean scientists' research contents to science education, 2) Measures to evaluate Korean scientists correctly, 3) Materials for science education programs for gifted elementary students.

Science has developed along with human society and history. In today's society ruled by pluralism, an educational approach using the historical materials which represent their own cultures will make science education more effective. The purpose of this study was to search for the meaning of science education related with a history of science, and to suggest the possibility for science education based on Korean history of science. The conclusions of this study is below: (1) The history of science is useful to teaching science in K-12 setting. That is because it was helpful to make a scientific concept and to invite student's interest about learning science. Moreover, it was most suitable to teach the nature of science as well as the relation between science and society. (2) A model which consists of 15 types of science education materials using Korean history was suggested. This model plays a potential role as a R&D framework of developing teaching & learning materials based on the history of Korean Science.

The purpose of this study is to explore characteristics of on-line teaching materials on websites of natural history museums, particularly with regard to educational perspectives and the nature of science. The target resources were selected from the websites of the Natural History Museum in London, the Australian Museum in Sydney, the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago, and the Smithsonian Museum in Washington D.C.. A total of twelve on-line resources from these museums used in this study were selected as representative informal science teaching materials. For the investigation, this study developed a checklist with a total of nine items that were grounded on mostly reviewing previous literature and articles focusing on educational perspectives of natural history museums and science centers. Exciting and positive results were found in all four museums. The analyses, however, indicated weaknesses as well as strengths in on-line resources regarding their usages as informal science teaching venues.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a teaching-learning program using the history of science on elementary school students' academic achievement, science attitude, and science process skill. Subjects were 72 students of two groups in the 5th Grade. A experimental group of 36 was instructed 10 lessons in unit of 'our body' using the history of science. The history of science materials used in this program included 4 explicit method, which are Eii, Eij, Eik and Ea type, and 1 implicit method which is I type. The contents validity of this program was reviewed by the science education specialists. The results of the study were as follows: Students of experimental group showed statistically more significant increase in academic achievement and science attitude than control group students. However, there was no significant difference on science process skill between the instruction by applying a teaching-learning program using the history of science and the traditional instruction. Since this program using the history of science is effective for the attitude improvement of elementary school students as well as academic achievement, it is highly likely to be used as the science education material for students with the low affective area.

This project was carried out under the assumption that applying a science history program to a teaching-learning process would lead to students' increased interest in science and increase the development of their scientific process skills. The project aimed at designing an effective science history program which would help to improve students' scientific process skills, to enhance their interest in learning science, and to maintain their inquiry learning abilities. The survey for the activity objectives was produced by the authors. The test items used for testing students' scientific attitude and scientific process skills were created by Korea National University of Education. The survey about scientific perception indicated that there was a meaningful difference of p=0.005 before and after implementing this program. The survey about scientific interest shows that students became interested in science, science-learning and science-related activities after participating in the science history program. Students' scientific process sills increased by 9% after the program was implemented in the subjects' classes. This indicates that the science history program was effective in improving students' science scientific process skills. Since this project, which targeted 8th grade science education activities, has proven to be effective, developing other programs suitable for younger and older students seems promising, too.

The purposes of this study were to explore what components of science communication and its level are contained in text panels of exhibitions in natural history museums and to propose its development direction of exhibition education in Korea. First, to find out the component and level of science communication contained in exhibition panels, the researcher team developed the analyzing tool which was called SEPAT (Science Exhibition Panel Analyzing Tool), then employed them to profile the component and level of science communication. Second, the researchers introduced the exemplary designed media of exhibitions to demonstrate how much science communication could be enhanced. The results were made as follows. First, the components of science communication was considerably weighted toward to 'concept' one. There were also a few 'awareness' and 'engagement', both of which were under 5% in each zone of exhibition and there was not 'NOSI' or 'opinion' embedded in the analyzed exhibitions. Second, the various type of designing exhibitions were found to promote or enhance the restrictedly represented components of science communication. It is suggestable for exhibitions to be designed through various type of 'media' to enhance science communication. Visitors are required to experience rich science communication to meet their educational needs, and exhibition developers in natural history museums and other museums are recommended to be professional in containing all components of science communication through various type of designing exhibitions.

이 연구의 목적은 고등학생들의 2015 개정 과학과 교육과정 진로선택 교과목인 '과학사' 과목과 과학과 역사의 관계에 대한 인식을 탐색하는 것이다. 또한 이 연구는 실제 과학사 수업을 경험하기 이전과 이후의 이 인식의 변화를 계열별로 비교하였다. 이를 위하여 고등학생 265명이 그린 과학사와 과학, 역사와의 관계를 표현한 벤다이어그램 도형 자료를 수집하고, 이에 대한 설명 텍스트를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료들은 귀납적으로 범주화하여 최종적으로 범주화하였다. 벤다이어그램 자료를 분석한 결과 '과학과 역사의 만남으로서의 과학사', '독립영역으로서의 과학사', '역사의 일부로서의 과학사', '과학의 일부로서의 과학사', '모두를 아우르는 과학사'의 5가지의 다양한 관계범주 유형을 발견할 수 있었다. 또한 각 유형들마다 다양한 세부유형들이 존재함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 과학사 수업 경험 이전에는 많은 학생들이 과학사를 과학 과목과 역사 과목의 교집합으로 여기는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 과목 경험 후에는 인문계 학생들과 자연계 학생들의 관계인식변화는 서로 달라졌다. 인문계 학생들의 경우에는 과학사 과목이 역사과목의 일종이라고 여기는 인식이 더 증가했고, 자연계 학생들의 경우는 과학의 일종이라고 여기는 인식이 더 증가했다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 토대로 과학사 교육이 기존에 자신이 속한 계열 내에서 익숙하게 배우는 기존의 교과들과는 다른 새로운 관점을 경험할 수 있는 과학사 교수-학습이 실현되어야 할 것임을 제언하였다.

This study is to enquire about ideals on combustion and to propose of teaching program using the history a science in '5. Combustion and Extinguishing' unit of elementary school science textbook in 6th grade. For this purpose, investigation questionnaires based on preceding research and science textbook are developed. The reliability of the questionnaires is .784, and the questionnaires are applied to 247 students in T elementary school in Busan. Through the results of the investigation, scientific conceptions existed in some parts. But some misconceptions still existed especially (question 1), substance's changes (question 7), formation process of product (question 13), combustibles among requirements of combustion. The patterns of the misconception are similar to historical misconceptions about combustion. Besides, the discoveries and inventions of combustion have some points about correcting misconceptions. Thus the five step teaching programs on combustion which were applied to history of the science are suggested. The confidence of the developed programs was verified as being 'excellent' by specialists. This program will be applied to think deeply about combustion in elementary school lesson and useful to introduce the history of science.
