  • One of the characteristics of modem mathematics is to use algebra in every fields of mathematics. But we don't have the exact definition of algebra, and we can't clearly define algebraic thinking. In order to solve this problem, this paper investigate the history of algebra. First, we describe some of the features of proportional Babylonian thinking by analysing some problems. In chapter 4, we consider Greek's analytical method and proportional theory. And in chapter 5, we deal with Diophantus' algebraic method by giving an overview of Arithmetica. Finally we investigate Viete's thinking of algebra through his ‘the analytical art’. By investigating these history of algebra, we reach the following conclusions. 1. The origin of algebra comes from problem solving(various equations). 2. The origin of algebraic thinking is the proportional thinking and the analytical thinking. 3. The thing that plays an important role in transition from arithmetical thinking to algebraic thinking is Babylonian ‘the false value’ idea and Diophantus’ ‘arithmos’ concept.

  • '우리는 누구이며, 어디서 왔는가?' 우리 스스로에게 질문하고 우리 자신을 이해하는 것, 이것이야말로 인류 역사상 가장 위대한 혁명일 것이다. 하지만 우리는 아직 우리의 정체성을 묻는 이 물음에 명확한 답을 얻지 못하고 있다. 물론 '사회적 동물' 혹은 '이성적 동물' 같은 전형적인 정의들이 있지만 이들 역시 매우 허약한 규정들이다. 우리가 왜 사회적 동물이 되고 이성적 동물이 되었는지에 대한 해명조차 담고 있지 않기 때문이다. 이 글의 목적은 이 물음의 해답을 찾아가는 단서를 발견하여 우리의 정체성을 좀 더 명확히 하는데 있다. 실마리는 진화론적으로 우리와 가장 가까운 혈족으로 불리는 침팬지에게서 출발한다. 우리와 침팬지는 무엇이 다른가? 침팬지에게도 '자아'가 있을까? 이런 물음들을 통해 우리가 찾아낸 답은 이렇다. 즉 인간이 침팬지와 다른 존재가 된 것은 뇌의 발달과 함께 정밀하게 움직이는 운동 시스템을 갖게 되었고, 나아가 이러한 운동 시스템이 내면화되어 마음을 갖게 되었기 때문이다. 그리고 마음의 생각하는 능력도 바로 이러한 내면화 메커니즘이 진화 발전한 것이다.

  • In this paper, we deal with the algebraic thinking from the perspective of ‘process’ and ‘object’ aspects. Generally, mathematical concepts have come from the concrete process. We consider the origin of algebra as the arithmetic calculations. Also, the concept of school arithmetic is beginning from actions or procedures. However, in order to develop the alge- braic thinking and to apply this thinking, we have to see the history of algebraic thinking, and find this duality. Next we investigate various researches relating to the ‘process-object duality’. Theses studies suppose that the concept formation and thinking process should be stared from the process-object duality. Finally, we reinterprete many difficulties in algebra - equals sign, variables, algebraic expressions, and linear equations, the principle of permanence of form- from the perspective of the process-object duality.

  • As a applied art, Architecture is a synthetic art for dwelling and settlement. It has started with the origin of the human. and Artistical-technological indicator, include not only materiality but also immateriality such as history and society. After 20C, various categories of thinking is a undergoing rapid change. especially, beginning in 1900, The intrinsic value of "Fine Art" had lost their competitive power in the face of industrial revolution's mass production. and it has been displaced by a "new concept", such as a conveyance of meaning or rational way of thinking. This change means free from the tradition and custom of a past. for that reasons, Due to the nature of applied art, it always include design symbolism and designer's thinking is mainly processed in their own system of thinking. Symbolism for the art was distinguished from a general concept by the connotative meaning that called "the dual image". Therefore, at the start, this study will define about design and symbolism with a architecture as a applied art. then, Analysis the expression tendency of the contemporary architecture and modification. as a result, It aim to systematize mapping process and suggest the classification of various visual cue.

  • The year of 2009 marks the $200^{th}$ anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his book, On the Origin of Species. Having survived the 150 years of hardening and tempering, Darwin's theory of natural selection is now more comprehensive and powerful than ever. It casts its shadow over nearly all academic disciplines and societal sectors. It truly revolutionized the way we look at the world and ourselves. In the midst of Darwinian revolution, however, Korea remains as a backward country as far as the understanding of Darwin and his theory is concerned. A variety of intellectual activities organized to celebrate the Year of Darwin is helping to narrow the gap. This article summarizes the kinds of such activities held in Korea this year and explains how Darwin made all this possible. To paraphrase the famous quotation by Theodosius Dobzhansky, I now dare to say, "Nothing in life makes sense except in the light of evolution".

  • This study considered stools not just as a tool for sitting but with their symbolicity as well. Regarding the changes and meanings of general stools and X-stools, this paper studied their images and explanations as well as literatures by quoting as it limited their range from the ancient times till Neo-classicism. In conclusion, the origin of stools exists in consciousness and also the social hierarchy of authority. There still remain the elements of X in any way along with the functions. This proves that furniture has reason for existence even today not just for its functions but something beyond that. Along with the historic flow of X-stools, we should know that there is diversity of thinking in the area of stools. In understanding furniture design or furniture, now is the time to approach to it in various ways, and it is expected that new design can be born through that thinking.

  • 본 연구에서는 원산지가 소비자의 제품 선호도에 미치는 영향을 규명하고 이를 소비자의 정보처리 관점에서 상표원산지와 생산원산지 정보의 일치성(congruity)으로 설명하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 상표는 같지만 국가를 달리한 제품을 사진으로 나타낸 실험자극을 개발하여 응답자에게 제시하고 제품의 선호도를 측정하였다. 제품은 관여도, 이성-감성, 사적-공적 개념 특성을 반영하여 녹음기, 스포츠화, 화장품, 휴지를 선정하였으며, 원산지로는 선진국(미국, 일본, 프랑스), 한국, 후진국(말레이시아)를 선정하였다. 원산지간 선호도 차이를 분석하기 위하여 다변량 반복측정방법을 선택하였으며, 두 제품간의 선호도 차이를 위하여 paired-t 검증이 사용되었다. 실증분석 결과 저관여이면서 사적 제품으로 판단되는 휴지를 제외하고 모든 제품에서 선진국 상표와 제품이 선호되었다. 즉, 다양한 제품특성을 반영한 제품군에서 원산지 효과가 있음을 보여 주었다. 그리고 제품선호도에서 상표원산지와 생산원산지 간에 정보 일치성(congruity)에 차이가 있는 지를 규명하였는데 상표원산지와 생산원산지간에 정보일치성이 있는 경우가 그렇지 않은 경우에 비하여 보다 선호성이 높은 것으로 나타나 원산지의 정보 일치성이 제품선호도에 있어 중요한 영향요인임을 보여주었다. 본 연구는 다양한 제품특성의 반영과 정보 일치성으로 원산지효과를 이해하게 하는 데 기여하여 원산지효과의 일반화 가능성을 높여 줄 수 있다고 판단된다.

  • The objectives of this study are to consider about the research of a costume and a discussion about a system of costume by practical science scholar in the late period of Chosun Dynasty. The result are descrived as follows: 1. The purpose that practical sciellce scholars researched a costulne was not only the intellectual research but also to make a basis in order to reform a uncorrected costume's system. Their study had two point. The one was the investigating research about the origin and change of the costume. The other was the study about a formation of costume. 2. The practical science scholars determined the directions to reform a wrong costumes' system on the basis of the research about a costume. They had three directions. Those were a conservatism, a rationalism to think the realities of life and a reformation. 3. The practical science scholars' thinking was to pursue the origin form and the practical use. This two axis show the direction to improve our costulne's culture now a day.

  • The origin of "Fire" in Traditional Chinese Medicine is summed up based on observation and knowledge of natural fire, followed by abstract thinking, of which the outcomes are best symbolized in the character Fire[火]. Because it is an abstract concept, it is hard to give a single and strict definition. Naturally, it would be necessary to analyze and illustrate the origin of 'Fire' from different angles such as broad definition, multi-definition, levels, classifications and effects. The concept of 'Fire' has four meanings in the aspect of the broad definition: first, natural fire; second, the physiological conception of fire; third, the medical conception of fire; fourth, general concept related to fire. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, fire mainly indicates physiologic fire, pathological fire, the fire in the six kinds of natural climate and the fire as one of the properties and the flavors of herbs.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of family-of-origin, personal and spousal characteristics, mediated by communication and problem-solving behavior, on marital quality and stability. On the basis of previous literature, the theoretical model was specified, estimated, and evaluated for adequacy of statistical fit for samples of 214 married women. Although the initial model was not supported by data, the revised model fitted the data adequately. Results of structural equation modeling indicated family-of-origin and communication behavior directly affected marital quality. However, the personal and spousal characteristics were linked with marital quality and stability only if they were mediated by communication and problemsolving behavior. Communication behavior was strongly related to marital quality and stability both directly and indirectly through problem-solving behavior. The model also showed marital quality can be an antecedent variable for marital stability. The findings of results is to generate more broad-minded thinking about how communication behavior, marital quality, and marital stability are interrelated.
