10학년 과학 교과서 지구 단원의 학습 내용에 포함되어 있는 탐구 과제가 제7차 교육 과정의 목표에 따라 제시되었는지를 판단하기 위해 11종 과학 교과서의 기본 과정에 제시되어 있는 탐구 과제의 유형과 기본 탐구 기능, 통합탐구 기능, 탐구 활동의 빈도를 조사하였고, 제시된 탐구 기능과 활동이 적절한지를 분석하였다. 분석한 결과 탐구 과제는 평균 24.0개가 제시되었으나 교과서마다 차이가 있었고 제시하는 유형이 달랐다. 탐구 활동의 빈도는 교과서마다 달랐고 제시된 것보다 더 많이 분석되었으며 통합적인 활동으로 제시되지 않고 하나의 탐구 기능처럼 제시되어 있었다. 또한 교과서에 제시된 통합 탐구 기능은 77.2%로 기본 탐구 기능 22.8%보다 많은 것으로 보였지만, 실제로 기본 탐구기능과 통합 탐구 기능의 분포 비율은 각각 45.6%와 56.4%로 조사되었다. 각 탐구 기능 중에서는 추리(49.5%)와 자료해석(68.7%)이 가장 많이 있었고, 문제 인식, 가설 설정, 일반화 등의 탐구 요소는 제시되고 있지 않았다. 또한 제7차 교육 과정에서 탐구 기능, 탐구 활동에 대한 의미를 제시하고 있지 않기 때문에 교과서마다 본질적 의미와 일치하지 않거나 협소한 의미로 사용되고 있었다. 이는 교육 과정이 탐구, 탐구 기능, 탐구 활동에 대한 의미를 조작적 수준으로 제시하고, 탐구 활동을 구성하기 위한 기준을 마련한 필요가 있음을 시사한다.
This study investigates the nature and the validity of the PhonePass SET-10 test designed to measure test-takers’ English oral proficiency using the automated computer technology. For this study, the data from 84 Korean college students were collected: students’ TEPS scores, PhonePass SET-10 results as well as the results from the survey developed to measure their attitudes toward the new format of English speaking test. Based on the analysis of the study, it is found out that there exists a positive correlation between the TEPS scores and the PhonePass SET-10 results of the participants, indicating that in fact the computer-based automated evaluating system can significantly contribute to assessing students’ English oral proficiency while the items and the purpose of the test administration are relatively limited. It is also reported that the participants of this study showed positive attitudes toward the PhonePass SET-10 with a hope that the newly developed speaking test will help them further their English study.
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are multipotent cells that reside in the bone marrow and replenish all adult hematopoietic lineages throughoutthe lifetime. In this study, we analyzed the expression of receptors of P2Y10, purinergic receptor families in murine hematopoietic stem cells, hematopoietic progenitor cells. In addition, the biological activity of P2Y10 was investigated with B lymphocyte cell line, Ba/F3 in effect to cell growth and cell cycle. From the analysis of expression in hematopoieticstem cell. and progenitor with RT-PCR, P2Y10 was strongly expressed in murine hematopoieticstem cells (c-kit+ Sca-l+ Lin-) and progenitor cell population, such as c-kit- Sca-l+ Lin-, c-kit+ Sca-l- Lin- and c-kit- Sca-l- Lin-. To investigate the biological effects by P2Y10, retroviral vector from subcloned murine P2Y10 cDNA was used fur gene introduction into Ba/F3 cells, and stable transfectant cells were obtained by flow cytometry sorting. In cell proliferation assay, the proliferation ability of P2Y10 receptor genetransfected cells was strongly inhibited, and the cell cycle was arrested at G1 phase. These result suggest that the P2Y10 may be involved the biological activity in hematopoietic stem cells and immature B lymphocytes.
아시아의 동안에 위치한 한반도는 수리적, 지리적 요인에 의해 지역에 따라 강수현상 및 탁월 일기의 다소와 그 계절변화가 크다. 이러한 탁월한 날씨의 특징은 한국의 하계의 강수출현율과 그 순변화에 잘 반영되고 있다. 본 논문은 한국의 78개 관측지점의 하계강수량(1991~2003)의 순별 평균값에 대해 주성분분석법을 응용하여 하계강수량의 순변화형을 추출하고, 그의 공간스케일과 강수량의 다소에 따라 강수지역구분을 한 것이다. 주성분 분석에 의해 추출된 주성분 벡터와 진폭계수(Rs)에 따라 하계 강수량 순변화의 전형적인 특징은 두 개의 순변화형으로 표현되며 그 누적기여율은 64.3%이다. 또한 한국의 하계 강수량의 순변화형은 A~K형까지 9개가 추출되었고, 강수지역은 17개형으로 분류되었다.
We present results of the VLBA observation toward the radio continuum and water maser emissions in a nearby LINER galaxy NGC 1052. The jet structure observed in 2000 is similar to that in 1998, and the two jet structures in 1998 and 2000 support the sub-luminal motion with apparent velocity of 0.26c. Distribution of water maser spots are located ~0.05 pc shifted to southwest from the component which is supported to be the nucleus, and no rapid positional change of the water maser gas with respect to the central engine is seen from 1995 to 2000. The maser gas is positionally coincident with a plasma torus, and the position of the maser gas relative to the nucleus is stable from 1995 to 2000. The maser gas in NGC 1052 could be explained to be associated with the nuclear circumnuclear torus or disk like the situation found in the nucleus of NGC 4258.
This study, conducted from April to May 2004 in the metropolitan and surrounding areas of Seoul, Korea, was performed to show the relationship between indoor and outdoor levels of PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations in 14 residential houses. In addition, indoor/outdoor ratios of PM10, PM2.5 concentrations were calculated. The relationship between the PM10, PM2.5 concentrations and respiratory symptoms by self recording questionnaire of 14 houses was investigated. In conclusion, although the results of this study failed to establish the relationship between PM10, PM2.5 concentrations and respiratory symptoms among residents, the levels of indoor PM2.5 were significantly higher than those of outdoor levels. The indoor PM10, PM2.5 concentrations were increased by the amount of time spent of residents. Further research should be directed to establish the relationship between PM10, PM2.5 concentration and respiratory symptoms.
