The purpose of this study is to present a diagnostic evaluation tool that can more accurately determine the academic performance level in Korean language proficiency of foreign undergraduate students studying at domestic universities. The diagnostic evaluation diagnoses the academic Korean language proficiency of foreign undergraduates, and provides the diagnosis results to foreign undergraduates, professors, and university institutions so that teaching activities can be conducted efficiently. In this study, it was considered that the ‘Basic Academic Ability Diagnostic Test for the Korean Language Subject' was suitable as a test tool for diagnosing to diagnose the academic achievment of foreign undergraduates. This diagnostic test is a diagnostic tool designed for Korean students in Korea, and it not only continuously verifies its reliability and validity, but also includes background knowledge that Korean university students in Korea are basically acquiring. To prove that the 'Basic Academic Ability Diagnostic Test' is suitable as a diagnostic evaluation tool for foreign undergraduates, the correlation with the Korean language achievement evaluation was analyzed. The correlation between diagnostic evaluation and other items showed a significantly positive correlation. When the diagnostic evaluation score was good, the pre-test and post-test scores of Korean language proficiency, and the TOPIC level was also high. This result proves that the basic academic ability diagnostic test tool is very suitable as a diagnostic evaluation tool for foreign undergraduate students. Also, the analysis result of the pre- and post-tests and the TOPIK test showed a very significant and strong positive correlation with the post-test, and the higher the TOPIK grade, the higher the score of the pre‐test.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of a problem-based simulation education program on nursing student’s academic achievement, academic efficacy, and clinical performance skills. Methods: This study examined a group of nursing students using the pretest-posttest test design. Second year pediatric nursing students studying the practical subject Integrated Simulation at S University in K region were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire before and after using a problem-based simulation education program. In addition to using SPSS/WIN 21.0 for descriptive analysis, the data was analyzed using independent t-test, repeated measures ANOVA and Pearson- correlation. Results: After completing the simulation education program, participants showed statistically higher academic achievement (t = -5.795, p < .001) and clinical performance skills (t = -3.835, p = <.001) than before. However, there was no significant difference in academic efficacy score(t=-.217, p=.829). Conclusion: The results from this study indicate that lessons with various methods and content should be developed to –evaluate both theoretical knowledge and clinical performance skills. In addition, there is a need to develop a standard evaluation.

본 연구는 취학 전 유아의 학교준비도, 학업능력, 사회적 유능감과 초등학교 아동의 학교적응, 학업수행능력 간의 관계를 살펴보고, 유아기 변인이 취학 이후 학교적응과 학업수행능력에 미치는 영향을 탐구하는 데 목적이 있다. 연구목적 달성을 위해 한국아동패널 7차와 8차 자료를 토대로 상관분석과 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 취학 전 유아의 학교준비도, 학업능력, 사회적 유능감과 초등학교 입학 이후 아동의 학교적응, 학업수행능력은 모두 ‘보통’ 이상의 수준을 나타냈으며, 주요 변인 간에 정적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 아동의 초등학교 적응에는 유아의 학교준비도가 가장 큰 영향을 주며 학업능력, 사회적 유능감 순으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 아동의 학업수행능력에는 유아의 학업능력이 가장 큰 영향을 주며 사회적 유능감, 학교준비도 순으로 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 유아의 초등학교 적응과 학업수행능력 향상 방안 모색에 기초자료를 제공하고, 가정과 유아교육기관의 초등학교 준비, 유·초 연계 교육과정 설계에 시사점을 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

초등학교 수학교과시간에 원예활동을 도입한 원예-수학통합교육을 실시한 결과, 아동의 수학성적이 즉각적, 직접적으로 향상되지는 않았지만, 장기적 관점에서 아동이 수학에 흥미를 가지도록 도왔다. 원예-수학통합교육프로그램에 대한 선호도 조사에서, 아동은 수학 학습에 대한 재미가 증가하였고 과목에 더 관심을 가지게 된 원인이 되었다고 하였다. 본 연구를 통해서 볼 때, 원예-수학통합교육 프로그램은 초등학교 교육현장에서 적용 가능성이 매우 높으며 수학에 대한 흥미를 높이고 학교생활의 활력을 높이는데 매우 효과적이라고 판단된다.
