인공지능 이미지 생성 과정에서의 심미적 경험 고찰

Today, art is expanding in terms of economic efficiency with the development of artificial intelligence(AI) technology and opening up opportunities for creation to the general public, just as it has very effi ciently replaced human labor and time. Amid growing interest in copyright and execution subjects in images generated by AI behind the economic benefi ts of the breakthrough development of artificial intelligence technology, this study examines the difference between the aesthetic experience when the researcher drew an actual picture himself and when creating images through AI programs.
 With the development of ChatGPT utilizing AI, data information processing technology between language and images opens the horizon for new art creation. The implications of this study can be presented in three dimensions in terms of diff erentiated directions from existing art education. First, in relation to developing creativity through thought that can be made up of accumulation of knowledge and long experiential learning, image creation by AI lacks a process of humanistic thinking and needs to be reinforced in terms of learning. Second, the subject of education related to the creation of professional AI images and the setting of educational content and direction according to the subject are required through discussions on whether art AI utilization technology should be taught in engineering fi elds or in art fi elds as a matter of subjectivity and execution power. Finally, in art education, AI should drive a reconsideration of what kind of teaching methods are eff ective and what concepts are required for AI learning in cognitive science and pedagogical theories and methods.
 In conclusion;with the development of ChatGPT;artificial intelligence opens up the horizon for new art creation through data information processing between language and images;and the purpose and meaning of traditional art education need to accommodate this change and transform in the practice of liberal arts education at a time when the development of these technologies is required. The implications of this study show that by identifying the unique attributes of art regardless of the major area;understanding the functions of valuable works;and providing aesthetic experiences;a new horizon must be devised for liberal arts education that enables humanities;sociological;and engineering combinations as well as simple artificial intelligence technologies.

Teaching Methods for Entrepreneurship Courses for Students in Taiwan

This short research article aims to present the teaching entrepreneurial management for undergraduate students in Taiwan with higher power distance and uncertainty avoidance. Teachers and students have to keep distances and wear masks to avoid infection. However, it reduces the passionate of students to communicate and answer questions. Mobile App such as ZUVIO can help teachers and students to cope the situations. Teachers and students in Taiwan with higher power distance and higher uncertainty avoidance prefer to present lectures and ask students to memorize knowledge form textbooks. However, the kinds of teaching methods do not fit entrepreneurship courses, which require creativity and innovation. We used teamwork, project writing, and competition assessment to inspire their creativity and innovation, in order to reduce uncertainty avoidance. Moreover, we use online education software, ZUVIO, for students to vote on the project anonymously with the intention of decreasing power distance. Studies carried out at one university in Taiwan in 2018. Our sample came from around 50 students attended an entrepreneurship course in a university in Taiwan. At the end of the semester, students, mostly from China, Taiwan, Malaysia and Indonesia, students present innovative projects, attend competitions, and receive brilliant awards. We recommend teachers in Asian countries with higher power distance and higher uncertainty avoidance revise teaching methods according to their teaching situation. For instance, most business school teachers use paper-and-pencil tests to assess learning outcomes, but a small number of teachers competition to evaluate performance. It could cause a conflict situation between teachers.

Assessment of Techniques for Teaching School Children with Autism

BackgroundIn the modern era, researchers are facing a big challenge in diagnosing autism disorders. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention 2014 report, the prevalence of autism among children in the United States is approximately 1 out of 88 children; whereas, in South Korea, the prevalence is 1 out of 38. In India, most of the children with autism are yet to be diagnosed partly due to the lack of self-screening test compared to the other countries. Currently, no data is available for analyzing the prevalence of autism in India. In order to improve the behavior, the social interaction, and the verbal communication of these children, scientists are using various kinds of teaching methods. ObjectivesThe objectives of this work were to screen the level of autism among school children using Gilliam Autism Rating Scale (GARS-2) questionnaire and evaluate the effects of various teaching methods on social behavior of school children with autism. Methods and resultsNinety children in the age group between 3 – 16 years from three schools (S1 – 30, S2 – 30 and S3 – 30) with autism are participated in this study. In S1, the autistic children are trained with horseback riding and yoga therapy; whereas in the S2, the children are trained with normal teaching using blackboard and in the S3, the children are trained with cue cards. The GARS-2 questionnaire was used for assessing the communication, the stereotype behavior and the social interaction with the help of parents or the caregivers. ConclusionResults of our study revealed that raw and the standard scores of stereotyped behaviors was notably (p<0.05) low in S1 school children when collated with the other two (S2 and S3) schools. Similarly, the raw and the standard score of communication, the socially interaction sub-score was notably (p<0.05) low for the children in S3 when collated with the children in the other two schools. The study concluded that the horseback riding, the yoga therapy and the cue cards-based teaching methods improve the stereotyped behavior, increase concentration power and also helps in maintaining the children's mind stability.

Teaching Methods in Biology Promoting Biodiversity Education

The aim of this qualitative survey was to investigate what kind of teaching methods have been used in biology to promote biodiversity education (BDE) and how the methods support biodiversity (BD) learning. We found, in total, 317 international scientific articles published since 2000 which described the teaching methods regarding BDE and the teaching, and/or the learning. From these ones 12 articles specifically addressed the teaching methods of BD. The content of these articles was analysed in detail. The detailed analysis was based on (a) the categories of the teaching methods used, (b) the conception of learning in the Finnish National Core Curricula for Secondary schools and (c) the revised Bloom’s taxonomy and Stanny’s verbs concerning the levels of taxonomy. The most used teaching methods were hands-on instruction, experiential learning, and teacher presentation. The least used ones were games, roleplay, debates, service learning, study trips, and visits. In all the articles, various teaching methods used during the lessons were described. The items concerning the teaching methods, which supported students learning were active participation and interaction—mentioned in all the articles—followed by observation, experimental work, experiential learning, and techniques for increasing environmental awareness. The understanding of the different perspectives of BD and the development of self-evaluation were addressed in only four and two of the articles, respectively. The four types of knowledge were supported by the used teaching methods in nine articles jointly. The lower levels of thinking skills were well-supported by the used teaching methods. The highest level of thinking skills, such as synthesis and evaluation, received the least amount of attention.

Evaluation of Pre-Service Teachers’ Opinions about Teaching Methods and Techniques Applied by Instructors

Problem Statement : Training qualified teachers depends on the quality of the trainers. From this point of view, the quality of teacher educators and their instruction in the classroom are important to train qualified teachers. This is because teachers tend to see teacher educators who have trained them as role models, and during their school years, they tend to reflect the applications of teacher educators on their educational practices. Studies have reported that there are similarities between the teaching techniques teachers use in their practices and those their instructors used during teacher training. Therefore, it is important to explore what teaching methods and techniques teacher educators use in their practices. The purpose of this study is to examine what kind of teaching methods and techniques teacher educators use in the course, Introduction to Educational Science, and to explore the reasons why they use those methods and techniques as well as their ways of creating an active learning process. Purpose of the Study : The purpose of this study is to examine what kind of teaching methods and techniques teacher educators use in their course, Introduction to Educational Science, and to explore the reasons why they use those methods and techniques as well as their ways of creating an active learning process. Method : One of the mixed model designs, consecutive sequence design, was applied. The data was collected by a questionnaire and semi-structured interview developed by the researcher. The data obtained from the questionnaire were analyzed by calculating arithmetic means and standard deviation; they were demonstrated in tables and interpreted. In order to better clarify the reasons behind the qualitative findings, quantitative data were collected and analyzed with content analysis. Findings : Findings show that student teachers reported that their instructors mostly employ question-answer, discussion, lecturing, brainstorming, group work, and individual or group presentations in their practices. Student teachers also reported that their instructors rarely use student- centered teaching methods including dram, educational games, concept checking, dramatization, aquarium, speaking ring, storytelling, station, conceptual, caricature, and tour. Findings from interviews with instructors show that class size and the physical structure of the classroom force them to use more traditional teaching methods in their practice. Other reasons they used more traditional methods were: a) lack of pedagogical content knowledge, b) the ignorance of the lesson, and c) the perception that university level course are taught in traditional ways. Conclusion and Recommendations : The research results showed that while teacher educators frequently use questioning and lecture techniques in their classrooms and they assign the students into groups or pairs and ask them to present what they learn from the groups, they rarely use other effective techniques such as concept controlling, educational games, drama, oral history, speech circle, writing story, or conceptual comics. Additionally, teacher educators contended that crowded classrooms, physical environments of classrooms, using traditional teaching methods, and not spending more time using active teaching methods negatively affect learning processes in classrooms. Considering the results of the research, it can be recommended that teacher educators attend courses related to effective use of active learning strategies in classrooms and get involved in professional development seminars concerning active learning strategies. Also, solving problems relevant to crowded classrooms, organizing an environment for active learning activities, and decreasing the number of courses teacher educators teach would make significant contributions to this process.

Objective Aiming at the characteristics of the course of acupuncture and massage, to discuss the application of Situational heuristic teaching. Methods 60 undergraduate students in Grade Four of Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine(clinical practice)were even divided into 2 groups, that was situational teaching group(the experimental group)and the traditional teaching group(control group). The students in the experimental group received basic theory course of 30 hours, 60 hours in the course of situational teaching. The clinical cases of teaching were carefully designed according to the simu-lated hospital scene in each chapter, including large cases, acupuncture and massage therapy program, which were conducted between teachers and students through interactive and positive research and other forms. In the control group the teachers taught the content to students in class for full 90 hours in accor-dance with the requirements of the teaching syllabus. Taking objective theoretical examination, subjective questionnaire survey, and subjective clinical return visit questionnaire scores as indicators the difference of the two kinds of teaching methods were compared and statistical analysis was carried out by SPSS 19.0 software, chi square test and t test. Results By comparison of objective theoretical examination results of two groups of subjects, the number of good students in the experimental group was 10, and the number of outstanding students was 7, with an average of(80.63±1.35)points. In the control group, the number of good students was 9, the number of outstanding students was 6, with the average score of(80.54±1.32), and the average score of the objective theory test scores were not statistically significant(P>0.05). The learning satisfaction of the students in the experimental group was(3.91±0.29). Students in the experimental group thought situation heuristic teaching was conducive to professional development(3.23 ± 0.39), to improving the learning quality(3.68 ± 0.72), clinical thinking culture(4.11±0.24), clinical ability(3.72±0.27), clinical physician-patient communication skills(3.28±0.79), basic clinical skills(3.48±0.42)points, with teaching satisfaction(4.19±0.25), which were all higher than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion Situational heuristic teaching method is better than the traditional teach-ing method in stimulating students' learning enthusiasm, innovation ability, cultivating professional interest and cultivating students' clinical practice ability. The teaching practice of teachers should give full play to the advantages of the method and improve the teaching effect, which is worthy of further research and pro-motion. Key words: Situational heuristic teaching; Acupuncture and moxibustion; Application
