Όλ¬Έ (μμ¬)-- μμΈλνκ΅ λνμ : μΈκ΅μ΄κ΅μ‘κ³Ό, 2017. 2. κΉμ§μ.Reading has long been considered the most important language skill in the Korean EFL (English as a Foreign Language) context, but recently with the growth of information and communication technology worldwide, there seems to be a growing demand for writing as well. Language experts and practitioners have recognized the significance of developing both English reading and writing and attempted to devise effective and integrative English reading and writing instruction methods in the Korean EFL context. The purpose of this study was to examine the feasibility of collaborative storybook reading and reading-journal writing in the Korean EFL middle school context as a way to enhance students reading and writing abilities. The study explored the behavioral and attitudinal changes in students second language (L2) reading and writing while they participated in collaborative storybook reading and reading-journal writing activities.
A total of 28 seventh-grade EFL students participated in the study, and they read four English storybooks, carried out self-directed group book discussions, and wrote four reading journals while engaging in collaborative reading and reading-journal writing activities for four months. Students collaborative group discussions, reading journals, semi-structured interview responses, and pre- and post-questionnaire results were analyzed qualitatively. Students reading rate and writing amount were measured, their writing scores were scored by two raters, and all quantitative data were analyzed with paired samples T-tests.
The findings suggested that students showed positive changes in their L2 reading behavior, L2 writing behavior, and attitudes toward L2 reading and writing. Students gradually acquired autonomy and reading habits, made use of a wide range and scope of reading skills, and became more critical and fluent readers. Students gained intrinsic motivation and autonomy for writing, learned to write more effectively following the writing process, and began to express themselves through written texts. Students writing improved in terms of length, lexical complexity, content, organization, and language conventions. As for students attitudes toward reading and writing experiences, students displayed heightened interest, self-confidence, and motivation in English reading and writing, found English reading and writing pleasant, and discovered important values in reading and writing.
The present study presented the possibility of implementing collaborative storybook reading and reading-journal writing as an instructional approach to reinforce reading-writing relations, learner autonomy and collaboration, and critical literacy. The overall findings of the study provide insights into the development of integrated English reading-writing instruction suitable for the Korean EFL context, especially in secondary schools, to help students become more autonomous, proficient, and critical readers and writers.TABLE OF CONTENTS

In the data assimilation, the WRF 3DVAR cycling mode with incremental analysis updates (IAU) was used to remove the high-frequency gravity wave. To evaluate the impact of the data assimilation, a heavy rainfall case on 11-12 July 2006 associated with the back-building mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) was chosen. Using the IAU method, the gravity wave fluctuation was greatly reduced and the noise was effectively removed, which help to reduce aliasing in subsequent analyses. Prior to the investigation for the impact of radar and surface data assimilation, it was firstly assessed that the assimilation of multiple-Doppler radar and surface data assured the improvement in the accuracy of heavy rainfall forecast. The assimilation of both radar and surface data showed the best agreement with the observations in terms of location and amount of rainfall, and had a more positive impact on the quantitative precipitation forecasting (QPF) than the assimilation of either radar data or surface data only. In addition, the back-building characteristic was successfully forecasted. Based on the data assimilation experiments, the radar data helped forecast the development of convective storms responsible for the heavy rainfall in the early hours of forecast, and the surface data contributed to the occurrence of intensified low-level winds. Further, the surface data played a significant role in enhancing the thermal gradient and modulating the planetary boundary layer of the model, which resulted in favorable conditions for convection.
In the assimilation of high-resolution surface data, National Meteorological Center (NMC) method estimate of background error tended to exaggerate the length scale that determined the shape and extent to which observed information spreads out. For effective use of surface data to improve forecast accuracy of the heavy rainfall, the NMC method estimate of background error was tuned by comparing with independent estimates from accumulated observation minus background (O-B) data. A comparison revealed that the length scale of the NMC method should be halved in order to better assimilate the surface data with that of O-B. However, the correlation between NMC method and O-B statistics was still poor even using the half of the length scale of the NMC method, therefore, in this study, we examined a double iteration method with two different scales representing the large and small lengths.
The resulting assimilation clearly showed that the analysis with the tuned length scale was able to reproduce the small-scale features of the ideal field effectively. Further, the analysis using the double iteration method reflected the large- and small-scale features of observed information in the model fields, allowing the 3DVAR system to extract high-resolution observed information more effectively. The precipitation forecast using this double iteration with two different length scales for the heavy rainfall case was in good agreement with the observations in terms of rainfall distribution and amount. The improved forecast resulted from the development of well-identified MCSs by intensified low-level winds and their consequent convergence near the rainfall area. In addition, we assessed the impact of the background error by the double iteration method on the improvement of the analysis through the assimilation of surface data during a one-month period, in comparison with the background error estimated by the NMC method. The statistics for the one-month period indicated that the 3DVAR analysis using the double iteration improved the root-mean-square-errors (RMSEs) verified against the surface observations. These results indicate that the prediction of the heavy rainfall can be improved by designing a suitable strategy of the background error for assimilating the surface data.
Regarding to the surface observations, the surface observation impact in improving 6 hour forecast was evaluated for optimal use of surface observations and forecast skill improvement. The observation impact was evaluated during the warm season, with variant formula of third-order approximation of forecast error variation using WRF adjoint model. It was concluded that wind observations showed larger impact in improving the 6 hour forecast than thermodynamic observations. Among the wind observations, the meridional wind showed the largest impact in reducing 6 hour forecast error.Chapter 1 Introduction 1

The webtoon market is one such rapidly growing sector. Based mainly in Asia, the webtoon market emerged as comics originally produced in the form of print publications were transferred to digital format. In this study, I analyze purchasing patterns in the webtoon market taking into account the forward-looking behavior of consumers. A forward-looking consumer compares the utility of present and future purchasing decisions by considering their own discount rates on future purchase utility as well as expectations on future price reductions. This comparison strongly influences when consumers will purchase the goods in question.
In the webtoon market, serial episodes are provided weekly and consumers can choose to read the next episode for free when it is released, or read it in advance by paying a fee. This study suggests a theoretical decision model that takes into account the forward-looking behavior of consumers, the serial nature of webtoons, and the uniqueness of the early access model. The study utilizes the assumption that each consumer is heterogeneous in terms of expected utility for the next episode, and discount rates of future purchase utility.
The current study provides a theoretical explanation of the seemingly unreasonable behavior of customers who continue to purchase the latest preview, even though this behavior results in lower net utility compared to when they wait continuously for the next free episode. Based on this understanding, an optimal price for early access is derived mathematically with the assumption that the distribution of heterogeneous consumers follows a uniform distribution. If the distribution of consumer heterogeneity is known, an actual optimal price could be determined through this model. A key mathematical finding of this model is that that an intertemporal price discrimination strategy, at any degree of price discrimination from an arbitrary single price, outperforms a uniform pricing strategy in terms of revenue.
The significance of this study is as follows. First, it provides a logical explanation of consumer behavior in the webtoon market, which could also be utilized to aid the understanding of other serial online content markets. Second, it provides a theoretical, mathematical basis for pricing decisions in the webtoon and other similar markets. Further empirical studies are needed to fully validate the finding of this paper.
