다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to ascertain high school student ideas on the motion of the Earth and moon by
cognitive level. For this study, five students determined to be of high, middle and low cognitive level selected from 73
10th-grade students at a high school located in Suwon, Gyeonggido. The results of this study were as follows: first,
students at the high cognitive level had comparatively more logical and scientific conception on the revolution and rotation
of the Earth and moon. second, students at the middle cognitive level, generally had a passive learning attitude to
unconditionally memorize learned contents, so they were apt to forget learned contents, also their recognized conception
was not enlarged. In addition, they had naive theories, intuitive ideas and misconceptions as well as made logical errors in
the course of explanation for the motion of the Earth and moon. In the course of explanation for the phases of the moon
and the cause of change of season, because of their scientific conception, the students made more and more errors in
conception. finally students at the low cognitive level were not willing to think logically and positively and were very
passive in the attitude to recognize conception. In addition, they have learned helplessness on the grounds that they have
low scholastic achievement specially in science.
