Evolution Korea The financial crisis that struck Asia forced a major reappraisal of the old model of governmentbusiness alliances and public management of private risks In Korea this meant a change in the development paradigm In a controversial move South Koreas government has requested textbook publishers to ignore calls to eliminate examples of evolution from high school science books This includes the evidence of the evolution of horses and the Avian ancestor Archaeopteryx 1 Evolution and Religion A creationist group in South Korea has successfully convinced textbook publishers to omit evidence of evolution from science textbooks for high school students The Society for Textbook Revise an independent branch of the Korea Association for Creation Research that wants to rid biology textbooks of atheist materialism was behind the move The STR asserts that such materialism creates a negative image for students causing them to lose faith When the STRs ad campaign made the news scientists around the globe expressed concern In a letter to the editor of Nature evolutionary biologist Jae Choe at Ewha Womans University in Seoul complained that South Korea had given in to religious prejudice He was backed up by colleagues from across the country who formed an organization called Evolution Korea to organize a petition to protest the changes to the textbooks Some scientists are worried that the STR campaign will spread to other regions of the world where creationism is on the rise The letter to Nature warned of the antievolutionist campaign putting pressure on textbook revisions especially in countries with large Christian and Muslim populations South Koreas cultural background is especially strong in the debate over evolution 26 percent of South Koreans are members of a religious community with the majority practicing Christianity or Buddhism In addition a lot of Koreans adhere to the Chondogyo philosophy which is based on Confucian principles which emphasizes harmony in society and personal selfcultivation Chondogyo is a way of teaching that the human being is one with Hanulnim the God of Sun and that heavenly blessings are possible through good works All of this has made creationism a fertile ground Multiple studies have shown students with religious backgrounds to be more hesitant to learn about evolution than those who do not The causes behind this are not evident One reason is that students with a religious background tend not to be as wellversed in scientific theories and concepts and are therefore more vulnerable to the influence of creationists Another factor could be that those with a religious background may view evolution as a belief system that is atheistic making them feel less comfortable 2 Evolution and Science In recent years the scientific community has been concerned about antievolution initiatives in schools A survey conducted in 2009 revealed that nearly 40 of Americans believed that biological evolution was a myth and that it would be in conflict with their religious beliefs Despite the success of creationism in some states many scientists feel that the best method to combat this inclination is not to be actively involved in it but rather to educate people about the evidence for evolution Scientists have a responsibility to educate their students about science including the theory of evolution 에볼루션 사이트 must also inform the general public about the science process and how knowledge from science is collected and validated They must explain how theories of science are frequently challenged and revised However misconceptions about the nature and purpose of research can lead to antievolution beliefs For example some people may confuse the word theory with the normal meaning of the word a hunch or guess In science however an hypothesis is rigorously tested and empirical data is used to confirm it A theory that is repeatedly tested and observed is then a scientific principle The debate over evolutionary theory is an excellent opportunity to discuss the significance of the scientific method and its limitations It is important to understand that science does not provide answers to questions about lifes purpose or meaning but rather allows living things to grow and change A comprehensive education should include exposure to the major fields of science including evolutionary biology This is important because many jobs and choices require individuals understand the way science operates The vast majority scientists in the world agree that humans have evolved over time A recent study that predicted the adults views of the consensus on this subject found that those with higher levels of education and knowledge of science were more likely to believe there is a consensus among scientists about human evolution The people who have more religious beliefs but less scientific knowledge tend to be more divided It is essential that teachers stress the importance of understanding this consensus so that people can make informed decisions regarding energy use health care and other issues of policy 3 Evolution and Culture Cultural evolution is a close cousin of the popular evolutionary theory It focuses on how humans and other organisms learn from one another Researchers in this field employ explanation models and tools that are adapted from the ones used by evolutionary theorists and they look back to human prehistory to discover the genesis of our capacity for culture This approach also recognizes the distinction between biological and cultural traits While biological traits are typically acquired at once in sexual species at fertilization cultural traits can be acquired over a protracted period of time The acquisition of one characteristic can affect the development and growth of a different In Korea For instance the adoption of Western fashion elements in the latter half of the 19th century and the early 20th century was the result of a variety of events One of the most significant was the arrival of Japanese occupation forces who introduced Western hairstyles and clothing styles to Korean society When Japan left Korea in the 1930s some of those trends began to change By the end of World War II Korea was once more united this time under the rule of the Choson dynasty Today Korea is a vibrant political and economic power Despite the recent financial crisis the economy of Korea has been growing steadily over the past decade It is expected to continue this growth in the coming years However the current government has many challenges to face The inability of the government to develop a coherent plan to deal with the current economic crisis is one the biggest obstacles The crisis has exposed the weaknesses of the countrys economic policies including its excessive dependence on exports and foreign investment which might not be sustainable over the long term As the crisis has shattered the confidence of investors the government has to rethink its economic strategy and come up with alternatives to increase domestic demand It also needs to revamp the incentive monitoring control and discipline systems currently in place to ensure a stable financial environment This chapter outlines several scenarios of how the Korean economy might develop after the crisis 4 Evolution and Education The challenge for evolution educators is to teach evolutionary concepts that are appropriate for various stages of development and ages Teachers must for example be mindful of the diversity of religions in their classrooms and create a welcoming environment where students of both secular and religious beliefs feel comfortable Teachers must be able to recognize common misconceptions about evolution and be able to address them in the classroom Teachers should also have quick access to the various resources that can be used to teach evolution In this regard the Thinking Evolutionarily Convocation was an important step towards bringing evolutionary scientists and educators from a variety of sectors to discuss the best methods for teaching about evolution Participants included representatives from scientific societies and educational research organizations as well as officials of government funding agencies as well as curriculum designers 에볼루션 바카라 체험 of these diverse parties resulted in a consensus set of recommendations that will form the basis for future action It is essential to incorporate evolution in all science curricula at every level To accomplish this the National Science Education Standards NRC require that evolution be taught in a seamless manner across all sciences with a progression of concepts that are developmental appropriate A new publication from the NRC offers guidance for schools on how to integrate evolution into the life science curriculum Numerous studies have demonstrated that a more comprehensive explanation of evolution can lead to a greater understanding of students and belief in the concept of evolution However estimating the causal effect of evolution in the classroom is a challenge due to the fact that school curriculums are not assigned randomly and evolve over time as a result of the predetermined dates of gubernatorial election and state board of education appointments To overcome this limitation I employ a longitudinal data set that allows me to account for fixed state and year effects and the individuallevel variation in the beliefs of teachers about the evolution of their curriculum Another significant finding is that teachers who are more comfortable with teaching evolution report having less personal barriers to doing so This is in line with the hypothesis that a more confident faculty is less likely to avoid tackling evolution subjects in the classroom They also might be more likely use strategies such as an approach to reconciliation that is known to improve the acceptance of undergraduate students
