This article examined the effects of self-reflecting journal writing in speaking class on academic performance of science and engineering students. To assess the effect, 27 science and engineering students from the "Speech and Life" class were asked to keep a self-reflecting journal. Pre and post-intervention surveys were conducted, followed by the analysis of learning effect and satisfaction. In addition to the pre and post-intervention surveys, an additional survey on speaking ability was conducted at the same time and the change of the students' ability was assessed. Results showed that after writing self-reflection journals, participants' learning effect and satisfaction has increased, and their speaking performance was also improved.

The need for integrating the arts and literature into the engineering education has been emphasized to cultivate the creative talent in recent years. However, there have been few studies to investigate how the arts and literature can be linked with nurturing creative talent in the engineering fields. In this paper, it is examined that inventive thinking principles for creative ideation in the engineering fields can be applied to the arts and literature. For the purpose, creative works in the arts and literature, which can be explained by the five thinking tools of SIT(Systematic Inventive Thinking), are collected. The result shows that engineering and the arts share common thinking patterns.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between instructional strategies applied to engineering courses and students' learning strategies. As a result, students perceived that the application principle was the most applied and then the problem-centered principle was applied to engineering courses. In addition, the students showed that rehearsal strategies are the most used in courses. The most important instructional principle in this study was the problem-centered principle, and the higher the degree of application of problem-centered principle in engineering course, the students were likely to use more deep learning strategies such as elaboration and organization strategy, critical thinking strategy, and metacognitive strategy.

The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a behaviorally anchored rating scale for peer evaluation in group projects based on social interdependence theory. A mixed method involving a qualitative and quantitative approach was used in this study. In the qualitative study, both the individual and group interviews were conducted to college students regarding their cooperative learning experiences. Data from this qualitative research was analyzed based on 5 elements of cooperative learning and 'critical incidents' were extracted from students' own voices that would serve as specific rating criteria in the scale. Once the 'critical incidents' have been incorporated into the scale, validation from 3 independent experts was conducted. In the quantitative study, correlations with relevant variables were analyzed to examine the criteria-referenced validity. Findings suggest that the behaviorally anchored rating scale for peer evaluation in group projects can be used in various team-based learning contexts.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting the satisfaction of the program for the quality improvement of the long-term on-site training operated by the university. The survey questionnaire data of 393 students who participated in the IPP program of K university were used to analyze the data and the results were as follows: First, factors affecting the satisfaction of long-term on-site training were corporation factors and university factors. Specifically, job contents, coaching, job scope, center support were found to have a significant effect in that order. Second, the factors affecting the satisfaction of long-term on-site training were different according to group characteristics(IPP participation types, major types, corporation types). It is necessary to intensively manage the common and important corporation factors, and it is necessary to closely examine each factor derived from group characteristics, and to support and strive at university level according to group characteristics in student counseling and matching.

The university assessment of Industrial point of view that is the evaluation of university's outcomes was started in 2008 to find out university's social and industrial contribution rate by evaluating the added value of raising up competent people and technical development through university courses. This study is for analyzing outcomes of university assessment of Industrial point of view in the second period and searching for improvement suggestions of evaluation indexes and ways. The outcomes of university assessment of Industrial point of view in the second period is that are the contributions overcoming the difference of industrial requests and university's courses, information offering to university about industrial requests, the substantiate indicator for evaluating the suitability of university's courses and the improvement of university's competitiveness through course's upgrades, The ways improving the university assessment of Industrial point of view are introducing the ways of industrial university's consulting, evaluation for certification and involving graduate school's courses assesment, reinforcing the analysis of industrial requests, improving the indexes of courses and setting up feedback system.
