최근 한국사회는 급속히 다문화 사회로 변화 되면서 다문화 가정 학생을 위한 교육에 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이러한 시대 변화 흐름에 맞추어 다문화 가정 학생의 기초학습 능력과 관련된 연구가 진행되고 있으며 또한 국어, 사회, 음악, 미술, 통합교육 등에서 다문화 교육과정에 대한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 지식정보화 사회에서 필요로 하는 정보의 생성, 처리, 분석, 검색, 활용 등의 기본적인 정보 소양능력을 기르고, 이를 학습 활동과 일상생활에 적극적으로 활용하는 데 필요한 컴퓨터 교육에 관한 연구는 찾아보기 힘든 실정이다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 다문화 가정 학생을 위해 필요한 컴퓨터 교육내용을 제안하고자 한다.

The study aims to comprehend the health needs of multicultural families, identify relevant policies, and explore ways to enhance health information accessibility through Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Employing a qualitative research method, the health status of multicultural families was analyzed through literature review, followed by in-depth interviews. The findings revealed a lower priority given to health policies for multicultural families compared to other governmental sectors, with limited discussion on leveraging ICT for improved accessibility. In-depth interviews highlighted four main themes: "Early experiences in Korean society," "Language barriers in medical facilities," "Unmet healthcare needs for various reasons," and "High demand for health-related services." To safeguard health rights and enhance information accessibility, we recommend strengthening linguistic support in healthcare institutions, implementing government efforts for multicultural families, and designing user-centered ICT platforms.

The definition of digital poverty of multicultural families has not been changed since it was used at the first digital divide survey in 2012. The objective of this study is to reexamine and redefine digital poverty targets of digital divide survey for multicultural families. The results suggest to reexamine multicultural families rather than limiting to Immigrant women for digital poverty. The results were as follows. First, the current survey has been limited to the migrant women for information gap survey of married migrants. But, It is expected to increase immigrant men in the future. It should include migrant men in the marginalized target in terms of preparation for a multicultural society. Second, the current survey has been limited to the migrant women for information gap survey. But, It is expected to increase children of multicultural families. This information gap is likely to be linked to differences in education or future economic disparities for children of multicultural families. It should include children of multicultural families in the marginalized target in digital divide survey.

The purpose of this paper is to construct a cooperation network for multicultural information services. It is suggested that a network for multicultural information helps those who limited information resources. Following investigation of the related information resources-422 online sites in 395 groups-it was found that the activity of non-public groups is higher than that of public groups and that all related groups offer various information services to multicultural people: education (24.5%), culture (18.4%), human rights (12.7%), general life (8.9%), and etc. The paper suggests the sharing of the information of internal related groups and collaboration with th embassies and cultural centers of East Asian country in order to construct a multicultural information service.
