In this paper, we surveyed the attitudes of engineering students in 6 universities in Chungcheong area to mathematics by 5-scale degrees and performed a comparative analysis of the results. The results revealed a number of meaningful points which should be applied to college mathematic education. On the basis of the results of the analysis, we made the following suggestions; 1) It is necessary to pay much attention to the students who have insufficient math ability 2) Special teaching methods are required for Freshman engineering students 3) Practical teaching strategies should be developed for engineering students that are based on the research on their math background 4) We should develop more materials in the area of mathematical concept image 5) More attention should be paid to the relation between math concepts and engineering concepts. Besides the above suggestions, we proposed that more research about students' math background and attitudes should be conducted for more efficient college math education.

Current Mathematics of CSAT(College Scholastic Ability Test) faced with preparing the test system and test items according to the new curriculum. The discuss about how to construct the items and what form of items should be set was not conducted enough. To accord with these requirements, in this study, mathematics exams for university entrance in Taiwan are investigated. We look into General Scholastic Ability Test(GSAT) and Advanced Subjects Test(AST) in Taiwan. Those exams are analyzed in terms of exam system, mathematical contents, types of items, and so on. And then on the basis of this, we discuss implications on mathematics assessment type and contents, further mathematics learning.

This study analyzed on the content validity of the Korean geography subject evaluation questions on the College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT) from 2014 to 2016 regarding the national curriculum achievement standards. The main results are as follows. First, from 'the knowledge dimension' aspect, both the achievement standard and the CSAT questions showed the highest ratio of 'factual knowledge'. Second, from 'the cognitive process dimension' aspect, the percentage of 'understand' was the highest in the achievement standard, whereas in the CSAT questions, the ratio of 'analyze' and complex type of 'analyze' and 'understand' was the highest. Third, in the result of the analysis of the content validity of the Korean geography CSAT questions through proportion test, all of the analysis targets showed 'a little low'. Finally, the content validity analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the main types of the achievement standards and the CSAT questions in the 'Geomorphological Environment and Ecosystem part' and 'Space of Production and Consumption part' from the cognitive process aspect, which showed relatively low content validity compared to other areas. The results of this study suggest that the achievement standards should be reflected on the Korean geography CSAT questions and it should not be focused on evaluating the learner's analysing ability.

1999년 대학입학 수학능력고사(이하 수능)부터 새롭게 선택과목제와 표준점수제가 도입된다. 선택과목제는 수리탐구II 영역에서 공통과목외 한 개의 과목을 수험생 개인이 선택해서 보는 것을 의미하고, 표준점수제는 영역별 난이도를 조정하기 위해 각 영역의 원점수를 평균 50, 표준편차 10인 점수로 표준화시키는 것을 뜻한다. 선택과목이 있는 영역의 경우는 난이도차뿐만 아니라 각 선택과목 집단별로 일반적인 학업능력의 차이가 존재할 수 있다. 따라서 점수를 표준화시킬 때 과목별 난이도뿐만 아니라 그룹별 학업능력의 차이도 고려해야 한다. 지금까지 발표된 등화방법은 대표적으로 모수적 방법인 선형등화와 비모수적 방법인 백분위수등화가 있는데 이 두 가지 방법은 모두 각 그룹의 학업능력이 동일하다는 가정 하에 전개되어왔다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 우리 나라 입시상황에 적절한 그룹별 능력차이를 보정한 선형등화와 분위수 등화 방법을 비교해 보았다.

보통 문장제(거리 ${\cdot}$ 속도 문제, 시계 문제, 농도 문제, 개수 세기, 측도 영역)는 초등학교부터 반복하면서 대학수학능력 시험에서는 외적 문제해결력을 측정하는 문장으로 나타난다. 문장제를 해결하는데는 사고가 여러 단계로 이루어져야 한다. 따라서 일반적으로 문장제는 난해하므로 조직적이고 전문적인 학습지도가 이루어져야 한다. 하지만 입시위주의 교육 등 여러 여건상 잘 이루어지지 않고 있는 것이 현실이다. 수학을 잘하는 학생이라도 문장제를 해결하지 못하는 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 문장제의 해결의 저해 요인을 완화시킬 수 있는 지도 방안으로서 Polya의 문제해결 전략을 이용하며, 실험반과 비교반의 학습 효과를 비교 분석하여 이를 통하여 효율적인 문장제 지도방안을 연구한다.

The major purposes of this study were 1) to present a desirable guideline for writers who would develop the new Introduction-to-Industry textbook through the comparative analysis of 4 different kinds of current Introduction-to-Industry textbooks, 2) to help educators, who make national college entrance exam in the vocational inquiry area, make good exam items with the results of the study, and 3) to offer effective methods of teaching and learning in the field of industrial education with them. Research method used in this study was mainly literature review with the scrutinization of the literature related to the Introduction-to-Industry textbooks. Results of this study showed that all textbooks compared do mostly comply with the national writer's specific guidelines for the Introduction-to-Industry textbooks. However there were varieties for the all textbooks in a sense of deployment balance for the contents of the textbook chapters. There were also considerable differences for the deployment of supplementary materials, evaluative materials, visual materials and etc. according to the characteristics of each textbook. The degree of the connectivity between the textbooks and the national college entrance exam in the area of the vocational inquiry was similar for the each textbook. However, it was not good enough for the students to study one textbook for the preparation of the exam in the vocational inquiry area because the problems in the exam were set in the range of covering the all different kinds of textbooks by the examiners.

In this paper, we examine high school in order to know their ability for understanding about fundamental functions, such as polynomial, trigonometric, logarithm and exponential functions which have learned from high school. The result of this study shows as follows. More than half students are not able to draw shape of given functions, except polynomial. More students do not fully understand about function properties such as domain, codomain, range, maximum and minimum value.

보통 문장제(일량, 거리, 속도 문제, 시계 문제, 농도 문제, 개수 세기, 측도 영역)는 초등학교부터 반복하며 나오며 대학 수학 능력 시험에서는 외적 문제 해결능력으로 측정되기도 한다. 문장제를 해결하는데는 사고가 여러 단계로 이루어져야 한다. 따라서 일반적으로 문장제는 난해하므로, 조직적이고 전문적인 학습지도가 이루어져야 한다. 하지만 입시위주의 교육 등 여러 여건상 잘 이루어지지 않고 있는 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 문장제의 문제 해결에 필요한 해결요소를 발견하고 저해 요인을 없앨 수 있는 지도 방안으로서 소집단 토의학습에 문제해결 전략을 이용하여, 효율적인 문장제 지도 방안을 연구하고 상이한 문제에 접근하는 방법, 문제를 이용하는 방법 등을 토의학습을 통하여 다양한 풀이방법을 해결하면서 이를 통하여 사고력을 신장할 수 있도록 연구한다.

This paper is a study on the perception of current competency and expected competency of engineering freshmen by extracting core competencies acquired from university education. It also aims to suggest proper way for engineering university education. This study extracts competencies in the following five areas as core competencies: 'knowledge on major area', 'cultural ability', 'foreign language ability', 'basic learning ability', 'intercommunication ability'. To achieve this purpose, this study surveyed 'C' university engineering department freshmen (584 students) with questionnaires about their perception of core competencies. The results are as follows. First, engineering freshmen perceived current competencies were weak in every area, especially their capacities in 'foreign language ability' area were perceived to be weakest. Their demand for education is the highest in 'foreign language ability' area, and the second higher in 'knowledge on major area'. Secondly, there exists meaningful difference between perception of current competency and expected competency depending on the gender, high school department (science/liberal arts), high school location, types of college admissions, and types of mathematics in NAST. According to these results, this study suggests enhancement of foreign language (English) education in engineering department, design and implementation of various educational program to overcome individual difference, promoting importance of competencies in the 'cultural abilty' and 'intercommunication abilty', necessity of continuous adjustment and complementation for engineering educational program through accumulation of feedback processes, activation of career education through engineering education and special programs.
