Mentoring as a human resources development program is being reconceptualized because of the rapidly shifting work environment which has been recently focused on the necessity of knowledge management. That is, new mentoring network theory as a reconceptualization of mentoring is structured by researchers who have related social network theory and mentoring and they have discovered that the development of individual and organizational is built by the relationships of multiple selves. In their paper, they have asserted that an individual's developmental stage is an important antecedent to the nature of mentoring and developmental networks that are possible. Further, they are suggesting that mentoring developmental network is a key tool for learning, development, and successful performance outcomes in challenging assignments. This paper aims to describe the next empirical research plan that will investigate the developmental stage of teachers as an antecedent of mentoring network. An introduction and background to the research will be explained to provide a conceptual framework for the next study.

This study aims to investigate the opinions of students who joined the Jeju Scientific Research Academy, a scientific research program with a mentoring system. The 50 middle school students and 50 high school students in the study were chosen as participants after being judged on their research plans. According to the study, students became more confident in research activities and could have a new point of view on research through interaction with a mentor. They were also very interested in the scientific research program of the Jeju Scientific Research Academy and found it helpful to understand the scientific concepts. Therefore the study shows it is necessary to consider actively the introduction of the mentoring system for the scientific research program. The follow-up study should be done to determine which factors influence on the inquiring minds and the understanding of scientific concepts of the students during the experience of the program.

Since the industrial society has emerged into the knowledge society and the development of software has enlarged its scale, the importance of the 'people' has surfaced at its peak. Even though the People, the Process and the Technology are mentioned as the core in the field of software engineering, the pragmatic aspect of it tends to lack adequate interest in the People. In other disciplines, several methods have been proposed in order to understand the psychology of the people. In this paper, we have organized the psychological researches that other fields have studied into four different perspectives. First, it covers how to apply a person-to-person psychological method referred to as mentoring. Second, we discuss about a team that utilizes the MBTI system in organizing their structure. Third, we look at a case of the propaganda; the psychological application for the masses. Finally, we cover on the new social media. We investigate on the possible considerations in applying the psychological techniques in the field of software development to utilize the advantages from each methods.

인터넷 사용의 일상화와 초고속통신망의 급속한 확산은 웹 기반 원격교육의 보편화를 가져왔다. 웹 기반 원격교육은 전통적 교육방식인 면대면 교육방식의 새로운 형태로써 도입되었으나 학습자와 교육자의 요구사항으로 면대면 교육방식의 대체제가 아닌 전략적 도구로써 진화하고 있다. 웹 기반 원격교육은 e러닝, e멘토링, 블렌디드러닝 등 다양한 시도가 추세이다. 이러한 시도의 공통적인 특징은 학습자, 교육자, 시스템 간의 상호작용에 대한 요구사항이 높아지고 있다는 것이다. 이 연구에서 웹 기반 원격교육의 학업성취에 영향을 미치는 변인과 웹 기반 원격교육 시스템 상호작용에 대한 조절효과를 실증 분석하였다.

Startups need proper external supports to survive and build strong foundations for growth in their early stage. Accelerators help such startups by providing tangible and intangible resources. Accordingly, accelerators are creating a social environment that can effectively support the startups in the early stage, distinct from other institutions that fund or help the startups. However, the actual impact of accelerators on startups has not been yet fully scrutinized thoroughly, especially with the lack of theoretical lenses to comprehend accelerators. This paper aims to build a theoretical foundation to understand the role of accelerator, focusing on the network-based perspective. We briefly overview the concept of accelerator and the current status of the accelerator industry. Subsequently, focusing on the network that accelerators and startups create, this paper examines how the characteristics of the network relationships affect the growth and survival of the early-stage startups. Thus, by offering systematic analysis of the underlying mechanisms of the effects of the accelerators under network-based approach, this paper suggests a direction for the future empirical research on the topic of startup accelerator.

Accelerator is a private investment institution that provides startups with comprehensive solutions to solve various difficulties such as startup facilities, funds, commercialization, securing a market etc. In addition to the role of an investor as a new startup support model, accelerators have contributed much to improvement of business ability of startups through intensive mentoring. Considering that previous studies gave weight to the determinants of investment from the perspective of investors, this study made a comparative analysis on the relative importance of determinants of investment in startups among accelerators, investors and entrepreneurs through the method of AHP. Results show that accelerators and investors regard "managerial characteristics" of startups as of the highest importance, whereas entrepreneurs think that "market characteristics" of startups are the most important. The result stems from an empirical judgment from the perspective of investors that success of startups depends on the ability of entrepreneur, and it is considered that investors evaluated marketability of startups as the most important factor in consideration of investment payback period. The result is similar to the result of previous studies on the determinants of investment determinants of angel investors and venture capitals. This paper is expected to make a contribution to the advancement of investment decision-making model for accelerators to discover startups with high possibility to grow and achieve more in incubation and investment.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the possibility of the character education and the concrete implementation process in the field of science education in accordance with the social demand for character education. Based on this purpose, the researchers tried to understand the specific character elements appearing in various science learning situations and to understand the qualities of each specific character elements that can be emphasized through science learning and the aspect of expression process in related learning situations. The researchers selected 11 students from the 7th and 8th graders in Seoul and developed and applied the 'Become a Science Teacher' mentor program in 2014 and 2015. Data collection was conducted through class recordings, mentor teachers' and assistant teacher's journal, artifacts, student journals, student portfolios, class listeners' essays for science class and analyzed qualitative data collected through constant comparison method. According to the result, we extracted 11 character elements and reorganized them into 16 specific character elements revealed in various learning situations based on the relationship between each character elements. The results of the study are eight specific character elements that can be emphasized through science learning and related learning situations. The eight specific character elements are 'responsibility for teaching behavior due to hierarchy of scientific knowledge structure, communication for forming scientific concept, empathic concern based on science learning experience, cooperation for promoting rationality of inquiry method, positive perception of scientific endeavor, respect for scientists' attitudes toward research, confidence in future scientific research, persistence in trial and error'. Based on the results of this study, we proposed the research methods of character in the field of science education in the future.
