본 논문은 현재 패턴구성 과정에 있는 1년 차 영국과 한국 학생들의 교육체제를 연구 비교 하므로써 그 차이점을 알아보고 궁극적으로 나아가야 할 방향에 대해서 연구되었다. 우선 두 나라의 교육체계에 관해 간단한 배경 설명 후에 학제의 시작이 두 나라 사이에 큰 차이점이 있음을 강조하였다. 본 논문은 일차자료와 이차자료를 모두 이용하였으며 설문지 내용은 지면 할애상 생략하였다. 본문에서는 첫 번째로 강의 방법에 대해 알아보았으며 두 나라간의 교수 형식으로는 큰 차이를 볼 수 가 없었다. 그 다음으로는 교수의 자격 요건 이었으며 연령대가 다른 차이점 이외에는 큰 차이점을 볼 수 없었다. 또한 교수법에 있어 가장 중요한 열정과 동기부여 등을 강조하였다. 이론적인 수업은 한국의 대학에서 강조된 반면 영국에서는 실질적인 부분을 강조함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고, 한국의 경우 대부분의 학생들이 수업의 진행을 위해 교과서를 구입해야 하는 반면 영국 학생들의 경우 자세한 설명이 첨부된 복사물을 받아 수업을 받고 있었다. 그 이유는 학생들의 수업능력 차이에 있으며 또 한가지는 경제적 문제라고 할 수 있다. 한국의 학생 정원은 40명이었으며 대부분의 학생들이 거의 포기하지 않고 졸업을 하는 반면, 본인이 조사한 대학의 경우, 25명의 정원으로 시작하였으나 여러 가지 개인 사정으로 조사 당시 15명의 인원수만 남아 있었다. 적은 수의 학생수는 곧 수업의 질과 연관됨을 알 수 있었다. 두 나라의 학생수업 능력과 학생 수가 많이 달라 영국 학생들의 경우 선생에게 의지하려는 경향을 많이 보인 반면 한국학생들은 독립적인 특징들을 보였다. 두 나라 학생들 모두 과제물을 많이 받고 있었으며 2학년 말에는 의상발표회를 하는 공통점을 보였다. 평가 방법상에서는 큰 차이가 보였다. 영국의 경우 평가에 관한 사항을 아주 세분화하여 공식적으로 책자를 만들어 그 규칙을 철저히 지키도록 한 반면, 한국의 경우에는 정해진 세부사항 없이 크게 ABCD체제의 방식과 출석상황, 중간고사, 기말고사, 과제물 완성도 등을 퍼센티지로 나누어 평가하고 있었다. 학생들에게 주어지는 균등한 기회나 평등의 문제도 학생들의 자격, 신분 등이 거의 다르지 않은 한국에서는 그리 중요한 사항은 아니었으나 다민족 국민으로 이루어진 영국의 학생들에게는 아주 민감한 사항임을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to derive suggestions and implications to strengthen the science curriculum continuity of Korea through comparative analysis with focus on the continuity of science curriculum in six countries (Taiwan, the United Kingdom, Finland, the United States, Canada, Korea). Original and Korean translations of the national curriculums of each country gathered from NCIC comparatively analyzed the contents of the 'Moon' and 'Rock cycle' based on features of curriculum configuration, vertical, and lateral connectivity. As a result, it was found that the concepts of Big Ideas or Cross-cutting Concept was utilized internationally to strengthen the linkage between grades or subjects. In particular, dealing with the aspect of the system was important. In the comparison of countries for the content, Korea deals with the most frequency on the 'Moon' and 'Rock cycle'. The contents of the chapter about the moon were simply repeated from elementary to high school levels with some variation. Korean science curriculum holds different perspectives and contents about the Rock cycle compared to other countries. In conclusion, Korea's curriculum requires appropriate tools to strengthen curriculum linkage and by doing so, it will be able to take advantage of the systems approach. Moreover, it is important to constitute the curriculum based on a sufficient understanding of the learning development of students according to their grade levels for the effective application of the curriculum.

Since quality assurance and enhancement (QAE) raises the fundamental issue of the survival of higher education institutions and national competitiveness, guides on quality assurance (QA) are popular both domestically and worldwide. Despite the focus in many countries on trying to establish and implement QA systems, no clear investigation has been conducted on what actually happens in the institutions. Therefore, the present study examines the quality control system of the UK at an institutional level by focusing on the case of Scotland QAE. As Scottish QAE especially emphasizes student engagement and quality culture, this study investigates the present QAE situation in the institution and current ideas for better future practices by analyzing the perceptions of internal stakeholders' from the University of Edinburgh, School of Education, based on the stakeholder theory and implications for other contexts. The stakeholder analysis results demonstrate the successful application of QAE with a high level of understanding and stakeholder interest. However, the current strategy is missing certain opportunities for staff and students. Therefore, further information disclosure, formative evaluation, better communication and administrational supports are required for improved practice.

The aim of this study is to look into the didactical background for teaching proportional reasoning in elementary school mathematics and offer suggestions to improve teaching proportional reasoning in the future. In order to attain these purposes, this study extracted and examined key ideas with respect to the didactical background on teaching proportional reasoning through a theoretical consideration regarding various studies on proportional reasoning. Based on such examination, this study compared and analyzed textbooks used in the United States, the United Kingdom, and South Korea. In the light of such theoretical consideration and analytical results, this study provided suggestions for improving teaching proportional reasoning in elementary schools in Korea as follows: giving much weight on proportional reasoning, emphasizing multiplicative comparison and discerning between additive comparison and multiplicative comparison, underlining the ratio concept as an equivalent relation, balancing between comparisons tasks and missing value tasks inclusive of quantitative and qualitative, algebraic and geometrical aspects, emphasizing informal strategies of students before teaching cross-product method, and utilizing informal and pre-formal models actively.

Angle concept is widely used in all mathematics curriculums and is a basic concept in geometric domain. Since angle have a multifaceted and affect subsequent learning, it is necessary for students to understand various angle concepts. In this study, Singapore, U.K., Australia, and U.S. are selected as comparable countries to examine the angle-related contents and learning process that appear in the curriculum as a whole, and then look at the perspectives and the size aspects of angle in detail and give implications to the Korean curriculum based on them. According to the analysis, the four countries except Korea, supplement angle, complement angle, angles on a straight line, angles at a point, and finding angle were explicitly covered in the curriculum. And most countries gradually covered angle-related contents over several years, compared to Korea which intensively studied in a particular school year. In common, definition of angle was described as static, measurement of angle was described as dynamic. But in Korean curriculum, dynamic views on angles are described later and less compared to other countries, and range of angle size was narrower than in other countries'. From this comparison, this study suggest to discuss how to place and develop various contents of characteristics of angle in curriculum, address the angle using both static and dynamic perspectives, and introduce the angle size as the amount of rotation to learn the reflex angle, $180^{\circ}$, $360^{\circ}$ angle.

Great Britain and the United States and Finland are having an interest in long policy subject about child design education through early design education. And they approaches and practices it systematically. The research about the design learning program instance of advanced nation of primary school's design education for various objective is necessary for use with the fundamental reference data for an elementary design education. And so, This research presented the program instance investigation and analysis result of British primary school's design education. U.K is teaching an primary design education from two subjects of Art & Design and Design and Technology which is a legal subject with national curriculum. The analysis result of design relation unit learning program of two subjects is: Design relation unit learning programs of 'Design and Technology' subject's 20 unit which except 4 food relation unit is largely scientific engineering contents that include utility function contents in part. The reason is as behavior styles based on Design process solve problems scientifically & rationally. Design relation 6 units in subject of Art & Design which except the units which relates with the pure fine arts and architecture in 19 units is aesthetic-symbolic and utility-functional contents largely. And so, the result was analyzed about relation of scientific-engineering content of 'Arts & Design' subject is insufficient comparing with 'Design and Technology' subject Specially, I think that the design relation's unit learning program instances of 'Design and Technology' subject of the British primary school which have been presented by this research paper is a possibility becoming one reference model for a program development. And so I expects that this research could be applied in the program development for the primary design education of primary teacher & education agency.

This study examined the curriculum of 23 graduate schools of archival sciences in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia and 25 graduate schools of archival sciences in Korea, and compared core knowledge categories. The average number of courses in Korea and other countries was similar, but each university in other countries set required courses, and few in Korea. As a result of comparison by knowledge category, all knowledge categories in North America were opened as individual courses, while the UK and Australia did not open knowledge categories of outreach, instruction, advocacy, and knowledge categories of professionalism separately. In Korea, the category of outreach, instruction, advocacy, the knowledge category of professionalism, and the knowledge category of information technology have not been established separately, while courses related to history and administration are subdivided. In order to reform the archival science education in Korea, the knowledge categories for archival professionals should be prepared and the guidelines and certification standards for the education should be established.
