This study investigated the Chinese national university entrance examination (Gaokao) in mathematics administered in 2009 and 2010 to draw out some implications on the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) in mathematics of Korea. To evaluate the attainments of basic mathematical skills and multilateral abilities required for further studies in university, the Gaokao mathematics is set in two forms(Art/Science), based on the Chinese national mathematics curriculum. The types of items in the Gaokao mathematics are multiple-choice, single-answer, and write-out-answer. The mathematical abilities that the Gaokao mathematics evaluates are mathematical reasoning, operation, geometrical imagination, application, and creativity. As a result, some implications on the Korean CSAT are drawn out in terms of the level of difficulty, the types of items, the arrangements, and the scores of items.

This study was conducted to compare the trends of students by university admission type. The subjects of this study are 3,025 students. The findings are as follows. First, H university selection factors were the same for each admission type. Second, there was no difference in GPA by admission type. Third, the university satisfaction level of students in the comprehensive school card admission system was the highest. Fourth, the students in the comprehensive school card admission system rated the university's education performance the highest. In conclusion, we can make a policy suggestion that the comprehensive school card admission system is appropriate.

Korean universities have selected candidates through admission officer system since 2009. However, the universities now have to settle several problems that they faced at the first stage of the system. Therefore, this research, taking the admission screening data of J University as examples, aims to discuss how differently the weight of the screening factors appears depending on the subjects related to college entrance, such as parents, teachers, and admission officers. The research indicates that the subjects have different perspectives about entrance screening requisites. Parents and teachers more value the student record that is a countable indicator than the letter of self-recommendation that is a uncountable indicator. However, it also indicates that admission officers take attitude against parents and teachers.

본 논문에서는 판단 보조 시스템으로써의 기능을 수행하는 Artificial Neural Network(ANN) 시스템의 응용과 설계를 수행하였다. ANN 시스템의 응용에 있어 실질적으로 활용이 가능한 미 경영대학원 진학 희망자들을 위한 학교 선별 시스템을 구현하였다. 미국 소재의 대부분의 경영대학원에서는 입학 지원자의 평가항목으로써 대학평점(GPA), TOEFL(Test Of English as Foreign Language), GMAT(Graduate Management Admission Test), Essay 그리고 실무 경력을 요구한다. 본 논문에서 소개하는 학교 선별 시스템에서는 이러한 평가 항목 중 객관적인 평가가 가능하고 수치화 할 수 있는 세가지 요소만을 고려했다. 즉, Essay와 실무 경력과 같은 평가항목은 각 학교별 다소 주관적인 평가가 이루어지기 때문에 배제하고 보다 객관적이라고 할 수 있는 GPA, TOEFL. GMAT 만을 평가 항목으로 고려했다. 일반적으로 경영대학원에서는 최소의 TOEFL 점수를 요구하고 있다는 점을 고려해 TOEFL 점수에 우선 순위를 두고 각 학교를 크게 4개의 그룹으로 나누어 4개의 각기 다른 Network를 설계했다 최소 5년 이상의 유학 상담 경험이 있는 현직 전문가들을 통해 본 논문에서 소개하는 시스템의 성능을 검증 받았다.

The purpose of this paper is to discover effective teaching and learning methods for improving low level mathematic matriculants', who passed the early decision program, problem solving abilities by analyzing their error patterns in the special lecture for basic mathematics in P University. In this paper, we examine the matriculants' understanding and errors on the fundamental concepts of function, and continuity and differentiability of function based on the pre-examination. We also measure the their academic achievement in the special lecture for basic mathematics, and analyze the differences of error patterns between pre-test and post-test result on the concepts of continuity and differentiability of function.

This study aims to explore the direction of improvement that considers the talent image of science high schools in the admissions process. To this end, first, the talent image and competencies of science high schools were divided into 'publicity' and 'efficiency,' 'execution' and 'achievement' types, and 'publicity & execution' was predominant in most cases. Next, a total of 28 science high school teachers, education experts, and middle school teachers were surveyed on the degree of reflection of talent image and the direction of improvement in the admissions process of three science high schools. The results of the survey are as follows: first, the evaluation of 'publicity' was very limited in the first stage of admissions process, and selection based on 'achievement' was high. Second, there was a strong tendency to select based on 'efficiency & achievement' in the second stage of interview evaluation. Third, we need to improve the selection of students who fit the 'publicity & execution' type of talent image by introducing 'publicity & execution' type of talent image by introducing 'write a competency-oriented self-introduction letter, reflect other subjects' grades and comparative studies in the school life record, and experts' interviews' to the first-stage of admissions process. Fourth, convergence and open-ended questions that enable divergent thinking should be jointly submitted to reflect the 'publicity & execution' type of talent image in the second stage of interview evaluation. In conclusion, the direction of improvement that considers the talent image of science high schools in the admissions process should be changed to competency-oriented in the first-stage of admissions process and in the second stage of interview evaluation consisting of open-ended questions.

This study was to propose new formats for the records of achievement and the student's school life. For the college entrance examination to select excellent students with great potential and for the public education to be normalized through performance assessment, the implications of the reformats of the student achievement are significant. To carry out the study, 658 of students, 230 of teachers from 4 middle schools and 10 high schools, and 24 of college admission officers from 8 universities participated in the questionaries that asked the problems of the current assessment system and the future directions based on the desirable reformats of the school records. The collected opinions and advices from the participants were considered to understand the current status, possible directions, and ways to apply the performance assessment to the college entrance examination.

The purposes of this study are to analyze the higher education admission policy of France and to draw policy implications for Korea. For this study, literature reviews and interviews (face-to-face, email, telephone) were adopted for main research methods. The major findings were as follows: First, baccalaur?at diploma is necessary for higher education admission in France but each higher education has different admission policy according to their legal status. University has open enrollment policy and has no student selection process. Other higher institutions such as grands ?coles select students based on students' academic achievements. Second, baccalaur?at is national diploma which shows successful conclusion of the upper secondary education and gives right of access to higher education. This diploma is awarded to candidates who have passed a series of standardized written and oral tests drawn up at national level (10/20points). Third, students' academic achievements in high schools are major criteria for admission for higher institutions which has student selection process. Fourth, entrance exams implemented at college level are various according to higher institution. Last, 'Admission Post-bac-APB' site is used to support and facilitate the whole admission process. Based on these findings, several policy implications were suggested.

대학입학전형에는 평가에 영향을 미치는 여러 가지 전형요소들이 있으며 각 대학는 이들 전형요소에 반영율을 정하여 총점으로 학생을 선발하고 있다. 그러나 실제로 각 전형요소가 학생선발에 미치는 기여율은 대학이 고려한 반영율과는 다르기 때문에 문제가 일어날 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 각 전형요소들의 반영율이 주어졌을 때 기여율을 계산하는 방법을 소개하고 전형요소별로 대학에서 원하는 기여율이 되도록 하는 반영율을 역산하는 방법을 소개한다. K대학의 실제 자료를 위의 제안된 방법에 적용하여 대학이 정한 반영율과 실제의 기여율이 얼마나 다른지를 조사하고 대학이 원하는 기여율이 되도록 하기 위하여 전형요소별 반영율을 계산하였다.
