This paper presents the process of developing, applying and increasingly updating curriculums to reinforce education in IT field through cooperation of industry and academy by the invention of government. In particular, the curriculums are developed and refined in order to satisfy both industry as users and academy as suppliers, using a spiral model, which was originally proposed for software development by Boehm. The result and the assessment are described where the developed curriculums have been applied at the universities in a national-wide base through a project by government. The basic principles of this model are general enough to be applied to curriculum development in various areas of college education.

In this study, the experimental apparatus for boiling point and melting point in science textbooks of various curriculums were analyzed. Science teachers' views on the difference between the experimental value and the value written in textbooks were inquired, too. Their views on the experimental apparatus, nd results of freezing point,melting point, boiling point, fractional distillation, and thermometer calibration were also investigated. The results of this study showed that the types of experimental apparatus for boiling point and melting point were somewhat dif-ferent with science textbooks and curriculum. The teachers' views were also various according to their background. In the experiment of the fractional distillat ion, a large number of teachers recognized mismatch between the exper-imental value and the value written in textbooks as mistake of textbook contents or problem of experiment itself. The teachers of chemistry background take higher recognition of the requirement of thermometer calibration than those of non-chemistry background in middle school.

The Purpose of this study was to convergence factors which affect the subject of basic dental hygienics in some dental hygiene students. The questionnaire was conducted in 450 dental hygiene students who had completed clinical practice. The level of self-confidence of the students was significantly higher if the level of satisfaction with the subject of basic dental hygienics was higher (r=0.365). Also, the level of self-confidence was significantly higher if the satisfaction with the major was higher (r=0.320) and the level of satisfaction with the major was significantly higher if the level of satisfaction with the subject of basic dental hygienics was higher (r=0.314). This study is expected to be used as a basic material for the development of systematic and convergence programs related with basic dental hygiene in connection with clinical practice.

Since talent model and core competence based training are in demand, this study aimed to develop proper talent model and major competencies for the Department of Library and Information Sciences at K University and propose appropriate educational subjects based thereon. To this end, related documents were analyzed, expert opinions were obtained, and a consumer survey was conducted, which yielded the following results. First, the talents required at the Department of Library and Information Sciences were broken down into different areas, such as curation, intelligence, service, technology, and professionalism. Second, fifteen major competencies were demanded from these talents, such as collection (in terms of collecting documents and information), organizational, and preservation skills. Third, in order to realize these talents and major competencies, K University has implemented additional subjects in its curriculum. Furthermore, it appears that the librarians' talents and their competencies in the field should be developed at the national level, while NCS core competence based training should also be developed and implemented.

This study explores convergence curriculum for design and data science, and applies data science knowledge on undergraduate design classes for designer's data literacy. First, related studies about data literacy education for non-data science major's, and data driven design project cases are explored, then design competency and data competency based on NCS are studied. Then this study developed 3 step design-data convergence curriculum model for designers' data literacy. The curriculum model is applied on case study classes, which are Big data and UX design(2) classes. The learning results and student's feedback of the case study classes are collected and analyzed to prove the design-data convergence curriculum, and the results provide findings and implications of the design-data convergence class case study.

This study was conducted to investigate the fitness of major courses according to the development and application of new curricula based on the NCS (National Competency Standards) of health-related departments at junior colleges. To accomplish this, 300 students of the health-related departments at junior colleges were surveyed from March 11 to March 30, 2016. The overall findings showed that their awareness of NCS, intent of integration and understanding of curriculum contents had a significant effect on the fitness for linkage and combination with existing education. Competency unit elements based on the newly developed NCS (job, work, qualification and training standardization of major courses) were linked with existing education. And students - who accept this - are rapidly assimilated into the new curriculum contents. In particular, they have a high understanding of the integrated development of standardized curricula between three major departments, unlike existing textbooks. In conclusion, the high perception and understanding of knowledge integration education are expected to have a positive effect on healthcare education, establishing an early health-related NCS system in the future, and improving site fitness for development of the contents of NCS.

In this study, we analyzed the descriptions of the electron movement model and the oxidation number change model presented in the 2009 revised curriculum and textbooks. We also investigated chemistry education major teachers' conceptions of limitations of each model. The electron movement model and oxidation number change model were presented in the curriculum and the textbooks. However, hybrid model was also presented which fail to grasp the limitation of each model. The hybrid model explains redox reactions of covalent bond compounds by electron movement model or even if it explains redox reactions by oxidation number change model, this explanations have the problem of confusing the virtual electron movement with the actual electron movement. A questionnaire and interviews were conducted to investigate chemistry education major teachers' perceptions of redox reactions. As results, many teachers did not recognize the limitations of each model and had difficulties to distinguish redox reactions from acid-base reactions because of the hybrid model.

Enhancement of computing education became an international phenominon including South Korea's revised national curriculum 2015. As the enhancement begins to focus on universal computing education, researches to investigate long-term effect of the enhancement is needed. To explore whether the reinforced computing education will bring which long-term impacts, this study investigated university students' experience on computer subject in their secondary schools, and major selection and achievement in a college computing course. As results, there was no statistically significant relation of taking the computer subject per se and major selection and achievement, but significant relation between contents of the subject, and major selection and achievement. This study has limitation on design and results lacking longitudinal data but contributes emphasizing need of longitudinal study to measure long-term effect of enhancement of computing education and providing clues of what impact it would bring.
