The number of college-oriented students in vocational high schools is increasing every year. For this reason, it is necessary to revise the curriculum of vocational schools, so that it is properly connected to college level education. In this paper, we try to find problems in computer curriculum by analyzing computer related courses currently taught by information computer departments in commerce information high schools. Based on the findings, we propose a desirable computer curriculum for commercial information high schools. We include the contents of each course, and suggest the way to administer the proposed curriculum in three year course of study.

The purpose of this research was on the operation activation for specialized high schools in Chungcheongbuk-do, and conducted a survey of chief teachers of Practical Art Subject and heads of each subjects in 32 specialized high schools in district about the system reform of vocational high school, promotion of characterization for each subject, modification of curriculum, reinforcement of direction guide, of which results were analyzed. Also, another survey of small and middle businesses was conducted to investigate the demand for human resources for industrial businesses in Chungcheongbuk-do and specialized abilities required by companies. Through the study, the reform of operation activation for specialized high schools in Chungcheongbuk-do were suggested as follows. First, Specialized high schools should more focus on educating application of a computer and the basic abilities in foreign language at the request of industry. Second, If more than 80% of vocational high school graduates go to junior colleges or universities, specialized high schools should reform their operation like general high schools. Third, Specialized high schools should expand the operation of customized curriculum for neighboring industry to raise employment rate. Fourth, Specialized high schools in Chungcheongbuk-do should reform their courses which can provide students with fundamental knowledge to work in industry related to BT and IT, as Osong medical complex and Ochang IT industrial complex are expanding gradually. Fifth, Employees in companies should be applied as guest teachers, and the principal should have a right to autonomy to operate their own curriculum. Sixth, 5 years rotation system for public schools should be revised to more than 10 years rotation system for special subjects in specialized high schools. Therefore, teachers will have ownership of the school by the revised system.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between major subjects of industrial circle high school and mathematics matched with present 2007 revision curriculum. We compare and analyze learning contents in industrial circle's math education via various aspects including methods of explanations, contents domains, and contents levels. The analysis followed by the research study performed with literature study of curriculums and text books. Our research indicates that school curriculum should be reflected relation between industrial high school's each major course and mathematics, so each major course curriculum should be different. Many contents beyond high school mathematics were founded. Hence suitable mathematical maturity and levels within standard high school math curriculum should be considered when one make text books of major course in industrial circle high school.

The importance of web accessibility becomes important due to a legal obligation to comply with web accessibility. However, there are few educational programs developed on web accessibility for vocational high schools in Korea. In this study, to explore the future possibilities of web accessibility curriculum the survey with information teachers of 97 vocational high schools was conducted along with review of the curriculums of the domestic and foreign web accessibility educational programs. The survey results indicate that (1) the information teachers have only basic conceptual understandings on web accessibility and (2) they have little intention on teaching web accessibility at their vocational high schools due to current educational conditions and the lack of web accessibility knowledge. The results of this study could be employed as references for the web and web accessibility educational courses at the vocational high schools.

제 7차 교육과정에서 상업계 고등학교 컴퓨터 교육은 정보 처리에 관한 기초 전문 지식과 기술을 습득하게 하여 정보화 시대에 대처할 수 있는 능력을 개발하여 우수한 직업인이 될 수 있는 소양을 기르는데 초점을 두고 있으나 현재의 컴퓨터 관련 교육과정은 이를 따라가지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 시대가 요구하는 방향에 따라 정보통신 관련 교과목을 필수로 하여 멀티미디어, 웹 프로그래밍, 데이터베이스 등의 다양한 교과목을 추가하는 교육과정을 제안한다. 제안된 교육과정은 현재 상업계 교육과정을 향후 교과목별 단원 및 학년별 단위 시수 편성과 조정 등의 개선 방안을 제공하는데 있다.

본 연구는 공업계 고등학교에서 효율적인 로봇교육을 위하여 로봇에 관심과 흥미가 있는 학생들을 대상으로 로봇 동아리를 조직하고, 경진대회용 배틀 로봇을 제작하는 데 필요한 교육과정을 개발하였다. 이를 위해 첫째로 국내외 경진 대회와 문헌 고찰을 통해 다소 모호한 용어인 배틀 로봇을 정의하고, 에듀테인먼트 로봇으로 구분하였으며, 공업계 고등학교에서 배틀 로봇 제작이 갖는 교육적 활용가치를 탐색하였다. 둘째, '2007년 개정' 교육과정 중에서 '로봇 기초'와 '로봇 제작' 교육과정의 성격과 목표를 분석하였고, 셋째, 배틀 로봇 제작 교육과정을 개발하기 위해 로봇 동아리를 실험대상으로3라운드에 걸친 실험연구를 통해 공업계 고등학교 로봇 동아리 프로그램 적용에 의한 배틀 로봇 제작에 적합한 교육과정을 개발하였다. 로봇이 미래의 기술로 주목받게 됨에 따라 우리나라에서도 로봇 교육이 활성화되고 있는 지금, 배틀 로봇 제작이 학생들에게 체험 교육의 도구가 될 뿐 만 아니라, 공업계 고등학교에서 다루는 로봇 교과목 및 이와 관련된 전문 교과목의 교육효과를 극대화할 수 있는 도구가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Commerce information high schools offer diverse computer related courses, and a number of different textbooks were published for each course. Since each corse covers broad area, the textbook has difficulties in keeping up with the rapid change. It is even more difficult to find textbooks that suit the needs and requirements of a school. Very frequently, chapters on application software cover software packages that are different from what school has in terms of producer or version. This kind of difficulties can be overcome by subdividing textbooks into lessons, and selecting lessons and textbooks for them that are most appropriate for each school. This paper proposes a way to subdivide computer textbooks into lessons, and discusses the advantages that come from it.

The purpose of this study is to explore vocational high school students' understanding levels and misconceptions regarding the time-efficiency of algorithms. In this study, a questionnaire with nine questions was developed. The questionnaire is base on three misconceptions about the time-efficiency of algorithms that are examined through prior studies. The questionnaire was applied to 51 students who completed a programming course. The result shows that the students didn't sufficiently understand the concept of time-efficiency of algorithms and several common misconceptions appeared repeatedly. Finally, teaching strategies using simulation and assesment framework for algorithm's time-efficiency were presented and some recommendations were suggested for refining the curriculum relating computer programming and algorithms.
