This study examines the impact of national economic restructuring on regional development patterns. Korea's development over the last decade has been characterized by a rapid economic restructuring towards the information economy. This economic restructuring has had significant impacts on regional development patterns. The most remarkable feature is a clear coreperiphery disparity in terms of levels of informatization. Seoul showed an extraordinarily high level of informatization. The process of regional development in the information era is marked by an intensified spatial division of labor, which articulates with the pre-existing pattern of regional disparity. Information infrastructrue improvements for regional development do not necessarily result in reductions in regional unevenness. There is an urgent need to develop the integrated regional informatization strategy.

One of the main reasons of information divide of multi-cultural family is caused by language barrier that is associated with low education level. In addition the social problem can be triggered by the information divide that may increase the gap of economic inequality. With respect to the overall capability of accessibility of digital devices and the level of data utilization, the parent of muiti-cultural family's level is inferior to that of the parents of an ordinary family. However the traditional learning contents management system for those parents is not appropriate to decease the gap of the information divide. To handle this problem, it is necessary to construct a customized learning contents management system that is used to support the education of the parents of multi-cultural family depending on the level of understanding the learning contents written in korean. In this paper we design the korean to korean translation based learning contents management system and show the result of its prototype.

Recent information and technology is strongly targeted at the young generation, but little research has been undertaken on the older generation. The 55~79 age group was over 1,000,000 people in 2012. As a result, the problems of the information gap and of job creation for older people is becoming a critical social challenge. Because of this need, this research aims to suggest study method to reduce the information gap through informatization education for people of advanced age. Through this, older people can be mentors and play a key role in society as well as contributing to reduce social conflicts. This research is undertaken based on elderly IT volunteers, and is expected to solve the information gap problem through advanced age IT education and job creation with talent donation.

Owing to recent advanced techniques in information and communication technology(ICT), our daily life has been changing very quickly and our life style has also been affected greatly. In the current knowledge and information society, the disabled can have a right to enjoy benefits of advanced ICT technologies. However, there is a barrier called digital divide so that the disabled have some difficulties to communicate to the world with ICT technologies. In this sense, our job is to close digital divide and let the disabled enjoy benefits of ICT technologies. Recently there have been some research works to close digital divide between the disabled and the non-disabled. Among various attempts to close digital divide, improving web accessibility for the disabled is the biggest concern since web is a still representative tool among ICT tools. The purpose of this paper is to propose some practical guidelines for improving web accessibility for the disabled. The proposed improvement guidelines are developed based on the existing web accessibility guidelines and are upgraded for more adaptable to the disabled. Our principles are based on the following philosophy. First, any input transmission must be more confirmed. Second, prevent any instant request. Third, allow the disabled to record or store the contents if necessary. Fourth, reduce physical movement for the disabled. Fifth, provide more interaction tools for the disabled.

The scope of key competency of engineering majors has been expanded for last decades. Nowadays, not only major knowledge but also extracurricular knowledge such as business, economics, law and so on are regarded as prerequisites for successful performance at work sites. In this context, we defined several determinants of key competency classified into attitude, knowledge and skill, and investigated their relative importance perceived by Korean companies (n=145). Based on the results, the gap between key competency of engineering majors and academic curriculums of universities (n=182) was analyzed. Subsequently, regional difference and qualitative disparity between universities were also revealed.
