최근 소셜 네트워크를 이용한 학습 방법이 활발하게 연구되고 있다. 동일한 영역에 지식을 공유하고 새로운 정보를 웹에서 생성하는 등 집단지성 학습자들이 계속적으로 늘어가고 있으며, 특히 IT 학습을 위한 온라인기반 교육은 관심도와 직군에 따른 집단지성을 통한 효과적인 학습 성취도를 높일 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 웹 기반을 중심으로 한 IT집단지성 학습자들의 개인차를 파악하고, 각 특성에 따른 다양성을 적용하여 학습과정 중 자신에게 적합한 학습경로를 파악하여 학습의 지속적인 진행에 있어 정확한 자료를 제공하고 효율적인 학습의 진행이 이루어져 성취도를 높일 수 있도록 학습 성취도 예측 시스템을 연구 개발하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 IT습자들이 자신의 개인차를 파악하기 위해 학습의 유형, 학습몰입, 인지적 능력, 개인적 성향, 창의적 성향 등을 활용한 검사도구의 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 다음으로, IT 전공자 혹은 비전공자를 대상으로 예비조사를 실시하고 그 결과를 바탕으로 학습 성취도 예측을 가능하게 하기위한 시스템을 설계하고자 한다. 향후 본 연구의 결과로 학습자의 학습 성취도를 향상시키고, 예측 결과에 의한 집단지성 그룹을 좀 더 효과적으로 운영 할 수 있는 시스템을 구축할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study set out to analyze and compare gifted elementary students and non-gifted students in emotional intelligence and creative nature. To understand the characteristics of the former, and provide assistance for career education for both groups. For this purpose, the three following research questions were set: First, what kind of difference is there in emotional intelligence between gifted elementary students and non-gifted students? Second, what kind of difference is there in creative nature between gifted elementary students and non-gifted students? Third, what is the connection between emotional intelligence and creative nature in gifted elementary students and non-gifted students? For this study, 102 students from the gifted class and 132 students from non-gifted classes were selected. In total 234 questionnaires were distributed, and the results were analyzed. The results of this study were as follows. First, as a result of the independent sample T-test, there were noticeable differences in giftedness. Gifted students scored significantly higher than non-gifted students in creative nature. Second, as a result of the independent sample T-test, there were noticeable differences in the creative nature of gifted and non-gifted students. Gifted students scored significantly higher than non-gifted students in creative nature. Third, by analyzing the results found for emotional intelligence and creative nature with Pearson's product-moment correlation, there was a positive correlation between both emotional intelligence and creative nature in both groups of results.

The purpose of the present study is to examine elementary gifted students' perceptions on bias against creativity utilizing concept mapping approach. Twelve elementary gifted students participated in the group brainstorming and produced 55 final statements. Based on these statements, the multi-dimensional scale and hierarchial cluster analysis using dissimilarity matrix were performed. Average stress value was .30 which is appropriate for a two-dimensional concept mapping study. In addition, a questionnaire survey using likert 6 points scale was carried out targeting 132 elementary gifted students to analyze the degree of sympathy on their anti-creativity bias perception. The findings are as follow: First, four categories were concluded dividing gifted students' perceptions on bias against creativity from the hierarchial cluster analysis with X-Y coordinate matrix, these were 'Contradictory attitudes to creativity', 'Low evaluation for creativity', 'Forced to predetermined rules and ideas', and 'Aversion to new things'. Second, elementary gifted students were sympathetic to the order 'Forced to predetermined rules and ideas'(M=4.16), 'Aversion to new things'(M=3.68), 'Contradictory attitudes to creativity'(M=3.55) and 'Low evaluation for creativity'(M=3.30). This study aims to examine, analyze and categorize various relevant factors related to elementary gifted students' perceptions on bias against creativity. Implications of the study related to the present and future creative education were discussed in depth.

We investigated environmental problems related to clothing, and attempted their practical solutions using Future Problem Solving Program in order to cultivate the creative character in teenagers. We applied "teaching and learning plans" to seventy-seven the first graders of high school students in 2 classes in Gyeonggi-do, one hour per day for 3 weeks, from August 23 to September 8 2011. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS for Windows software(version 17.0). Mean differences in results between pretest and posttest were evaluated using Student's t-test. We selected 'production of fabrics, production of clothing, disposal and recycling of clothing and washing of clothing' as the learning theme in educational content factors of 'clothing culture in consideration of environment'. And we developed thirteenth teaching and learning plans and educational materials including 4 problems, 2 worksheets, 10 team worksheets, 7 video materials and 7 Power Point materials using Future Problem Solving Program(FPSP). The measurements of fluency, flexibility, originality and problem-solving ability are significantly improved. The level of creativity in the items of fluency, flexibility and originality, in particular, exhibited marked improvement, 'below-average' to 'above-average', regardless of academic records and gender. Problem-solving ability in female students was more effective than that of male, but it showed no significant correlation with academic records. The analysis of character-change showed the highest improvement in the awareness on the protection of environment, the character factor in the educational contents. Personalities, confidence, consideration and cooperation in learning method of FPSP also exhibited a significant improvement. But character-change did not correlate with academic records or gender. In the present study, we found that home economics has a positive effect on cultivating creative character. When we selectively and properly apply a course of creative problem-solving of FPSP and a course of creative output to students, we can increase their ability to solve problems, cultivate their creative character and further enhance their interest on home economics.

This study aims to verify the effects of the sewing practice class, developed for the cultivation of creativity and personality, the two qualities that the Korean Department of Education tried to emphasize in 2009 national curriculum. We conducted a single-group pretest-posttest experiment with the developed sewing practice class as a treatment. Results are as follows. First, the comparison results of before and after the developed sewing practice class showed that there were meaningful differences in creativity and its subfactors such as divergent thinking skill, problem solving ability, open-mindedness and patience. This is because in-class activities such as coming up with ideas by group discussion, creative activities and problem-solving experiences make the students be aware that they are the hosts of the class. It also affected their abilities of producing creative ideas and solving problems proactively. Second, the developed sewing practice class had an impact on students' personality and its subfactors like responsibility, diligence, consideration, communication skill, and collaborative ability. This practice class is based on personal activities which lead to the completion of the group assignment. This has not only emphasized individual responsibilities, but also highlighted the completion of group work and encouraged the flow of communication and cooperation among students. As a result, we concluded that this practice class helped nourish the participating students' personality.

We live in the modern society which is called as Knowledge-Information society. The national and social goal is to raise the creative person for preparing the rapidly changing society. Thus, the schools and families concentrate on and effort to enhance the creativity and problem solving ability. Specially, the school is pushing forward the STEAM education and Software education for raising the creativity person and enhancement of national competitiveness. In this study, we suggested for STEAM education the way how we utilize the App Inventor which was supported by MIT and came up as a computer programming language for Software education, and we verified and evaluated through professional group verification. We completed STEAM instructional design according to the results from the professional group verification, and we suggested the authentic instruction for STEAM education. In addition, we suggested the further prospects of Software education and instructions through going through the characteristics and application plan of App Inventer in terms of educational computer programming language.
