Startups lack resources and manpower to build internal capabilities to strengthen market competitiveness; external cooperation such as joint research and networking plays is important. In this study, we analyzed the effect of startups' industry-university cooperation on organizational learning capability and innovation performance. Empirical results demonstrate the mechanism by which government R&D investment strengthens organizational learning capability and creates innovative results by promoting cooperation between startups and universities. First, industry-university cooperation strengthened organizational learning capability. An empirical analysis shows that startups increase internal capabilities through external cooperation. Second, startups' organizational learning capability had a significant effect on innovation performance. We analyze how organizations with high learning capabilities positively develop corporate innovation performance by having a culture of discovery and sharing new ideas. Finally, industry-university cooperation had different effects on organizational learning capability and innovation performance according to the previous experiences of startup founders. In particular, small- and medium-sized (startup) businesses and individual-based experience groups positively affected the creation of organizational learning capabilities and innovation performance through industry-university cooperation. Small- and medium-sized businesses and individual founders have a relatively small cooperative network with the outside world compared to founders of large companies, universities, and research institutes; therefore, they strengthen organizational learning capabilities through cooperation with universities. This study demonstrates that government should create policy inducements for cooperation with universities to maximize the R&D performance of startups. Criticism exists that lending support to startups and universities will hinder innovation performance; nevertheless, government investment plays a role in expanding intangible resources such as accumulating technologies, fostering high-quality human resources, and strengthening innovation networks. Therefore, the government should appropriately utilize the its authority to strengthen investment strategies for startup growth.

In the 21st century, as the emergence of the age of creative economy is expected, interest in the cultivation of creative talents required in society around the world is newly rising. Sustainable development education should not be limited to school education, but should be promoted and supported at all social education sites for the purpose of lifelong education. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to consider the relationship between the possibility of formal and informal learning and the development of capacity in higher education. Exploratory and qualitative research based on intensive groups was designed using several groups of formal and informal learning settings. In China, the creation of a creative economy is set as a major national policy direction for the new government. What is required for talented people in the creative economy era and how to educate them is becoming a major policy issue. The development of core competencies requires multiple contexts based on cognitive non-cognitive disposition. By combining the formal and informal learning environment within higher education for the purpose of a new learning culture, it can provide a variety of situations and improve competency development. While this study can identify aspects of formal and informal learning settings, the interdependencies between them are still difficult to grasp. However, practical implications can be seen clearly. In other words, based on the results, you can point out key aspects of competency acquisition that can be a key element in the higher education environment. As a result, this study analyzed implications for formal and informal learning environments for new ways of developing core competencies in higher education.

인공지능 기술의 발달과 함께, 4차 산업 혁명에 관한 사회적 논의가 이슈화됨에 따라 교육 학계도 변화의 목소리를 높이고 있다. 지식기반 사회에서 컴퓨터 활용 역량이 강조되면서, 코딩/소프트웨어 교육 등 테크놀로지 기반 교수학습이 교과목과 관계없이 주목받고 있다. 최근에는 오픈소스를 만드는 사람들에 대한 긍정적 인식이 생겨나면서부터, 그들을 메이커라 지칭하고 메이커를 양성하기 위한 운동이 확산되기 시작하였다. 학계에서도 이 운동을 수용하려고 시도하였으나, 관련 연구에서는 기존 테크놀로지 기반 교수학습과 구분되는 특성을 명백하게 보여주지 못했다. 본 연구는 메이커 교육의 시론적 연구로서, 이재호와 장준형(2017)이 제안한 메이킹 역량을 중심으로 이를 키워줄 수 있는 피지컬 컴퓨팅 교구를 조사하였고, 동시에 활용 가능성을 제안하였다. 초기에 제안된 교구의 활용방안은 현장 교사 3인의 전문가 검토를 받았으며, 그들이 제공한 조언을 참고하여 수정하였다. 보완된 활용방안은 메이킹 역량을 구성하는 분석역량, 설계역량, 구현역량으로 구분하여 제시하였다. 이를 통해 메이커 교육의 이론적 발전과 확산에 기여하고자 하였다.
