Due to developments in information technology and ensuing changes in the concept of time and space, the significance of national boundaries has been weakened, bringing to attention the heightened competition among nations. In order to respond to these transformations, the Korean government is increasing its efforts to raise the authenticity of the National Technology Qualification System(NTQS) by closely linking NTQS testing method and procedure to practical knowledge and skills in the industry field. This initiative is based on the recognition that the human resources development is a crucial factor in determining a nation's competitiveness. This study aimed, first of all, to diagnose the problems directly and indirectly affecting the testing method in the current NTQS. And then, differentiated solutions according to grade and improvements in the testing infrastructure were suggested. The ultimate purpose was to provide a blueprint for enhancing national competitiveness through increased authenticity and efficiency of the NTQS. Research methods applied during this study include: the collection and review of qualification-related literature; a series of conferences with leading experts; interviews with vocational educators and researchers from qualification-related institutes; a survey of national qualification holders from a variety of professions and industries; and participatory observation at qualification exam centers. This research suggested policy recommendations as follows; First, measures to improve for testing method of professional engineer Second, measures to improve for testing method of Master craftsman Third, measures to improve for testing method of Engineer, Industrial Engineer, Craftsman Fourth, plans for the establishment of operation system for a computerized testing Fifth, institutional perspective on establishing qualification infrastructure Sixth, operational perspective on establishing qualification infrastructure

사이버 가정학습은 오늘날 학교교육에서 발생하는 많은 문제점을 해결할 수 있는 새로운 교육방법으로서의 잠재력을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서의 평가시스템은 사이버 가정학습 체제에서 학습자의 수준에 반응하는 즉, 학습자의 성취도를 가장 정확하게 측정할 수 있는 문제를 추출하고 피험자의 수준에 알맞게 평가의 길이, 내용을 제시하며 평가 결과에 따라 난이도를 조절 할 수 있는 평가시스템이다. 그리고 IRT 기법을 사용하여 피험자의 능력 수준을 알기 위하여 준비된 모든 문항을 해결하지 않고 피험자의 능력 수준에 의해 선택된 몇 개의 문항만으로 피험자의 능력 수준을 측정할 수 있도록 하였다.

많은 학습 시스템에서 학습자의 수준에 맞는 맞춤학습을 위해서 학습자의 정확한 능력을 측정하는 평가 방법이 필요하다. 기존의 지필고사는 이를 위해서 학습자의 능력과 관련된 많은 수의 문항을 똑같은 시간과 순서대로 풀게 되므로 평가의 효율성 면에서 문제를 가지고 있다. 따라서 이러한 지필고사방식의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 문항정보이론과 컴퓨터의 처리성능을 결합시킨 컴퓨터화된 적응적 검사(CAT)에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. CAT는 지필고사의 문제점을 상당부분 해결했으나 문항간 연관성에 대해서는 독립을 가정하여 그렇지 않은 경우에는 비효율성을 가져올 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 문항반응이론 방식의 CAT가 가진 문제점을 해결하면서 성능이 개선된 베이지안 네트워크를 도입한 CAT를 제안한다. 이는 베이지안 네트워크에 평가문항을 세부분야별로 대입하여 한 문항에 대한 응답으로 그와 연관된 분야의 학습자 능력을 추론한다. 또한 실험을 통해 기존의 기법을 사용했을 때에 비해 학습자의 실제 능력치에 수렴하는 속도가 증가함을 보인다.

The medical records of diagnostic and testing information include sensitive personal information that reveals some of the most intimate aspects of an individual's life. The hospital information system (HIS) operates in a state of high risk which may lead to the possible loss to the IS resources caused by various threats. This research addresses twofold : (1) to perform asset identification ad valuation and (2) to recommend countermeasures for secure HIS network using case studies This paper applied a risk management tool CRAMM (Central Computer and Tele-communications Agency's Risk Analysis and Management Method) to assess asset values and suggest countermeasures for the security of computerized medical information of two large hospitals in Korea. CRAMM countermeasures are recommended at the reference sites from the network security requirements of system utilized for the diagnosis and treatment of patients. The results of the study will enhance the awareness of IS risk management by IS managers.

Testing device was newly designed and built to measure the dynamic contact angle. The measurement was made using microscope interfaced with computerized image analysis system while the dynamic condition being controled using Instron. As specimens for the experiment, two different types of fibers, i.e., hydrophilic and hydrophobic, were prepared. In case of hydrophilic fiber, the increase of twist level gave the increase of contact angle. However, in hydrophobic yarn the increase of twist level gave the decrease of contact angle. When saline was used as a telling liquid, the increase of the concentration gave the increase of contact angle. The results rationalized clearly on the basis of known concepts could be used in designing fabric structure for the improvement of comport performance.

In this paper, as a new measurement method to estimate the change of material condition, the simplified ultrasonic CT system, which uses the information of three directions, that is, $90^{\circ}$, $+45^{\circ}C$and $-45^{\circ}C$ about inspection plane is proposed. Use of simplified CT system has two merits: Firstly, the measurement time is very short compared with general CT. Secondly, it can detect sensitively small defect in vertical or slant direction about inspection plane because the obtained image is CT image calculated from three directions. From these merits, this method can be considered as an effective method to evaluate material conditions. The basic performance of the proposed method was confirmed through several specimens with several simple defects. In order to confirm the applicability of actual NDT, several kinds of welded specimens are investigated. The result showed that the CT image obtained had good agreement with actual defect of specimens.

컴퓨터 개별적응 검사(CAT: Computerized Adaptive Testing)란 각 학습자 수준에 적절한 형태의 검사를 개별적으로 실시함으로써 짧은 시간 안에 적은 수의 문항으로도 측정하고자 하는 제 특성을 보다 정확하고 효율적으로 측정할 수 있게 하는 기법이다. 이는 학습자 중심의 수준별 교육을 위한 학습 도구로서 이용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 문항반응이론 기반의 CAT를 학습에 적용시킴으로써 학습자의 평가결과에 따라 즉각적인 피드백을 통한 개별학습을 할 수 있고 일정수준의 성취단계에 이를 때까지 스스로 부족한 부분에 대한 평가를 계속 실시하여 완전학습에 도달할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 CAT 기반 학습시스템을 제시한다.

This paper proposes an adaptive tutoring system that provides learning materials dynamically according to the learners' teaming character and ability. Our system, in which a learning phase and a test phase are linked together, supports the personalized instruction-learning by providing the teaming materials by level in the learning phase according to the teaming ability estimated in the test phase. We design and implement a tutoring system consisted of an evaluation component and a learning component. An evaluation component uses a computerized adaptive test(CAT) based on item response theory to evaluate learners' ability while a learning component employs fuzzy level set theory so that teaming contents are provided to learners according to learners' level.

Internet service, a part of our life, requires the changes not only of environment in our life but also of people's sense of value. It also requires a quick change in the spear of education activities without exception. It brought a lot of changes into educational methods, our recognition on education, and various kinds of educational tools and environment. The introduction of WBI (Web Based Instruction) is one of the most important thing. This study have applied WBI to Industrial high school education to improve its quality and accomplish its effective teaching-learning. That is, we have applied CNC(Computerized Numerical Control) and Processing learning to machining center learning and have given students chances and various learning materials so that they could contact with new information. We aimed at testing and studying some effects on the improvements of learning accomplishment and motive in this study.
