  • A study has been made prior to the emphatic research to see how the curriculum of the Library Science Departments, in general, has developed to date. In the principles of the composition of the curriculum of library science, research has been conducted to determine what decisions will be the most appropriate for the changing trend of the society, regarding the matters of general specialization versus subject specialization education, the definition, change and operation of the core subject, the expansion of the elective specialized subjects and the composition of the curriculum by types of the library, and the curriculum composition in terms of subject specilization. The curriculum should consist of a unified series of courses and other educational experiences, designed to meet specific program objectives. Principles and concepts should be emphasized, over routines and techniques. All students should study certain fundamental 'core' subjects, as well as more specialized electives. General education (studies outside of librarianship) should be a major component of the total education of the librarian. Fundamental core subjects should be treated as introductory courses covering deep studies that can provide the most inclusive information related to the library science field. They should be offered as pre-requisites required of all the students entering the Department of Library Science. Specialized subjects and interdisciplinary courses comprising subject concentration should be offered as electives at the advanced level.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the teachers' and parents' perceptions on the 2015 revised national curriculum, which integrated humanities and sciences. In order to do so, 102 high school teachers and 68 high school parents were surveyed on their understanding of the 2015 revised curriculum including core competence, student-participatory class, and process-oriented assessment. The results are as follows. First, the teachers had a higher understanding of the purpose, contents, and major revisions of the 2015 revised curriculum than the parents. Second, among the core competencies presented in the revised 2015 curriculum, both teachers and parents considered communication, community and self-management competencies important. Third, both groups said that student-participatory classes and process-oriented evaluation has increased since the implementation of the 2015 revised curriculum.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the science curriculum of Korea and Estonia with a focus on the chemistry domain, and draw implications for reference when revising the next curriculum. To this end, the overall curriculum design centered on science subjects and the core concepts of chemistry covered in subjects corresponding to the common curriculum of the two countries were compared. As a result of the analysis, first, Estonia specifically suggested how the core competencies suggested in the general lecture were specifically connected to science subject. In addition, there was a characteristic that the inquiry function, attitude, and value were specifically presented in the curriculum document. Second, as a result of analyzing the core concepts of chemistry, most of the concepts dealt with in Korea were also dealt with in Estonia. However, Estonia has a tendency to deal more qualitatively with broader concepts. The concepts covered in the chemistry subject exceeded the level of the common curriculum in Korea, but this subject also had the characteristic of attempting a qualitative approach.

  • The goal of this study was to develop a curriculum based on practice and job competency, reflecting opinions on the required job competence of nail practitioners and professionals related to nail beauty. Through in-depth interviews with nail experts, the research focuses on developing nail beauty competency-based curriculum and curriculum profiles that reflect practitioners' needs of job competence in the field. In-depth interviews with 11 field experts and surveys of 154 people were conducted to develop a competency-based curriculum for beginner nail hairdressers. The results of this study show that the existing 38 National Competency Standards (NCS) job competencies were reduced to 21 job competencies. In addition, based on the common opinions of experts who reflect the current trend, two tasks on "eyelashes" and "waxing" were added, and they were modified and supplemented with 23 core competencies. The development of a competency-based curriculum and educational programs for nail beauty was performed based on the requirements of the core competencies investigated and the development of a systematic map for the core competencies of beginner nail technicians and hairdressers. In conclusion, the need for professional education and training for nail hairdressers is growing, and it can be seen that a curriculum building multi-faceted abilities is needed for their qualifications as experts. This study found that it is necessary to develop interpersonal communication skills that include marketing elements other than practical skills such as personality and customer response methods in the nail beauty curriculum.

  • The purpose of the study was to define five science core competencies introduced in the 2015 revised science curriculum with each component and practical indicators into the frame. Science teachers on site could use it in teaching and developing science program to equip students with the competencies to creatively solve problems which is the aim of science education in the $21^{st}$ century. To develop this frame, we contacted 10 experienced science educators and collected the data through a questionnaire. We coded all responses and categorized into the components and practical indicators of each competency which were all compared with those from well-known theories in order to validate. We then contacted other 35 science educators again to construct the validity to fill out the survey of Likert scale. The finalized science core competency included 19 components in total with practical indicators that can be observable and measurable in the classroom. This frame was used to see how it fits into a STEAM program. The finding was that two different topics of the STEAM program displayed the different description of science core competency usage, which could be used as the prescription of the competency as to whether or not it is more promoted in science class.
