The subjects of this study were 101 high school teachers in Chonbuk province. Their responses to the questionaires were analyzed by frequencies and percentiles. The major findings of the study were as follows. 1. Most high school had only a little educational facilities for learning of clothing construction of, if any, they could only show examples in practice. 2 In case of making clothes, students who sew by hand carried out drafting and cutting on their desks in the classroom. When they have practical training, 56.4% of them cheese only one of one-piece dress trousers, and skirt which are presented in the textbook. The related teachers indicated that content composition of the texbook was not fit for the purpose of the students level, and also pointed out the deficiencies of educational facilities, lack of teacher’s research and training, and lack of school hours of evaluation, practical skill was performed in parallel with paper-test at 73.3%. 3. Pajamas and one-piece dress presented in the textbook were the most suitable for the practice at 64.7%. They hoped that illustrations in textbook are so large and full that clothes made through the practice can be worn. Also they hoped that their opinions and wearable guidance will be reflected in the textbook. They emphasized the need of western clothing construction unit because of acquistion of elementary knowledge. The current amount of content composition was enough or excessive. In addition, they understood the curriculum of high school is rather closely connected with that of middles school. Their recognition of the rate of difficulty is very similar to that of other school teachers. They recognized the goal of learning should be applied to the real home life.

In this paper, questions from the last three years' appointment examinations for secondary teachers for informatics computer subjects are classified in a way to fit thirteen basic mandatory courses, for which the composition of scores and the number of questions tested were examined. Of these thirteen basic mandatory courses, questions from six basic mandatory courses with high frequency of assessment were analyzed on their score composition based on the evaluation area. In addition, questions testing knowledge in C language were analyzed separately. The results show scores for the curriculum content subjects ranged from 0% to 17.1%, and the ratio of questions tested from curriculum content subjects 0% to 15.8%. In addition, questions from three courses showed a large deviation in scores for each year. Second, the score composition based on the evaluation area showed a large discrepancy, ranging from 0% to 52.0%. Lastly, the questions tested on the C language exhibited high score on average at 33%.

The Korean pharmacy education has introduced new curriculum since 2011. In the new curriculum, pharmacy students have been provided strenthen experimental education and clinical pharmacy has been more important than previous curriculum. Thus, faculties in the college of pharmacy should prepare the circumstances correlated with the changed curriculum. To accomplish successful setting, all faculty and practice experts must work together and need financial assisstant from the college. However, there are many different obstacles among 35 colleges of pharmacy in Korea. In order to narrow a gap among students and find the way to overcome it together, we studied the problem of preparation process in Korean colleges of Pharmacy. We studied the process of practical education in college of pharmacy by means of self-reporting questionnaire from November 29th 2012 to December 31th 2012. The questionaire comprised of syllabus related to clinical pharmacy, the number of professor in charge of clinical pharmacy or pharmacotherapeutics, the plan of securing faculties in the field of clinical pharmacy, the budget, site, instrument for preparing experimental education, the lesson time number of experimental education, MOU, education and treatment of preceptor in the practice site and committee of experimental education in the college. Total 21 of 35 colleges participated in this survey. They showed different composition of syllabus, budget, the circumstances of experimental education, the education and treatment of preceptor. Most colleges are unclear the site and preceptor of experimental education and they did not contract the MOU with the sites. 9 of 21 also did not have the committee of experimental education in the colleges. From 2013, some colleges of pharmacy start actual experimental education. Inadequete preparation and different quality of education can make student incomplete pharmacists, so it will be negative effect on public health. To overcome challenge and obtain desirable goal, funding/administrative assistant from the college and networking within 35 colleges of pharmacy are needed.

As for the departments related to fashion in China, design-related subjects were most frequently found, irrespective of the title of the fashion department, and the subjects concerning fashion marketing were widely distributed. 6. It seems that the curriculum for fashion colleges in China have been affected by the characteristics of the university before absorptive integration and setting based on the local characteristics rather than by the characteristics of the college. 7. For the curriculum of Korea, it is necessary to divide theoretical and practical ones and to develop practical subjects in association with experts in actual fields.

This study explored the changes in storytelling styles in high school first-year textbooks between the 2007 Revised National Curriculum of Mathematics and the 2015 Revised National Curriculum of Mathematics. The results are indicated as follows. First, the quantitative aspect of storytelling gradually increased in the textbook aligned with the 2015 Revised National Curriculum of Mathematics. Second, as for types of storytelling, the real-life connection and academic convergence types appeared most frequently, followed by mathematical history inquiry types, decision-making types, and tool utilization types. Third, storytelling appeared most frequently in 'main-body' of a lesson in terms of textbook content composition, followed by 'introduction', 'lesson materials', and 'evaluation'. This study implies that more diverse stories need to be developed; including the mathematical history inquiry types, the decision-making types and the tool use types. Textbooks should be organized not that the piecemeal storytelling presented in 'introduction' of a lesson but that a coherent story penetrates the entire unit to be utilized until the end of the lesson.
