  • The concept of soft power presents both theoretical and practical difficulties for researchers and policy makers. This essay examines the practical use of soft power and argues that soft power resources in education are important for attracting individuals to migrate between countries and assimilate to the new language and culture of the new location. Japan's attempts to utilize soft power resources in its educational system have provided mixed results dependent on the target population. Japan has successfully attracted individuals into fields related to higher education much more so than skilled labor programs. This essay discusses the importance of educational soft power resources in Japanese strategy to increase educated working population that is assimilated to Japanese language and culture. After reviewing the literature on soft power in Asia, and Japanese cultural integration policies, the essay examines three cases of Japanese educational soft power - the JET Programme, the caregiver-training program, and internationalization of university programs. In addition, the essay shows that Japan is more successful attracting higher educated individuals seeking higher paying employment rather than skilled labor through these programs.

  • Immediate responsibilities for occupational health and safety (OHS) management reside in business proprietors and supervisors whose voluntary participation in OHS educational programs, not legal sanctions, may thus lead to safe and pleasant work environments. This study investigates how to promote the effectiveness of OHS educational programs to draw voluntary participations in such programs in Korea To this end, drawbacks of current practices in OHS education are first analyzed, and then OHS related policies in advanced countries in the area of disaster prevention such as United States and Germany, are also scrutinized. Based on the preliminary investigations, the following propositions are made to lay out the foundation for promoting effective OHS educational programs in Korea: improvement of government regulations, revitalizing job training initiatives, on-site OHS education, compensation and incentive programs for OHS education. These propositions may also facilitate the deployment of disaster prevention activities across the organization and prevent various occupational disorders (for example, musculoskeletal disorders). This study emphasizes that monolithic OHS education systems led by regulatory agencies may not be efficient to ensure healthy and safe work environments. Globally competitive OHS educational systems may be established only when they are based on the health and safety requirements specified by proprietors and workers.

  • Educational program evaluation can improve the quality of the curriculum, instructional methods, and resources and provide useful data for making educational decisions and policies. Developing and implementing a program evaluation system is essential in competency-based medical education. The purpose of this study was to explore and establish an educational program evaluation system adapting an integrated program evaluation model to promote competency-based medical education. First, an Educational Evaluation Committee was organized, consisting of faculty, staff members, and students. The committee established an integrated program evaluation model, combining Stufflebeam's Context, Input, Process, and Product (CIPP) model of a process-oriented approach and Kirkpatrick's four-level model of an outcome-oriented approach. Kirkpatrick's model was applied to the product evaluation of the CIPP model. The committee then developed evaluation criteria, indicators, and data collection methods according to the components of the CIPP model and the four levels (reaction, learning, behavior, and results) of Kirkpatrick's model, and collected and analyzed data. Finally, the committee reported the results of evaluation to a Medical Education Quality Improvement Committee, and the results were used to improve the curriculum and student selection. To enhance the quality of education, identifying educational deficiencies and developing various elements of education in a balanced way through educational evaluation will be needed. Furthermore, it will be necessary to listen to opinions of various stakeholders, work with all members involved in education, and communicate with decision-makers in the process of educational evaluation.

  • Electronic media are an integral part of modern civilization; educational practices are no exception, which should change the content orientations, structures and methodological approaches in accordance with the requirements of the educational market. This makes it relevant to find effective and successful configurations in the process of implementing modern educational practices. The purpose of the research lies in determining the basic principles of electronic media and their place in modern education, identifying the effectiveness of teaching disciplines with application of electronic media, as well as establishing the level of assessment by students of the need to involve different types of electronic media in the educational process and professional practice. The research methodology is complex; the descriptive method and methods of observation, analysis and synthesis have been used in the academic paper. The method of pedagogical experiment has become the principal one; the method of questionnaires and statistical methods have been also used. The hypothesis of the academic paper lies in the fact that the involvement of electronic media in the educational process makes it more effective and requires conceptual changes in educational practices. The result of the research manifests in the identification of new opportunities for the use of electronic media, leading to conceptual shifts in the framework of modern educational policies. In the future, it will be appropriate to consider the theoretical aspects of changing worldview models in education and the use of new media in the educational process, their effectiveness and relevance.

  • 최근 들어, 한국학교교육의 개선을 위한 방안의 탐색이 이루어지면서 융복합교육이 새로운 교육 모델로 제기되고 있다. 융복합교육이 대안적인 교육 모델로 제기되는 바탕에는 국가경쟁력의 유지 발전에 지식 융합 역량이 기여하는 바에 대한 기대감, 융합 학문 및 산업의 발전에 따라 변화하는 대학교육에 대응하여 초중등교육이 변화해야할 필요성, 지식기반사회에서 요구되는 기본 역량으로서 창의적 지식 창출 능력을 함양해야 할 필요성 등 다양한 입장이 존재한다. 이에 대하여 본 연구에서는 융합현상의 인식론적 규범에 대한 고려에 기초하여 실존적 존재로서 학생의 전인적 성장을 촉진할 수 있는 학습 환경을 제공함으로써 교육의 인본화를 실현하는 것이 융복합교육이 지향해야할 핵심적 과제임을 주장하였다. 이러한 관점에서 국내외 융복합교육 프로그램 사례를 검토함으로써 융복합교육이 학교수학교육을 개선하는데 기여할 수 있는 방법론을 탐색하고 그 실천에서 고려해야할 사항을 논하였다.

  • 본 연구는 한국노동패널 1-12차 자료를 활용하여 과외금지정책이 계급이동에 미친 영향을 분석하였다. 사교육금지정책은-사교육비를 집중적으로 지출하고 교육정보가 집중된 중상층 이상에서 사교육 효과가 상대적으로 더 클 가능성으로 인해-사회이동성을 제고할 수 있다는 것이 본 연구의 기본 가설이다. 오즈비와 이중차분방법을 이용한 본 연구의 분석결과, 사교육을 금지한 과외금지 세대가 그 이전 세대에 비해 세대간 계급 이동이 더 높다는 것을 확인하였다. 중학교 평준화의 중첩된 효과를 통제한 후에도 과외금지세대가 다른 세대에 비해 세대 간 이동이 더 높았다. 다만, 과외금지 해제 이후 세대의 세대간 이동을 과외금지세대와 비교하기에는 자료에 한계가 존재한다는 점에서 추후 추가적인 분석이 요구된다. 한편 계급이동은 단순히 하나의 정책이 영향을 미쳤다기보다는 중학교 평준화 정책, 과외금지, 고등학교 평준화 정책 등이 종합적으로 영향을 미쳤을 것으로 판단된다. 인적자본축척 효과의 장기성을 감안할 때 교육정책의 기간과 지속성이 매우 중요하다는 것이 이들 정책의 영향에서 확인된다.

  • The Harry Potter series is considered to represent the multicultural aspect of contemporary British society and to show critical perspectives of racism. This series, however, also includes many elements of British imperialism. This paper examines the ideas about education and Harry's role in relation to British imperialism. One of the main ideas prevalent in 19th century British boys' public schools was that people's blood origin is the most important element in determining their characteristics, ability and moral qualities. The students' inherited capacity and their family background are more highly regarded than their secondary learning and training. This reflects a 19th century concept that ultimately, inborn quality makes 'a hero', a truth presented in the educational policies of Hogwarts. Hogwarts' educational policies and systems can also be related to 'developmentalism', which defines children as imperfect, in-progress and incomplete, thus needing proper training and discipline. As this concept functioned to justify the control of children while educating them, Hogwarts adopts diverse controlling devices and oppressive policies, which are mainly justified in the name of education. On the one hand, child characters are controlled and oppressed by the school authorities, on the other hand, some of the students such as Harry have remarkable magic powers enough to resist the adult authority and even to save the magic society from the evil power. Harry plays dual roles, which the British boys of the Empire were assigned from their society; they are important heirs to conquer the 'evil' or 'barbarous' world but need to be obedient to a 'good' authority to achieve the mission. Harry's magic power and self-discipline ultimately contribute to fulfilling Dumbledore's mission, which mirrors 19th century British boys' roles as the heirs of the British Empire.

  • This study attempted to investigate household's private educational expenditure that aggravates a burden on households by using the data from the 2014 Private Education Survey published by Statistics Korea. The effects of purposes of private education and participation in an after school program that is pushed by the government on household's private educational expenditure were analyzed. The major findings were as follows. First, the major purposes of private education lean toward preparing to enroll in school and relieving parents'uneasiness rather than prior learning Second, according to the purposes of private education, the differences of the private educational expenditure were verified. Households spend the highest level of private educational expenditure for the purpose of preparing to enroll in school contrary to the lowest level, which was for the purpose of compensatory learning. Third, participation in an after school program that is regarded as a method of moderating households' private education burden, had a positive effect on reducing private educational expenditure. Forth, private educational expenditure was influenced by the purposes of private education and participation in an after school program. In 2014, the Korean government enforced a law that prohibits schools'education in advance (prior learning) and regulates private educational institutes'advertisement about prior learning. Regarding this regulation, this study aimed to investigate the purposes and expenditure of private education to provide an empirical reference to determine the improvement of related policies.

  • 본 연구는 과학기술 발전에 따른 테크놀로지 기반의 교육이 확산됨에 따라 교사와 학생의 디지털 기기 보유가 필수적으로 요구되지만 정부의 예산으로 이를 충당하는 데는 현실적인 한계가 있으므로 그 대안으로서의 BYOD를 고려하고, 정책 시행을 위한 구체적인 방안을 탐구하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 구체적으로 BYOD의 개념과 특징이 소개되었으며, 선도모델로서의 미국의 수행사례들을 통한 장단점이 분석되었고, 이에 기반하여 BYOD의 국내 운영 가이드라인이 제도적 측면과 인프라 측면이 제시되었다. 제도적 측면으로는 주로 기술적 문제, 활용, 파손, 정보격차, 정보보호, 자원활용 등이 논의되었으며, 인프라 측면은 활용기기의 조건, 네트워크, 필터링, 소프트웨어 등이 다루어졌다. 결론적으로, BYOD는 교육에서 테크놀로지를 활용하기 위한 정책적 대안으로서, 제도 및 인프라 정비를 완료하여 성공적인 실행을 도모하기 위한 철저한 준비가 필요함이 강조되었다. 본 연구는 BYOD 시행을 위한 세부적인 지표와 대응전략을 설정하였다는데 의의가 있으며, 이를 바탕으로 향후 본격적인 시행의 기반이 될 것으로 기대할 수 있다.
