In this paper, we attempted to provide the bases of effective educational programs for fostering ICT competencies of gifted students in science. For this purpose, we tried to answer the questions like 'What are the ICT core-competence for gifted students in science?' and 'How can we educate those competencies effectively?' We started by reviewing existing studies on ICT competencies for talented people in future society and then adopted one[6] as the basis for further validation. We tried to work with as many G/T experts as possible, and decided to use the online survey methodology because the experts are scattered all over the country. The survey was sent to the corresponding person who is in charge of G/T education in each area, and then e-mailed to G/T experts in that area. Through these procedures, three hundred four(304) G/T experts from all around the country participated in this survey. The results showed the followings: (1) G/T experts agreed with the importance and necessity of ICT competencies for gifted students in science; (2) G/T experts agreed with the validity of three core ICT competencies, which are 'knowledge and skills competence, creativity competence, and characteristic competence,' for gifted students in science; (3) G/T experts agreed with the validity of educational goals, which are suggested for fostering each ICT core-competence of gifted students in science; and (4) G/T experts regarded 'product-oriented education' and 'ICT device-oriented education' as important and effective types of education programs for fostering ICT competencies of gifted students in science.

Objective: This study carried out base research to build an agricultural safety monitoring system through ICT convergence to reduce safety accidents and enhance welfare in life in the agricultural field. Background: The functions and values of rural villages as the space of living are recognized anew, but occupational accident rate due to farm work accidents is on the rise each year. Therefore, the seriousness of such a problem emerges. The convergence technology combining ICT is recently applied to industries overall, and therefore better services are offered. However, studies on ICT convergence has not yet been applied to the agricultural safety field. Method: This study identified ICT convergence service technology trends and representative serious accident types mainly occurring in agricultural activities. This study defined the major factors of farm work accidents and ICT to solve those accident factors including the sensor technology, wired/wireless communication technology and location information service, and applied them to prototype PCB for the development of an agricultural safety monitoring system. Results: This study proposed an emergency monitoring system for farmers and a harmful environment monitoring system. The ICT technology to prevent farm work accidents can be summarized as sensing technology, ICT and network technology and user interface technology. This study also designed PCB module configuration and situation judgment algorithm as basic research for proposed monitoring system development. Conclusion: The ICT-based agricultural safety monitoring research proposed in this study is expected to become the basis to build a future real time monitoring system, and also is expected to contribute to social safety and welfare service improvement for farmers. Application: The ICT convergence farmer accident prevention system will make contributions to the prevention of serious farm work accidents.

The research objectives investigates main research topics and trends in the information and communication technology(ICT) field, Korea using LDA(Latent Dirichlet Allocation), one of the topic modeling techniques. The experimental dataset of ICT research and development(R&D) project of 5,200 was acquired through matching with the EZone system of IITP after downloading R&D project dataset from NTIS(National Science and Technology Information Service) during recent five years. Consequently, our finding was that the majority research topics were found as intelligent information technologies such as AI, big data, and IoT, and the main research trends was hyper realistic media. Finally, it is expected that the research results of topic modeling on the national R&D foundation dataset become the powerful information about establishment of planning and strategy of future's research and development in the ICT field.

The arrival of the Smart Age has allowed the mature development of information and communication technology (ICT), which increasingly affects our societies and daily lives. Aligned with the contextual background, the Association of Information Systems, which comprised MIS professors, selected ICT-enabled Bright Society Initiative as a future agenda in December 2014. This study employs the Delphi method, which involves the three steps of brainstorming, clustering, and ranking, to deliver the main purposes of the research: finding the agenda items to examine the Bright ICT Initiative, ranking these items strategically, and discussing the subprograms. The research findings discover 11 major issues, and the importance of each issue is ranked by analyzing the survey. Furthermore, how the levels of the importance of each issue that affects individuals, corporations, and societies/nations differ according to age and gender is studied.

Currently, various technological models and services are emerging because of the development of information and communication technology and the convergence of industries. The ICT car field is expanding because of technological convergence in the automobile industry. However, ICT convergence services are still being developed based solely on technology; characterization of users and their needs is lacking. Therefore, two types of ICT car services that apply human-centered design processes are developed in this study. These processes create services and models while considering the quality and functions of products based on users (instead of technology) when developing products or services. Usability evaluation was performed on the developed services; a human-centered design process was applied to the results to confirm that the derived services resulted in high satisfaction. In the future, these research results will provide useful applications when developing ICT car services and strategies.

유럽연합은 1990년대에 접어들면서 미국과의 경제 격차가 점차 확대되자 미국을 따라잡기 위해 리스본 전략을 채택하였다. 이 전략의 목표는 유럽의 정보화를 통한 성장, 고용, 사회적 참여로 요약할 수 있다. 리스본 전략에서 제시된 정보화 모토는 정책과 연구개발을 2개의 기둥으로 하고, 이 두 영역간의 긴밀한 상호협조를 통해 유럽정보화의 시너지를 창출하자는 것이었다. 정책 부문은 리스본 전략에서 출발하여 신 리스본 전략, i2010 전략으로 발전되어 왔으며, 이에 맞추어 연구개발 부문은 FP5, FP6으로 발전되어 오다가 현재는 FP7이 시행되고 있다. 본 고에서는 FP7의 ICT 연구프로그램에서 제안하는 도전과제와 미래기술전략을 소개하는 한편, 그 정책적 시사점을 도출하였다. FP7 ICT 연구프로그램은 유럽이 차세대 ICT 및 그 사용에 있어서 세계 선도 그룹에 들기 위해 극복해야 할 7가지 도전과제를 제안하고 있다. 이들 도전 과제들은 크게 업계의 기술 목표 및 사회경제적 목표 달성을 위한 과제로 이분할 수 있으며, 향후 10년 간의 목표와 성과물을 제시하고 있다. FP7 ICT 연구프로그램 중 '미래 및 새로 부상하고 있는 기술(FET)' 프로젝트는 예상하지 못했던 아이디어와 발전에 효과적으로 대응하기 위하여 '개방형 FET프로젝트'와 '전 방위적 FET 프로젝트'의 두 가지 상호보완적 플랜을 운영하고 있다. 본 고에서는 이들 프로젝트에 대하여 성과목표, 기대효과, 자금지원 및 예산분배계획을 간략하게 소개하였다. 결론부에서는 앞에서의 논의를 토대로 우리나라의 미래 ICT 기술개발 전략 구상시 참조해야 할 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다.
