  • The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of higher grades in elementary the science process skill and Academic Achievement by IIM. To verify research problem, the subject of this study were five-grade students selected from One classes of an elementary school located in Ulsan : the experimental group is composed of thirty-four students who were participated in IIM teaching model situation. During six weeks, the IIM learning-based instruction was executed in th experimental group. Post-test showed following results: First, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in the science process skill. We look into detailly this, the experimental group showed a significant improvement in the basis science process skill. In particular, The sub-factor 'Observation', 'Measurement', 'expectation' of the science process skill effects a significant improvement. Second, the experimental group did showed a significant improvement in the Academic Achievement. In conclusion, IIM teaching model was more effective on science process skill and Academic Achievement. However, since the study has a limit on an objet of the study and the applied curriculum, the additional studies need to be conducted with an extended comparative group and curriculum.

  • Is university restructuring for 'reinforcing university education quality and competitiveness of higher education'? The fundamental problems of the on going university restructuring becomes crisis of university and moreover, Sports Related Departments faces huge crisis. This research analyzes university crisis and progress of Sports Related Departments. After conducting discussion about a directivity of Physical Education in university with a focus on role and direction of 'Physical Education' which is for realization of 'University''s ideal, Sports Related Departments proposed four practical tasks, which is for preventive improvement, not for prescriptive improvement. First, Effort to establish academical identity. Second, characterization strategy for each different region and university. Third, Reforming of Sports Related Departments related with prospect of the labour market. Last, Drawing up a plan for establishing Sports Related Departments' united system.

  • It is very necessary to have a creative problem-solving capacities to learn various majors and liberal arts based on the major, and to solve the bottleneck techniques led by students. In this study, the existing creative problem-solving curriculums, 'Methodology of Inventive Problem Solving' based on TRIZ, were improved and applied, and industrial bottleneck techniques were provided to students to solve these techniques. To improve the curriculum, 1) improvement of instructional objectives and learning contents, 2) improvement of evaluation methods and contents (reflecting the evaluation of instructor and students), and 3) learning satisfaction survey were conducted in the following order. As a result of the application of the improved curriculum, the level of activities for each team was improved, and when the core process was well understood, the evaluation of team activities was also excellent, but there was a tendency to focus on methods that are relatively easy to apply in the problem solving process. In the final exam (learning contents evaluation), teams with difficult understanding of the TRIZ theory or low team activities showed a relatively high trend, but the difference in level between divisions was slightly reduced.

  • This study analyzes the method of adhesion and improvement between heat.er and RF filter in PE-CVD equipment through TRIZ method and proposes a solution. TRIZ Solution such as function analysis, 9-window matrix, ASIT, and Root cause analysis were used. The contact temperature between the heater and the RF filter was 20% and the surface temperature was lowered to 5.7℃, suggesting an improvement method for the thermal expansion of the PE-CVD equipment hot zone.

  • 초중등학교에서는 교육 목적의 설문조사를 종종 실시하고 있다. 유료 시스템을 이용하거나 오프라인 설문을 하거나 클라우드 서비스 사이트를 이용하곤 한다. 라임서베이는 학교내에서 설치 운영이 가능한 오픈 소스이지만 사용자 인터페이스가 불편하게 느껴지는 점이 있어 그 사용이 적은 편인데, 본 연구에서는 이를 개선함으로써 사용을 보다 원활하게 하고자 한다.

  • National competitiveness is related directly to the strength of educational competitiveness of universities. Seoul National University (SNU) has been taking efforts to improve its competitiveness in University education in variety of ways and the classroom assessment is one key example of those. The current classroom assessment system practiced at universities is being used to evaluate courses and professors in charge by the university administration or evaluation committee. The classroom assessment system is not intended to put students and professors as the subject of the evaluation. In this case, the evaluation is intended wrongfully to rank the courses and evaluate professors' achievement by assigning grades on the lectures. Instead, a proper classroom assessment system should be targeted to improve the quality of lectures by encouraging communication among professor and students in the classroom. In this study, it was intended to investigate a suitable classroom assessment system to enhance the effectiveness of education, not to rank the courses and evaluate professors' achievement. For this purpose, research has been carried out to investigate opinions of professors at SNU on the criteria of classroom assessment and to analyze the criteria of classroom assessment at other domestic universities in Korea. The inquiries for feedback on the lecture by the student in the class was analyzed. The current classroom assessment system at SNU was reviewed and an improvement plan was devised to evaluate liberal art courses of engineering and science schools at SNU. In this research, the problems in the classroom assessment system was reviewed and improvement points were searched to utilize the classroom assessment system more effectively for the improvement of lecture quality.

  • The purpose of this study was to evaluate how well the 2020 vision presented by the Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea(ABEEK) had been achieved, and to objectively examine the social status. It was very necessary for the development of engineering education in Korea to provide room for improvement by diagnosing how well the ABEEK, one of the major engineering education communities, was achieving its own vision. In order to achieve the objectives of the study, research methods such as literature review, survey research, and expert advisory committee were used. To evaluate the level of achievement of the Vision 2020 of the ABEEK, the analysis was based on the response results of 61 people who had experience as a member of the steering committe. In addition, the vision and mission of the 23 countries that are currently signatory members of the Washington Accord were surveyed, and the social responsibility and financial independence of the 20 countries that joined the signatory member countries before 2020 were compared with each other. As a result of the analysis, the item of securing international equivalence in engineering education received the most positive evaluation, and the social compensation efforts for accreditied graduates received the least evaluation. The ABEEK was evaluated as having a medium level of social responsibility and a low level of financial independence. Based on the results of this research, we proposed ways the ABEEK to contribute to the improvement of Korean engineering education.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate learning effects of the key competency improvement program which is based in nursing and social welfare fields demanding analysis for nursing and social welfare among university freshmen. Method: The program was based on the ADDIE model. The field demanding analysis gave a questionnaire to 459 participants in the nursing and social welfare workplace. The subjects of this study were 136 students as an experimental group and 116 students as a control group which participated in the questionnaire. The experimental group was given a newly developed program, on the other hand, the control group was given traditional lessons. Collected data were analyzed by ANCOVA with SPSS. Result: The result of this study was that linkage perception of health and welfare, self-directed learning ability, participation perception, and interpersonal relationship ability showed significant improvement in the experimental group. Conclusion: This study can be used as basic data for management and evaluation of programs that are available not only to field-oriented disciplines but also to overall higher education fields which aim to strengthen core competency.
