Laboratory work is so much important in the engineering education. But laboratory work program at most domestic engineering education institutes is still poor and could not have been actively improved and reinforced due to the difficulty in preparing the necessary fund, facilities, professional personnel and so on. The school of mechanical engineering in Pusan National University, sponsored by the national special engineering education project, has poured intensive and strong efforts into improving and strengthening laboratory work program in the courses of education. In this paper, the brief content of the improved laboratory work program and the established system for putting through the program effectively are introduced around the topics such as the integrating laboratory work of mechanical/electronic/computer engineerings, systematic managing and progressive deepening of the laboratory level through the classification of the laboratory works, education system for putting through efficiently the program for a large mass of students and program for encouraging the creativity.

None of us need to be reminded that these are exceedingly times. The evidence in all about us. Between rising costs and lowering prices, many businesses find profits being depressed almost to the vanishing point. The eating out food business is in just such a profit squeeze. Our ability to compete depends not only on our ability to control the price-cost picture, but to improve its kitchen product system. A kitchen product system is incomplete without a series of built-in improvement procedures. They must be a key part of the system. "improvement" means the continual betterment of all aspects of the operation-its personnel, products, sales, and its costs. These improvements create profits. This study is devoted to a discussion of the application of research methods and techniques to develop of modern kitchen system through the job standardization. Their use in executing other responsibilities related to the process of kitchen system improvement will also be seen. The steps of setting objectives, gathering data, analyzing and interpreting data, and arriving at solutions, conclusions, and/or recommendations are briefly out lined. The material presented emphasizes the need for an improved and systematic approach to the study of problems. It is also implied, of not stated, that the process should not become so mechanical that the principles of creativity are violated. The foregoing steps suggest a systematic approach to kitchen system improvement, finding solutions to problems, improving work methods, instituting changes, followting up on work related to the change. This study has been limited to the truly important points related to each step in the process, it will undoubtedly call to mind other factors for consideration, however, believe that the principles and approach suggested in this study will bring about better methods and improve kitchen operating results.g results.

A change of social environment based on digital information technology has decreased the disparity of regional cultures by exchanging & consuming contemporary information & culture freely. After 1995, when local autonomous entity system was established, the local autonomous bodies competed with one another in developing the regional society with its' own resources, human powers & cultures, independently of the central government. In the competitive system, a local government is getting itself distinguished from each other in the cultural & regional properties, and brands the region with its unique events, public relations(PR) & development strategies. The environment for advertisement has changed rapidly under the spontaneous system of regional brand and competition, which means the changes of creative standard in the field of advertisement. An in-depth advertising creativity with induced impression & trust is one of the most important aspects of the advertisement to become persuasive to the public effectively. This demand has had public advertisements changed rapidly and the change of regional system's advertisements has started already. This study focuses on analyzing the status of Local Government's commercials on TV, and presenting an effective method for improving it.

The purpose of this study was to examine the learning outcome of problem-based learning as an efficient teaching method to improve the competencies of great talents for future society. A general education course of a university that was one of teaching profession courses titled "prevention of school violence and countermeasures" was provided in the form of PBL, and data were gathered, which were reflective journals, evaluation sheet and observational journals. As a result, PBL produced learning effects such as understanding and applying learning contents, fostering cooperativeness, problem-solving skills and a sense of responsibility, extended thinking and good understanding of PBL. Also, that provided a great opportunity for the students to build up their character by learning caring and by improving cooperativeness, a sense of responsibility and communicative competency, which preservice teachers should have. The findings of the study suggest that the expansion of PBL is necessary to bolster problem- solving skills, self-directed learning, cooperativeness and creativity that are competencies required in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Algorithm education that become at the base of thinking is emphasized from primary school. However, It is difficult to understand algorithm in elementary school students level. In this research, it considered curriculum that can teach universally to elementary school students by solution plan of problem. So we chose Scratch program with education data, because it is verified the effect in education of algorithm, and easy to control among EPL (Education Programming Language). It was composed curriculum so that interaction is accomplished through group activities to coincide in various level of students, and approached to the problem-solving center to emphasize important thinking process in algorithm education, and got educational value in relevant level of each student. According to validation of expert groups and surveys, we concluded the curriculum that is appropriate. The curriculum proposed in this paper can help to enhance the problem solving ability and the creativity.

Advances in Information Communication Technologies (ICT) have demonstrated tremendous potential for solving development challenges and improving development processes, culminating in the new Development 2.0. Many development practitioners have embraced ICT (particularly on Web 2.0 and mobile phone technologies and applications), which have become hot topics in both the development community and the policy community as they engage in development practice and dialogue. Despite this excitement, there lacks among the policy community a robust understanding of the powers and pitfalls of ICT in development, executed actions to back the excited chatter, and dissemination of this understanding to practitioners and policymakers alike. We conducted a literature review, interviewed experts, and engaged in discussion with leaders in international development and science and technology policy to provide an operational framework base in which to view ICT in development. This framework regards ICT as tools that support more effective and efficient community development actions and appropriate consideration of general guidelines, which enable better engagement across and within sectors and individuals. Flexibility and accountability are critical requirements pervading throughout the various actions and guidelines, which promote transparent, partnership-based, and sustainable development. We highlight the strengths and weaknesses of ICT to focus on the cautions to keep ICT access and distribution in context, understand the various levels of technologies and services, and dig below the surface as excitement about ICT increases and threatens to become a short-term solution. We offer ideas for specific programs that policymakers can implement to contribute to a more efficient and effective development process to ultimately support global human development, but stress the endless possibilities that can be explored with creativity and flexibility beyond what is proposed here.
