  • Web-based Assessment System is needed for Process-Oriented Evaluation to integrate instructions into evaluation frequently in Informatics Education, and considered usability for supporting teachers to test more conveniently. First of all, we analyzed usability of traditional Web-based Assessment System, and proposed PBA(Paper-Based Assessment) model by extracting usability features of paper-pencil assessment in off-line. The evaluation system based on the PBA model controls the whole processes of tests; before-test, under-test, after-test. Especially, the system readily can change the target class, and control access to the test page during each step. Thus we can get high credibility about the test results. Moreover, students can login to the paper easily by using their grade, class, number and name. Finally, we designed and implemented the Web-based Assessment System for Informatics education on the basis of PBA model; PAS(PBA-based Assessment System).

  • The purpose of this study was to extract hierarchical learning elements in the area of 'Algorithms and Programming' in the 2022 revised secondary informatics curriculum. Intrinsic validity was secured by considering the core ideas presented in the curriculum and the content elements of 'knowledge/understanding', 'process/skills', and 'values/attitudes', and extrinsic validity of the learning elements was obtained through FGI and CVR with 25 experts. The learning elements derived from this study are 7 in the first stage, 18 in the second stage, and 26 in the third stage for middle schools, and 8 in the first stage, 23 in the second stage, and 27 in the third stage for high schools. Although the scope and size of knowledge in each stage may differ, the hierarchy of knowledge in the first stage, which is materialized in the second and third stages, provides direction on how knowledge should be taught. This study is expected to contribute to the implementation of the new curriculum in schools and to improve teachers' understanding of the curriculum.

  • The importance of information education is recognized at home and abroad, and education policies are changing in the direction of expanding informatics education. Therefore, in this study, an elementary school information curriculum content system was developed by forming an expert group consisting of professors at the University of Education and the College of Education working in the Department of Computer Education and elementary and secondary information teachers with experience in curriculum development. Specifically, a content system was developed for the area of elementary school information education with linkage and hierarchy with the secondary information curriculum in the 2022 revised curriculum, core ideas for each area, content elements for each area, and instructional content for each grade level. Through this study, connectivity was secured in information education in elementary and secondary schools, and it is meaningful that the content elements of digital literacy were included in each content area. It is expected that the content system of the elementary school information curriculum proposed in this study will be helpful as a basic data for the development of certified textbooks and independence of information subjects in the future.

  • This study aims to classify the types of instructional expertise development activities of teachers who teach subjects related to software education in primary schools. To this end, the study analyzes their participation in expertise development activities over the recent three years, outcomes from these activities, and forms and characteristics of expertise development activities. In the questionnaire survey conducted for this study, 276 primary school teachers participated. According to the survey, the same largest proportion of them participated in collective job training (96%) and distant job training (96%), followed by consulting, instruction supervision, mentoring, and peer observation (82%), lectures, workshops, and seminars held by related government ministries and the provincial and municipal offices of education (69%), and teachers' study communities (66%). Among informal activities, reading accounted for the highest portion of the activities (88%), followed by the use of information on Websites including YouTude and GitHub (80%), and teachers' expertise development networks (76%). The reasons for their participation in the activities were mostly to improve their instructional expertise (80%). Their participation in the activities had an impact on usefulness to enhance instructional expertise, improvement of job competencies, application to current jobs, sense of instructional efficacy, and positive effect. These results of the study are expected to provide a foundation for preparing continued expertise development plans that can promote the educational value of primary school teachers' instructional expertise development activities for teaching subjects related to software education.

  • The objective of this research is to compare the teacher education system in countries that have reformed, or are in the process of reforming, their informatics education by reflecting ongoing social changes and developments in IT. The teacher education systems in Finland, Germany, Japan, the UK and US were compared. As a result of the study it was found that (1) the results did not differ according to the teacher education institution, (2) there was a focus on a minor subject, and (3) there were various routes for teacher training. The systems for special graduate schools were found to be developed, probation period after graduation was more than one year, and license renewal systems were being enforced. Based on these results, it was proposed that (1) more teachers be recruited to attend graduate schools and (2) that software training be given to all teachers as a minor. Finally, a license renewal system for revaluating teachers' qualifications was also proposed. This research is meaningful in that it compared the teacher training system in Korea with five major developed countries.

  • The present paper gives a new construction of a quotient BCI(BCK)-algebra X/${\mu}$ by a fuzzy ideal ${\mu}$ in X and establishes the Fuzzy Homomorphism Fundamental Theorem. We show that if ${\mu}$ is a fuzzy ideal (closed fuzzy ideal) of X, then X/${\mu}$ is a commutative (resp. positive implicative, implicative) BCK(BCI)-algebra if and only if It is a fuzzy commutative (resp. positive implicative, implicative) ideal of X Moreover we prove that a fuzzy ideal of a BCI-algebra is closed if and only if it is a fuzzy subalgebra of X We show that if the period of every element in a BCI-algebra X is finite, then any fuzzy ideal of X is closed. Especiatly, in a well (resp. finite, associative, quasi-associative, simple) BCI-algebra, any fuzzy ideal must be closed.

  • In this paper an accurate algorithm for the method of successive approximations for near-parabolic orbits is established symbolically. Numerical applications are given for motion predictions at fifteen epochs between the years 66 to 1835 for Halley's comet. and at fifteen epochs between the years 1417 to 1782 for Encke's comet. Comparisons with the standard Gauss method [4] show that the present algorithm is very accurate and efficient for motion pred-ications of near-parabolic orbits.
