  • This study is about interdisciplinary education model of using Davis Guggenheim's documentary film on global warming which is a big concern in climate change issues, An Inconvenient Truth. It based on Al Gore's slide speech. Through a course student analyzed the cause and phenomenon of global warming resulted from increase of $CO_2$ by using fossil fuel and its environmental science effects-heat wave, desertification, tornado, hurricane, sea level rise caused by melting glaciers, destroying ecosystem like habitat degradation of wild animals, for example polar bear, extreme cold wave caused by change of ocean currents- of global warming. After, student discussed of efforts to prevent global warming. This educational model is appropriate for lower grade student of environmental engineering and also available for converged majors or general education class.

  • Most universities are attempting educational innovation through multidisciplinary approaches, such as interdisciplinary programs and convergent majors, to nurture convergent talents in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution. The purpose of this study is to identify the priorities of the educational needs of students who complete the interdisciplinary program and to find its effective operation plan. For this purpose, research was conducted to search for the university-level support required to vitalize the interdisciplinary program by doing focus group interviews with students who have participated in the interdisciplinary program. And the final priority was derived by applying the t-test, Borich's need assessment model, and The Locus for Focus Model, using online research. As a result of the analysis, 'formation and operation of dedicated organizations' and 'dedicated classrooms and practice rooms' were deduced as factors to be considered as a top priority, 'curriculum specialization,' 'interdisciplinary program scholarship support,' 'interdisciplinary program promotion,' and 'assignment of dedicated teaching assistants' were derived as secondary consideration factors. Based on these research results, a plan of vitalizing the educational needs for the interdisciplinary program at university and its implications were suggested.

  • Recently, worldwide attention has been placed on being able to develop a person with interdisciplinary abilities. Specifically, there has been an emphasis on the integration of the previous STEM education and the arts, as well as the role of IT in technology and engineering education. Therefore, for this study, our goal is to help pave the way for the increased use of the teaching-learning methods of the IT-based STEAM education in developing people with interdisciplinary abilities. Firstly, we searched through domestic and foreign papers for example related to the recent trend towards the STEAM and integrative IT education models. In this study, we also presented a realistic teaching model based on STEAM education, applied mainly in the U.S., and on the teaching-learning methods of science and technology. The method we suggested is rated by expert assessments as a highly effective teaching-learning method for science and math. The use of educational IT technology in the STEAM education method is also analyzed with positive results.

  • The design of learning environments which encourage students to work in a creative manner on mathematical problems is a creative process in itself. The concept of the Saturday University program is described in which pre-service teachers are guided at teaching students in extra-curriculum activities on interdisciplinary topics. In the process of the didactical reconstruction of mathematical problems, the pre-service teachers go through the stages of a revolving door model y.

  • In this study, we applied the long short-term memory (LSTM) model to classify the cryptocurrency price time series. We collected historic cryptocurrency price time series data and preprocessed them in order to make them clean for use as train and target data. After such preprocessing, the price time series data were systematically encoded into the three-dimensional price tensor representing the past price changes of cryptocurrencies. We also presented our LSTM model structure as well as how to use such price tensor as input data of the LSTM model. In particular, a grid search-based k-fold cross-validation technique was applied to find the most suitable LSTM model parameters. Lastly, through the comparison of the f1-score values, our study showed that the LSTM model outperforms the gradient boosting model, a general machine learning model known to have relatively good prediction performance, for the time series classification of the cryptocurrency price trend. With the LSTM model, we got a performance improvement of about 7% compared to using the GB model.

  • The practical value of the third place using ubiquitous digital technology has been increasing rapidly, therefore it is inevitable to educate students of spatial design in the interdisciplinary education system based on the unified technology of digital in order to cultivate leading designers to adapt new era of spatial design. After a research for the unified form of spatial planning and case studies of foreign educations, this study addresses the issues to classify the interdisciplinary teaching form into three educational categories digital interactive education, digital unified education and digital creative education. Finally, the study proposes the basic form of the ideal and futuristic education of spatial design with the distinguished results after conducting the model curriculum by the above categories.

  • Research and national standards, such as the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in the United States, promote the development and implementation of K-12 interdisciplinary curricula integrating the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and computer science (STEM+CS). However, little research has explored how teachers provide epistemic support in interdisciplinary contexts or the factors that inform teachers' epistemic support in STEM+CS activities. The goal of this paper is to articulate how interdisciplinary instruction complicates epistemic knowledge and resources needed for teachers' instructional decision-making. Toward these ends, this paper builds upon existing models of teachers' instructional decision-making in individual STEM+CS disciplines to highlight specific challenges and opportunities of interdisciplinary approaches on classroom epistemic supports. First, we offer considerations as to how teachers can provide epistemic support for students to engage in disciplinary practices across mathematics, science, engineering, and computer science. We then support these considerations using examples from our studies in elementary classrooms using integrated STEM+CS curriculum materials. We focus on an elementary school context, as elementary teachers necessarily integrate disciplines as part of their teaching practice when enacting NGSS-aligned curricula. Further, we argue that as STEM+CS interdisciplinary curricula in the form of NGSS-aligned, project-based units become more prevalent in elementary settings, careful attention and support needs to be given to help teachers not only engage their students in disciplinary practices across STEM+CS disciplines, but also to understand why and how these disciplinary practices should be used. Implications include recommendations for the design of professional learning experiences and curriculum materials.

  • In this study, the purpose of the research is to present a cooperative convergence education Capstone design operational model that can promote community relations by spreading excellent practices through governmental, academic, and civil cooperation, ultimately contributing to the development of systematic plans among cooperative groups for successful promotion, and the production high effects in the fashion sector. The case study presented a new model that combines convergence in interdisciplinary studies, focusing on the case study of the "Fashion Capstone Design" textbook. The characteristics of the proposed model suggested three types of convergence- the convergence of government, academia and private cooperation, and the convergence of academic and civil organizations, depending on their role. The proposed educational model has the advantage of complementing and dealing with the difficulties presented by interdisciplinary education. It also has the effect of activating community linkages with colleges in the community. In addition, the effectiveness of community colleges and community links can be optimized. Through the example of this study, we look forward to being used as a references for a variety of cooperative convergence education capstone design projects.
