  • The Korea Association of Medical Colleges (KAMC) has been developing learning outcomes for basic medical education (BME) since 2012. This initiative is designed to help medical schools implement competency-based medical education. KAMC divided the BME competencies into three domains (clinical practice, scientific concepts and principles, and human beings and society) with learning outcomes for each domain. KAMC plans to revise the learning outcomes to reflect feedback from medical schools, changes in social health needs, and changes in the healthcare environment and healthcare system in the near future. KAMC also plans to specify learning outcomes that integrate the three domains.

  • Digital storytelling, a 21st century educational tool that combines digital media with storytelling, is considered as a powerful tool to learn foreign languages in an authentic and meaningful way. This study explored cyber university students' perceptions and experiences with a digital storytelling project implemented to enhance their English writing and speaking skills. The results of 9 week-long research indicated that most of the students' attitudes were positive: the digital storytelling project was effective to increase their English skills, learning motivation and interest in learning English. Most students perceived that the process writing approach and videotaping tasks provided them with good opportunities to develop their English writing and speaking skills. Although many students had difficulties selecting a topic and writing a script in the initial stage, they could handle with these challenges with the help of professors' feedback and successfully completed their projects. After completing the project, most students expressed a strong sense of accomplishment. These results suggest that the digital storytelling project effectively met cyber university students' learning needs and facilitate their English learning.

  • In this study, to figure out the demands for learning, a survey was conducted on learning organization agents participating in learning organization project supported by public fund, through measuring their awareness level of the role and tasks drawn from the precedent study. This questionnaire was developed with four roles and twenty competencies drawn from the precedent study. After conducting the survey on over 200 small and medium corporations participated in learning organization project, the data was analyzed about the role and competency from 123 answer sheets collected. The results were as following First, the awareness of role importance was higher(4.36) than present level(3.73), and was important in order of innovator, operator, spreader, promoter. Second, in competitive importance of learning organization agents, the role of spreader was high, that of promoter was low. Third, in awareness level of learning organization agents, the demand level was generally high(4.1), but acquired level was generally low, so there was a wide gap between the demand level and acquired level. Forth, From the analysis result of those data about work competency of learning organization agents, learning organization promoter and learning leader, KMS operator ability and outcome were come out to be necessary, and next administrative ability about organization changes were come out to be necessary.

  • This study is the second that aims at offering the basic information on the appropriate spatial organization of the special classes by looking at the relationship between a group of learning activities and a group of playing activities in Elementary and Middle Schools The learning space unit of the special classes should be more flexible for the various learning activities and be prepared in order to correspond to the needs of a territory for different learning appeared according to the degree of handicap, learning ability and the contents of learning. This study dealt with the learning space unit to tackle the problems of special classes. In fact, it is unwise to offer so many different kinds of learning spaces in every school. Due to the manifold and multiple characteristics of handicap, the problem of special classes should be approached by the overall educational system of special educational facilities rather than by a special classes space alone. In this respect, it can be said that this problem should be tackled by reorganization of the special classes in the community through specialization and network system of special class facilities in order to make more effective educational environment.
