Using the College Scholastic Ability Test of year 1995, the paper investigates effects of classroom peers on a student's test scores. It exploits exogenous assignment of students across different classrooms within a school under the leveling policy in 1990s. The empirical results reveal strong impacts of peers on individual students. Negative effects of low-performing peers exceed positive effects of high-performing peers. Such a structure of peer interactions has important implications for ability grouping vs. mixing debates in Korea.

An educational system using computers was first conceptualized by Dr. Donald Bitzer in the University of Illinois in the late 1950s. Since the PLATO system was developed in 1961, multilateral research were made for the last 30 years. Especially, the development of Internet and Information Technology has contributed to the advancement of the distance education system. This system has greatly changed the existing educational paradigm, As the result, new education system is being realized, This study suggests a distance education system based on ‘push’ technique, which is a means of active information transmission, In this system, the ‘push’ technique is combined with the existing distance education system. Through the combination, learning contents can be provided for learners without connecting the DB on the Internet. In addition, the process of getting new information is real-timed operation. Also, the treatment of item; and the algorithm of level-based item evaluation are devised in consideration of various levels of learners, so that evaluation of items appropriate to the levels of learners can be accomplished.

This study has been conducted the possibility of the subcooling type ice storage cooling system that the stored ice used to subcool the condensed refrigerant. The experimental study was done to fine the characteristics of the cooling capacity according to the variation of the subcooling degree and the analysis for the peak shift effect of the full storage, partial storage and subcooling type ice storage system compared to the normal air conditioning system was also done. The result of the analysis was shown that the peak shift effect of this subcooling type ice storage system could be 61%.

컴퓨터를 이용한 교육 시스템은 1950년대말 일리노리 대학의 Donald Bitzer 박사에 의해 구상되어 왔고 1961년 PLATO 시스템이 개발된 이래 지난 30여년 동안 다각적인 연구가 이루어져왔고, 특히, 인터넷과 정보통신기술의 발달은 WWW 기반의 원격교육시스템의 개발과 발전을 진일보 시켰으며, 이들 시스템들은 기존의 교육 패러다임을 변모시키는 새로운 형태의 교육체계 구현을 통해 교육현장에 커다란 기여를 하고 있다. 본 논문은 WW W기반 기술 중 능동적 정보전달방식인 Push 기술을 기존 원격교육 시스템에 접목하여 학습자가 인터넷의 학습 DB에 접속하지 않고도 학습 내용을 제공받을수 있고, 새로운 학습정보를 실시간적으로 파악할 수 있는 Push 기반 원격교육시스템을 제안한다. 또한 , 학습지의 다양한 수준에 맞는 문제의 처리와 문항 분석이 가능한 수준별 문항평가 알고리즘을 통해 학습자의 학습수준에 적합한 문항 평가 이루어지도록 설계하였다.

This paper dealt with the Korean manpower policy in science and technology, focusing on the contents and tools of the Special Act and its Master Plans. After briefly introducing the historical development of the Korean manpower policy from the 1960s to the present, it discussed and analyzed the Special Act and Plans from the framework of personnel development, distribution, utilization and infrastructure. Korea's science and technology manpower policy has focused on fostering and supplying manpower in line with the country's industrial growth strategy. In the early stage of industrial development during the 1960s and 1980s, government research institutes were direct and effective tools for nurturing S&T manpower. Since the 1990s, the importance of university research has increased. The government fostered graduate research manpower through the research-oriented university policy of the BK21 program. After the IMF financial crisis in 1997, the tendency of students to avoid careers in science and technology led to enacting the Special Act (2004) governing the field of S&T human resources. The Special Act has contributed to leveling up the university education system in science and engineering and sophisticated the policy to include entrepreneurship training, spin-off startups, industry-university cooperation, and offering degree programs. The Special Act and the regularly revised Master Plans have been essential tools in systematically managing the science and technology manpower policies of the Korean government.
