  • This study aims to provide a science history content system necessary in the course design process of liberal arts subjects, along with the application of flip learning in liberal arts science classes for humanities and social sciences students. For the research, we analyzed the current state of the liberal arts and history of science classes at universities. Then we developed the 'Understanding the History of Science' subject by applying the flip learning method through the analysis of various previous studies. As the goal of science history lectures that can reach the essential purposes of science liberal arts education, including knowledge acquisition and strengthening various competencies, scientific attitude cultivation was set, and the content system of week 15 was designed to consider this. The four topics corresponding to the "History of Science" part of the "Understanding Science History" content system consisted of flipped learning classes and teaching and learning activities, including online video materials and group discussion activities. As a result of opening courses for students in the humanities and social sciences and operating classes for 56 college students, it was confirmed that students' interest and awareness of science increased. This study provides educational evidence for science history and liberal arts education.

  • In spite of the rapid change of the technology, the university education cannot escape from the traditional form of classroom teaching. University education is assessed through listening the same content of lecture, completing the same assignment and test at the same time, same place. To prepare for the 4th industrial revolution, it is investigated to reorganize the curriculum(32.5%), strengthen the lifelong education(21.4%), expand the compulsory education(17.6%), expand the innovation school(13.7%), expand the educational finance(10.4%) as the field of education which need to be strengthen. The change of the education is essential to prepare for the 4th industrial revolution which creativity, collaboration, fusion, problem solving are the core ability. In this thesis, it is to be compared that the subjects opened in liberal arts of domestic and overseas university in this 4th industrial revolution and Basic Liberal Art Education Curriculum is promoted for the smooth management for preparing the future and taking the action to the change. Stereotyped and inflexible frame should be changed to 'Structure', 'Recognition', 'Attitude' for making the base of 'Diversity', 'Personalization', 'Flexibility' which are needed to uplift 'Imagination', 'Creativity' for education of the future and the new era.

  • Many colleges in Korea have been making a concentrated effort to develop engineering certification education programs, fit for the certification standards and the reality of each college. However, in reality, many colleges and departments in Korea have great difficulties in making the curriculums meet the engineering certification standards to be proper for the present situation of each college. Therefore, this study aims at suggesting the most general way to make a specialized liberal arts curriculum for the colleges preparing for the engineering certification. When this is applied to the architectural engineering program curriculums of each college, students will be able to take specialized liberal arts subjects which are appropriate for their future careers and aptitudes, and also enterprises will be able to curtail educational expenses for their new employees and hire competent people who combine fundamental personality, basic knowledge about the work, and foreign language proficiency. Furthermore, the nation will be able to secure national competitive power through systematization of engineering education and realistic educational systems.

  • In the future, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is expected to become a general-purpose technology (GPT), and it is predicted that AI competency will become an essential competency. Several nations around the world are fostering experts in the field of AI to achieve technological proficiency while working to develop the necessary infrastructure and educational environment. In this study, we investigated the status of software education at the liberal arts level at 31 universities in Seoul, along with precedents from domestic and foreign AI education research. Based on this, we concluded that an AI literacy education model is needed to link software education at the liberal arts level with professional AI education. And we classified 20 AI-related lectures released in the KOCW according to the AI literacy competencies required; based on the results of this classification, we propose a model for AI literacy education in the liberal arts for undergraduate students. The proposed AI literacy education model may be considered as AI·SW convergence to experience AI along with literacy in the humanities, deviating from the existing theoretical and computer-science-based approach. We expect that our proposed AI literacy education model can contribute to the proliferation of AI.

  • In connection with the OECD's core competency proposal, we would like to consider an attempt to realize this in liberal arts education at Korean universities and examine what kind of education plan it is desirable to present to learners. Universities are expanding competency-based education into human and social fields by reconsidering new talent awards and the direction of education. In this way, each university selects and organizes core competencies and incorporates the core competencies that the university pursues into educational goals. Under the supervision of the Ministry of Education, education centered on core competencies is exploring its potential in liberal arts courses at universities above all else. We want to explore a methodology that can achieve learner-centered teaching and learning effects in the process of incorporating and accepting this. Language acquisition along with cross-cultural understanding is above all else a part that can promote learners' competencies in terms of diversity and mutual understanding. Therefore, we reflect this in French liberal arts education and explore teaching and learning processes by incorporating respect for diversity and mutual cultural understanding competency education related to learners' motivation into lectures. We aim to supplement this through collaboration and mutual cultural understanding processes as presentation tasks in order to overcome the existing competency-based evaluation while deriving acceptance results from learners. Therefore, they recognize that the direction of core competency education naturally shifts to value-centered education.

  • Generally it is not easy task whether the stable systems governed by nonlinear ordinary differential equations are asymptotically stable or not. This problem often appears in studying a collision and avoidance control problem based on the stability theory. In this paper we devoted to finding conditions that the stable system obtained from the collision and avoidance control problem is asymptotically stable.

  • The ability to use software is an essential competency in modern society. As a result, programming education is conducted from elementary school to university. In case of programming education for non-majors conducted in the liberal arts at universities, if it is conducted online using high-quality contents, problems such as the shortage of professional professor and the limitation of practice time can be solved. Also, it has the advantage of providing students with enough time to think and solve problems. In this paper, the possibility of online lectures was investigated through a survey before and after lectures in software liberal arts courses conducted online. From the results of the survey, it is judged that the goal of software education can be achieved even if software lectures are conducted online, which is to improve computational thinking and problem-solving skills.

  • Recently, the topics of SW liberal-arts education are diversifying, from 'Computational Thinking(CT)' to 'Programming, Data Analysis and Artificial Intelligence(AI)' in universities. We expect that the diversification of SW liberal-arts subjects does not just mean that the learning contents are different, but also differentiates the educational goals and educational effects of each subject. In this paper, we conducted a case study to analyze the educational effect according to the educational goals of two SW liberal-arts subjects, CT and Data Analysis Fundamentals(DA), for humanities college students. We confirmed that the educational effect of 'CT Efficacy' increased significantly in accordance with the common educational goal of 'Improving CT-based SW convergence competency' in both subjects. However, we also analyzed the difference in the educational effects of 'CT(the goal of basic SW education)' and 'DA(the goal of major-friendly SW education)', which have different subject goals. 'CT' mainly showed an educational effect on how to solve general daily problems, and 'DA' showed confidence in how to solve major problems along with general problems.

  • In this paper it is considered that international students who are studying at Korean universities have difficulty in completing their studies while adjusting to Korean university life. The reason for this is that most international students enter university but they are lack of liberal arts knowledge such as Korean language skills and foundation studies necessary for their major studies. However, most universities focus on teaching Korean language as a liberal arts course for international students. Therefore It suggests that the most important and urgent required is for international students to improve their liberal arts knowledge as well as their Korean language skills. Furthermore, this paper argues order for international students who do not have enough liberal arts such as Korean language proficiency or basic science to study successfully, a systematic liberal arts curriculum and teaching methods for international students should be presented and applied in the field. Accordingly, this paper shows an example of the class operated by applying the knowledge-based Korean language teaching method to the cultural class, which is a dedicated subjects for international students, and proved its effectiveness.
