This study analyzed the curricula of fashion related majors at 4-year colleges in the USA, UK, Japan and Hong Kong as well as in Korea and compared the characteristics of the Korean curriculum with those of the four countries. A total of 124 curricula from 103 colleges were collected. Courses were divided into eight categories (including industry and market information; materials; merchandise planning; design; production; distribution and selling; basics; and consumption) representing the production and distribution process of fashion business. There were differences in course offerings among the five countries. Overall, curricula in Korea emphasized design and production (construction) areas and showed not much differentiation among colleges. While industry and market information, merchandise planning, and production (management) areas were emphasized in the USA , differentiation/specialization by major was observed . UK and Hong Kong had well-specialized curricula by major Japan seemed to offer traditional and consumption oriented courses. Based on the findings, some propositions for the Korean fashion curriculum were discussed.

This paper presents an analysis of the Developmental Approaches in Science, Health and Technology (DASH) program, a K-6 curriculum developed by the Curriculum Research & Development Group (CRDG) at the University of Hawaii employing the curriculum analysis framework created by Posner. Using this framework the analyst found that the DASH design is based on the research on learning, teaching, and assessment now driving efforts to reform science education at the elementary level. DASH embraces the constructivist idea that learning is a personal and social process and the recapitulation model that new concepts are built out of theories previously learned. DASH provides an understandable, exciting, and memorable experience in the operations of science, health, and technology, and develops their capacity to use the skills and knowledge of science, health, and technology both in and outside school. A number of studies of DASH have examined its functionality, effectiveness of pedagogy and what students learn. The innovative nature of DASH necessitated a multidimensional assessment that included both quantitative and qualitative research techniques. Ongoing development of the DASH program in the research setting of a university laboratory school permits ever deeper connections with emerging curriculum theory and curriculum practice, and allows new linkages as ideas are tested in research classrooms.

Recently, almost all industries are focusing on improving the competency of related industry workers, and it is necessary to design a systematic educational activity plan that constructs, operates and evaluates learning experiences for knowledge, technology and literacy development required in the industrial field. This study performed a questionnaire survey on students' satisfaction with 2015 and 2014 curriculum and national competency standards (NCS)-based one which has been applied since March 2016 against those from Department of Beauty & Cosmetology, 'C' University. For data analysis, frequency analysis, qualitative analysis and SWOT analysis were conducted, and the results found the followings: The NCS-based curriculum which has been applied since 2016 is more advanced than 2015 and 2014 curriculum in terms of strength, weakness, risk and opportunity. In addition, their satisfaction with curriculum was more than average with 47.9-57.2%. Meanwhile, when asked their favorite time to decide their academic major, 79.5% answered, '2nd semester of the 1st year'. They were very dissatisfied with the fact that their academic major is decided in the second year. It is anticipated that the NCS-based 2-year curriculum for Dept. of Beauty & Cosmetology is redesigned through analysis of students' satisfaction and by reflecting their opinions. It is also expected that the reorganization of the curriculum in a more practical and systematic manner would increase students' satisfaction and generate workforce for cosmetology industry.
