Objective: The purpose of this study was to understand the needs of teachers in daycare centers for preschoolers in providing health education and health care services and to identify competencies and barriers to health education among the teachers. Method: A total of 410 teachers from 496 public daycare centers were recruited. Participating daycare centers were selected using a stratified sampling method. Data were collected from June to August 2002 using mailed questionnaires. Result: About 37% of the daycare centers provided health education more than 6 times during the past year and 92% provided annual health screenings. Traffic safety, personal hygiene, and sexuality education were most frequently provided. Regarding in-service education for daycare teachers, 62.7% had obtained health related education. Sexuality education, traffic accident, and injury prevention were the main topics for the in-service education. The teachers had relatively higher competencies and lower barriers to health education, while they also had proper knowledge related to health of children. Conclusion: Based on the study results, health professionals could plan and develop health promotion programs to meet the needs of teachers and children in daycare centers.

이 글은 한국에서 사교육 억제정책이 시행되었음에도 불구하고 사교육이 확산되는 메커니즘을 사교육 공급자의 수요자 동원능력과 시장전략을 중심으로 분석한다. 사교육 정책의 성패는 사교육 시장의 정치에서 가장 중요한 행위자인 사교육 공급자가 수요자를 동원할 수 있는 힘을 얼마나 효과적으로 차단하느냐에 달려 있다. 최근 20여 년간 사교육 정책은 두 가지 지점에서 실패했다. 첫째, 정책의 방향이 사교육을 억제할 의도가 없었다. 헌법재판소 판결은 공급자에게 기회의 창을 제공하였고 외견상 사교육을 줄이고자 했던 5 31 교육개혁은 공급자의 동원능력에 중립적이었다. 자유주의적 신념윤리에 경도되어 책임윤리가 결여된 두 정책결정으로 사교육은 확산될 가능성을 잉태했다. 둘째, 사교육 공급자는 수요자의 욕망과 불안 심리에 호소함으로써 이들을 동원해 내는 데 성공했다. 사교육 공급자는 공교육 강화정책, 입시제도 조정정책, 사교육 수요충족 정책 등에 맞서 기존수요 관리전략, 대응 수요 창출전략, 신규수요 창출전략시장 등 시장전략을 채택했다. 이들은 사교육 억제정책의 유형에 따라 효과적인 전략을 구사함으로써 정책을 무기력하게 만들었다. 향후 사교육정책은 한국의 사회정치적 맥락, 특히 공급자의 수요자 동원능력에 주목하는 책임윤리를 바탕으로 결정해야 한다.

During the last a few decades, internationalisation of universities has emerged as an important issue not only in developed countries but in developing countries. South Korea as a fast catch-up country has experienced a remarkable change in its higher education system. This change is largely related to the South Korean government's higher education policy and to economic developmental stages. Against this backdrop, in order to assess the internationalisation of Korean higher education, we focus on international student mobility rather than other criteria such as infrastructure or programmes for international students and faculties. According to the recent statistics, the number of inbound foreign students involved in Korean higher education has increased significantly since 2005. Nevertheless, compared to other OECD and Asian countries, the number of outbound students in Korean higher education is high, whereas the number of inbound foreign students in higher education in Korea is very low. Against these observations, Korean government's recent policies and efforts of Korean universities to improve internationalization are discussed. Finally, some policy implications are put forward.

This paper investigates the two academic revolutions of the Korean higher education system. Since economic catch-up began in the 1960s, Korea has strongly encouraged the activities of its higher education system to serve industrial development as it has progressed through various developmental stages. At the 'strong regulation' stage, universities focused on the provision of technicians. As the need for higher education grew, the 'massive expansion' stage emerged. Finally, most recently, university research and its direct contribution to the economy have been invigorated by strong governmental support. Possibly, this is due to the fact that the Korean government has strongly controlled not only industry but also academia. As long as other East Asian universities have similar conditions to those of the development of Korean universities, we can generalise this model not only to universities in other East Asian countries, but also to universities in other rapid catch-up countries.

본 연구는 자유학기제 정책의 구체화 과정을 살펴보았다. 정책의 구체화 과정이란, 정책 아이디어가 의제 설정과 정책 결정 과정을 거치며 정책 목표 등 정책의 주요한 구성 요소들이 변화해 가는 과정을 말한다. 이를 위해 대통령 후보의 공약부터 교육 당국의 자유학기제 시행계획까지 자유학기제 관련 주요 정책 문서와, 정책 결정 과정에 참여한 주요 인사의 구술 자료를 수집하여 정책 목표의 변화를 중심으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 자유학기제 정책의 정책 목표는 정책 의제 설정과 정책 결정 과정을 거치며 더욱 포괄적이고 모호한 형태로 변화하였으며, 정책의 강조점도 거듭 변경되었음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 현상은 교육 정책의 이해에 몇 가지 시사점을 제공한다. 첫째, 특정 시점에 제시된 교육 정책의 목표는 잠정적인 것으로 이해해야 한다. 둘째, 정책 목표의 변화는 정책 추진의 정당성 확보 과정에서 발생한 것일 수 있다. 셋째, 정책과 정치의 관계성에 보다 더 주목할 필요가 있다. 대중의 상식과 필요에 기반한 교육 정책이 제대로 추진되기 위해서는 보다 성숙한 교육 정책 논의의 문화가 필요하다.

The purpose of this study is to review the current state of energy education in Korea and identifies barriers faced by teachers in doing energy education. For this purpose, this study carried out a questionnaire survey targeting energy saving policy research-schools. The results of this research are as follows. First, teachers facing barriers in energy education pointed out the lack of teaching text and students' interest in energy, and work stress as main barriers. Second, teachers facing barriers in energy education rather than teachers not facing barriers are inclined to do more education at Ordinance hour and Jongrye hours. It implies that more energy education textbooks for Ordinance hour and Jongrye hours need to be developed. Third, teachers facing barriers in energy education desire more chances for training program, compared with teachers who do not feel barriers. It implies that opportunities for teacher training program need to be expanded.

Many developing countries consider ICT as a key enabler to improve their educational systems and teachers are viewed as change agents. This paper aims to present policy suggestions concerning how to foster teachers' ICT competencies in developing countries based on the outcomes of an ODA project case in Peru. This study was conducted through three stages: Literature survey, site visit, and policy suggestions. To draw relevant policy suggestions, we employed the framework of the 'macro-meso-micro' level of teacher professional development. The following policy suggestions are discussed: (a) macro level: to develop the national framework of teacher ICT competencies and competency-based teacher training, (b) meso-level: to promote teacher communities of practices and school-based research programs, and (c) micro-level: to redesign teacher professional development programs to help teachers better understand the complex relationships between content, pedagogy, and technology, beyond learning about basic ICT literacy skills. This study contributes to the understanding of how ODA projects can approach the issue of teacher ICT capacity building at multiple levels.

Objectives: The purposes of this study were to describe comprehensive health promotion policies for university students in Korea and to discuss the implications based on the socio-ecological approaches. Methods: A web-based search was performed to identify empirical programs and literature to develop health promotion policies and strategies in university settings. Results: Five domains for policy development are suggested for comprehensive health promotion policies in universities: evidence-based policy development; establishment of supportive policy through network and partnership; infrastructure of university; systems approach with education, environment, enforcement and policy tailored for universities; and sustainability for policy implementation. Conclusions: For healthy universities and students, government, community, health professionals, organizations and universities are all responsible as main agents for the five domains suggested in this study. Multi-level approaches with political, organizational and environmental changes should be sustained as an ongoing process.
