본 연구는 대학 교수-학습의 주체자인 학생과 교수의 온라인 대중공개강좌(MOOC)에 대한 인식에 기초하여 개발 및 활용 전략을 탐색한 것이다. 대학 구성원 모두 MOOC의 기본 개념인 개방, 공유, 참여에 대해 긍정적으로 인식하였으며, MOOC에 대한 이해와 인식 수준은 학부생과 대학원생이 매우 낮은 반면 교수는 그에 비해 상대적으로 높았다. 대학 교육과정의 혁신과 고유 콘텐츠의 확산 목적의 MOOC이 인문학, 자연과학, 사회과학, 기술공학, 예체능 영역의 강좌가 개발되길 원했다. 대학의 학습 주체자인 학부생들은 MOOC이 교양 교육과정 이수나타분야 기초 학습, 비교과 과정으로 이수할 수 있길 원했고, 평생 학습자인 대학원생은 지역시민의 평생교육 강화를 위해 MOOC이 개발 활용되길 원했다. 고품질 교육의 제공자이자 평생 학습자인 교수는 대학교육의 혁신과 고유 콘텐츠의 확산을 목적으로 해당 전공 과정의 심화학습에 MOOC이 활용되기를 원했다. 앞으로 대학은 다양한 MOOC 개발을 지원하고 이수체계를 정립하여 고도화된 고품질 온라인 교육 서비스를 제공해야 할 것이다.

ABEEK's professional liberal arts education reflecting critical thinking, has been well received by professors and students in the engineering discipline. Also, the demand for further utilization of critical thinking within the engineering curriculum is increasing. To meet such demand, there is a need for experts in the area of critical thinking education and engineering education to come together and search for the most effective method in using critical thinking in engineering design education courses. In this paper, we were able to confirm, through specific application cases, that the problem-solving process of critical thinking can be effectively transferred to an engineering design process, and the elements and criteria of critical thinking can be used as a successful design tool. Also, we explore the possibility of further improving engineering education on the basis of critical thinking.

Usability heuristics는 사용자 인터페이스를 설계하는 과정에서 유용성 평가에 사용되는 일반적인 원칙이다. 유용성 평가 방법은 보통 Human Computer Interaction(HCI) 전문가들이 사용하는데, 이 연구의 최종적인 목적은 HCI 전문가들 뿐 만이 아니라 사용자 인터페이스를 제작하는 더 광범위한 많은 사람들(사용자 인터페이스 디자이너나 엔지니어들)에게 적용하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유용성 평가에서 대표적으로 사용되는 Jakob Nielsen의 10가지 usability heuristics가 HCI 전문가가 아닌 디자인과 컴퓨터 공학 교수 및 학생들이 얼마나 이해하기 쉬운지를 설문하였다. 또한 응답한 설문을 바탕으로 어떤 heuristics들이 이해하기 쉬었으며, 이해하기 어려운 것들은 어떠한 이유로 이해하기가 어려웠는지, 또 교수들과 학생들과의 이해정도의 차이나 응답반응의 차이 등을 분석하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻게 된 가장 큰 성과는 응답자들이 좀 더 사용자 입장에서 어플리케이션들을 바라볼 수 있게 되었다는 점이었으며, 본 연구의 결과들은 usability heuristics를 좀 더 많은 사람들이 쉽게 이해할 수 있도록 만들어서 인터페이스를 설계하고 구현하는데 도움이 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the current status of team learning in engineering education. For this, literature review and survey were used. The survey was conducted with 16 professors and 627 students in engineering college. Based on the results, team should be organized in consideration of various characteristics and competencies for effective team learning activities in engineering education. And in the team learning operations, it is necessary to make the conditions for students to immerse in team learning through the activation of communication of team members, tightening management of free riding in team learning, and optimizing team learning period. It is necessary to use the team learning evaluation method in harmony with the team, individual and peer evaluation.

Problem-based learning (PBL) in engineering education has been implemented in various ways. The wide range of PBL methods sometimes creates difficulties in implementing PBL. The purpose of this study was to identify the major variables that a teacher considers in PBL designs for an engineering course and suggest specific PBL methods according to the PBL design variables. This study was conducted using a review research method involving 21 studies from a range of engineering education fields. The results showed that the major variables that engineering professors need to consider when applying PBL are the authenticity of the PBL problem and the method of providing knowledge or information that the learners must know to solve the given problem. Based on the two variables identified, the following four types of PBL methods for engineering education are suggested: 1) lecture-based problem, 2) guided problem-based learning, 3) problem-based learning and 4) co-op problem-based learning.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current conditions of the domestic and foreign curricula in the field of chemical engineering and to draw implications. The results of the study are as follows. Most of the domestic research universities (including non-certified universities) have curricula organized within the scope of the ABEEK certification, which is the minimum standard guide for chemical engineering curricula. However, we are concerned that chemical engineering education in some domestic universities may lack in education quality and program relevance. Graduates from these universities may not have equivalent qualifications as international graduates. It is considered that most of the 12 domestic universities organize their subjects according to the certificate of accreditation standard and to the traditional subjects of chemistry in the 'Department of Chemical Engineering' or 'Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering Chemical and Biological Engineering'. However, due to the increase in the number of overlapping subjects with other majors because of the movement towards academic diversity, the integrity of the chemical engineering curricula is at risk. In addition, after surveying the major and research areas of the department professors, it has been found that there is a shortage of professors who have majored in chemical engineering. Therefore, there is a concern that students may lack understanding of the core principles of chemical engineering. The results of the analysis of the curricula of overseas research universities (including non-certified universities) are as follows. Although the chemical engineering industry in developed countries like the United States and Europe is advancing and changing very quickly, the chemical engineering education in these countries is highly focused on traditional subjects and other related subjects in order to cultivate traditionally trained chemical engineers. The Department of Chemical Engineering at overseas universities still maintains the academic integrity of the chemical engineering field. This is a significant suggestion for our country. On the other hand, domestic universities are changing the name of their chemical engineering major, or even if the name is maintained, they are fusing their curriculum with other majors such as material engineering. Therefore, it is very necessary at this point to start a discussion regarding the integrity of the department of chemical engineering in Korea. We hope that the departments of chemical engineering in domestic universities maintain the integrity of traditional chemical engineering while operating the curriculum within the scope of the standards of the engineering education certification system.

This study proposes a means of guiding undergraduate research assistants programs in a more positive direction. This will be achieved by researching the reality of the programs operated in engineering departments for graduate school students and by analyzing the problems thereof. To achieve this objective, a literature study and research were conducted, which comprised of a survey on 204 graduate school students within the metropolitan area of Korea. The results of the study demonstrated that experience as an undergraduate research assistant has a positive influence on the adaptation to and life in graduate school. However, the role of the student and the level of salary varied depending on the role of the student, based on the capacity and support of individual professors. Thus, it is deemed that there will be a need for systematic program improvement and the development of a program that can provide significant academic activities, rather than simple experimental assistance.

The skill that meets the intellectual and technical requirements in workplace is called hard skill. The counter part of it is 'softskills' which enhances an individual's interactions, job performance and career prospects. It becomes more necessary skill as society changes. In this paper we first show the demand for the softskill improvement education for engineering major students. Then we introduce a 'softskill improvement education' program developed by the "Center for innovative engineering education" in a University. The contents of the program are chosen by the needs of society, companies that hire our students, ABEEK educational objectives and consulting from professors. To improve the skills we used various activities as tools which are mentioned and introduced. The evaluation of the program results are discussed. We suggest some ways to improve the program.
