According to analysis of the effectiveness of digital textbooks for the last three years, it was turned out that student's ICT ability is the most effective factor, Also, that is the basic ability required to use digital textbooks. Therefore, in this paper, the effects of ICT ability on various factors were analyzed. For this purpose, after the level of learner's ICT ability was divided into upper, middle, and lower, and the effects of each level on social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability) were analyzed. As a result, It turned out that student's ICT ability has a close correlation with social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability), and has a significant effect on that. In particular, the group with lower level of ICT ability had the greatest influence on social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability), and the group with upper level had the greatest influence on that in score improvement. Therefore, this paper suggests that various types of ICT literacy education are needed to use effective digital textbooks.

Ability diagnosis is similar to medical diagnosis from a number of perspectives. However, a medical diagnosis is carried out by a direct observation through medical apparatuses, while an ability diagnosis is made by an indirect observation in the from of testing. In this respect, ability diagnosis is more difficult than medical diagnosis. Confined to middle school 1st year Mathematics, we collected survey data in 1996 from monthly tests. The data consist of student responses to diagnosis results on their abilities and of the effects of catch-up guidances for individual students which are provided based on their ability diagnosis outcomes. We analyzed the data and summarized the result in the paper. One of the main results is that the ability diagnosis as used in the paper has a very positive effect on catch-up study. But it is important to note that the effects vary across the ability groups, the effect appearing weaker in the lower ability group than in the higher ability group. This calls our attention to the need that the ability diagnosis and guidance for the catch-up study be differentiated among ability groups.

In the previous study on the effectiveness of SW education, the educational goals were mainly focused on developing computational thinking ability and researching changes in computational thinking ability. But the word "computational thinking" is difficult to the public. Also the definition of computational thinking is varies from scholar to scholar. Therefore, this study aims to inform the public of the excellence and effectiveness of SW education through the change of "writing ability" which is more familiar to us. To achieve this goal, 10 lectures of SW training materials were produced and conducted in elementary science gifted class. As a result, significant changes have been made in the fluency and quality of writing skills, proving that SW training improves students' writing skills. Through this, we confirmed the visible results through SW education, which can be called justification of SW education. Furthermore, it is expected that various educational attempts will be developed using SW in other subjects.

Since the establishment of Security Business Act in 1976, the Korean private security industry has rapidly grown in the qualitative and quantitative aspects. In the circumstance, various roles of private security guards have been demanded. A private security guard as the first contactor of the users of multi-use facilities should first find an accident field situation and make a response when an accident occurs, and should give first aid as most as possible until emergency medical workers arrive. However, there is a lack of first-aid education for the private security guards who are responsible for the safety of facility users. Therefore, the purpose of this study is first to find how many times private security guards have job and first-aid education, and analyze how the education count influences their first-aid ability; secondly to analyze how private security guards' satisfaction with first-aid education influences their first-aid ability. To achieve the purpose, this researcher conducted a questionnaire survey on first-aid ability of the private security guards working in the metropolitan areas. For data analysis, Stata se/ 14.0ver was applied. For the analysis on validity and reliability, exploratory factor analysis was conducted and a Cronbach's a value was drawn. To find the actual conditions of first-aid education, frequency analysis, inter-group difference analysis, and multi-regression analysis were conducted. According to the data analysis, there were not enough times of job education and first-aid education for private security guards, and their satisfaction with first-aid education and first-aid ability were difference depending on the job and first-aid education counts. Also, their satisfaction with first-aid education partially influenced their first-aid ability.
