This study aimed to explore alignments among three curricula based on the contents of the university level curriculum. The 2015 revised curriculum, International Baccalaureate(IB), and Next Generation Science Standards(NGSS) were selected for this study, and a college textbook was analyzed to compare the curricula. As the age groups studying the curricular were different, we reorganized them according to school ages prior to conducting the study. The results of the analysis were: first, the contents of the 2015 revised curriculum did not sufficiently elaborate on the natural hazards related to humans, unlike the university level, IB PYP, and NGSS curricula. Third, there are different ways of introducing scientific vocabulary curricula, meaning that the number of scientific vocabularies in the 2015 revised curriculum was less than that in the IB, PYP, and NGSS.

Results and Conclusion: First, concerning the educational objectives, it is necessary that more various educational objectives are included to medical curriculum. Especially, there is a growing need for medical curriculum reflecting social responsibility and requests of local community. Second, educational contents should be constantly improved and constructed considering students' academic achievement levels and traits. Third, not only students but also educational program, educational contents, and professors should be included to the objects of educational assessment. Also, various assessment methods should be developed. Finally, especially for domestic medical schools, it is necessary to make use of more educational specialists in medical education.

There are some geometry achievement standards presented indistinctly in middle school mathematics curriculum revised in 2011. In this study, indistinctness of some geometric topics presented indistinctly such as symbol $\overline{AB}{\perp}\overline{CD}$ simple construction, properties of congruent plane figures, solid of revolution, determination condition of the triangle, justification, center of similarity, position of similarity, middle point connection theorem in triangle, Pythagorean theorem, properties of inscribed angle are discussed. The following three agenda is suggested as conclusions for the development of next middle school mathematics curriculum. First is a resolving unclarity of curriculum.

The purpose of this study is to find out the level relevance of the kindergarten curriculum in terms of the kindergarten and elementary school curriculum articulation. For this purpose, a model was developed to assess the level relevance of the curriculum. Next, the achievement standards of the curriculum were analyzed by using this model. Finally, teachers' guidebooks were analyzed, too. The following results were obtained from the analysis. First, five of the 14 achievement standards are rated as 'relevant', and nine of them were 'irrelevant'. Also, six of the irrelevant achievement standards were rated as 'overlap', two of them were rated as 'retrogression', and one of them was rated as 'gap'. I found a lot of problems with the level relevance in the kindergarten curriculum. As the results to analyze teachers' guidebooks, I found that there were the great frequency difference in the activities of teachers' guidebooks.
