  • Education emphasizes problem-solving skills based on convergent thinking power in an era of rising uncertainty and rapid progress. This paper proactively designed e-Learning team teaching convergence liberal arts courses for prospective teachers by these social needs. It analyzed the empirical effects on the operation of the subjects to foster future talent who can converge and apply knowledge in various fields. The curriculum consisted of professors of mathematics, practical Arts, computer, and education, and was operated to convey convergent knowledge of information technology and humanities, and consisted of 15 liberal arts courses at J University. Besides, textbooks and teaching materials were also developed by the faculty. As a result of the primary research, prospective teachers who took the course generally showed high satisfaction with the class, especially for the faculty. The students' overall convergent thinking ability has increased to a statistically significant level (p<.01), and the students' major has been found to be irrelevant. On the other hand, it can be seen that communication, content convergence, and caring factors, excluding creativity factor, have all risen to a significant level.

  • Contemporary lectures in undergraduate engineering courses typically focus on teaching major technical knowledge-based theories in a limited time. Therefore, most lectures do not allow the students to gain understanding of how the theories are applied, especially in Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering departments. Shipyards require students to acquire practical ship design skills in undergraduate courses. To meet this requirement, two lectures are organized by the authors; namely, "Planning Procedure of Naval Architecture & Ocean Engineering" (PNAOE) and "Innovative Ship Design" (ISD). The concept of project-based and collaborative learning is applied in these two lectures. In the PNAOE lecture, sophomores receive instruction in the designing and building of model ships, and the students' work is evaluated in a model ship contest. This curriculum enables students to understand the concepts of ship design and production. In the ISD lecture, seniors learn how to develop their creative ideas about ship design and communicate with members of group. They are encouraged to cooperate with others and understand the ship design process. In the capstone design course, students receive guidance to facilitate understanding of how the knowledge from their sophomore or junior classes, such as fluid mechanics, statics, and dynamics, can be applied to practical ship design. Students are also encouraged to compete in the ship design contest organized by the Society of Naval Architects of Korea. Moreover, the effectiveness of project-based and collaborative learning for enhancing interest in the shipbuilding Industry and understanding the ship design process is demonstrated by citing the PNAOE and ISD lectures as examples.

  • The purpose of this study is to review and draw lessons from the case of Family and Consumer Sciences(FCS) curriculums in Ohio and to provide implications to the designing of HE elective courses for high schools in Korea. For this, 19 curriculum documents that are available from the website of the Ohio Ministry of Education were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, the following conclusions were drawn: First, following the example of the Ohio Pathway which was developed in consideration of the characteristics of the field, college admission, student's interests, and the societal change, it is recommended that Korean HE curriculum consider developing HE Pathway that reflects the characteristics of Korean HE education system. Second, Ohio's FCS curriculum offers a well-structured system consisting of total 18 courses and contents within the four broad FCS Pathway themes. Thus, it is suggested that the Korean Home Economics Education Association organize a task force to develop 'HE Pathways'-'College majors'-'Elective career focused courses', and student-centered career exploratory elective courses focusing on the students' needs. Third, it is necessary for HE teachers and professors to newly develop basic elective courses which lays the foundation for understanding of Home Economics and help students to follow advanced HE elective courses. Lastly, there is a need for designing career-focused elective courses that can provide practical resources for the college admission process by interviewing college admission officers, education specialists, career counselors, college admission specialists, home economic professors and teachers.

  • Software education is an important subject in the era of forth industrial evolution generation, and the number of hours is gradually expanding in Korea's elementary and secondary curriculum, and universities have also opened software-related courses to take liberal arts mandatory regardless of major. The Ministry of Education presented elementary and secondary school programming achievement standards and emphasized the connection between prerequisite subjects as educational goals. Applicants for programming classes at H University also completed information classes in elementary and secondary courses, but many students were new to programming without taking related classes. Therefore, this study analyzed the data using the survey data and achievement scores of programming learners. As a result of the analysis, information classes completed in elementary and secondary courses were not linked to higher education courses at all, and improvements for problem solving were derived. This study is meaningful as a study for effective software education in higher education courses.

  • This study aims to answer the following questions: 'Do university students who are satisfied with their online courses have higher academic achievement?' and 'What are the key self-regulated learning strategy factors that influence satisfaction and academic performance?'. To do this, this study conducted a survey of university students taking online courses and collected a total of 95 questionnaires. Research method used structural equation model. The results of the analysis showed that, First, satisfaction and academic achievement in university online courses were found to be unrelated. Second, the factors affecting satisfaction and academic achievement were found to be different. Time management was analyzed as a significant factor affecting both satisfaction and academic achievement, while interaction was found to affect satisfaction only. These findings can be used as a basis for developing practical policies to prioritize and support self-regulated learning as an effective teaching method in university online courses.

  • Objectives: This study was performed to investigate the level of participation in and satisfaction with training courses at job training institutions and to improve participation and satisfaction through changes in the training method for industrial ventilation subjects. Methods: The results were analyzed for the mean and standard deviation by t-test and ANOVA, (p=0.05). Participation rates were examined for three courses: specialization, job training, and supervisory. The participation inthe education was 428 people, and the result of satisfaction with the change of education method was 878 people. Satisfaction was investigated for the specialized curriculum and job training curriculum,but not the supervisor curriculum. The satisfaction results for six items(contents, quality, skill, level, degree of understanding, degree of practical) were analyzed according to the change in the training medium and the method among people in one occupational ventilation subject. Results: The participation rate was similar in the job training and specialized training courses, but the lowest rate was in supervisory courses(p=0.05). In general, there was the lowest participation on the first day of education, and the participation rate improved after the second day. Satisfaction with the course was high for the specialized education course with a number of practical education assignments(p=0.278). The satisfaction level for the teaching method in the industrial ventilation subjects was high in a mixed group which combined lecture and practice. The industrial ventilation course in the basic job training course showed a difference between lecture and mixed education(p=0.111), but there was no significant difference. However, the industrial ventilation course in the advance job training course showed a clear difference between lecture and the mixed education(p=0.036). Conclusions: Therefore, the first day of training should start in the afternoon so that more trainees can participate, and it is recommended to assign important subjects after two days. In addition, it is suggested that job competency-enhancing education utilize various educational methods and media.

  • A movement of visitor is a practical means that provides a spatial arrangement of exhibits and validity to that principle. Thus, an exhibition of a museum cannot be completed by an intrinsic value of exhibition itself. Thereby the purpose of this thesis is finding out the relationship between the visitors' pattern and spatial configuration in museum. As a result, as for the visitors' movement, it was grasped that diversified patterns of movements could appear in case the selections of courses are diversified within the environment in that the general understanding about the spaces was easy. That is, the exhibition environment in that general understanding about the spaces is easy because of the low depth of the exhibition space recognized from the entrance of the exhibition space and composition of exhibition space with diversified selections of courses may induce diversity of viewing patterns. That is, it may mean that in such composition of space, visitors may establish viewing courses based on their own purposes of viewing and preference thus they form individual spatial experiences themselves.

  • Recently, children's deaths are found to be mostly caused by various accidents in Korea. But it is in reality that the safety training are very roughly conducted, and even contemporarily appropriate training materials are not sufficiently furnished contrary to the increasing significance of the safety training to reduce the children's accidental risks. This study is to compare and analyze the safety training courses of domestic and overseas elementary schools and various safety training materials. This study is purposed ultimately to reduce the accidental risks of elementary school students by suggesting the future development direction. It is concluded in this study that more appropriate safety training courses and materials should be provided to train the students to habituate their safe behaviors with a view to protect the elementary school students against the accidents. In addition, the safety training should be conducted consistently by reflecting the students' characters, and the pertinent training materials should be developed for the students' spontaneous learning and for more practical preventive training.
