  • The entrepreneurial university concept is a new challenge and opportunity for science and technology universities in Korea. The traditional university functions of education, research, and community service are still highly relevant, but increasingly so are new types of collaboration for research outcomes and funding resources. Strategic university management is needed to handle socioeconomic contribution, involving the creation and maintenance of proactive relationships with firms, national and regional governments, and other regional entities. The emergence of the entrepreneurial university in Korea is similar to the socioeconomic changes observable in the history of university development in America and in many other developed countries. In this paper, we examine the emerging paradigm of entrepreneurial universities in Korea and discuss the interactions among universities, firms, and government strategy and policy by investigating and comparing two universities, POSTECH and KAIST, in their leadership, adaptation to changes in the environment, business strategies, organization, and cooperative network. We conclude with policy points that emphasize the fact that while entrepreneurial universities are an emerging concept, they can expand innovation and creativity in education and research in Korean universities in the mid-to-long term if university administration, policymakers and public administrators, and regional innovation actors take an interest in the need for a new organization and system where university research can contribute socioeconomically.

  • 이 연구는 그동안 일본의 교육개혁 동향에 관한 국책연구기관의 연구가 미흡하고, 개인 연구들이 다소 지엽적인 과제에 대한 소개에 머물고 있다는 점에 착안하여, 최근 일본교육개혁 정책들을 문부과학성 및 중앙교육심의회를 중심으로 분석하여 그 특징을 추출하고 이를 전제로 개별 정책에 대한 평가를 시도하였다. 정책과정에 있어서 특징 분석은 체제분석방법을 원용하였다. 즉, '개혁정책의 배경 및 목표'를 통하여 투입측면을, '문부과학성과 중앙교육심의회를 거치는 정책의 수립과정'을 통하여는 과정측면을, '정책의 실효성 검증 및 반응'에서는 산출측면을, 그리고 환류 및 환경측면에서는 '정책 이해관계자와 사회의 합의 및 이해' 상황을 준거로 하여 진단하였다. 연구방법으로는 문헌연구방법(문부성 보고서 및 단행본, 논문)과 일본 현지를 방문하여 핵심관계자를 면담(중앙교육심의회 부회장등)하였고, 주제별 논객과의 대담과 현장 교사와의 면담도 실시하였다. 일본 교육개혁의 배경은 고도화와 경쟁력 가치에 두나 여유교육이라는 일본적 가치가 강조되었고 학력논쟁으로 이어졌다. 정책의 수립과정은 문부성에서 내각 등 정치권으로 옮겨가고 있는 특징을 보였다. 정책의 결과는 실효성 측면에서 현장으로부터 외면받는 경우가 적지 않았는데 현실에 대한 진단이 불충분한 정치적 실험과정이었다는 것이 원인이었다. 정책의 환류 면에서 결정과정이 공개되고 의견수렴 절차가 마련되어 있으나 객관적인 평가환류 시스템을 갖추지는 못했다. 교육개혁 정책에 대한 개별적 평가는 최근의 교육진흥기본계획, 교육기본법 개정, 수장의 교육개혁, 지방교육행정개혁, 교원개혁 정책 등에 걸쳐 살펴보았다.

  • Entrepreneurship has been considered as an engine to lead economy, which has been resulting in a focus on entrepreneurship education to promote entrepreneurship. This paper focuses on science and engineering students, and analyzes the relationship between entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurship level. The response results of 950 students (34 universities) were as follows. First, the entrepreneurship level of science and engineering students are a little high but not as significant more than non-science and engineering. Second, science and engineering students have an impact on the level of entrepreneurship about entrepreneurship courses. Third, entrepreneurship courses and clubs have an effect on entrepreneurship level. As a conclusion, we have to improve the quality of entrepreneurship education, recognize startup as a credit, and build up entrepreneurship education ecosystem through the local area network.

  • With the development of science and technology, an effort to investigate the current research trend of elementary science education will lead to future directions for elementary science education. This study set out to analyze papers published in Elementary Science Education by quantity, subject and methodology for the last ten years. The results were as follows: First, the number of papers has continuously increased for the last 30 years. Second, as for categorization by the functions of elementary science education, the number of papers was mainly published in the field of teacher education, which was followed by learning processes and teaching methods in the order. Third, in the field of the research subjects of elementary science education, many researches were conducted on scientific inquiries and concepts traditionally emphasized in elementary science education, and on gifted education recently implemented as part of national policy. Fourth, as for categorization by the methodologies of elementary science education, a survey study was the most popular, being followed by experimental study and literature study in the order. In recent years, researches based on the case study methodology have visibly grown in numbers, which seems to part of efforts to find implications with new methodologies among researchers facing limitations with the old ones in the middle of uniqueness called education.

  • 본 연구는 일본의 학부과정 도서관학 교육의 형성과정을 문헌 분석을 통해 역사적으로 규명하는데 목적이 있다. 연구 결과, 교육제도적 측면에서 본 일본의 도서관학 교육정책은 2차대전 이전의 정책을 승계한 것인데 반해 미국의 정책은 새로운 유형의 교육모델을 설치하는 것이었다. 1951년 미육군성과 미국도서관협회(ALA)의 계약 체결로 게이오대학에 미국식 도서관학 교육모델이 설립되었다. 그러나 현재 게이오대학 모델은 일본의 도서관학 교육의 주류모델로 성장하지 못했고 이는 결국 미국식 도서관학 교육모델의 도입이 성공하지 못했다는 것을 의미한다. 2차대전 이후 아시아에서 가장 빠른 시기에 미국식 도서관학 교육모델이 도입된 일본에 관한 본 연구가 향후 도서관사 연구영역의 확장 또는 대상국을 확대한 후속연구로 이어지기를 기대한다.

  • This study aims is to explore of the theoretical concepts of regional imbalances and spatial inequality, analysis of spatial distribution of economic growth and identifying of "growth poles" for sustainable development in the regions of Kazakhstan. Based on the theoretical views, we conclude that the key direction of regional policy is the search and development of "growth poles", which will distribute their potential equally to backward regions. The authors propose the methodological tools for presenting a standard form of evaluation of spatial distribution and inequality of the regions of Kazakhstan. This study confirms the importance of using of proposed methods and its application for objectively and realistically defines "growth poles" for sustainable development. Further, the obtained results showed the distribution of Kazakhstan's regions by economic growth and specialization with using modified index of KDI. According to the results of this theoretical and empirical study proved that distribution of the regions of Kazakhstan and results of KDI indexes shows that the spatial differentiation of economic development, but its level and dynamics are different in different respects. In addition, according to the conducted survey, we conclude that one of the most important tasks is sustainable growth based on "growth poles" for sustainable development.

  • This paper considers that a public department under specialized TQM manpower constraints have to implement multiple total quality management (TQM) policies to promote its service performance (fundamental goal) by adopting a centralized sequential advancement strategy (CSAS). Under CSAS, the decision-makers (DMs) start off by focusing specialized TQM manpower on a single policy, then transfer the specialized TQM manpower to the next policy when the first policy reaches the predetermined implementation time limit (in terms of education and training). Suppose that each TQM policy has a different desirous education and training goal. When the desirous goals for all TQM policies are achieved, we say that the fundamental goal will be satisfied. Within the limitation of total implementation period of time for all policies, assume the desirous goals for all TQM policies cannot be achieved completely. Under this premise, the optimal implementation sequence for all TQM policies must be calculated to maximize the weighted achievement of the desirous goal. We call this optimization problem a TQM case of "centralized sequential decision-making problem (CSDMP)". The achievement of the desirous goal for each TQM policy is usually affected by the experience in prior implemented policies, which makes solving CSDMP quite difficult. As a result, this paper introduces the concepts of sequential effectiveness and path effectiveness. The structural properties are then studied to propose theoretical methods for solving CSDMP. Finally, a numerical example is proposed to demonstrate CSDMP′s usability.
