A standardized scoring system for college interview entrance examination means we standardize the score of examination to adjust the degree of difficulty among questions and difference of panel's disposition. A standardized scoring system were newly enforced at college interview entrance examination from 2001. Colleges want to choose the most suitably qualified students, taking full advantage of interview examination. Also they should always prepare for questions, plan the answers and a standardized scoring system so that all candidates get a fair shake. The main purpose of this paper is to provide a standardized scoring system for interview examination. The results of interview examination are ranked from highest to lowest and each candidate have different rank from several panels. So some unit scores from panels are given for each candidate using standard normal distribution. Then we calculate the mean unit score for each candidate and final interview entrance examination scores are given using the mean unit score for each candidate.

This study investigates the comprehensive system for collecting intelligent learning activity data tailored to learner-centered personalized education. We compared and analyzed the characteristics of xAPI, Caliper analytics, and cmi5, which are learning activity data collection standards, and established a system that allows not only standardized data but also non-standardized learning activity data to be stored as big data for artificial intelligence learning analysis. As a result, the system was structured into five stages: defining data types, standardizing learning data using xAPI, storing big data, conducting learning analysis (statistical and AI-based), and providing learner-tailored services. The aim was to establish a foundation for analyzing learning data using artificial intelligence technology. In future research, we will divide the entire system into three stages, implement and execute it, and correct and supplement any shortcomings in the design.

It is not stipulated concretely in the Food Sanitation Act what the standardized school food service dieticians indices and the dietician's duties and task elements should be. Therefore, this study was required. The specific purposes of this study were : a) to define the school food service dietician's duties and task elements, b) to estimate the performance frequency and work hours of the dietician's duties and task elements c) to investigate the job specification of the dietician over school food services, d) to develop the standardized indices of the dietician needed in school food service operation. For this study, school food service dietician's work functions were defined in 10 duties and 60 task elements based on the studies precedented and literature review and pilot test process. This study was conducted in school food service systems nationwide using written questionnaire and interview with the official in charge and delphi technique. The questionnaires were mailed to the dieticians of three types of school food service systems. Of the 660 schools that participated in this study, the 624 responses were selected for analysis. Statistical analyses were performed with SAS/Win 6.12 program so as to provide a descriptive statistics, T-test, ANOVA. The main results of this study could be summarized as follows: A characteristic common to all the school food service systems was that 'cooking and distribution management' took the longest hours of work, while 'nutrition education' took the shortest hours of work. The standardized index of dietician over school food service was one person in conventional system independently of the number of meals per day. In the commissary system, according to the numbers of meals served per day, it was 0.95-1.38 persons and 1.27-1.55 persons and 1.40-1.91 persons. In joint management system, the standardized index was 1.03-1.42 persons in case of serving less than 700 meals per day.
