The Korea government has recently announced "A Master Plan for Smart Education", including application of digital textbooks and composition of education system using cloud computing. Our education system in future circumstance, over the conventional e-learning methods, needs the smart education solutions which enable students to study and communicate on various types of devices. The ongoing government project related with the digital textbook has been performed as mid- and long-term goals, whereas PDF-based e-textbook project, similar to e-book model and, has been already completed for the short-term goal. For the purpose of improved future smart education circumstance, however, a specific strategy is required in the following areas: flexibility of format conversion and independency of original text sources among the multiple device platforms. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a standardization scheme for e-textbook format based on e-book structure. To do this, we survey trends in e-book technologies, and research on standardization of e-book format for digitalization of textbooks, based on the analysis of existing textbooks. Moreover, we produce an example e-book content using our proposed standard method. As a result, our approach can be applied to the future smart education circumstance, and we may say that it will be efficiently applicable to the long-term digital textbook project.

In 2014, third and fourth graders in primary schools will start using digital textbooks for social science, science, and English. Fifth and sixth graders will follow the next year. Given this situation, this study investigated the awareness of digital textbooks by primary school teachers who did not have direct experience with digital textbooks. Also studied was the teachers' acceptance of digital textbooks, based on the Technology Acceptance Model. The results showed that most respondents were not ready to use digital textbooks, and they were apprehensive about their use. However, if the teachers were required to use digital textbooks, usefulness and playfulness were key factors in their acceptance.

This study investigated the effects of problem-solving competency of students when they studied with digital textbook contents and digital inking in collaborative learning. The experimental group solved the math problems using basic digital textbook contents and digital inking while the control group solved the math problems using basic digital textbook contents alone. The result of analysis and comparison is as follows, the experimental group with basic digital textbook contents and digital inking showed more improved problem-solving competency than that of the control group with basic digital textbook contents alone, the experimental group showed recorded a higher satisfactory level than that of the control group.

최근 스마트기기 보급의 확산과 이러닝 환경의 고도화로 이러닝 산업의 패러디임이 변화하면서 스마트 디바이스를 통한 학습형태의 스마트러닝이 주목받고 있다. 이처럼 스마트러닝이 부각되면서 기존의 이러닝 콘텐츠를 스마트 디바이스 환경에서도 제공 받고자 하는 사용자들의 요구가 증가하고 있지만 현재 기존 PC기반으로 구현된 이러닝 콘텐츠를 스마트기기에 적용하는데 있어 다양한 문제가 발생하고 있다. 특히 가장 근본적인 문제는 표준에 기인한다고 할 수 있으며 이를 해결하기 위해서는 콘텐츠에 대한 표준화가 필수적인 요소로 작용한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 최근 국내에서 전자책 및 디지털교과서 개발에 표준으로 자리잡고 있는 EPUB 3.0을 준용하여 기존 이러닝 콘텐츠의 데이터 포맷을 변경하고 표준화된 형태로 다양한 스마트 디바이스에 적용이 가능한 디지털교과서 솔루션을 설계하였다.

This study is the design and implementation of digital textbooks for elementary school computer education based on smart phone. It suggests how to cultivate self-directed learning ability depending on the level and selection of individuals by maximizing on interaction as advantage of digital textbooks. As the content of the digital textbooks, this study used Excel's charting capabilities. As a result of the evaluation of elementary learners having a implemented digital textbook, execution time of creating a chart is reduced in comparison with paper-based textbook user group.

Smart Education began with the smart generation. But It did not activated and stopped Provisionally. Because Digital contents for smart education are low quality, and education devices are expensive. In this paper, we analyze compatibility and usability of essential digital textbook and device in smart education. Through this paper to indicate the optimum effectiveness in using a limited budget. To activate the smart education spread again. To enhance its position as the home of Smart Education. Improve the quality of education and to contribute to the future development of the nation.

The dissemination of smart appliances, along with the development of the latest information and communication technology has an effect on society. Their application can be seen in the smart learning environment, by use of digital textbooks with smart devices in the classroom. Hence in this study, the 4L-ACC activity using digital textbooks was applied in the third grade social studies class to improve critical thinking and problem solving skills of elementary school students. This study compared and analyzed the impact in critical thinking and problem-solving skills using digital textbooks versus standard social studies classes. As a result, in social studies classes that used the 4L-ACC activity compared to common social studies classes, elementary student's problem understanding, critical thinking, problem resolution, reflective thinking, and all lower areas of critical thinking and problem-solving were improved. In conclusion, using digital textbooks enhance student's ability to think critically and problem solve. This should provide learners a more comprehensive learning experience and therefore be integrated into more education environment.

"SMART" is a word to condense a new kind of educational system recently proposed by the Korean government. It signifies an intelligent adaptive learning system to innovate the educational environment, the contents, methodology and assessment. Developing a digital textbook was one of the main strategic goals to drive forward "smart" education. The Korean government expected to finish the development of digital textbooks of science, mathematics, social studies and English by 2013 and to have a field experiment for them in 2014. However, the case of mathematics was postponed for an indefinite period because its draft version was no different from a traditional textbook in its functional aspect. This situation might come from the non-existence of a good authoring tool and an inexperienced sense by developers of the opportunities available with digital textbooks. This paper introduces the main features for developing a digital mathematics textbook for the 12th grade students, which was developed in the environment of Cabri LM as an authoring tool. This paper also looks upon the results of a whole lesson using the textbook in managing the classroom interaction with students.

The study looks for keys to provide development direction of digital textbooks based on educational meaning and roles for increasing satisfaction of teacher and student uses in educational activities. In the paradigm shift toward learner-centered pedagogy, digital textbooks have been actively discussed in exploiting the pedagogical ideas, such as multimedia learning, self-regulated learning, deeper learning, and collaborative learning, offered by the technology. In the study, we discuss the concept and historical background of digital textbooks based on the changes of pedagogical paradigm, and then we discuss fundamental functionality, effectiveness, physical and psychological impact, and cognitive aspects to empower the use of digital textbooks in public education system.
