Now, there are some problems to manage underground facilities in domestic. Specially, in the case of KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation), it is so difficult to manage electronic line more stably and detailedly because the geographic information and attribute information being built is not easy to be updated in the field. KEPCO officials who are accompanying management and supervision in earthwork do not have sufficient knowledge and information about GIS but they grasp the information of geography and property which coincide with the field. Therefore they have to refer their business analysis contents sufficiently for more efficient lines management in the KEPCO, but it is problem that the existing information of electronic lines management system is not. In this study, we constructed power transmission and power distribution underground facility management system for the user to manage and maintain underground facilities more easily and safely using the information of geography and property about power transmission and power distribution underground facility which have been built by KEPCO.

Industrial cluster is basically related to the concept of knowledge management in that innovations are pursued through knowledge sharing and knowledge exchanges in the level of related industries or adjacent regions. Recently, assertions that knowledge management is worth of application in the level of an industry or regional industrial cluster appear in academics and practitioners. This study explores the characteristics and challenges of knowledge management when it is applied in the level of an industrial cluster. Critical concepts and research questions are developed from the review on previous studies and explored through interpretive case studies and in-depth interviews.

Aiming to reveal the employment evolution around interstate highway corridors, an extended shift-share analysis is conducted for metropolitan areas in two interstate highway corridors on the U.S. east coast: I-95 and I-85. Our focus is on knowledge service sectors, specifically finance, insurance, business services and health services for two time periods, 1977-1990 and 1990-2005. In the first period, the two corridors' metropolitan areas have outperformed their regions in terms of both output and labor productivity. But this picture turned negative in later period with some variation by industries. Also variation in performance over time was found even in metropolitan areas in the same corridor or in geographically adjacent areas.

의사는 환자의 병을 낫게 하는 치료자가 아니라 환자가 병을 극복할 수 있도록 도와주는 가이드 역할을 할 뿐이다. 험준한 히말라야의 풍토와 지리를 잘 알고 있는 셀파가 등반대를 잘 가이드 하여 수많은 역경을 극복하고 정상에 도달할 수 있도록 도와주는 것처럼, 결핵환자를 진료하는 의사의 역할은 결핵에 대한 지식과 경험을 이용해 결핵 환자가 완치에 도달할 수 있도록 곁에서 도와주는 것이라고 생각된다.

The present education situations are rapidly changing to adapt to 'the Knowledge & Information-based Society'. Especially, the implementation of 'the 7th National Curriculum' put strong emphasis on the learner-centered education that refers to the ability grouping. Therefore, it is necessary that the change from a traditional teaching method to a learner-centered one in geography education will take place. This study will present a design of geography ability grouping through the Task-Solving Learning. This ability grouping method is suitable for the large class. And this study also presents a strategy by applying WBI, which make use of the advantage of computer and constructivism. This WBI model can be applied properly to many teaching-learning methods that includes Self-Directed Learning, Collaborate Learning, Ability Grouping, and Applying ICT Instruction. Actually they are demanded in the current education. A geography-classroom will have an accessible internet program as a precondition for this instruction.

The Chinese Geography Standards for Senior Secondary Schools(trial) was released in 2003. The Standards put forward some changes for senior geography education, the changes in geographical education are reflected explicitly and implicitly by the textbooks. The purpose of this descriptive study was to review of the improvement of Chinese senior geography education by analyzing contents organization and coherence of the new standards-based geography experimental textbooks. The results of study are as follows. The textbooks adopts a student-centered approach through the way of 'more chapter topics with slimmed contents' and by introducing four type activities, geographical inquiries. These student activities are implicity encourages students' active acquisition of geographical knowledge what they have learned in their real lives. The organic coherence of the textbooks' contents rests on the compulsory and the elective subject relating to diversification of the learning areas. The organic coherence between the compulsory and the elective subject rests on diversification of the learning areas. More, looking at the arrangement of the four basic concepts(population, resource, environment, sustainable development) among the textbooks, it was imbalanced by subject.

This study aims not only to examine the globalization, imformationization, and networking as background of knowledge-information-based society, but also to clarify the research fields of 'geography of knowledge' and further research themes for economic geography in a knowledge-information-based society. As a result of globalization, the degree of regional disparity, which had decreased with neoliberal policy in Europe and America in 1980's, has increased in early development states such as China and Eastern European countries. In opposition to the globalization that has led to increasing regional disparities at a global scale, many scholars argue that grassroots globalization or globalization from below is needed. Based on a pessimistic view on globalization, many maintain that unequal access to information has enlarged the gap between rich and poor. They also argue that the study of the geography of poverty is crucial in oder to solve the problem of bipolization. According to the world system theory, spatial grasp of commodity chains, actors' diversities, flows towards innovation in learning knowledges, and geographical, organizational, and institutional proximities are intertwined. Because these elements make significant influences each other in social networks, the interrelationships among those elements should be carefully considered. A 'geography of knowledge' deals with manufacturing, finance and service, media, cultural, and creative industries. Former researches in economic geography have tended to deal with those industries separately without attempting to make meaningful linkages among discussions on those industries.

This study analyzed on the content validity of the Korean geography subject evaluation questions on the College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT) from 2014 to 2016 regarding the national curriculum achievement standards. The main results are as follows. First, from 'the knowledge dimension' aspect, both the achievement standard and the CSAT questions showed the highest ratio of 'factual knowledge'. Second, from 'the cognitive process dimension' aspect, the percentage of 'understand' was the highest in the achievement standard, whereas in the CSAT questions, the ratio of 'analyze' and complex type of 'analyze' and 'understand' was the highest. Third, in the result of the analysis of the content validity of the Korean geography CSAT questions through proportion test, all of the analysis targets showed 'a little low'. Finally, the content validity analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the main types of the achievement standards and the CSAT questions in the 'Geomorphological Environment and Ecosystem part' and 'Space of Production and Consumption part' from the cognitive process aspect, which showed relatively low content validity compared to other areas. The results of this study suggest that the achievement standards should be reflected on the Korean geography CSAT questions and it should not be focused on evaluating the learner's analysing ability.

This paper deals with the deepening global competition of talent between regions as well as states in the process of globalization and the transition toward knowledge-base economies. This study figures out the global geography of talent by examining the distribution and spatial changes of the talent at the global scale. It also analyzes key policies and mechanisms by investigating various countries' policies to attract global talents. Finally this paper points out the limitation of current city-regional development strategies for global competition in that it lacks the consideration of the importance of the talent. In response to that, we propose the strategy to focus on the quality of place to attract the global talent for the city-region development.
