This study analyzed various machine learning models that predict employment outcomes after vocational training using pre-assessment data of disabled vocational trainees. The study selected and utilized the most appropriate machine learning models based on a data set containing various personal characteristics, including trainees' gender, age, and type of disability. Through this analysis, the goal is to improve the employment rate and job satisfaction of disabled trainees using only pre-assessment data. As a result, it presents a universal approach that can be applied not only to people with disabilities, but also to vocational trainees from a variety of backgrounds. This is expected to make an important contribution to the development and implementation of tailored vocational training programs, ultimately helping to achieve better employment outcomes and job satisfaction.

The CanSat was designed as an educational satellite simulation program that implements the overall system of the satellite such as the command processing unit, the communication unit, and the power unit in a structure of the size of a can. In particular, the training effect is very excellent because the trainee can learn a process similar to the actual satellite development process by designing, manufacturing, testing, and launching. Republic of Korea Air Force Academy has been using the CanSat production kit used by the domestic can satellite contest experience department for education, but since it was produced based on PCB, it was impossible to show creativity and operation was restricted even with small mistakes. In this paper, we analyze the existing CanSat kit and propose a new educational CanSat kit that can be used in creative engineering design and practice subjects that will be reorganized into a regular course from 2021, and a lesson plan. In conclusion, by using the proposed CanSat kit for lectures, it is possible to achieve educational purposes and effects, improve lecture satisfaction, and provide stable instruction.

Virtual reality is a combination of various studies, such as programming, simulation, and computer graphics. This type of new cultural paradigm requires novel concept of contents development and information exchange. This research uses 3D virtual reality technology in new equipment called I-Bench Mobile which let user to interact with the equipment for completing furniture disposition task. The simulation is manufactured in 3D with application of physics, and the ultimate goal of it is to increase customers' satisfaction by allowing them to enjoy snap shot function for arranging furniture at exact desired place. This research requires not only coding techniques but also educating process in both engineering and art, such as computer science, media art design, and visual communication; therefore, the development of software by facilitating Virtual/Augmented Reality technology in this research is a good example of fusion IT technique education.

With the advance of the Internet and computing technologies, e-learning is now a hot issue worldwide for providing the effective learning on the cyber-space. However, most of existing e-learning contents have been developed mainly based on text, including simple multimedia elements such as images, animations, and voices. This paper suggests a method effective for the computer programming e-learning. The method is based on program visualization using flowcharts. It features the stepwise hierarchical program visualization on the level of statements, the flowchart based visualization for control constructs of languages, visualization over whole programs, visualization compared with source codes, and interaction with users. Finally, we implement a system to realize the suggested method, and execute it for an example program.

Commonly it is perceived that it is difficult to teach engineering design and satisfy accreditation criteria in computer science and engineering related majors. However, since engineering design in these disciplines are a product design, it is more adaptable than other majors which are process design oriented. This paper shows that although there are subtle differences with conventional engineering design, engineering design education in computer science and engineering can be effectively done. This paper concentrates on how engineering design related curriculum can be constructed, what should be considered when designing such curriculum, and how engineering design can be taught in individual design courses(excluding introductory and capstone courses) based on case experience.

문항은 지필평가의 핵심요소이다. 문항의 표현은 전통적으로 문항카드를 이용했다. 교육정보화가 발달하면서 온라인 평가 서비스는 다양한 문항의 표현 구조를 만들었으나, 새롭게 주목받고 있는 스마트 러닝 환경에 그대로 사용하기에는 한계가 있다. 이 논문은 국내의 평가 특성과 스마트 러닝의 이동성을 고려한 문항 표현 구조를 제안한다.

An educator may utilize various pedagogies such as hands-on practice, practicum, and project-based learning to enhance a student's competency. Among various pedagogies, project-based learning is one of the well-known pedagogies that may provide similar on-the-job experience. In general, an educator may divide the students into small groups and assign tasks to check students' cooperation skills and achievements during project-based learning. However, an educator may experience difficulties operating project-based learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Most of the team activities are done in non-face-to-face meetings, and as a consequence, the educator may not find an underachieving team easily and cannot intervene appropriately. This study introduces a rigorous analysis method to evaluate team activities to analyze individual students' participation and contributions. First, this study develops evaluation rubrics by conducting questionnaires to professors and students to find an appropriate weight value for the evaluation scale. Then, this research introduces an analysis environment to evaluate students automatically. The analysis environment collects dialog data from social network services and measures interactions among students in a team. After measuring interactions, the environment generates a report to visualize the team activities. We applied the proposed method and environment to the capstone design course to show the effectiveness of the method and environment. Based on the case study, the environment showed that the analysis method could easily indicate the teams' activities and check the level of participation.

More and more universities are enforcing SW education for non-major undergraduates. However, they are experiencing difficulties in educating non-major students to understand computational thinking processes. In this paper, we did not use the mathematical operation problem to solve this problem. And we proposed a basic problem-solving process teaching method based on computational thinking using simple physical devices. In the proposed educational method, we teach a LED circuit using an Arduino board as an example. And it explains the problem-solving process with computational thinking. Through this, students learn core computational thinking processes such as abstraction, problem decomposition, pattern recognition and algorithms. By applying the proposed methodology, students can gain the concept and necessity of computational thinking processes without difficulty in understanding and analyzing the given problem.
