Creativity is a fine ability among major values of human resource in knowledge-based society. The purpose of this study is to identify the components of the informatics creativity based on domain-specificity and confluence theory. To explore these components, a three-round, classical Delphi process was administered with an expert panel of 31 individuals. All members of the expert panel initially responded to open-ended questions, and the qualitative results were analyzed. The subsequent two rounds of the Delphi required quantitative responses in which the expert panel was asked to indicate the level of importance using a five point Likert scale associated with specific items. As a result of the Delphi survey, total of 32 items were selected as three core areas such as congnitive, affective and environmental components of informatics creativity.

As information dysfunctional phenomenon is causing a lot of social problems, the need and accountability about information ethics education at school have been strengthened. However, as the current school information ethics education is limited in some areas across curriculum and was carried out voluntarily based on the situation of school and teacher's discretion, the information ethics education was highly dependent on awareness and capabilities of teacher. In this study, once factors of professionalism of teachers responsible for information ethics reflecting the characteristics of information ethics education were derived from general teacher's professionalism, Delphi survey was conducted three times with targets of 32 experts. As a result, 10 elements of knowledge, 11 elements of performance-ability and 7 elements of personality-related were selected as professionalism of teachers responsible for information ethics.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of educational programming language(EPL) using the meta-analysis method. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, t-test and F-test were performed for the effect size differences between the variables. The results of the study were as follows: First, EPL turned out to be highly effective in improving learning effects. The total mean of effect size was as big as 1.01 and the value of $U_3$ was 84.38%. EPL increased the learning effect by 34.38% compared with the control group. Second, the moderator variables such as subject, publication type, and learner's school age there was no statistically significant differences. By designing the experiment nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design showed statistically significant effect size compared with single group pretest-posttest design. Third, the mean effect sizes of the dependent variables were as follows: Creativity 1.90, problem solving ability 1.25, logical thinking ability 1.18, learning motivation 0.81, and achievement 0.59. EPL showed positive effect than traditional teaching and learning method comprehensively.

The purpose of this study was to compare the composition of the government guidelines for the educational curriculum of Japan announced in 2016 with the outline of the 2015 revised educational curriculum of Korea. To compare the composition of the national level curricula of the two countries, the composition systems and content details were analyzed along with the trends of emphasis placed on informatics education. The analysis indicated that as for the Japanese government's guidelines, it was suggested that the causes of revisions, and purposes and methods of fulfilling goals be added, and thus the appropriateness of the guidelines was emphasized. As for Korea's revised curriculum, a gap caused by segmental development of the outline and details of the curriculum were found in addition to errors in curricular composition and direction setting which were carried out without consideration to the transition time required or changes of subjects. To ensure sufficiency of the curricular contents and education reflecting the situations of each time phase, the necessity to improve the overall curricular framework was suggested. This study holds significance as it provides the introspective insight that the goals and directions of education cannot be set properly when the curricular framework is established without recognition of the contents.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effectiveness of the flipped class by comparing Python programming classes divided into flipped class and general class. The participants who participated in each class had 36 students, so that they could participate in the class without knowing the difference of the class method. The students's academic achievement was applied the two groups with similar test items, and then the overall achievement were compared. The analysis showed that the achievements in flipped class in the basic grammar and intermediate grammar were higher than those in the general class. As a result of gender achievement analysis, there was no effect on the type of instruction. However, male student were generally higher in academic achievement. In conclusion, flipped class in the programming is a good way to improve students' understanding.

Police education has shown a pronounced improvement during three eras in American police history. as the Reform Era arrived, the police academy was invented. With it, citizen expectations for the police expanded, and the level of competence exhibited by police grew. After the 1960s came the invention of the FTO and the creation of ongoing, in-service training requirements. in recent years, academics in many places-but by no means everywhere-are taking a more collegial approach to training, aimed especially at COP- style policing and the achievement of genuine professionalism. The Korean police training system is less efficient in education methodology, more inappropriate in the switch system of school education and practice, and poorer in educational environment, among others. Based on my findings, this paper recommends several improvement tips. First, legal stipulations on police training should be integrated and detailed. Second, active participation by preliminary police officers should be emphasized in the class of police training. Third, contents and hours for practice should be emphasized to maximize effects of the "switch system." Fourth, the educational environment of the Academy should be improved.

This study conducted a survey on the perception for legal education efficiency of engineering department. This study is to search for more efficient legal education method to engineering department's students, reflecting the reality that our universities have appointed the subjects - related with engineering accreditation such as engineering law - as compulsory subjects. The method of this study is that with questionnaire extracted the advanced researches, it selected the 180 undergraduates of engineering college in C university as original samples, chose 161 data as final efficient samples except for 19 untrustworthy respondent, analyzed and drew the result. The specific results are as follows. In case of legal education in engineering department, it was found that women rather than men, the students first taking the subject more than those retaking the subject, the students who have taken the basic law subjects such as law and society, an introduction to law, and the students who hope to get a job in their major field showed the higher class concentration degree and satisfaction degree.

As the question patterns have been created in the point of a programer's view, the research for evaluating the internet learning material has been made with the primary consideration to the reliability of information and the plan of interface. Then, the convenience and usability of learners has not been regarded most. As this research is for realizing the recent problem and solving it, this research was made an effort to create the evaluation method for using it practically by teachers and students. In this research, when people design the class with using the Internet and students surf on the Internet for searching for learning materials, 80 items of evaluation standards for E-textbook on Web were prepared. Then, the result of this research will be used to evaluate E-textbooks being made indefinitely later. And Electronic textbook evaluated with the 80 items will be offered meaningful to students and teachers and help to increase the students' learning ability.

Recently, as more web-based applications are widely used, various methods for education are developed in practical areas. As a result, in many organizations, virtual educations such as WBI learning. CAI, and distance learning are offered actively. With the advantages of web-based education, in order to achieve feasible and efficient effects on education. a new web-based instruction model that considers the abilities, the interests, and the aptitudes of students individually is required. In this paper, a new web-based instruction model, called a hybrid model, is proposed and implemented. And then, two model - the stepwise model and the hybrid model- are applied to a computer accounting class of a vocational high school. Students attend the web-based class in a computer center for 100 minutes autonomously. After the classes, a questionnaire is made in order to analyze both the effect on that class and the learning fulfillment of the proposed instruction model.
