The purpose of this study is to suggest directions to improve engineering education and the assessment system of our country. For this object, the present situation of engineering education and assessment system in Korea have been reviewed and next, for those of study, the research papers and publications about the environment of college education are analyzed. Finally, an improved assessment system is suggested. It has already passed out for 6 years since execute the accreditation for engineering education in our country now, but essential point for step in accreditation for engineering education is how the evaluator can make the outcomes of studying. This is not a new terminology that is deformed according to special quality of college of engineering which prefer out-come based of study than process based of study to mean accomplishment in engineering education. The evaluation that estimate program is a skill, but an assessment method is not the meaning of individual student accomplishment also, it is the measure of validity estimation that should be estimate ability of students who complete program by proper authority. However, a new evaluation strategy that assess student outcome by person who consider the objectivity and validity, reliability should be develop for decision making of ABEEK. It is an original, private discussion for assessment strategy about the method for student learning outcomes assessment.

In a program that runs an engineering education certification, program outcomes refer to the knowledge, skills, and attitudes a student must have until graduation. In general, capstone design is used as a tool for evaluating program outcomes. This paper applies the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) to measure the raters' reliability in assessing program outcomes. Several raters evaluate program outcomes, and the result is used to obtain the raters' ICC. ICC measures the reliability of ratings or measurements for clusters - data that has been collected as groups or sorted into groups. If the ICC is close to 1, it means that the reliability among the raters is high. We evaluated the proposed method's usefulness through case analysis. As a method for assessing an evaluation tool's objectivity, multiple raters measure the same evaluation tool. As a result, we measured the ICC values for all POs, and analyzed the cause for the low measured POs. We applied this method to evaluate program outcomes of the Department of Computer Engineering in the past two years. As a result, we derived guidelines for improvement and program outcomes.

This paper presents a case study on the assessment of program outcomes using the capstone design course based on 16-year management experience and improvements of the school of mechanical design and automation engineering in the seoul national university of science and technology. First, the program outcomes related with the capstone design course are introduced, and the assessment methods and items are described. Based on them, the assessment results in 2008 were obtained and a strategy to improve the results were built after analyzation. As for the strategy, we revealed the assessment items and good examples in an internet web site in advance. As a result, we were able to obtain about 3.3% improved assessment results in 2009. Finally, the validity, efficiency, internal stability, and sustainability of the assessment of the program outcomes using the capstone design course are addressed in terms of a notion of the course-embedded assessment.

This study is a methodological research aimed at developing a program outcome assessment system for 'Utilization of Information and Communication Technology and the Latest Healthcare Technology' as required for nursing education accreditation. To ensure the theoretical validity of the assessment system, Kim's evaluation model (2009) and Zimmaro's rubric development stages (2004) were applied. The program outcome assessment system for information and communication and healthcare technology was developed, encompassing performance criteria, performance level, achievement goals, curriculum, evaluation methods, criteria, and the Close-the-Loop. The resulting assessment system is anticipated to be effectively utilized in nursing education, demonstrating broad applicability. This study is significant in providing specific directions for the development of program outcome assessment systems in undergraduate nursing programs. Further research is expected to evaluate and analyze program outcomes based on the applied assessment system.

The purpose of this study was to suggest possibility of adaptation of course-embedded assessment for program outcome in engineering education through literature review on concept, benefits, adaptation process, case study in higher education of course-embedded assessment. The model of course-embedded assessment was given with consideration for each step, that is, set up of program outcomes, check of related courses, selection of assessment tools, set up of performance criteria, implementation of course-embedded assessment, and analysis of results. Some prerequisites were given to set up course-embedded assessment successfully in engineering education field of Korea.

Engineering education accreditation addresses evaluation for program outcomes according to educational objectives and assessment process, which students are expected to obtain by the time of graduation in order to train international competitive engineers with continuous quality improvement in engineering programs. This paper shows a case study of a program outcomes assessment system including performance criteria, evaluation process, document system and continuous quality improvement process and an achievement evaluation by the assessment system for program outcomes in Information Security Program of Hoseo university.

Even though Accreditation Board of Engineering Education in Korea (ABEEK) started its accreditation procedures, the faculty still have difficulties in preparing the accreditation because there are little practical examples of the preparing procedure. This paper explains the practical procedure to determine the educational objectives and the outcomes, which is the first part of the accreditation preparing procedure. The educational objectives of the program should be expressed by the specific and assessable sentences and their contents should comply with the demands of the educational community, the objectives of the educational institute, and the characteristics of the program. The program outcomes consist of 12 outcomes from ABEEK and additional outcomes that reflect the characteristics of the program. Since the educational objectives and the outcomes should have the full connection among the objectives of the institute and the course objectives, the relationships among them should be checked using the relationship analysis matrix.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the assessment method for PO6(teamwork) and PO7(communication skill), one of the most important assessment items in engineering accreditation. In this paper, we used the assessment criteria of Rubric, to empirically measure the teamwork and communication skill. Teamwork and communication skill (PO6, PO7) are the most critical social competences in modern society. Numerous studies on education showed that teamwork and communication skill can be enhanced through learning. We, therefore, need to investigate teamwork and communication skill in terms of education. However, research on the assessment method of the engineering accreditation, based on educational view is scarce. In this study, we suggest the assessment criteria of Rubric for PO6 and PO7 with the perspective of the education. We also tried to apply the developed criteria to the related subjects.

1920년대 문을 연 서울특별시교육청 소속 공공도서관은 그저 시설과 장서를 갖추고 그야말로 가장 기본적인 서비스만 제공하였다. 그러다가 이용자수도 늘어나고 그들의 요구도 다양해지면서 독서교실을 비롯한 독서관련 프로그램을 운영하게 되었고, 현재는 독서는 물론 취미 교양, 인문학강좌 등 거의 모든 분야에 걸쳐 다양한 프로그램 및 행사를 진행하고 있다. 도서관 및 평생학습관의 프로그램은 기관마다 조금씩 차이는 있지만 대개 독서교실처럼 독서 관련 프로그램들이 주류를 이뤄 왔으나 평생교육프로그램(문화교실)이 기하급수적으로 늘어나면서 교양 취미생활까지 광범위하게 운영되고 있다. 또한 2000년대 중반부터 시작된 도서관 평가에 프로그램 및 행사가 많은 비중을 차지하면서 양적, 질적 성장을 보이고 있다. 여기서는 서울특별시교육청 소속 공공도서관 및 평생학습관의 변천 중 프로그램 및 행사 부문에 대하여 주요 내용과 특색, 성과 등을 대략적으로 살펴보면서 바람직한 방향을 모색해 보고자 한다.

이공계 위기론을 해결하기 위해 ABET주도로 시작된 공학교육인증은 우리나라에도 도입되었으며 성과중심교육을 기본철학으로 하는 공학교육인증에서 프로그램 학습성과의 평가는 매우 중요하다. ABEEK에서 강조하고 있는 교과기반평가(Course Embedded Assessment, 이하 CEA)는 그 유용성에도 불구하고 학습성과 연계와 코스 연계 등이 전산시스템으로 지원되지 않아 교육현장에서 잘 반영되지 않는 문제점이 있으며 이로 인해 인증을 위한 자체평가보고서 작성시 PD교수들의 어려움이 있다. 이에 운영자들의 의견을 반영하여 CEA평가 시스템을 구현하기 위한 사용자 권한 중심의 요구분석과 시스템 설계를 진행 하였다.
