The purpose of this study was to investigate the implicit knowledge of creativity and education practice of creativity perceived by undergraduate students. Participants were 425 undergraduate students from around the greater metropolitan area of Seoul. The results of this study were as follows: (1) Most undergraduate students considered creativity as creative thinking or creative product rather than creative personality and creative environment. Undergraduate students placed originality as the most important subfactor of creativity. Scientists were ranked as the most creative people, followed by executives, and then artists. Interestingly contemporary Korean undergraduate students recognized and evaluated creativity as positive. (2) Most undergraduate students recognized the needs and importance of creativity-fostered education. These aspects of education have meaningful differences according to gender, as female students viewed creativity-fostered education more important. (3) Undergraduate students considered creative persons to be imaginative, independent, and confident. The most important part of developing undergraduate students' creativity was to make more creative environments. It has been suggested that the benefit of creative environments should be taken into consideration when developing creativity-enhancing programs and education for undergraduate students more generally.

The purpose of this study was to test the reliability and validity of the Infant Montessori Performance Assessment Scales developed by the authors. Subjects of the study consisted of 132 Montessori teachers and 50 infants who were attending Montessori home school throughout the whole country, using census method. Infant's age ranged from 6 to 24 months. Data were analysed by using SAS 8.2 PC program. Statistical methods employed were frequency, Cronbach's alpha, Kappa coefficient, test-retest correlation, construct validity, and concurrent validity. The Cronbach's alpha of 6 sub-scales included physical, creativity, practical life, sense, language, and cognitive education, which ranged from .70 to .86. And the! correlation of the test/re-test was .72. The correlation between the 6 sub-scales of Infant-Montessori Performance Assessment Scales and the total scores of 6 items ranged from .06 to .84. Therefore, the construct validity of Infant Montessori Performance Assessment Scales was verified. The Kappa coefficient of inter-rater reliability was .76. The correlation between the Infant Montessori Performance Assessment Scales and the Standardized Korean Creativity Traits Checklist(K-CTC) and the Korean Child Social Maturity Scales showed non-significant levels of .16 and .12 respectively. Conclusively, Infant Montessori Performance Assessment Scales developed by the authors were verified through the above reliability and validity tests. Specifically the Infant Montessori Performance Assessment Scales showed the relationship of the convergent and divergent validity with the Korean Child Social Maturity Scales and the Standardized Korean Creativity Traits Checklist, respectively.

The main purpose of this study was to examine the effects of drama activities using children's literature on the improvement of young children's creativity. To answer this research question, 2 groups, an experimental group composed of 18 five-year-old children who attend "J public Kindergarten," and a control group composed of 18 five-year-old children who attend "H public Kindergarten," were organized. Both kindergartens were located in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do. The experimental group participated in drama activities twice a week; 16 times for 8 weeks. In this study, the change in children's creativity was measured by conducting a pre-test and a post-test developed by Chun(2000). The results after 8 weeks of experimentation indicate that the drama activities using children's literature had a positive effect on promoting children's creativity. Comparing the scores of the pre-test and the post-test, it was obvious that the experimental group's creativity had been improved. The experimental group's creativity including the sub-elements of the test such as fluency, flexibility, uniqueness, and imagination, was improved more than that of the controlled group.

The study investigated cognitive and creative characteristics related to creative problem solving of intellectually gifted and average children. Fourth and 6th graders from elementary schools in I and B cities and gifted classes in K and I cities were administered the KEDI group IQ test and categorized into gifted(above IQ 125) and average(IQ 90-109) groups. A total of 371 children were selected through this procedure and were tested on formal operational tasks, general metacognitive knowledge, creativity characteristics scales, and creative problem solving tasks. Gifted children were superior to average children on all cognitive and creativity characteristics. For the gifted, grade and metacognition were significant predictors of creative problem solving in the verbal area, and all cognitive and creativity characteristics were significant predictors in the math area. For the average children, grade and metacognition were significant predictors of creative problem solving in the verbal area, and only grade was a significant predictor in the math area.

This study was conducted in order to develop an aptitude test for child care teachers (ATCCT) and to analyze it in terms of both validity and reliability. The main participants in this study consisted of 710 pre-service child care teachers. The results of factor analysis identified 7 factors and 56 items which were selected from 121 items in the original scale. The seven factors were as follows; interpersonal relationship management abilities, receptiveness and responsiveness to children, creativity and personal development, the ability to form close relationships with children, the ability to supervise child safety, the sense of duty, and positive emotions. The four factors were related to social relationship. Criterion-related validity was established by using correlations between the ATCCT and the TSES (Teacher Self-efficacy Scale). The internal consistency was found to be relatively high (Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ = .94) and test-retest reliability was also established (r = .53). In addition, there were differences among pre-service child care teacher groups according to both relative levels of education and courses taught.
