There is a growing interest in computer based learning system that can learn a new concept of epistemic frames in response to the demands of $21^{st}$ century Skills. However, there is little research on the theoretical models for the epistemic frames applicable in the changing educational environment and the measurement theories (Psychometric theory, Learning Analytics) that can be evaluated. Therefore, in this study, we propose the core elements of the learning system prototype that can educate the epistemic frames in the practical community. Furthermore, this study explores and suggests an appropriate psychometric measurement theory (learning analytics) that allows us to measure, infer, and evaluate a learner.

Recently, it becomes important for container ports to gain competitiveness through service differentiation strategies. These strategies require an objective evaluation on consumer needs. For that reason, this study aims at developing the scale and measurement methods for service quality. Container shipping companies calling at Busan are targeted for the empirical analyses. The measurement items are presented for the services that they are provided from entry into a port to departure from a port. Exploratory factor analysis and validity analysis are done to derive a service quality scale from entry to departure. The result of regression analysis implies that the service quality scale is useful to increase customer satisfaction and to establish managerial strategies.

Surface Image Velocity (SIV) is a technique which measures the surface velocity of river by using the principle of Paticle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The technique is economical and efficient way to measure velocity in rivers. The present paper aims to apply the technique to three rivers in Korea. It uses pairs of river surface images taken with two digital-cameras and reference points and cross section data which were acquired through plane survey. The performance of SIV was verified with automatic cart on an experimental flume. The test revealed that average error was less than 10 %, which assures that SIV can be used to measure velocity accurately. When it was applied to rivers with low water levels or rough weather condition, however, it showed the error about 20 %. If the problems of SIV technique are settled down, it can be one of the most convenient and economical ways to measure water discharge anytime and anywhere. And then it would be helpful to river management as developing a real-time river information system.

Traditionally in IS studies, the relationship between construct and its measurement items tends to be assumed to be reflective, meaning that the measurements are a reflection of the construct. In reality, however, the nature of the construct can be often formative, which means that its measurement items describe and define the construct rather than vice versa. The purpose of this study was to investigate theoretical and empirically-analysed differences between formative construct and reflective construct through comprehensive interdisciplinary literature review. And then on the basis of these differences, we intended to derive the rule of specifying whether the construct is formative or reflective and propose the methodology of testing the validity(content validity, construct validity, internal consistency and external construct) of formative construct and its measurements, differentiated from that in the case of reflective construct. Also, we suggested the concrete statistical testing methods such as VTT(Vanishing Tetrad Test), MIMIC(Multiple Indicators and Multiple Causes) test and multi-collinearity test. In order to examine the applicability of this methodology to developing the constructs for performance evaluation of IS(Information Systems), we tried to identify its attribute(formative or reflective) and test the validity for the construct arbitrarily chosen among them which had been derived in our previous IS performance evaluation study by using this methodology. The result of the examination was that the methodology proposed in this study was significantly valid and effective in the area of IS performance evaluation.

According to the Para. 5 of Art 2 of the Korean Nuclear Safety Regulations, which was revised in 1999, internal dose assessment as well as external one should be performed by law for employees at a nuclear power plant from 2003, and their estimate errors should also be within 50%. Thus, more accurate internal dosimetry becomes important. Corresponding to such regulation revision, we are developing a more accurate thyroid-uptake internal dosimetric system and have developed a Monte Carlo simulation code, the so-called CALEFF, to calculate the detection efficiency of the dosimetric system. In this paper, we calculated detection efficiencies with various test conditions by using the CALEFF code and discussed their characteristics. We may use the detection efficiency calculated by the code in calibrating the thyroid internal dose from measured data.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of head scatter factor (S_c) by applying a developed multi-leaf collimator (MLC) scatter source model for an unflattened photon beam. Methods: Sets of S_c values were measured for various jaw-defined square and rectangular fields and MLC-defined square fields for developing dual-source model (DSM) and MLC scatter model. A 6 MV unflattened photon beam has been used. Measurements were performed using a 0.125 cm³ cylindrical ionization chamber and a mini phantom. Then, the parameters of both models have been optimized, and S_c has been calculated. The DSM and MLC scatter models have been verified by comparing the calculated values to the three S_c set measurement values of the jaw-defined field and the two S_c set measurement values of MLC-defined fields used in the existing modeling, respectively. Results: For jaw-defined fields, the calculated S_c using the DSM was consistent with the measured S_c value. This demonstrates that the DSM was properly optimized and modeled for the measured values. For the MLC-defined fields, the accuracy between the calculated and measured S_c values with the addition of the MLC scatter source appeared to be high, but the only use of the DSM resulted in a significantly bigger differences. Conclusions: Both the DSM and MLC models could also be applied to an unflattened beam. When considering scattered radiation from the MLC by adding an MLC scatter source model, it showed a higher degree of agreement with the actual measured S_c value than when using only DSM in the same way as in previous studies.

As practicalization and commercialization of the technologies invented from the national R&D(Research & Development) project has been emerging as an important issue, the need for a tool for R&D project management has been increased. Technology Readiness Levels model(TRL) has currently been used for R&D project management because it provides distinctive definition of the nine levels in the progress of technology development starting from the basic research level to the utilization level. However, it is difficult to adopt the model for a large-scale national R&D project in which multiple research projects are involved simultaneously. In addition, TRL demands evaluation of research projects done by relevant experts and offers no specific measures determining the level of technology development. This study uses Delphi method to develop the measurement system helping to determine technology readiness levels for the technologies invented in a large scale national R&D project. The proposed model includes definition and measurement scles for each level in TRL.
