  • This paper identifies GNSS education and training program under Geomatic field of study. GNSS education programs is evaluated $vis-{\grave{a}}-vis$ new-products. Data on Geomatic knowledge generation in the era of the GNSS derivatives over the 1975 - 2003 period are examined. The emerging trends and patterns; in particular for selected Asian nations will be dissected in detail. The knowledge indicator used in this study is the patent ownership against the background of emergence of new core technologies and innovations in the field of GNSS. Looking at the dismal performance of Geomatic professionals in terms of innovative activities in most part of Asian and Malaysia in particular, is it there is something that holding up these professionals from doing so? With our universities and numerous polytechnics offering Geomatic program, more is expected from them. Is it a problem of lack or inadequacy of skills? Or is it these professionals are too busy and being narrowly focused on doing something else?

  • Objective: Despite the recommendation of the use of high-fidelity simulation (HFS) in interprofessional education (IPE), there is little known about its work for nursing students. Thus, this study aimed to explore nurse educators' perceptions and experiences in developing and implementing the HFS-based IPE for nursing and medical students. Methods: This study used a case study, using reflective filed notes. Results: Nursing educators perceived HFS as an effective educational approach to engaging nursing and medical students actively in interprofessional collaborative practice (ICP) experiences and in evaluating their actual performance on it. In terms of their perspectives on the elements necessary for effective HFS-based IPE, four themes were identified: collaborative learning, co-facilitating debriefing, leadership commitment and active faculty involvement.

  • This study is for the analysis on the basic engineering education for enhancing the quality of engineers at a local engineering school. Negative appraisal for the engineering education by industry, the decrease on the number of students applying for the colleges of engineering, the changes on the high school education make the engineering schools forced to improve the basic engineering education. For the starting point for the study, we have surveyed on the current engineering education by asking questions to professors, students and alumni of Hongik College of Science and Technology. Analyzing the survey results and considering the needs by industry, we have set the basic educational philosophy as educating practical engineers and have decided the goals of basic engineering education as changing to student oriented education, enhancing the field adaptation capability, improving the problem solving ability and introducing engineering design courses.

  • Unlike in the past, where the expression of the form was given a priority, with the widening of the scopes of the designs, the proportion of design education institution curricula targeting user experience and the application of technology is continually and gradually increasing. Open source microcontroller boards such as Arduino have initiated attracting attention as a countermeasure against these changes. These prototyping tools have many advantages for the diversification of expression and design verification in the design field and therefore have a high likelihood of being introduced into many design education institutes; however, the tools act as high entry barriers for design students who lack engineering knowledge. Although various educational content and tools have been developed to address the issue of barrier, existing solutions remain insufficient as alternatives for the purpose of activation. In this study, we investigated the present state of related education content and conducted a pilot workshop using a prototype microcontroller board with simplified coding. We intend to use the results of this investigation to develop study material for design education. We started by conducting a survey regarding the pre-university education situation. It was observed that engineering education opportunities are insufficient and the problem of mutual application between educations due to course-based education was not realized. We also analyzed the characteristics of simplified training tools using the microcontroller to establish a direction for educational design and conducted a pilot workshop using the microcontroller toolkit with a simplified coding process based on this content. Students who lack a basic knowledge of engineering technology received instruction, and after completing minimum preliminary training, they proceeded to practical exercises that involved utilizing the toolkit. Through this process, we identified the need for a simple-type microcontroller board with low-complexity for use in educating students majoring in design. We also identified some obstacles that serve as barriers to entry of utilizing microcontroller board. Based on these results, we propose several functional requirements and teaching guidelines for prototyping toolkits for design education.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the applications and possibilities of major programs that provide services using artificial intelligence in mathematics education. For this study, related papers, reports, and materials were collected and analyzed, focusing on materials mostly published within the last five years. The researcher searched the keywords of "artificial intelligence", "artificial intelligence", "AI" and "mathematics education" independently or in combination. As a result of the study, artificial intelligence for mathematics education was mostly supporting learners' personalized mathematics learning, defining it as an auxiliary role to support human mathematics teachers, and upgrading the technology of not only cognitive aspects but also affective aspects. As suggestions, the researcher argued that followings are necessary: Research for the establishment of an elaborate artificial intelligence mathematical system, discovery of artificial intelligence technology for appropriate use to support mathematics education, development of high quality of mathematics contents for artificial intelligence, and the establishment and operation of a cloud-based comprehensive system for mathematics education. The researcher proposed that continuous research to effectively help students study mathematics using artificial intelligence including students' emotional or empathetic abilities, and collaborative learning, which is only possible in offline environments. Also, the researcher suggested that more sophisticated materials should be developed for designing mathematics teaching and learning by using artificial intelligence.

  • Educational applications of big data analysis have been of interest in order to improve learning effectiveness and efficiency. As a basic challenge for educational applications, the purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive data set scheme for learning analytics in the context of digital textbook usage within the K-12 school environments of Korea. On the basis of the literature review, the Start-up Mega Planning model of needs assessment methodology was used as this study sought to come up with negotiated solutions for different stakeholders for a national level of learning metrics framework. The Ministry of Education (MOE), Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (SMOE), and Korean Education and Research Information Service (KERIS) were involved in the discussion of the learning metrics framework scope. Finally, we suggest a proposal for the national learning metrics framework to reflect such considerations as dynamic education context and feasibility of the metrics into the K-12 Korean schools. The possibilities and limitations of the suggested framework for learning metrics are discussed and future areas of study are suggested.

  • This paper deals with single-phase unified power quality conditioner, which aims at the integration of series-active and shunt-active tilter. The series filter is used to compensate for the voltage distortions and the shunt filter is used to provide reactive power and counteract the harmonic current injected by the load. Also, the voltage of the DC link capacitor is controlled to a desired value by the shunt active filter. In order to verify the performance of the proposed conditioner, computer simulations using MATLAB/SIMULINK were demonstrated. The results confirm that the proposed conditioner shows excellent performance to eliminate the harmonics and voltage flickers generated at the singe-phase nonlinear load.
