  • Design of a new information technology curriculum is very difficult work. It has relatively short history of operation. It advances very fast. Furthermore, people have very different understandings between information application and information knowledge. Therefore making decision for information technology contents is very difficult work. So we try to get effectiveness of the curriculum design through the comparison with other countries' cases. In this paper we tried to search and analyze about the historical trends, current states, and characteristics of Chinese information technology curriculum. China has strong focus on information technology education while she makes great success in economic development. We also suggested some good points of Chinese information technology curriculum which can be adapted to the design of a new Korean computer curriculum. The China's information technology curriculum is summarized by four categories. They are (1) educations on the basic knowledges and functions of the stable level of information technology, (2) educations on the information technology applications for the problem solving, (3) educations for the individualized learning through the research and project implementations in depth, and (4) systematic arrangements and integrated operations of the information technology curriculum.

  • This article describes the current status of site-based environmental education (EE) in the Republic of Korea. Implications for site-based EE program development and operation are presented and recommendations for an improvement are provided. Questionnaires were mailed to 205 schools and organizations where site-based EE programs operated in 2002 with funding from the Korean Ministry of Environment. The questionnaire was designed and used to examine the scope, operation, and needs of site-based EE programs. The response rate was 27.3%. The results of the survey indicated that 'awareness', 'participation', and 'attitude' were addressed by the program goals and objectives more than 'knowledge' and 'skills'. The survey also indicated that activities in the programs were not variable and most were teacher/instructor-centered. Most of the programs reflected the 'connection with everyday life, direct experience and sensitivity'. There were some difficulties in motivating students and finding a good location and qualified instructional staff. Needs included well-designed program development and dissemination, professional development, increased funding support, and more effective program evaluation.

  • The energy storage system(ESS) is a core component for exchanging the power system structure of the unidirectional power flow into a bidirectional structure. Its important role has been increasing because it has multiple functions such as output stabilization of new renewable energy, demand management, frequency regulation, etc. However, the performance evaluation technology of ESS in korea is lower than one of advanced countries and the recognition of standardization is also lack compared to advanced countries. Furthermore, in order to more accurately and reliably validate the performance of the ESS in advanced countries, it has been required to perform not only performance testing by H/W devices but also performance verification by S/W tool. Therefore, in order to verify the performance testing of ESS by S/W tool, this paper proposes the modeling method of performance testing devices for MW scaled ESS by using the PSCAD/EMTDC S/W, based on real testing devices in domestic institute. From the simulation results of proposed modeling method, it is confirmed that the proposed modeling method is a useful tool for performance validation of ESS.

  • European integration processes have acted as a catalyst for the emergence of a new type of educational environment, which is characterized by competent flexibility of specialists. Therefore, the article focuses on professional training of teachers in the context of European integration processes using information technology and the search for innovative methods of training specialists. One of the educational priorities in Europe is to create a new model of a teacher who has an academic education, knows innovative methods, is able to perform functions and tasks efficiently and professionally, adequately, quickly and correctly respond to changes and innovations. The tasks facing education in the European dimension are formulated. The main trends in the education of teachers in modern Europe are described: the need to deepen and expand subject training programs in pedagogical institutions of Higher Education, which will allow autonomy of activity, awareness of responsibility for independent creative decisions, create favorable conditions for the development of professionalism through the use of Information Technology and the search for innovative methods of training specialists. At the present stage, various models of teacher training are being developed based on the University and practical concept using information technology and searching for innovative methods of training specialists. On this basis, two different theories of perception of teacher education were formed: as preparation of teachers for work throughout their professional career; as preparation for the first years of professional work, which is periodically repeated in the process of continuous professional training and improvement. Among the advantages that the use of Information Technology and the search for innovative methods of training specialists to implement the learning process, it is worth mentioning the following: simultaneous use of several channels of perception of the student or student in the learning process, thanks to which the integration of information processed by different sensory organs is achieved; the ability to simulate complex real experiments; visualization of abstract information by dynamic representation of processes, etc.

  • First, we have reviewed the concepts of technology as tools, artefacts, and instruments and then introduced constructivism, mathematical communication, and anthropological views on the technology as instruments. Next, this study has supported the anthropological studies considering the facts that learners develop instrumented schemes in the interactions among learners, tools, and mathematical knowledge, and has discussed the change of paradigm. Finally, we have argued that curriculum, epistemology, and relevant studies should be changed to the new paradigm, and then we have discussed that the change of paradigm should be established on the nature, the purpose, the contents, and the assessment in mathematics learning and the role of teachers.
