The Purpose of this study is to analyze the contribution of the total human capital formation to economic growth in Korea. In order to assess the contribution of the total human capital formation to economic growth, aggregate production functions are estimated using two ways of ordinary least squares and polynomial distributed lags based on 1955 - 1988 time series data in Korea. The total amount of investment in human capital is calculated by adding each amount of investment in formal education, vocational training, inter-provincial migration, and health in pecuniary terms. The findings of this study could be summarized as follows ; (1) If we enumerate the variables in good order according to the importance, we get the following ; namely, total number of labor force, inter-provincial migration, vocational training, health, physical capital, and formal education. (2) The contribution of the human capital to economic growth is much more larger than that of physical capital. In particular, it appears that inter-provincial migration and vocational training make a great contribution to economic growth. (3) It appears that investment in formal education has a continuous effect for fifteen years and maximum effect is observed approximately eight years later. In the case of vocational training, the effect of investment lasts for about 12-14 years and its effect on economic growth reaches maximum with the passage of seven to eight years after initial investment. (4) Investment in vocational training contributes more in the long run compared with investment in formal education. The effect of investment in formal education lasts longer than that of vocational training, while the effect of investment in vocational training is considerably larger in the short run compared with the investment in formal education.

본 연구는 한국에서의 대학교육이 경제 사회적 수익성 관점에서 얼마나 많은 긍정적인 파급효과를 가지고 있는지를 1971~2017년 기간의 자료를 이용하여 분석하였다. 첫 번째로 대졸자 수와 비대졸자수 비율 즉 비대졸자수 1인당 대졸자 수가 비대졸자의 월평균임금에 미치는 형향을 추정하였다. 추정된 계수는 0.433으로 95%의 신뢰수준에서 통계적으로 유의미한 결과를 보였다. 이 같은 결과는 대학교육의 비대졸 출신자들의 소득을 증대시켜 간접적으로 국민경제에 긍정적인 파급효과를 미치고 있음을 보여준다고 하겠다. 두 번째로 비대졸자 1인당 자본량이 월평균임금에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 계수는 0.45646으로 약 99%의 신뢰수준에서 통계적 유의성을 보이고 있음에 따라 1%의 비대졸자 1인당 자본량 증가는 비대졸자 1인당 월평균임금은 약 0.45646% 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 선행연구와 유사하게 지난 40여 년간 한국에서의 대학교육은 국민경제에 긍정적인 파급효과를 준 것으로 보여진다. 끝으로 또 다른 파급효과를 추정하기 위하여 대졸 1인당 특허등록수를 독립변수로 추가하였으나 한 기간 외는 통계적으로 유의성이 증명되지 못하였다.

우리나라의 공적개발원조는 큰 성장을 보이고 있으며, 특히 직업훈련학교에 대한 지원은 그 효익이 직접적이고 단기적으로 발생되게 되어서 수원국에 큰 효익을 안겨준 것으로 평가되고 있다. 그러나 공적개발원조에 대한 경제적 성과를 측정할 수 있는 모형이 없어서 단편적인 성과 측정에 머무르고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 개도국 직업훈련학교에 대한 공적개발원조 시 적용가능한 경제적 성과측정모형을 개발하고자 하는 것이며, 이를 위하여 재무정보를 중심으로 하는 ROI모형을 설정하고 여기에 비재무정보를 중심으로 하는 BSC를 접목하였다. 직업훈련학교는 그 효익의 대상이 명확하고 효익이 교육생의 졸업과 동시에 발생되는 특징이 있으므로, 비재무정보 보다는 재무정보 중심으로 모형을 구셩하는 것이 보다 목적적합하다고 사료된다.

This study discusses the effect of human capital and technology on economic growth in Indonesia using annual time series data over the 35-year research period (1984-2019). This study uses an autoregressive distribution gap to the cointegration approach to understanding the relationship between human capital, technology, and economic growth. Human capital is inherent in humans and becomes capital in providing the best performance that has an impact on their own income. We use the human capital framework in this study where education is one mechanism to increase human capital. Based on the results of our estimation, we find that the increase in human capital using the education mechanism affects economic growth. This shows the role of human capital investment is very important in economic growth. Technology shows a significant positive effect on economic growth. Increasing human resources and technology are important factors in efforts to increase economic growth in Indonesia. Educational development is the key to the success of increasing human capital and technological development because education plays a role in improving the quality of human resources. Increasing human resources here is in the form of increased knowledge, mastery of technology, innovation, and the ability to develop technology to encourage technology development.

The size of the government is one of the most fundamental debates of open economies. In any economy, government plays an important role, but a pertinent level of economic prosperity has never been obtained in history without government. Therefore, the objective of this paper investigates the association of government size, economic volatility, and institutional quality for 182 economies from the time period 1996-2016 is collected from the World Bank database. GE is defined as the General government's final consumption expenditure. Health expenditure is represented by HE. Government expenditure on education is denoted by EDUEXP. The economic volatility is measured by the rolling standard deviation of GDP per capita growth rate, Population growth, Trade openness, GINI represented Gini index which measures the degree to which the income distributed or consumption expenses among citizens deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. The results proposed that economic volatility has a significant effect on government size and institutional qualities. Moreover, the paper extends the investigation by finding the link between economic volatility with government health and education expenditure separately. The policy implication drawn from this analysis is that controlling economic volatility may reduce the size of government and also significantly affect health and education expenditures.

The purpose of this study is to examine current situations about and factors related to expenditures of private education among pre-school children and to provide policy implications useful for future pre-school children education. The subjects of the study were parents of pre-school children under seven years of age, who lived in Seoul and Incheon area. The survey was conducted using parent questionnaire. The major findings of the study are: First, 86.8% of parents of pre-school children use private education and the average expenditure on it was 154, 446 won. Second, major factors determining their private education expenditure are educational level of parents, parents' job characteristics, household income, and region. Third, the most important reason for using private education among parents is to improve and excel in academic performance of their children. Forth, the higher the parents' expected returns from private education are, the higher the expenditure level of private education is. Fitth, the results of the logistic regressions showed that parents' attitudes toward private education was the most important factor in determining household economic burden associated with private education. The odds were 5 times greater for the parent group with strong desire for private education than for the parent group without it and 1.2 times greater for the parent group with high-expected returns from private education than the parent group without it. In conclusion, systematic, universal educational policies need to be developed to provide and support all the parents with pre-school children, given that their current economic burden is substantial. By providing such support, we can help parents focus on public education. This study examining current situations about and determining factors related to private education expenditures among pre-school children collected data limiting only Seoul and Inchoen area, therefore, future studies need to include data collected nationwide for generalizability of the findings. As well, development of more elaborated survey instruments and analytical methods would advance our understanding in the field.

유럽의 통합은 1991년 12월 마스트리히트에서 유럽연합조약을 처음 체결하면서 시작되었다. 근대 민족 국가의 요람이라고 할 수 있는 유럽은 현재 각국들의 사회경제적 통합은 물론 정치적 분야에서도 단일 유럽을 실현해 왔다. 이러한 가운데 유럽연합의 새로운 통합성장동력을 개발하기 위한 평생교육정책은 무엇보다도 사회경제적 환경 변화에 대비 할 수 있는 교육적 대응이 필요하다고 보고 있다. 특히 평생교육분야의 협력과 통합발전에 있어서는 다양성과 상호 조절을 통한 효율성의 조화를 이루어야 하는 중요한 과제를 안고 있다고 본다. 그러나 그들의 노력에도 불구하고 2008년 이후 유럽연합의 몇몇 국가들은 경제 침체로 인하여 국가재정의 위기를 맞이하였으며, 급기야 유럽전체의 재정위기로 까지 영향을 미치고 있다. 이와 같은 위기는 현재 유럽연합의 사회경제적 통합을 흔들고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유럽연합의 사회경제적 통합을 위한 평생교육 체제구축 및 정책 추진 현황을 살펴보고, 유럽연합에 속한 국가들 간의 성인평생교육 참여율이 1인당 국민소득과 어떠한 관련성이 있는지 분석하고자 하였다. 그리고 유럽연합의 경제위기 속에서 회원국 간의 사회경제적 통합이 지속 가능할 수 있을지를 통합적 평생교육체제의 문제점을 중심으로 알아보았다. 또한 이를 통하여 우리나라 평생교육의 새로운 패러다임 전환과 정책 수립 및 발전 방향 제시에 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다.

It is recent that STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education emerged as a great concern of the U.S. policy makers in terms of securing national and regional competitiveness. However, few attempts to embrace STEM education as a source for sustainable regional growth have been made mainly due to methodological challenges. This paper investigates the role of STEM education in achieving sustainable economic growth. For the purpose of the paper, a U.S. federal workforce development program named Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development (WIRED) in Southeastern Virginia that was implemented between 2007 and 2010 is selected and evaluated qualitatively. By identifying three themes as a result of three-stage coding methods, the evaluation results call for particular attention of local policy makers and key stakeholders to STEM education as a source of sustainable long-term economic growth in regions.

This research was performed for examining the differences of experience of sex education and the awareness of sexual abuse according to child's sex and economic background. Also the differences of sex knowledge and sexual consciousness were analyzed according to child's sex, economic background and sex education. Subjects were 425 children from two elementary schools and 10 community child centers in H city, Gyeonggi-do. The results were as follows. First, more girls thought the desirable place for sex education was home and more girls consulted sexual problems with their parents. Children from low economic backgrounds experienced sex education at school and community child centers rather than at home. Second, both boys and girls replied that sexual abuse was due to the attacker's fault but more girls than boys attributed the fault to themselves. Third, girls' sex knowledge grade was higher than boys. Fourth, boys showed a more open attitude toward heterosexual dating, and children with a low economic background showed a higher sex drive. Fifth, a high sex drive was related to low sexual knowledge, openness in dating and high sexual ethics.
