The purpose of this paper is to examine the competence and the methods of problem solving in four operations word problems based on the informal knowledges by five-year-old children. The numbers which are contained in problems consist of the numbers bigger than 5 and smaller than 10. The subjects were 21 five-year-old children who didn't learn four operations. The interview with observation was used in this research. Researcher gave the various materials to children and permitted to use them for problem solving. And researcher read the word problems to children and children solved the problems. The results are as follows: five-year-old children have the competence of problem solving in four operations word problems. They used mental computation or counting all materials strategy in addition problem. The methods of problem solving were similar to that of addition in subtraction, multiplication and division, but the rate of success was different. Children performed poor1y in division word problems. According to this research, we know that kindergarten educators should be interested in children's informal knowledges of four operations including shapes, patterns, statistics and probability. For this, it is needed to developed the curriculum and programs for informal mathematical experiences.

University Students go through the development process of expertise in a single field based on theoretical knowledge they have learned in the university. Their plans to develop their careers could lead to a shift in business as they choose to find jobs and start businesses throughout their lives. The attitude of career decision making process has been changed from learning in the form of receiving and memorizing existing knowledge to learning in a more proactive and autonomous manner, and there is a growing need for informal learning. In this study, the informal learning is investigated to clarify the impact on the employment competency and entrepreneurial intention. New implications are deduced by the introduction of start-up business to the traditional approach based on the employment ability. In addition, the importance of team-work has been increased in the field of eduction and business. The impact on the employment competency and entrepreneurial intention is studied based on the satisfaction level of team-based learning. Survey was conducted on 163 university students in North Chungcheong Province from March to June 2019 and the results of the study were summarized as follows. First, it has been confirmed that the informal learning of university students has a significant impact on their employment competency, but not on their entrepreneurial intention. Second, the employment competencies have perfect mediating effect on the informal learning and the entrepreneurial intention. Third, the satisfaction on the team-based learning did not have a significant impact on the employment competency of university students by informal learning, but it had a positive effect on the dependency between employment competency and entrepreneurial intention. In these days, start-up education at universities has been strengthened. Throughout this research, the need for informal learning is confirmed to enhance the employment competency and entrepreneurial intention of the university education program. In addition, team-based learning is introduced actively to utilize a variety of information from the university students.

In the anaerobe identification, when we develop the clinical decision support system for department of laboratory medicine, we must consider expression of an incomplete knowledge structure and addition of an evolving knowledge based on an expert's informal and heuristic knowledge is very complicated work flow. In the present study, we developed the system for anaerobe identification to advise on identification of unknown bacillus using knowledge base and inference engine. In the future, we are planning to develop the clinical decision support system for the whole bacteria not only an anaerobe but also aerobe to offer an expert's static and dynamic knowledge.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the elementary students' mathematical thinking, which is found during mathematical problem solving processes based on mathematical knowledge, heuristics, control, and mathematical disposition. The participants were 8 fifth grade elementary students in Seoul. A qualitative case study was used for investigating the students' mathematical thinking. The data were coded according to the four components of the students' mathematical thinking. The results of the analyses concerning mathematical thinking of the elementary students were as follows: First, in terms of mathematical knowledge, the elementary students frequently used conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge and informal knowledge during problem solving processes. Second, students tended not to find new heuristics or apply new one, but they only used the heuristics acquired from the experiences of the class and prior experiences. Third, control was found while students were solving problems. Last, mathematical disposition influenced on the mathematical problem solving processes. Teachers need to in-depth observations on the problem solving processes of students, which leads to teachers'effective assistance on facilitating students' problem solving skills.

Nowadays, the wide spectrum of changes have been occurred in library world. It is essential for librarians to improve their professionalization standards to convert these changes into the o n.0, pportunity of growth. The device of improvement of professionalization standards is following: 1. Librarians have to receive formal and informal education and learn to advance in knowledge and skill concerning library affairs continually. 2. Self learning has to be transform into learning organization. 3. Education of Librarianship concentrate mainly in practical and technical study by this time but it is indispensable to develop the theory and philosophy of librarianship.

Recently there are many researches of text mining to find interesting patterns or association rules from mass textual documents. However, the words extracted from informal documents are tend to be irregular and there are too many general words, so if we use pre-exist method, we would have difficulty in retrieving knowledge information effectively. In this paper, we propose a new feature extraction method to classify mass documents using association rule based on unsupervised learning technique. In experiment, we show the efficiency of suggested method by extracting features and classifying of documents.

The structure chosen to govern knowledge transfer in Inter Organizational Relationship(IOR) is often argued to be critical to the success of IOR. However, little research is done on the effective governance structure for knowledge transfer in global Business Process Outsourcing(BPO). The objective of this study is to explore the effective governance structure for knowledge transfer in IT intensive global BPO. Ground theory building methodology is used for this study. First, a generic framework on governance structure for knowledge transfer is derived from extant literature. The framework consists of potentially important constructs to study the governance mechanism for knowledge transfer. For the governance mechanism, this study focused on hierarchy/market structure, formal/informal control mechanisms and information systems. For knowledge type, the study focuses on sensitive knowledge, codifiable knowledge and non codifiable knowledge. This framework is applied to case analyses of two firms to explore effective governance mechanism to transfer each type of knowledge. As results of this study, pertinent propositions for future academic inquiry are derived.

This paper assesses the role of informal institutions in determining risk preference among smallholders in Tigray, Ethiopia. We use data from a household survey conducted by the Institute of Poverty Alleviation and International Development (IPAID). We find that households which participate in Debo, an informal labor-sharing institution, or have a friend from whom they can receive help are less likely to be risk-averse. However, participation in Iddir, a traditional form of insurance, is not significantly associated with risk preference. Hence, the existence of social institutions that provide assistance and social connections through reciprocity may be affording security against risk beyond that brought by more monetary forms of insurance. Given the importance of risk attitude in mediating the adoption of improved agricultural production, a policy suggestion is to provide selected aid to households which are less risk-averse agricultural investors. Also, Debo as a labor-sharing institution may serve as a nexus for managing aid and knowledge sharing.
