The purpose of this study was to reform the existing state of educational program for invention by TRIZ, theory of inventive problem solving. Major findings of the study were follows : First, students had a chance to get a inventive solution from the problem they were inventing. Second, the new educational program for invention was developed according to the procedures on the standpoint of pedagogy with the TRIZ. Third, according to the survey of the new educational program for invention has found that as follows: -Students were of help to know the invention, to be beneficial, but the basic concepts of TRIZ were not easy to them. -Student wished to advice their colleague the new program for invention, because they had chances to overcome a fixed idea, extend creativity and think. Fourth, TRIZ, the systematic method of problem solving for invention, provide students with the thinking method to overcome fixed ideas and the tool of knowledge.

Existing science education that excludes narrative thinking impedes the understanding of the context of workbook content. The object of this research is to develop a storytelling-learning program based on narrative thinking to elevate learners' interest in science and expand their inventive problem-solving abilities. Following an analysis of the current Korean curriculum, eight types of storytelling materials that utilize local content were developed for grades 7-9. The learning program used quest storytelling and was designed such that learning activities such as investigation, discussion, and experimentation were included in the process of solving each quest. Learners experienced an interest in storytelling learning resulting from participation in this storytelling-learning program. Moreover, learners demonstrated inventive problem-solving abilities in the process of completing the stories. During the process of assembling the storytelling materials, the students interacted with enthusiasm and generated ideas. The teachers indicated a positive feedback to the storytelling program as a new attempt to stimulate learners' interests. In the future, with continuous development and application, storytelling-science-learning programs that base science learning on narrative thinking are expected to be successful.

In this paper, we proposed a new education plan of electronics engineering in vocational high-school. And the new proposed education plan is applied to electronic circuit theory education which is known to be a very difficult subject. It is the inventive education using PSPICE and EWB that is assistant to study program. Also, multimedia is used to improve education of electronic engineering in vocational high-school. The effectiveness for the proposed education is investigated by using the questionnaire. After the inventive education, students and teachers are very improved and encouraged in terms of interest, understanding and attitude of study. Specially, students showed strong interest in the education linked with the university curriculum.

A camp program where the theory of inventive problem solving TRIZ is applied to real problems of the industry was developed and taught at a five-day seminar apart from the standard curriculum at a university D in Gyeonggido. This study focuses on the educational effect that the TRIZ method has on the engineering students when their creative problem solving skills are required to solve industry problems on their own with the knowledge from their courses. For five days, the students were educated about TRIZ and assigned a real industry problem "Removal of friction caused by bubble formation in water heating pipelines". By applying TRIZ to the problem, the students developed an "Air removing Air Arrester" which received the evaluation, "with understanding the system architecture and the task objective causes and formation of the problem could be handled which directly helps the company's R&D". In this case, TRIZ offers the students a guideline and knowledge on how to approach problems and as a result the students provided a practical solution. During the process, the TRIZ method instilled confidence in the students and proved to be a motivation. It becomes obvious that this short-term program has a positive effect on students' way of thinking creatively and increasing their problem-solving abilities.

It is examined that how flipped learning and mind-wandering affect an idea generation task. For the purpose, the participants in the idea generation task are divided into two groups to learn SIT(Systematic Inventive Thinking) and BCC(Business Creativity Codes) as idea generating tools in advance. One group learned the tools in a classroom, and the other group through an online education program. The creativity level of an idea is evaluated in the dimensions of originality, practicality, and realizability. The creativity levels of the ideas from the two groups are not statistically different in all the three creativity dimensions. To examine the effect of mind-wandering, another group generated ideas two hours a day in four days instead of eight hours in one day. The creativity levels of the ideas from the third group are higher in the dimensions of originality and practicality. This shows that the effectiveness of flipped learning is not so different from the face-to-face learning in a classroom, and mind-wandering has a positive effect in the learning.

This study examined the meaning of creativity of children and teachers from two novice early childhood teachers' perspectives. Each novice early childhood teacher implemented a creative education program in her classroom for 16 weeks after getting a teacher training about children's creativity. At the end of each session of creative education program, each teacher had an evaluation time and wrote their reflective journals. Date sources were reflective journals, in-depth interviews, and several artifacts. The findings were as follows; 1) The meaning of children's creativity related to children's personal characteristics, such as thinking and acting differently as well as engaging fully in their current play. 2) The meaning of teachers' creativity related to teacher's personal characteristics, such as escaping from task-oriented tendencies as well as implementing with inventive flexibility.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the satisfaction of the manufacturing process and the satisfaction of manufacturing lesson in the lesson of model product manufacturing based on IoT(Internet of Things) for pre-service technology teachers. and we also analyzed 'smart farm' model production manufacturing among various products. The survey questionnaires with 8 questions to investigate satisfaction level of model manufacturing process, difficulties in manufacturing, and the satisfaction level of manufacturing lesson were collected from the 15 pre-service technology teachers and analyzed by using SPSS program. and The results of this study were as follows: First, the lesson satisfaction average level of pre-service technology teachers was high(M=4.22) in model product manufacturing process for the 'smart farm' model making based on the IoT. Second, the average satisfaction level of 'patent search and prior art search report writing education' was as high as 4.07. Therefore, the application of 'prior art search report writing education' showed that it helped to make the product. Third, the best high satisfaction level in the model production manufacturing procedure was 'education of inventive thinking method'(M=4.40). Therefore, the pre-service technology teachers showed that the 'education of inventive thinking methods' was very helpful from the idea design to the optimal selection of idea. The next order of satisfaction level was high(M=4.33) in 'design education and counseling' and 'guidance through selection of professor who guide the production manufacturing in addition to professors who are in charge of lesson'. Because they were helpful in solving the lack of knowledge of pre-service technology teachers. Fourth, satisfaction level with 'the presentation of model making results and exhibitions', 'presentations and participations of external event' was high (M = 4.13). Although the results of interviews with pre-service technology teachers showed that they suffered from lack of knowledge in various technologies, but it was an opportunity to learn things and felt a sense of accomplishment.
