Abstract |
This article started from the point that we should redesign the tertiary curricula in order to prepare for the industry 4.0 era. It aims at providing with theoretical basis for redesigning the curriculum at college level, recognising 4 dimensional education including knowledge, skills, character, meta learning and designing courses for enhancing especially critical thinking skill that is essential to the education at the universities. For this purpose, I examined domestic and foreign research and discussed about applying to redesigning curricula and courses.
Firstly, I defined the 4th Industry and descreibed its effect and the role of higer education in the industry 4.0 era. Then I emphasized the necessity of the 4 dimensional education in redisigning curricula and explored feasibility of it in redesigning curricula of the Korean universities. Secondly, I summarised contents of the 4 dimensional education that consist of knowledge, character, skills and meta learning. Finally, I dealt with course designing to teach critical thinking skill and illustrated content, methods and assessment which could be used in the course.
It can be possible to utilize the information and materials in designing curricula in which speciality of each setting is reflected. For it to be more meaningful, it is desirble to develop and manage courses and to evaluate the achievement of the learners and courses. In that case, we can equip learners for the successful college and career life. |
