Key Competencies Needed for Future in the Republic of Korea - Problem Solving Ability : Ability to Integrate -

Problem solving is the most important capability needed for future society for Korea and bring up problem solving ability(Ministry of Education, 1997) and measurement of such capability is major focus in national test of Korea(Kim Joohoon et al., 2005; Kim Jaechul et al., 2006; Civil Service Commission,2007). Organization of Economic Cooperation & Development (OECD) Programme for International Student Assessment(PISA) also assessed the problem solving ability as a major domain as a goal of education (PISA,2004). So I would like to describe why problem solving is so important and how such capability is measured in the national level test in Korea.
