KERIS
Korea Education & Research Information Service (KERIS, Korean: 한국교육학술정보원; Hanja: 韓國教育學術情報院) is a governmental organization under the South Korean Ministry of Education, Science and Technology that develops, proposes, and advises on current and future government policies and initiatives regarding education in South Korea.
Its current focus is on the development of ICT in educational systems in South Korea and abroad and works closely with international organizations such as the World Bank and UNESCO to assist other nations in developing or improving their own ICT infrastructure and implementation.
In addition to policy, KERIS provides educators and the public with educational services such as the National Education Information Service (NEIS) - neis.go.kr, the Research Information Service System (RISS) - riss4u.net, the National Education Service System (EDUNET) - edunet.net, and Korea Open CourseWare (KOCW) - kocw.net.
KERIS was established by the KERIS Act (Statue No. 5,685) on April 22, 1999. KERIS came about through the consolidation of the Korean Multimedia Education Center (KMEC) and the Korean Research Information Center (KRIC).
The stated mission of KERIS is to develop human resources through e-Learning, regain public trust in education, lay a foundation for a knowledge and information-based society by activation of e-Learning, and to enhance national education and research competitiveness through academy digitalization. It works towards these goals by being involved in multiple ongoing tasks and projects.
KERIS conducts research and planning in a variety of sectors related to educational policy and planning in Korea. Its main points of interest cover various aspects of ICT in education and include: the development of human resources; the training of elementary and secondary school teachers and administrators; the effectiveness of proposed and ongoing policy initiatives; and the future and current integration of e-Learning materials and ICT into the education system. Through a close working relationship with the Korean Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development and offices of education, KERIS is able to receive feedback and suggestions on the results of its research and planning.
KERIS is involved in many aspects of e-Learning in efforts to reduce the cost of private tutoring and strengthen the existing education system. It conducts research, disseminates planning and policy proposals, assists in the diffusion and adoption of e-Learning materials and evaluates their effectiveness. In addition to these activities, KERIS oversees a variety of e-Learning services through the web.
The National Teaching & Learning Center (EDUNET), is a comprehensive education information service in Korea with public access, but designed specifically for teachers and students. Through linkage to the central government, local governments, and schools, EDUNET provides a range of instructional and learning support material and other education-related information.
