As the e-Learning plays an increasingly larger important part in education and has been increased as an alternative to offline education, academic organizations are moving ahead to set guidelines for quality assurance in e-Learning. And various quality assurance techniques in e-Learning have been developed because the e-Learning does not always match well traditional models of teaching and learning, much care needs to be taken in the design, creation and implementation of service. But the present quality assurances in e-Learning which are focused in learning objects have much problems because they use partial and static management. In this thesis we suggested dynamic quality assurance using CLD(Causal Loop Diagram) in e-Learning. The suggested method has more efficiency than existing methods and it can provide important strategies with regard to administrative issues in e-Learning.

The purpose of the study focuses on increasing dangers of using smartphones while driving recently, and then is to come up with measures to reduce traffic accidents caused by using devices like a smartphone. This study conducted a survey of drivers using their smartphones while driving to understand risks caused by using a smartphones while operating vehicles. Results showed that a lot of activities may lead to distracted driving, such as texting, making phone calls, using GPS or road maps, game, etc. In this paper, we presented that functions of smartphone should be controlled partially while driving for safe driving performance. These results suggest that using IoT-based smart devices like a beacon and a smartphone application implemented, tentatively called "Safe driving solution", while driving can reduce traffic accidents. Thus, in order to effectively prevent dangerous driving due to the use of smartphones, a "Safe driving solution" which restricts all functions except for calls and driver assistance functions is suggested.

This study reviews the issue of endogeneity which has gained in importance in the empirical accounting researches in recent years. In so doing, I aim to call attention to the extent to which the presence of endogeneity limits the validity of empirical testing of models. More specifically, this paper explains what endogeneity is, its causes and consequences, and potential ways of managing the problem. The issues that concern endogeneity include, in the main, omitted variables, simultaneity, equilibrium conditions, choice variables. In this paper, I also discuss the implications derived from several selected empirical accounting research topics, that explicitly dealt with the problem of endogeneity. These include, among others, Oswald and Zarowin's (2007) study on the informativeness of capitalization of R&D, Hazarika et al. (2012) focusing on the relationship among internal corporate governance, CEO turnover, and earnings management, and a series of literature devoted to the associations between corporate governance structure and firm values. Finally, possible approaches for dealing with endogeneity are discussed.

The purpose of this study is to develop a substantive theory that understand the burnout and secondary traumatic stress experience of social workers who worked in the trauma centers. This research was conducted by Grounded Theory. The result is as follow: In the initial coding, 159 units of mean, 47 subcategories, and 12 main categories. The central phenomenon of the initial coding was 'the wounded existence.' In the focused coding, the core category was 'seeking to recover professional identity as a social worker.' In the theoretical coding, the burnout and secondary traumatic stress experience of social workers who worked in the trauma centers were classified as four phases;'Commitment to the mission', 'Conflict', 'Stagnant' and 'Disruption'. Based on the findings, the preparation for the disaster social work practice, the perspective on "social healing" of trauma, and the necessity of the mandatory policy or intervention for social workers self-care were discussed.

Generally the estimation of effective rainfall is important in the rainfall-runoff analysis. So, we must pay attention to selecting more accurate effective rainfall estimation method. Although there are many effective rainfall estimation methods, the NRCS method is widely used for the estimation of effective rainfall in the ungaged basin. However, the NRCS method was developed based on the characteristics of the river basin in USA. So, it may have problems to use the NRSC method in Korea without its verification. In the NRCS method, the antecedent precipitation of 5-day is usually used for the estimation of effective rainfall. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the suitable antecedent precipitation day in Korea river basin through the case study. This study performs the rainfall-runoff simulation for the Tanbu river basin by HEC-HMS model under the condition of varying the antecedent precipitation day from 1-day to 7-day and performs goodness of fit test by Monte Carlo simulation method. The antecedent precipitation of 2-day shows the most preferable result in the analysis. This result indicates that the NRCS method should be applied with caution according to the characteristics of the river basin.

New Korean traditional wine was developed using Gugija (Lycii fructus) and medicinal plants. Gugija wines were brewed by serial addition of Gugija root and medicinal plants into rice mash containing 1% Gugija fruit, and its physioco-chemical properties, physiological functionality, and overall acceptability were investigated. Traditional Gugija wine prepared by serial addition of 0,1% each Gugija roots and Doochung, and 1.0% each Gamcho and dandelion into the rice mash containing 1% Gugija fruit showed highest acceptability and ethanol content (16,0%). Traditional Gugija wine prepared by adding 0.1% Gugija leaf into the Gugija wine showed highest acceptability and high antihypertensive angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activity (66.1%).

With the proliferation of vehicles and advancement of Information Technology, the technology of Telematics, which provides valuable services to people by collecting and analyzing the information from drivers, vehicles and Telematics environments (e.g. traffic information, road condition, weather information, etc.), has been a hot research area in IT and automotive recently. As the information technology revolution brings more and more assistance for driver information processing becomes increasing important. Therefore, drivers' workload is very essential factor for safety driving in Telematics environment. For managing drivers' workload effectively, ETRI haven been developing vehicle and driver management system which can collect data from drivers and vehicle in realtime and analyze the data to manage drivers' and vehcles' status since 2007. This technology will apply to commercial vehicle telematics such as texi or truck management system in the future for increasing driving safety. In this presentation, I would like to explain what we had developed so far and discuss future direction.
