2017년 6월 19일 고리 원전 1호기 영구정지 기념식에서 문재인 대통령의 '탈원전' 선언을 계기로, 국내에서는 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 탈원전으로 복귀한 독일의 사례에 대한 관심이 고조되었다. 독일은 1986년 체르노빌 원전 사고 이후 탈원전에 대한 논의가 본격적으로 이루지면서 집권 정부의 성향과 사회 경제적 요인에 따라 "2000년 탈원전 선언 ${\rightarrow}$ 2010년 탈원전 보류 ${\rightarrow}$ 2011년 탈원전 복귀"의 결정 과정을 거쳤다. 이러한 정책 변화의 배경에는 간헐성의 재생에너지를 뒷받침(back-up)할 수 있는 자국의 풍부한 갈탄 매장량, 지리적으로 주변국과 연결된 전력망을 통해 전력을 상시 주고받을 수 있는 전력 수급 환경, 탈원전에 대한 정부 국민 산업계의 40여년에 걸친 합의형성 등 '독일 자국의 실정을 반영한 정책적 판단'이 자리하고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 2011년 후쿠시마 원전 사고 직후 독일의 즉각적인 탈원전 복귀는 화석연료 사용의 증가로 인한 온실가스 배출량 증가, 재생에너지 보조금 증가 및 송전망 확대로 인한 전기요금 상승, 간헐성의 재생에너지로 인한 불안정한 전력 수급, 과잉 생산된 전력의 수출로 인한 주변국 전력계통 혼란 등의 문제를 초래하고 있다. 이에 본고에서는 독일의 탈원전 정책이 '어떤 정책결정 과정을 거쳤으며, 현실적으로 어떤 문제에 직면해 있는지'를 살펴보고 우리나라의 에너지 수급 현실을 반영한 정책적 시사점을 도출하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of educational evaluation with the application of flipped learning on undergraduate students' self-directed learning ability (cognitive domains, motive domains, conductive domains) and cognitive learning competency (knowledge and thought, creation, problem solving). An educational evaluation class, which applied flipped learning designed on the basis of pre-class, in-class, and post-class, was taught to 57 undergraduate students for twelve of the sixteen weeks of a semester. It was held each week on Thursdays for two (Ed- I don't understand 'for two'). The study results showed that, applying the flipped learning educational education class for undergraduate students improved self-directed learning ability (motivation domains, behavior domains) and cognitive learning competence (higher order thinking, metacognition, creativity tendency, problem-solving process). This study provides meaningful suggestions on exploring instructional design and effective teaching and learning methods applied to flipped learning.

This study is to verify the effect of similarity of expanded-product, brand concepts of parent-brands and implicit theory of customers on the brand-extension evaluation, in order to reduce the risk of brand extension. First, this research documents how the similarity between the parent-brands and expanded-products affect brand-extension evaluations as a main effect variable. Second, this study examines the moderating effect of the brand concepts of parent-brands on the brand-extension evaluation. Third, this research documents how implicit theories regarding personality affect consumer evaluations about the brand-extension. The study assumes and tests that consumers in the group of incremental theorists are more accepting of brand-extensions than consumers in the group of entity theorists. The result figures out the implicit theory customers has some moderating effect on the evaluations, yet the direction of the effects is contrary to expectations.

Purpose: This longitudinal study was done to investigate critical thinking dispositions and critical thinking skills of nursing students enrolled in a 4-year baccalaureate program at a university in Korea. Method: The study used a longitudinal design. A convenience sample of 32 nursing students who were completing their 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year in a baccalaureate program at a selected university was included. The subjects completed the California Critical Thinking Dispositions Inventory (CCTDI), the California Critical Thinking Skill Test (CCTST), and a demographic questionnaire. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, repeated ANOVA, adjusted p-values, and Pearson's correlation coefficient with SAS 8.12. Results: There was statistically significant improvement according to academic year in the CCTDI total mean score (F=7.54, p= .0001) and subscales of Open-mindedness, Self-confidence, and Maturity. Contrarily, no statistically significant difference was found in the CCTST total mean score and subscales' score except Analysis. Conclusion: There is no significant correlation between critical thinking dispositions and skills, so it will be necessary to repeat a study like this, and the translated instruments should be modified by considering Korean culture.
