The purpose of this study was to develop a STEAM-based science education program for children and to verify its effectiveness. An S-STEAM-based science education program for young children was developed through careful analysis of prior research on science education for young children and S-STEAM. The participants were 29 four-year-old children from daycare centers located in Seoul (an experimental group of 14 and comparative group of 15). The S-STEAM program was applied to the experimental group, while the control group went through a general science education course provided by the government. TTCT of Creative Thinking (TTCT: Figures A and B) was used as a research tool, and a multiple intelligence test tool was applied to teachers of the groups. Afterwards, analysis of covariance was implemented to find the S-STEAM program's effects. First, the results showed positive effects on overall creativity, as well as in fluency, originality, abstractness, elaboration, and openness components of creativity. Second, the results showed positive effects on overall multiple intelligences and its components of linguistic, musical, spatial, logical/mathematical, physical exercise, interpersonal, and naturalist intelligence.

The subject of the study consisted of 71 patients with advanced cancer who were admitted to a university hospital and received palliative chemotherapy, and the research tool used CNAT (Comprehensive Needs Assessment tool in Cancer) developed by Shin et al., and data analysis was an independent sample. It was analyzed by t-test, ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. As a result of the study, the medical staff's area was the highest at 2.34 ± 0.63 out of 4 points, followed by psychological problems (2.09 ± 0.53) and information education (1.69 ± 0.45). Factors influencing unmet needs include educational background (β=.207, p=.047), thoughts on death (β=-.269, p=.018), diagnosis (β=-.283, p=. 013). Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to consider the needs of the medical staff in advanced cancer patients, provide psychological support, and consider ways to meet the needs according to academic background and diagnosis.

The purpose of this study is to analyze converged factors affecting learning flow in nursing college students. The study conducted survey on 200 nursing students attending a college in Chungcheongbuk-do. The study processed data using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis for the analysis. As for the relationship between self-leadership, social support and learning flow, the higher self-leadership(r=568, p<.001), and social support (r=.412, p<.001) led to higher learning flow of the study subject. The influential variables of learning flow was self-leadership with 33.0% of explanation power(${\beta}=.501$, p<.001). Likewise, the study confirmed that self-leadership is a very significant variable of learning flow of nursing students. Based on the theoretic grounds, there is a need to seek measures to improve learning flow by improving self-leadership of nursing students.
