The purpose of this study is to analyze the images of children and adults that is reflected in TV commercial advertisements. For this purpose, 241 public TV advertisements were collected from the domestic ads information sites. The analysis criteria used for this study was the one modified from the ads analysis tool developed by Young-hee Ha(2011). The results showed that the number of ads employing the child model was varied according to the product item. The child model appeared the most in the ads for food/beverage and secondly, the ones for computer/electric home appliances. Furthermore, the child model behaved very similarly to the adults in the ads, especially in the aspect of positive communication. And both adult and a child models tended to have the main role in ads. Regarding the relationships among model characters, cooperative relationship between an adult and a child appeared the most and there were lots of family relationships. The results imply that a child in our society is becoming a considerable family member referred for making decision in purchasing commercial products. In addition, it is discussed that the child's image reflected in the ads would have influence on a child viewer's self image.

A school zone means a certain section designated among facilities, such as schools, childcare facilities, academies, etc., to protect children from the risk of traffic accidents. Since the school zone was established in September 1995, school zone accidents have not decreased even though it has been strengthened through a total of nine revisions until January 2021. This paper aims to present a standard model for child protection zones based on disaster prevention design. Methods of research included literature research, empirical research, and cognition research. Awareness survey was conducted on children, parents and drivers. Environmental surveys included crosswalks, motorways, pedestrian roads, and traffic lights. The investigation found that visual recognition of school zones by vehicle drivers was difficult, and found that motorcycles using pedestrian roads were a very threat to children. Accordingly, improved school zone standard model design centered on disaster prevention design was presented.

기하학적 사고력 개발이라는 우리의 목표는 궁극적으로 보다 낮은 수준의 학생들에게 보다 높은 수준으로 나아가게 하는 경험을 주는 것이다. 학생들이 보다 높은 수준에서 추론할 수 있도록 하기 위하여 그들이 보다 낮은 수준에서 충분하고 효율적인 학습 경험을 가져야 한다는 것이다. 예를 들면 분수에서 이루어지는 것처럼 기계적인 암기식으로 사물을 학습함으로써 수준(단계)을 뛰어 넘으려고 노력하면은 그들이 학습한 것에 관한 많은 것을 기억할 수 없을 것이다. 조작에 관한 보다 풍부한 경험과 시각적으로 입체감을 주는 설명을 들은 어린이들이 보다 훌륭한 공간 추론을 할 수 있을 것이라 믿는다. 본 고에서는 기하학적인 사고의 개발에 관한 van Hiele 모델이 초등학교에서 기하 수업의 토론을 위한 기초로서 사용되어졌다. 그 모델의 수준들이 묘사되었고 일반적으로 초등학교 아동들의 사고는 0수준과 1수준이라 는 것이 밝혀졌다. 단지 극소수의 아동들이 2수준의 사고에 도달해 있을 것이다. 그러나 만약 초등학교에서의 수업이 기하학적인 개념을 구성하는데 주안점을 둔다면 보다 많은 어린이들이 2 수준의 사고를 보여줄 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 0 수준의 어린이들은 도형의 형태에 초점이 맞추어져있고 1 수준의 어린이들은 도형의 성질을 이해하는데 에 있다. 2 수준의 사고자는 도형의 포함관계를 이해하고 비공식적으로 추론 할 수 있다. 처음 세 수준에서의 활동들에 대한 지침이 주어져 있으며 0 수준과 1수준에 연관되는 다수의 활동들을 묘사했다. 0수준의 어린이들을 위해 묘사된 활동들은 그들이 2차원 및 3차원의 도형 둘 다를 시각화하는데 도움을 주는 것이다. 1 수준에서 사고하는 학습자들을 위해 묘사된 활동들은 2차원 및 3차원 도형의 성질들을 강조했다. 아울러 본 고에서 언급한 활동들은 상호교수에의 접근을 반영했다. 그러한 접근방식은 학습자들로 하여금 그들의 활동과 의견으로부터 개념을 구성하게 해주며 그들의 활동 결과에 대해 다른 사람들과 의사소통 함으로서 개념을 명확하게 다듬어지게 해줄 수 있을 것이다. 아울러 평가 활동들이 본고의 마지막 부분에 주어져있다. 그러한 활동들은 교사들에게 어린이들의 기하학적인 사고수준을 결정하게 해주며 학습자들로 하여금 수업시간 이외에 보다 높은 사고수준으로 나아가게 해줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to measure the outcomes of a program provided by a public library using the evaluation framework based on Logic Model. A reading program for children which was operated by a public library in Seoul was selected. The outcome evaluation was started with the analysis of the reading program process including planning, operation, and evaluation. Based on the analysis, a logic model framework for outcome evaluation was developed. For evaluation, user, bibliography, and circulation data were collected from the library KOLAS system. Additionally, the participant information were extracted from the final report drafted after the program. The research results show that the number of circulation of program participants was increased after the program. In addition, the range of reading topic was expanded. These findings indicate that the reading program is an effective program for promoting children's reading habit and that outcome evaluation might be a valid tool to measure the effectiveness of public library programs.

Speech recognition is one of the areas actively commercialized using deep learning and machine learning techniques. However, the majority of speech recognition systems on the market are developed on data with limited diversity of speakers and tend to perform well on typical adult speakers only. This is because most of the speech recognition models are generally learned using a speech database obtained from adult males and females. This tends to cause problems in recognizing the speech of the elderly, children and people with dialects well. To solve these problems, it may be necessary to retain big database or to collect a data for applying a speaker adaptation. However, this paper proposes that a new end-to-end speech recognition method consists of an acoustic augmented recurrent encoder and a transformer decoder with linguistic prediction. The proposed method can bring about the reliable performance of acoustic and language models in limited data conditions. The proposed method was evaluated to recognize Korean elderly and children speech with limited amount of training data and showed the better performance compared of a conventional method.

Purpose of study: The purpose of this paper is to gain insight into the alternative possibility of Christian children's education overcoming the current church school paradigm namely schooling system by examining the characteristics and the direction of children's spiritual education. Research content and method: This paper is a review of the characteristics of children's spiritual education and ways to embody those characteristics. Therefore, it consists of two parts: the characteristics of children's spiritual education and the search for ways to embody those characteristics. First, children's spiritual education is a "formative" model that aims to form children's spirituality based on children's spirituality research that views children as 'spiritual beings.' This model specifically has three core orientations: 'experience', 'meeting God', and 'immersion'. In other words, children's spiritual education pursues 'experience rather than knowledge', pursues the experience of meeting God in the second person rather than teaching third-person knowledge about God, and values the spiritual moment of immersion more than anything else. Second, it searches for specific ways and methods through which those three core goals could be implemented, and found that they were 'sense,' 'liturgy,' and 'story.' The sense becomes a path that evokes experience, the liturgy becomes a place for 'meeting God,' and 'story' becomes a key path to 'immersion.' And when the three are organically combined with each other, the goals pursued by children's spiritual education can be holistically converged. Conclusions and Suggestions: Through these considerations, it found that the core values and direction of education are consistently maintained in children's spiritual education, from children's understanding to education methods. It also figured out that the direction should be shared not only by children's spiritual education but also by all who pursue holistic faith education: 'what to experience' rather than 'what to teach', 'liturgy' rather than 'teaching', 'story' rather than 'explanation', and 'sensory' experiences rather than 'abstract' knowledge.
