The purpose of this study is to present a reflective review of the earth and universe units from the revised elementary curriculum of 2007-2015 and suggest changes in the 2022 revised curriculum. For this purpose, we conducted an FGI with earth science educators and elementary school teachers regarding the content elements and system, the achievement standards and inquiry activity composition, and the vertical and horizontal curriculum connectivity. Free response and weighted hierarchical analysis items were incorporated into the FGI to ensure logical consistency of the inductively derived improvement. This analysis revealed that the composition of units by grade group had been unevenly distributed among each of the "earth systems" until the 2015 revised curriculum was finalized. Furthermore, the basic concept was still insufficient. We suggest that achievement standards centered on the learning content and skills must state specific scientific core competencies, and inquiry activities should include rigorous critical thinking, student written responses, and student inquiry and analysis. In the hierarchical analysis items, FGI emphasized the inclusion of essential content elements rather than reduction of content elements, understanding-oriented concept learning rather than interest-centered phenomenon learning, basic concept division learning before integration between subjects, and expanding vertical-horizontal connectivity rather than repeating and advancing learning. There is a limit to the generalizing the suggestions proposed in this study to the common opinion of elementary earth science experts. However, since the main vision of the 2022 revised curriculum is to gather opinions through educational entities' participation in a variety of educational subjects, it is suggested that our results should be incorporated as one of the opinions proposed for the 2022 curriculum revision.

본 논문은 미국 농촌병원의 경영전략과 관련하여 몇가지 가설을 검증한 연구결과이다. 구체적으로 1987년부터 1991년 사이의 미국 농촌병원들의 기본적 경영전략 지향 형태와 변화 추세, 경영전략과 환경 및 병원특성과의 관계, 그리고 경영전략과 재정적 성과의 관계 등이 연구되었다. 본 연구의 자료수집은 미국 농촌지역의 모든 종교병원과 영리병원, 그리고 무작위 표본추출로 뽑힌 50%의 공공병원 및 기타 비영리 병원의 최고경영자를 대상으로 1989년에 우편설문조사를 통해 이루어졌으며 회수된 설문지 중 사용가능한 640개 병원 (응답율 43%)의 자료가 분석 이용되었다. 조사대상병원의 환경적 특성자료는 지역자원 파일(Area Resource File)에서 수집하였고, 병원특성 및 재정적 성과자료는 미국병원협회 연감(Annual Survey of Hospitals)에서 구하였다. 응답병원과 비응답병원간에 환경 및 병원특성에 유의한 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 Miles와 Snow가 개발한 방어형(defender), 분석형(analyzer), 진보형(prospector), 반응형(reactor)의 네가지 경영전략지향 형태를 사용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1) 미국 농촌 병원들은 과거에는 방어형 및 분석형의 경영전략 지향을 보이다가 점차 반응형과 진보형으로 변화해 가고 있다. 2) 가장 뚜렷한 경영전략 지향의 변화추세는 방어형이 급격히 줄고 반응형이 크게 늘어나고 있다는 점이다. 이는 많은 병원들이 급격한 환경변화에 적응하기 위해 일관된 전략 지향보다 융통성 있고 탈력적인 경영전략을 선호하고 있음을 나타낸다. 3) 농촌병원들은 경영전략의 급격한 변화를 추구하지는 않을 것이라는 가설을 뒷받침할 근거는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 급격한 의료환경의 변화로 인해 병원들이 다양한 경영전략의 변화를 모새하고 있는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 4) 대부분의 외부환경 및 병원특성은 병원의 전략지향의 선택에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났으나 인구 10,000명당 의사수, 병상규모, 위탁경영 여부, 병상점유율, 소유형태 등의 변수들이 경영전략 지향 형태에 따라 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 5) 경영전략 지향이 상이한 병원들은 세부 실천전략에 있어서도 치이가 있을 것이라는 가설을 일부 전략에 있어서 사실인 것으로 나타났다. 즉 방어형 병원들은 진보형이나 반응형 병원들보다 내부관리전략, 다양화 전략, 의사유치전략, 직원복지전략 등에 있어서 소극적인 것으로 나타났다. 6) 비록 방어형 병원들이 다른 형태의 병원보다 낮은 재정적 성과를 보이고 있었지만 본 연구의 자료로는 경영전략지향과 재정적 성과간의 인과관계를 구명할 수 없었다. 또한 재정적성과에 따른 전략지향의 변화여부도 통계적으로 유의한 관계가 있지는 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 각각의 전략지향들이 환경에 따라 나름대로 장점을 가질 수 있으며 반드시 어느 한가지의 전략지향만이 최선은 아님을 시사해주고 있다. 7) 병원의 경영전략 변화는 환경의 변화와 더블어 그러한 변화에 적응할 수 있는 내부의 능력과도 관계가 있는 것으로 보인다. 이상의 연구결과에 따르면 미국의 농촌병원들은 급격한 환경변화에 적응하기 위하여 다수의 병원들이 환경 및 벼원특성에 관계없이 생존을 위한 전략적 노력을 기울이고 있음을 알 수 있다. 끝으로 이러한 연구결과는 최근 어려운 경영환경에 처한 한국의 농촌병원들도 합리적인 경영을 위해서는 병원이 처한 외부환경분석과 함께 내부의 능력에 적합한 경영전략의 방향을 설정하고 그에 따른 실천적 세부 경영전략을 수립해야만 한다는 것을 시사해 주고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze an experience of field practice perceived by vocational teachers. Data for analysis were collected from 689 vocational teachers who participated in the training at the Center for in-service teacher education in the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Seoul National University and at the Center for in-service teacher education of Chungnam National University. After screening, 685 responses were used in the analysis. As a result, it turned out that only 112 vocational teachers(16.5%) participated in the field practice for more than 4 weeks when they were in pre-service education. However, vocational teachers seemed to perceive that experience of field practice was generally required in pre-service education(average 4.07). In-depth questionnaire was conducted on 143 respondents who replied that they participated in field practice program for more than 4 weeks and those who participated in the program for less than 4 weeks but completed the paperwork. Most of vocational teachers who participated in field practice were placed in small and medium sized enterprises, stayed at home or relatives' home and commuted by the bus or subway. In this research, 34.8% of the vocational teachers who participated in field practice received financial compensation and 80.3% of the teachers got credit recognition. The perception of satisfaction on field practice program was found to be moderate(average 3.51).

This study was conducted to provide the policy information on implementing forestry mechanization through analyzing the project results and policy effectiveness. Study method adopted LISREL (Linear Structural Relationships) model which is the covariance structural equation model. Data was collected by questionnaires on the executors who are actually executing the forestry mechanization project. The analysis results on project outcome, policy satisfaction, and education and training showed the average. But the policy consistency, the consolidation of law and system and the spreading of forest machines showed bellow the average. Therefore, it is necessary to implement the consistent policy through the consolidation of law and system, and to increase the spreading ratio of forest machines in the forestry mechanization. In forestry mechanization project, the policy basis, the spreading of forest machines, and the education and training showed the positive affect on the policy outcome, respectively. The policy outcome had the positive affect on policy satisfaction. Accordingly, although the forestry mechanization policy system is important, it is necessary to spread the forest machines and to increase the training and education of operators for the successful forestry mechanization in the future.

The objective of this study is to present and verify a method for evaluating the fundamental period of a rockfill dam using artificially generated vibration from a blasting event. In this study, the artificial blasting vibration tests were carried out at the site adjacent to the existing Seongdeok Dam for the first time in Korea. The artificial vibrations were induced by 4 different types of blasting with the various depths of blasting boreholes and the various explosive charge weight. During the tests, the accelerations time histories were recorded at the crest of the dam. In this acceleration history, only free vibration decay part following the main vibration event was extracted and it was analyzed by frequency domain analysis using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). From the results of FFT, the fundamental period of the target dam was evaluated. It is found that the effect of different blasting types on the fundamental period of the target dam is negligible and the fundamental period of the target dam can be consistently obtained by blasting vibration tests. Furthermore, it is found that the period of the target dam calculated by the method using blasting vibration test is similar to that obtained by the method of previous researchers using the real earthquake records. Therefore, in case that the earthquake record is not available, the fundamental period of a rockfill dam can be reasonably evaluated if blasting vibration test is allowed at the site adjacent to the dam.

Since traditional static metadata set like Dublin Core has static metadata attributes about bibliography information, integration of metadata for various metadata, problems about standard and extension of metadata must be considered for applying it to new environment. Specially, as event-driven metadata write method included the notion of e-commerce come out for interoperability in digital libraries, traditional metadata management which cannot distinguish between different kinds of update operations to new extension of metadata set occurs unsuitable waiting of update operation. So, improvement is needed about it. In this paper, we show whether alleviative transaction consistency can be applied to digital library or not. Also it would divide newer metadata into static metadata attribute connected in read operation within user read-only transaction and dynamic metadata attribute in update operation within dynamic(e-commerce) update transactions. We propose newer metadata management algorithm considered in classfication of metadata attributes and dynamic update transaction. Using two version for minimal maintenance cost and ARU(Appended Refresh Unit) for dynamic update transaction, to minimize conflict between read and write operations shows fast response time and high recency ratio. As a result of the performance evaluation, we show our algorithm is proved to be better than other algorithms in newer metadata environments.

This study analyzes on the perception of public librarians about lifelong education tasks in public library using Mann Whitney U-test, Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient, Multiple regression analysis. At the same time, analysis about re-education needs using Analytic Hierarchy Process is conducted. As result, at first, 87% of respondents feel moderate or difficult about lifelong education tasks, especially on planning task. At second, librarians who have qualification about lifelong educator feel easier (P=0.04) than others, in detail, task about lecturer liaison (P=0.04) and planning (P=0.05). Adding that, the career experience and the job difficulty of librarians has negative relationship (R=-0.217). Especially scheduling (R=-0.33) and progressing (R=-0.22) tasks show statistically meaningful. At third, as the result of Multiple regression analysis, tasks about planning (P=0.04) and library marketing (P=0.05) are selected as meaningful elements which effect overall difficulty of life long education job. As final, 91% of librarian need retraining for life long education function, as result of spearman (R=-0.210), the more librarians feels difficult about life long education jobs, the more they need retraining. Anyway, as the result of priority of retraining subjects through AHP technique, user communication (CU P=0.310), planning (PL P=0.246), library marketing (LM P=0.173) are in weight order. CR ratio shows 0.146 with permissible degree.

The present survey was conducted to provide basic information on Hanwoo calf weaning age and farmer's understanding of early weaning. Eight hundred and sixty-two Hanwoo breeding farms from all nine provinces were surveyed via personal interviews. The percentages of farms categorized by herd size were 30.5%, 32.8%, 26.0% and 10.7% for <50 heads, 51~100 heads, 101~200 heads and >200 heads, respectively. The percentage of farms weaning calves at three months of age were 39.2% and 12% of farms weaned calves less than two months of age. But the percentage of farms weaning at or over four months of age were still high, being 16.1% at four months of age and 16.6% over five months of age, respectively. The result of the present study showed that calf weaning age in Hanwoo was inconsistent and higher percentage of farms wean calves at three months of age among the surveyed farms. The improvement of cow reproductive performance was answered as the biggest merit of early weaning.

지속가능한 국가 발전을 위한 물관리 정책은 항상 국정 과제의 중심에 있다. 물관리는 수재해예방, 양질의 안정된 물이용, 충분한 식량생산, 수생태계와 물환경의 보호, 효과적 재정투자 등과 같이 다양한 분야에 계층적이면서도 상호연계성 있는 전문성을 요구한다. 동시에 물관리의 효과와 편익은 경제활동의 기반이 되고 환경보전의 원천이므로 정책의 수요는 정부뿐만 아니라 국민과 더불어 자연으로부터 기인한다. 특히 기후변화의 불확실성 또는 감염병 대발생과 국가적 위기에도 지속가능한 국가 발전을 이행하기 위해서는 시의성 있고 유효한 물관리 정책은 필수이다. 그동안 우리나라 물관리 정책의 세분화 또는 파편화는 물관리 전문성 강화의 효과보다는 비효율성의 결과를 더 크게 생산해 왔었다. 특히 부족한 협력과 조정은 과잉·중복 투자, 비일관적 정책, 비효율적 성과라는 왜곡된 통합물관리 정책 순환이 반복되게 하였다. 최근 정부는 국토교통부의 하천수량(홍수 포함) 및 광역상수도 관리 기능을 환경부로 이관하는 물관리일원화를 추진하여 통합물관리의 발판을 마련하는 계기를 달성하였다. 하지만 비록 정부조직법 개정과 물관리기본법 제정으로 통합물관리 정책의 틀은 마련되었으나, 국토교통부가 하천법 상의 일부 사무를 담당하므로서 하천관리 정책의 복잡성과 다원화는 높아졌다. 따라서 하천의 이용 및 관리에 관한 만족도, 관리주체, 미래상, 물관리일원화 후 정책수요, 기후변화에 관한 인식, 하천관리 참여 의향 등을 조사하는 연구는 시급한 실정이며 향후 하천기본계획, 생태하천복원사업, 소하천정비사업 등과 같은 재정사업의 추진 방향에도 매우 중요한 주제라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재와 미래 하천의 이용 및 관리, 그리고 정책방향에 대하여 일반 시민(4,500명)과 전문가(168명) 대상의 설문조사를 실시하였으며 인식의 공통점과 차이를 비교분석하였다. 설문조사의 내용은 3가지 부문(하천이용, 하천관리, 하천정책)으로 구분하여 각 부문별로 세부문항으로 구성하였다. 일반 시민과 전문가 간의 인식조사 비교 결과, 공통적으로 시민과 전문가는 하천의 바람직한 미래상으로 '깨끗한 수질의 하천'을 가장 높게 선호하였다. 하천관리 우선순위를 묻는 질문에 대한 시민과 전문가의 응답도 대하천, 도랑이나 개울, 중하천, 소하천 순으로 동일하였지만, 1순위와 2순위의 격차는 시민(26.1%)보다 전문가(1.2%)가 낮았다. 또한 시민과 전문가는 하천관리의 주체로 '물전문기관'을 가장 높게 선호하였지만, 전문가는 '물전문기관' 다음으로 중앙부처(20.2%)를 선호하였지만, 시민은 중앙부처(6.8%)를 가장 선호하지 않는 하천관리 주체로 응답하여 두 집단 간의 큰 인식의 차이를 알 수 있었다. 물관리일원화 후 보다 큰 관심을 가져야할 정책으로는 '건강하고 깨끗한 수질'을 시민(38.9%)과 전문가(47.0%)는 1순위로 선택하였으나, 2순위는 시민은 '생태서식공간'(11.6%)을 전문가는 '안정적 수량확보'(20.2%)를 선택하여 두 집단의 인식 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

This study aimed to investigate pre-service science teachers' perceptions of significance and usefulness of evolution and genetics. To this end, 82 pre-service biology teachers and 159 non-biology science teachers answered the items to measure the perceptions of significance and usefulness of evolution and genetics. The validity and reliability were examined using Cronbach alpha, two-dimensional rating scale model Rasch analysis, and factor analysis. The finding illustrated that the test items met the benchmark to be valid and reliable test items. Second, pre-service teachers' perception of significance and usefulness of evolution was independent to that of genetics. The level of pre-service teachers' perception of significance and usefulness of evolution was lower than the level of genetics. Lastly, the levels of pre-service teachers' perceptions of significance and usefulness of evolution and genetics were not significantly different across academic years and majors (biology and non-biology). The findings of this study stressed the importance of teaching significance and usefulness of evolution and genetics in pre-service science teacher education program.
