This study looks for the requirements for adaptive courseware and provides background for developing effective adaptive courseware. Most adaptive courseware does not adequately reflect the requirements of learners. If it properly reflected learners' requirements well, it could be used more effectively. therefore, this study analyzes and suggests the requirements of an adaptive courseware for pre-service teachers who are majoring in computer education. The study methods were factor analysis and frequency analysis through survey. The results show that the important elements of an adaptive courseware are a learning style designed according to individual differences as well as an instruction model appropriate to the subject domain. The study examined adaption by learner level, by learning objective, by learning style, by method of learning content, and by learning history in that order. Therefore while the most of adaptive courseware support learning style; we propose that the adaptive courseware will support learning objects and instruction model as well.

There are an increasing number of reports that job related factors are associated with hypertension, sleep deprivation, obesity and diabetes. This study analyzed the relationship of working type, working hours and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome. The study's subjects were 2,777 employees (1,446 males and 1,331 females) over 19 years old and their data was from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey (2015). The type of work was divided into day work and shift work. The working hours were divided into less than 40 hours, 40 to 49 hours, 50 to 59 hours and 60 hours or more per week. As a result of this study, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 26.4% of the males and 19.1% of the females. Generally there was no relationship between metabolic syndrome and type of work (day work and shift work). As a result of analysis of working hours and metabolic syndrome, the workers who worked 40-49 hr were associated with a decreased prevalence of metabolic syndrome as compared to that of workers who worked less than 40 hr (odds ratio: 0.47, 95% confidence interval: 0.24-0.95, p<0.05). Further, positive relationships were found between the number of work hours and the prevalence metabolic syndrome for specific females who worked over 40 hr/wk. It can be concluded from the results that it is important to help workers avoid metabolic syndrome through setting appropriate work hours.

환경기초시설은 인간의 활동으로 인하여 발생하는 오염물질에 대한 적극적인 대응시설이다. 이는 환경기초시설로 유입되는 오염물의 경우 농도와 양적인 측면에서 부하가 상당히 크다는 것을 알 수 있으며 이러한 오염물질들이 제대로 처리되지 못하면 심각한 환경오염문제를 초래함은 자명한 사실이다. 환경기초시설 중 하폐수처리장은 수계관리에 있어 대표적인 점오염원으로 해당 방류수역의 적절한 수질을 유지하기 위해 하폐수처리장의 방류수는 수질기준을 엄격하게 준수함을 넘어 수질기준보다 훨씬 낮은 수준으로 방류수의 농도를 유지함이 바람직하다. 재난 등으로 인하여 이러한 하폐수처리장의 정상운영에 문제가 발생하였을 때 해당 방류수역에 심각한 영향을 주게 된다. 실제 경주 및 포항지진, 태풍 매미 등 자연재해로 인한 하폐수처리장의 피해가 다수 발생하여 해당 방류수역에 많은 영향을 미쳤을 것으로 추정되나 과거 피해를 입은 환경기초시설의 경우 시설 자체에 대한 피해정도나 복구상황에 대한 조사 및 후속보고는 있었으나 하페수처리장의 기능상실에 따른 해당 수역의 오염정도나 피해에 대한 보고는 없었다. 이는 하폐수처리장의 기능상실이 해당 수역에 미치는 영향을 정확하게 파악하지 못함으로 실질적인 피해 정도를 가늠할 수 없게 만들었을 뿐만 아니라 향후 비슷한 피해가 발생하였을 때 어떠한 대처가 필요한지에 대한 계획수립에 도움을 줄 수 없게 되는 결과를 초래하였다. 본 연구에서는 폐수처리시설이 여러변수에 의해 피해를 입어 정상적인 가동이 어려운 상황이 발생하여 유입수가 처리되지 않고 방류되었을 때 방류수역에 미치는 영향을 모의하였다. 낙동강으로 처리수를 직접 방류하는 달성2차 산업단지 폐수처리장을 대상으로 모의를 진행하였고 모의결과는 하폐수처리장의 미처리수 방류에 있어 가장 중요한 점은 방류수의 수질상태 보다는 유량이었음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 하폐수처리장의 기능상실에 따른 피해정도를 가늠함으로 향후 하폐수처리장의 기능상실에 대처할 수 있는 적절한 대응대책 수립에 기초적인 자료를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

Bacteria grow biofilm on various surface such as separation membrane, food packaging film and biomedical device. Growth of biofilm is associated with the formation of a complex structure of exopolysaccharides. Effect of antibacterial effect reduce drastically once the biofilm developed due to the difficulties in mass transport of antimicrobial agent. In order to enhance the antibacterial activity, surface of the membrane is modified, coated or immobilized with functional materials with biocidal properties. One of the idea is to introduce positive charge on the membrane surface by the presence of quaternary ammonium group which might displace divalent metal ion such as magnesium or calcium present in the bacteria cell wall. Efficacy of cell membrane disruption depends on the mobility of the agents available directly on the surface environment. In this review, various biocidal agents like quaternary ammonium group, helamine or zwitter ion containing membrane are discussed.

The investment agreement prepared at the beginning of inter-Korean economic cooperation in 2000 can be evaluated as very ineffective as a product of mutual political and diplomatic compromise rather than an effective protection for our investment assets. South Korean companies suffered a lot of losses due to the freezing of assets in the Geumgang mountain district and the closure of the Kaeseung Industrial Complex, but they did not receive practical damage relief due to institutional vulnerabilities. Currently, North Korea is under international economic sanctions of the UN Security Council, so it is true that the resumption of inter-Korean economic cooperation is far away, but North Korea's human resources and geographical location are still attractive investment destinations for us. Therefore, if strained relations between the two Koreas recover in the future and international economic sanctions on North Korea are eased, Korean companies' investment in North Korea will resume. However, the previous inter-Korean investment agreement system was a fictional systemthat was ineffective. Therefore, if these safety devices are not reorganized when economic cooperation resumes, unfair damage to Korean companies will be repeated again. The core of the improved investment guarantee system is not a bilateral system between the two Koreas, but the establishment of a multilateral system through North Korea's inclusion in the international economy. Specifically, it includes encouraging North Korea to join international agreements for the execution of arbitration decisions, securing subrogation rights through membership of international insurance groups such as MIGA, creating matching funds by international financial organizations. Through this new approach, it will be possible to improve the safety of Korean companies' investment in North Korea, and ultimately, it will be necessary to lay the foundation for mutual development through economic cooperation between the two Koreas.

The untact environment brought about by the global pandemic has emerged as a new driving force for the matured social media market. In the post-coronavirus era, there arises a pivotal need for foundational data to reconfigure the operations and utilization strategies of social media. Using data from the 2022 Korean Media Panel Survey, this study compared sociodemographic and personality factors between social media non-users and users, and examined how these factors influenced social media usage time. The findings indicate differences between social media non-users and users in terms of gender, age, education level, income level, employment status, marital status, openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, and neuroticism. Usage time of social media is influenced by gender, age, income level, employment status, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. These results are anticipated to enhance the understanding of users and their usage behaviors for stakeholders in the social media market as they confront a potential second leap forward.
