Purpose: This study tested a model of hospice volunteer's motivations and outcomes to encourage more volunteer workers to participate in hospice care. Methods: This included 200 volunteers who attended the Autumn Conference in 2007 and 132 volunteers from five hospice organizations. Results: Volunteers' existential well-being affected an endogenous variable of volunteers' participation in volunteer activities. The durability of volunteer activity was affected by value motivation, the level of participation in volunteer activities and the level of job satisfaction. For volunteers' job satisfaction level, valid endogenous variables included existential well-being, social motivation, understanding motivation and value motivation. The durability of volunteer activities was indirectly affected through three different paths. Volunteers' existential well-being determined the level of their participation in volunteer activities, which in turn affected the durability of such activities. Social motivation influenced volunteers' job satisfaction, and then the durability of volunteer activities. Volunteers' understanding of motivation also influenced their job satisfaction, and then the durability of volunteer activities. Conclusion: Based on these results, this study proposes that the durability of volunteers activities could be improved by developing a program to improve volunteers' well-being and by providing volunteers with education on altruistic values, encouraging them to seek intellectual growth, and advocating them to continue volunteer activities based on close relationships with other volunteers.

The purpose of this study was to find out whether or not the disabled students' assistance could be interpreted as a serious leisure. t is academically worth because this study reviewed if college students voluntarism could be considered a leisure and provided fundamental information about the interaction between the volunteered and the disabled. Voluntarism in the college level, in general, is spontaneous. The volunteered are expected to experience a psychological well-being, and their participation in voluntary activity helps them have a chance to develop socially, emotionally, and psychologically. In addition, as Stebbins(2001) claims, a serious leisure could be kept with one's enjoyment and play a role of leisure. Therefore, this study interviewed 6 college students who played a role of a spontaneous assistant. As results, 103 conceptual terms and 13 sub-categories and 5 higher categories were come out. The volunteered had stress at the early stage and experienced a state of being identified with the disabled. They, however, had an opportunity to foster expertise for volunteering, which contributes to their increased enjoyment and consistent volunteering thereafter. Some, even quitted in the middle, showed effort to find an appropriate substitute. It was revealed through this study that college students' assistance to the disabled has attributes for a serious leisure.

This study explored the essential meanings of experiences that married immigrant women living in rural communities have in their community participation process and analyzed the situations and types of their community participation in order to support immigration women's community participation and develop strategies for social welfare by type of community participation. For these purpose, we analyzed story outlines, meanings, types and situations of community participation among married immigrant women who had been over 5 years since their immigration. According to the results of this study, the meaning of married immigrant women's community participation was "Recognize myself as the pioneer of my life and participate in social activities continuously." In the results of analyzing the types of participation, the subjects were classified into 'self directed growth type,' 'self content type,' and 'social support expectation type.' The results of this study are expected to be helpful to understand the life of married immigrant women in rural areas not as 'individuals' otherized in a foreign country but as 'participants' of community that are encountered naturally in daily life, and to develop community level services suitable for such women.

Recent studies of multiple participatory interactive media designs hows that the key element to this area is the participation of the audience. Due to this matter, this paper discusses the categories of the phase and looks into the characteristics of participatory matters to clarify the distinction. The categories that has been mentioned in this paper are multiple participatory types and active participatory types. Based on this matter, research practicing the Mira has been conducted in two separate groups - video and sound, and suggests the solution to the problems that has occurred during the process of implementing the final video system called 'The 360 Project'. The fact that the paper suggests a small range of participatory categories and hasn't come up with a certain analysis to the final outcome appears as a limit. The inadequacy will be supplemented throughout the following paper, hoping there will be improved versions of multiple participatory researches.

인터넷을 통한 다자 참여 게임서비스 분야는 최근 급격한 사용자 증가 추세를 보이고 있다. 그러나 관련 기술의 부족과 개발의 어려움으로 인해 이러한 서비스를 제공하는 웹사이트가 현재 국내에서 소개되고 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 웹브라우저만으로 간편하게 게임을 즐길 수 있는 다자 참여 게임 시스템의 개발을 목적으로 순수 자바 기반의 그룹통신 기술을 이용하여 안정적이고 지속적인 서비스를 제공해주는 플랫폼 독립적인 범용 게임서버 시스템을 설계하고 이를 카드게임센터 개발에 적용하여 쉽게 웹 기반의 다자참여 게임을 개발할 수 있음을 제시하였다. 또한 다양한 종류의 카드게임을 체계적이고 일관성있는 인터페이스로 제공하기 위해 각 종류별 카드게임의 기반이 되는 컴포넌트들을 설계한 후 이를 확장하여 구체적 게임으로 개발하는 방안을 제시하였다.

최근 교사가 교직의 전문성을 신장 유지시켜 나가기 위해 수강하는 교원연수의 한 방법으로 원격연수를 선호하고 있다. 하지만 이러한 원격교원연수의 양적 확대에도 불구하고, 학습자의 적극적인 참여 없이 교수자의 내용 전달 수준에서의 연수가 지속되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 능동적인 참여를 함으로써 연수효과를 높여야 하는데 연수의 양적 증가에만 머무르고 있어 원격연수의 질적 개선을 위한 연수자 참여형 원격연수 전략을 제안해 보고자 한다. 이를 위해 원격교원연수의 개념과 배경에 대해 좀 더 자세히 살펴보고 원격연수의 실태를 분석하여 원격교원연수 전략에 적합한 전략을 제시해 보고자 한다.

본 연구는 영국의 환경농업장려지구(ESAs) 사업의 내용과 이에 대한 농민의 태도를 설문조사를 통하여 분석함으로써 친환경농업정책의 내용과 한계를 파악하고자 하였다. 영국에서 실시하고 있는 환경농업정책은 농민의 자발적인 참여를 원칙으로 하고 있으며, 농민은 정해진 계약에 따라 영농을 하게 되면 일정한 보상금을 받는다. 특정지구에서만 실시하는 사업과 전지역에서 시행되는 사업이 있으며 동일사업에 대한 적용 기준과 보상금 등은 지역마다 상이히다. 이중 가장 대표적인 환경농업정책은 ESAs 사업이다. 이는 농업으로 인해 환경이 민감하게 훼손될 수 있는 지구를 설정하여, 환경 농업을 장려하는 사업이다. 이에 참여함으로써 농민이 받는 장려금은 환경 친화적인 영농을 함으로서 예상되는 농민의 손실분을 고려하여 결정된다. 이와 같은 환경농업정책에 대하여 영국의 농민들의 태도는 적극적이는 못하다. 경영규모가 적은 농민과 지정지구내에서 영농하는 농민들은 비교적 친환경 농업에 적극적이다. 대규모 농장의 경우 경제적 수익 향상을 농업의 주목적으로 생각하고 있어 환경농업정책의 참여에 소극적이다. 따라서 환경농업은 소규모 농장을 중심으로 국지적으로 이루어지기 때문에 자발적인 참여를 전제로 하는 환경농업 정책의 한계로 지적되고 있다.
