  • The purposes of this study were to examine the general tendency of knowledge and problem solving abilities of children to cope with climate change and to find out whether there is a difference in the ability to cope with climate change based on the gender and age of young children. For this purpose, 129 children aged 5 and 6 who are attended in day care center in Seoul and Gyeonggi area were selected. We used 10 questions to measure climate change response knowledge modified environment conservation knowledge checklist and used five problem solving situations to measure climate change response problem solving ability modified safety problem solving ability test item. The collected data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, two-way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. As a result, 6-year-old children's knowledge of climate change response and ability to solve climate change problems was higher than that of 5-year-olds. There was no gender difference in knowledge of climate change response and ability to solve climate change. The higher the knowledge level of children's response to climate change, the higher their ability to solve climate change response problems. The results of this study confirmed the association between children's knowledge of climate change response and problem solving ability and showed that a more systematic curriculum for improving knowledge and problem solving ability for preventing climate change needs to be provided to children.

  • There are many difficulties and inconveniences in the process of completing driving education for the disabled. Even in the content of driving education, various unpredictable unexpected situations occur during actual driving. Although education on emergency situations is being conducted in the current driving education course, education to cope with various unexpected situations is insufficient. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a Unity-based driving education simulator for the disabled. Create a simulator by composing scenarios for various unexpected situations using Unity. A simulation is conducted through the test subjects, and the coping score for the existing unexpected situation is evaluated according to the evaluation items. It was confirmed that the evaluation score of the ability to cope with unexpected situations of the proposed system was higher than that of the existing driving education simulator. If the proposed system is used, it can be expected to improve the ability to cope with unexpected situations and improve the quality of life through realistic driving experience.

  • Advanced nuclear power plants are generally large complex systems automated by computers. Whenever a rare plant emergency occurs the plant operators must cope with the emergency under severe mental stress without committing any fatal errors. Furthermore, The operators must train to improve and maintain their ability to cope with every conceivable situation, though it is almost impossible to be fully prepared for an infinite variety of situations. In view of the limited capability of operators in emergency situations, there has been a new approach to preventing the human error caused by improper human-machine interaction. The new approach has been triggered by the introduction of advanced information systems that help operators recognize and counteract plant emergencies. In this paper, the adverse effect of automation in human-machine systems is explained. The discussion then focuses on how to configure a joint human-machine system for ideal human-machine interaction. Finally, there is a new proposal on how to organize technologies that recognize the different states of such a joint human-machine system.

  • As three sides of Korea are surrounded by the sea and it is geographically located at an intersect point for continental and maritime climate, the climate crisis and global warming factors that lead to large-scale natural disasters such as typhoons, floods, and tsunami as well as disasters and damage to humans are increasing due to rapid urbanization and industrialization. Therefore, this study measured the ability of people to cope with disaster in students studying emergency rescue who will play a central role in safety and casualty control in disaster areas in order to figure out the factors that will influence their overall ability. As a result, the following things were discovered: Those who had the experience of listening to information on how to cope in a disaster scored significantly higher in disaster coping scores than those who did not. In comparison with subjects who responded that they were not satisfied with their emergency rescue training at school, those who responded that they were satisfied with their education scored significantly higher in their disaster coping scores. In comparison with subjects who responded negatively to the questions on experience in emergency rescue training as an extracurricular program, those who responded affirmatively to the questions were evaluated as significantly higher in their disaster coping scores. This study suggests that specific strategies can be taken and are needed to improve the ability to cope with disasters in students who are studying emergency rescue.
