Purpose: There is increasing attention to smart-learning as a new education paradigm. The purpose of this study was to identify the level of intention to use smart-based Continuing Nurse Education (CNE) and factors influencing intention to use smart-based CNE. Methods: Participants were 486 nurses from 14 organizations, including 12 hospitals, a nurses association, and an office of education. Data were collected from November 5 to 18, 2014 using self-report questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The mean score for intention to use smart-based CNE was 6.34 out of 10. The factors influencing intention to use smart-based CNE were nursing informatics competency, current unit career, and smartphone addiction. These variables explained 10% of variance in intention to use smart-based CNE. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that efforts to enhance the nursing informatics competency of nurses could increase usage rate of smart-based CNE. The CNE policy makers will find this study very useful and the findings of this study will help to provide insight into the best way to develop smart-based CNE.

In this research, we applied the problem-based learning (PBL) on a college computer system programming course and analyzed how it affected students' academic achievement and job essential skills. After course contents analysis, we divided the course into three subsections and provided three problems for each subsection. For measuring the effect on academic achievement, we compared with scores of the previous year's students. For job essential skills, we used Korea collegiate essential skills assessment (K-CESA) operated by Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education & Training. Students took the test twice before and after the course. Results showed that PBL has positive effects on both academic achievement and job essential skills.

The study aims to gain information for developing educational contents to support LPSMB(low-performing students with multicultural backgrounds) through the survey on their personal characteristics, attitudes related to learning, and learning environment. We analyzed a survey of 2,091 students from 200 schools who were low-performing Korean students, LPSMBs, and normally performing students with multicultural backgrounds. Normally performing students with multicultural backgrounds showed statistically significant higher scores on most questionnaires than low-performing Korean students and LPSMBs. However, normally performing students with multicultural backgrounds and LPSMs showed statistically significant lower scores on identity and social relationships. LPSMBs showed lower scores on parents' culture than normally performing students with multicultural backgrounds. We suggested how to support LPSMBs' learning and learning environment based on the survey results.

Purpose : This study was performed to examine study on the relationship between communication ability and teamwork competency of EMT students. Method : The results were based on the revised questionnaires, which can be applicable to EMT from the using questionnaires by Canary et $al^{10)}$ and $Bu^{11)}$, with a sample of 163 students consisting of 55 first, 48 second and third 60, conducted on October 10, 2008. Data were analyzed using SPSS 14.0 in terms of means, $x^2-test$, standard deviation, one way ANOVA, and correlation. Results : The communication competency was statistically significantly different between three groups. In the area of adaptability, there were statistically significant difference between three groups. In the area of effectiveness, there were no statistically significant difference between three groups. In the area of appropriateness, there were statistically significant difference between three groups. The cooperative learning was statistically significant difference between three groups. In the area of team conversation, there were statistically significant difference between three groups. In the area of cooperation and collision management, there were statistically significant difference between three groups. In the area of cooperation and collision management team decision making, there were statistically significant difference between three groups. As a results of correlation analysis, there was correlation of communication and cooperative learning. Conclusion : This results showed that education of communication and cooperative learning must be instructed to EMT students. Consequently, It is necessary to make a further application tool of EMT.

Web based lecture & learning system has changed the conventional learner-oriented educational environment by adding mutual interactions. From the learner competency-based education. the necessity of the learner-oriented education and the mutual cooperation among the learners has been increased. A project-based education system will achieve a progressive development in understanding and the competency for the job to be performed by the mutual interactions between the learners and between the learners and the lecturer. This paper presents the project-based learning system in order to facilitate and achieve the goals of the industrial business processing system implementations in the ongoing popular Internet environments. In the proposed project-based system, the lecturer presents a problem to be solved and leads the education as a supervisor The learner can maximize the efficiency for study by taking advantage of the learner-oriented comparison study and the patterning.

The study applied chemistry classes based on Collaborative Problem-Solving for Competency(CoProC) Instruction Model to 86 high school seniors and recognized the resulting changes in Character Competence through character competence test, analysis of argumentation, and analysis of reflective writing. In addition, the analysis of the correlation between the assessment results showed what each evaluation method meant to assess Character Competence. The study found that the average score of Character Competence rose in all three assessments, but differences were found in the detailed factors. Character competency test is meaningful in helping students participate with a sense of mastery of learning as a self-evaluation, and the analysis of the argumentation process seems to be an appropriate evaluation method to evaluate the Character Competence shown by students' words and actions through course evaluations. An analysis of reflective writing showed the advantage of being able to analyze Character competencies that are difficult to show in action by looking back on the entire course of learning. In addition, given that the correlation between the three assessment results is very low, it is expected that the three Character competency assessment methods will be conducted together to obtain detailed and comprehensive information on students' character competencies.

Purpose: This study was conducted to design and implement a fundamental nursing practice based on flipped learning and to examine the effects. Methods: Participants were 57 students who were taking the fundamental nursing practice course at D university in N city. The study included processes of instructional design, action/effects and reflection. Data were analyzed using paired t-test with the SPSS/WIN 23.0. Results: In the instructional design stage, the class consisted of 3 parts: outside class (pre-learning), inside class (assessment, collaborative practice, peer review, reflection), after-class (self-directed practice, feedback). In the action/effects stage, the flipped learning was applied for 15 weeks according to the instructional design and then the effects of flipped learning were evaluated. Students showed a significant improvement in self-directed learning ability (t=-3.56, p=.001) and critical thinking disposition after the class (t=-3.72, p<.001). Finally, in the reflection stage, the researchers examined whether the four pillars of flipped learning occurred. Conclusion: Findings indicate that flipped learning applied in fundamental nursing practice is effective in improving self-directed learning ability and critical thinking disposition. The action research method was a useful way to foster professor's educational competency as well as to verify effects of a new nursing education method.

While the affective aspects are emphasized in the current mathematics curriculum in Korea, it is just indicated a superficial degree. Therefore in this study, based on consideration for internal representational system theories, a dynamic viewpoints of self-system processes, socio-constructivist perspectives, and motivation theories, we discuss the meaning of affective competency, the motive of mathematics learning, mathematical identity of students, social environments and affective experiences, then we suggest an affective frame in mathematical learning. Hereby, we suggest what should be considered in affect instructions and the alternative goal of mathematical education in affective aspects.
