Since talent model and core competence based training are in demand, this study aimed to develop proper talent model and major competencies for the Department of Library and Information Sciences at K University and propose appropriate educational subjects based thereon. To this end, related documents were analyzed, expert opinions were obtained, and a consumer survey was conducted, which yielded the following results. First, the talents required at the Department of Library and Information Sciences were broken down into different areas, such as curation, intelligence, service, technology, and professionalism. Second, fifteen major competencies were demanded from these talents, such as collection (in terms of collecting documents and information), organizational, and preservation skills. Third, in order to realize these talents and major competencies, K University has implemented additional subjects in its curriculum. Furthermore, it appears that the librarians' talents and their competencies in the field should be developed at the national level, while NCS core competence based training should also be developed and implemented.

The object of this essay is to apply the Leadership Theory, current interest in Asian Philosophy, to Korean appliance. This is to associate contemporary Leadership Theory with Chosun Confucianism in order to discover the Korean Leadership Prototype, and seek the possibility of applying it for modern usage. The essay uses two analysis models. The tools used for the methodology consists of the personal characteristics of the leader as one axis and ruling out the roles in order to develop the discussion as the other axis. First axis is the process of the leader setting the identity and strengthening the ability to successfully deploy his/her leadership. The second axis is comprised of four specific fields where the leadership is deployed. The four sectors are Self Sector, Relationship Sector, Team Sector and Community Sector. Core values of each sector have been set up and specific competences have been presented. In the Self Sector, $zh{\grave{i}}x{\bar{i}}n$(治心) and $ch{\acute{i}}j{\grave{i}}ng$(持敬) have been set as core values and $l{\grave{i}}zh{\grave{i}}$(立志) and $sh{\acute{i}}x{\bar{i}}n$(實心) as their competences. In the Relationship Sector and Team Sector, circumstances(時宜) and $sh{\acute{i}}sh{\grave{i}}g{\bar{e}}ngzh{\bar{a}}ng$(實事更張) were set as core values, accordingly. Lastly for the Community sector, the core value, 'Ideal Leader and the Visions of and Ideal Community', was conceptualized as '$m{\grave{ui}}m{\acute{i}}nzh{\grave{i}}zh{\grave{i}}$(牧民至治)'. The leadership is then expanded from the Self Sector to the final stage through its processes. Through this research, it can be found out that the Korean Leadership Model is not rigid to just cover a specific point in time or situation, but embraces many contemporary leadership concepts, thus having the characteristics of a comprehensive leadership theory.

The purpose of this study was to design a competence teaching-learning model that could help college students improve their computational thinking among core competences in SW education. A competence teaching-learning model, UDDPAAP (Unplugged-Demonstration-Decomposition-Pattern Recognition-Abstraction-Algorithm-Programming), was designed by analyzing competences of learners with no experience in software coding, by reconstructing DMM, DDD, and DPAA among the five existing SW-based teaching-learning models, and by analyzing unplugged activity and the Bebras challenge computational thinking scale carefully. The unplugged activity partially adapted to instruction for college students and some items chosen from the Bebras challenge computational thinking scale were applied to the existing teaching-learning model. To determine the effects of the study, pretest was conducted in freshmen for computational thinking and self-confidence on the basis of the experience in SW and computer information literacy education, and posttest following instruction applying the UDDPAAP teaching-learning model.

This paper is about an analysis of the result of the survey which is how the use of smartphone affects the creative personality, focused on 4th and 6th grade in Elementary school, by smartphone addiction self-diagnosis and creative personality test. As a result of the analysis, 6th graders were influenced by their possession of smartphone and the degree of one's smartphone addiction on their creative personality. However, the usage period of smartphone did not turn out to affect their creative personality. In addition, none of the factors above, related to students' smartphone usage, influenced the creative personality of 4th graders. Particularly, there was a negative correlation between the level of students' smartphone addiction and the creative personality and it was found that whether the students own a smartphone or not played a crucial role in creative personality rather than the usage period of smartphone. Therefore, students should be properly educated how to use smartphone appropriately and to prevent them from smartphone addiction in order to improve creative personality which is one of the core competences in 21st century.

Four hundreds and eighty-seven dental hygiene students were selected and a questionnaire survey was carried out to find out how emotional intelligence and ego resiliency affect interpersonal skills so that this can be the basis to enhance their interpersonal skills. PASW statistics 18.0 was used for analysis, results are as follows: It was statistically significant that students with higher emotional intelligence and ego resiliency and good interpersonal skills answered that they had high economic standard of living (p<0.001, p<0.05). Students raised by parents showed high emotional intelligence and ego resiliency (p<0.05), same result was shown among religious students too (p<0.05). Students with high ego resiliency showed better interpersonal skills (p<0.001), and ego resiliency influenced more on interpersonal skills than emotional intelligence. Therefore, curriculum to develop emotional intelligence and ego resiliency of dental hygiene students to improve their interpersonal skills which is one of the core competences of dental hygienist needs to be planned in the course.

This study is a narrative review introducing global trends in patient safety education within medical schools and exploring the status of Korean education. Core competences for patient safety include patient centeredness, teamwork, evidence- and information-based practice, quality improvement, addressing medical errors, managing human factors and system complexity, and patient safety knowledge and responsibility. According to a Korean report addressing the role of doctors, patient safety was described as a subcategory of clinical care. Doctors' roles in patient safety included taking precautions, educating patients about the side effects of drugs, and implementing rapid treatment and appropriate follow-up when patient safety is compromised. The Korean Association of Medical Colleges suggested patient safety competence as one of eight essential human and society-centered learning outcomes. They included appropriate attitude and knowledge, human factors, a systematic approach, teamwork skills, engaging with patients and carers, and dealing with common errors. Four Korean medical schools reported integration of a patient safety course in their preclinical curriculum. Studies have shown that students experience difficulty in reporting medical errors because of hierarchical culture. It seems that patient safety is considered in a narrow sense and its education is limited in Korea. Patient safety is not a topic for dealing with only adverse events, but a science to prevent and detect early system failure. Patient safety emphasizes patient perspectives, so it has a different paradigm of medical ethics and professionalism, which have doctor-centered perspectives. Medical educators in Korea should understand patient safety concepts to implement patient safety curriculum. Further research should be done on communication in hierarchical culture and patient safety education during clerkship.

Many countries, including Canada, operate a sonographer license system separately from a radiological technologist license. However, in Korea, radiological technologists perform ultrasound imaging under the guidance of doctors. Therefore, in order to have the opportunity to provide a systematic education by analyzing the job competency of the radiological technologist's ultrasound imaging, based on the Canadian National Competency Profile (NCP) lists, this study measured the job content validity of the job competences and detailed competencies required for performing ultrasonography in Korea. From the results of comparing and analyzing the importance of the core competencies included in the Korean radiological technologist's job competencies and the degree of job performance, the average overall importance was 4.087, the average of overall performance was 3.640, showing that the importance was higher than the performance and that there was a statistically significant difference. In conclusion, 'A Communication', 'B Professional responsibilities', 'D Operation of equipment' and 'G Workplace health and safety' showed high job content validity. However, it is said that as 'C Patient assessment and care', 'E Critical thinking and problem solving', and 'H Image' showed low job content validity, it is necessary to seek ways to strengthen and complement these competencies.
