This study explored the rating tendency of online university learners in their course evaluations and its effects on the course evaluation results. Data including the subjects' demographic information, learning activities, rating tendency, and course evaluation results were collected from 1,098 learners in an online university in the spring semester of 2015. There were three main findings. First, the subjects showed distinctive rating tendencies in participation rates for course evaluation and rating consistency. The participation rates went from one extreme (0%) to the other (100%), and the rating consistency among the test items was highly related to that among the courses as a whole. Second, the subjects showed different tendencies in terms of course evaluation period, rating consistency, and course evaluation results according to demographic information and learning activities. Third, course evaluation results were independently affected by demographic information, learning activities, and rating consistency. The study was meaningful in that it explored learners' rating tendencies concretely and suggested that such tendencies should be considered in analyzing course evaluation results.

The various and serious types of disaster occur everyday and everywhere on the earth. There is no doubt that it is very timely to discuss about the effectiveness and preparedness of disaster. The purpose of this study is to develop a curriculum on the disaster management through reviewing disaster concepts and the disaster management system. For the empirical relevance of the study, researchers participated in a couple or more disaster training program, reviewed references, and consulted to the experts working on action parts in the area. As a result, the 'Integrated Disaster Management System Model (IDMSM)' was designed, in which four dimensions were explained. Then the 'Disaster Curriculum Model (DCM)' was explored with its theoretical framework based on the system model. The developed curriculum is composed of four levels ; the introductory course, the fundamental course, the advanced course, and the expert course. From this DCM, basically the course-outlines of two subjects in the introductory course, 18 subjects in the fundamental course (5 of direct services. 13 of indirect services) were developed. Also each course-outline was explored by its course objective, learning objectives, contents, and its length. Finally to make the most of the results, suggestions are proposed. The governmental considerations on the policy should support the systematic and integrated educational program to practice, appointing 「Disaster School」 or 「Disaster Training Center」 of relevance and accountabilities. The further study should explore the higher levels of the DCM through interdisciplinary efforts, and develop the text aterials. ilities. The further study should explore the higher levels of the DCM through interdisciplinary efforts, and develop the text materials.
