  • PURPOSE: Stoke is one of most common disabling conditions and it is still lacking of measuring patient's functioning level. The aim of the study was to develop Korean language version of stroke impact scale 3.0. METHODS: Korean version of stroke impact scale 3.0 was developed in idiomatic modern Korean with a standard protocol of multiple forward and backward translations and an expert reviews to achieve equivalence with the original English version. Interviews with clinicians who were currently managing patients with stroke were also conducted for language evaluation. A reliability test was performed to make final adaptation using a pre-final version. To assess the reliability of the translated questionnaire, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated for each domain of the scale. RESULTS: Thirty subjects (16 male, 14 female) aged from 20 to 75 years old participated to review the translated questionnaire. Reliability of each domain of the questionnaire was found to be good in strength (ICC=0.74), ADL (ICC=0.81), mobility (ICC=0.90), hand function (ICC=0.80) and social participation (ICC=0.79), communication (ICC=0.77) with total (ICC=0.76). However, domains of memory and thinking (ICC=0.66), and emotion (ICC=0.27) and showed poor reliability. CONCLUSION: This study indicates that the Korean version of SIS 3.0 was successfully developed. Future study needed for obtaining the validity of the Korean version of SIS 3.0.

  • Many papers point out that the e-Learning is one of the most important industries, and the effect on other industries can be more powerful than any other business. Therefore, we think about social, cultural, industrial and technological effect of the e-Learning in order to enlarge industry scale as well as educational performances. In many cases of developed countries, various kinds of study have been performed for the e-Learning quality assurance because quality of the e-learning should operate on effective and efficient learning and continuous market development of education industries. The e-Learning quality assurance has import function not only for learning contents reusability like a SCORM and metadata but also for learning system, solution and service operation, so activities for the quality assurance should consider of cultural and tactical approach when it is applied in the e-learning business. In this paper, we present the concept, domain and purpose of the e-Learning quality assurance. Furthermore, this paper proposes the process and methodology in order to make the quality assurance standard model which is consist of 6 phase such as Environment Research, Needs Analysis, Framework, Metrics, Development and Implementation, Evaluation and Feedback through the analysis and comparison of pre-studied worldwide quality control, management and assurance documents.

  • Although built-environment has not only function but also socio-cultural meanings, the latter is neglected in the modernism. People don't have the identity of their place because they can't communicate with environment. Therefore, expressing the socio-curtural meanings in landscape is one of main issues after the modern era. The meanings of phenomena can be analyzed by the Semiology based on Structurism, the methodology which has been developed in Linguistics and Anthropology since 1900's. The purpose of this study is to adapt Helmslev's model that can effectively explain the meanings of built-environment and interpret the Koreaness, one of important meanings in contemporary urban park, Paris park. The following methods are used for achieving the purpose. 1. Adaptation of the Helmslev's model for interpreting the urban park. 2. Interpretation of the Paris park. 3. Making the types of interpretion of Paris park. The results are as followings: 1. Helmslev's model can explain the content and expression of the urban park in denotation and connotation. 2. Th socio-cultural meanings of Paris park are the relationship of France, Yan and Yin theory, philosophy of Samjae, king's authority. And they are expressed in the pattern of paving, the shape of mounds, fountain, and pond, a picture of the wall, colours of lightings and columns, and a mark of bollards.

  • The Wallace Collection in London (one of the national museums in the UK) has a gallery dedicated to conservation related displays. As well as permanent displays on the manufacturing techniques and materials of artifacts, there is a specially designed space for temporary conservation exhibitions. Through the example of the current conservation exhibition at the Wallace Collection and similar exhibitions and displays from other museums in the UK, this paper will study how the relationship and communication between the conservation profession and the general public have changed, from conservation as a behind-the-scenes and little-known activity to a closer interaction with the public and as a direct educational tool. The general function of a museum can be seen to have evolved from providing passive information to its visitors to offering more active and various forms of education. Conservation has developed with this change towards more awareness of the profession and its role in the preservation of cultural heritage through public outreach programs and displays.

Men and women, both young and old, took pan in it in the belief that crossing a bridge, or bridges, back and forth, the same number of times as the number of years they were old, on this night would prevent all types of leg and foot ailments from occurring throughout the coming year. The practice was carried on mainly around the Seoul central region of Korea. Though it has now largely disappeared, it has been reatores in the Yeoju area. According to the Korean almanac and other chronicles, it was once practiced throughout the land. It is in the preserved was brige-treading festival of yeoju, however, that both the original form, transmission, and function are clarified and brought to light.

Accompanied by folksongs, music, and dance, this was not a religions festival in the strict sense, but rather an annual custom filled with mirth and merriment that formed an integral part of Korean folk culture.

  • Ryuseo(類書) is a type of traditional books and seems like today's encyclopedia. For compilation of this book, the contents with good ideas and the improvement in method of editing are very important. The process of development, basic form, reception and transformation, the method of succession in today were investigated with the traditional Ryuseo through this study. In Korea, the publishing of this book in the beginning was just republishing of Chinese Ryuseo. During the reign of king Sunjo of Chosun dynasty, Ryuseo for Korean, "Daedongeunbugunok(大東韻府群玉)" was published. Also the basic form of Ryuseo had to be changed in this period. Kimyuk increased practical use of this book by summarizing "Samunryuchui(事文類聚)". The first complete Korean Ryuseo was "Kosachalyo(故事撮要)" that was published in 1554, king Myungjong. In the book was included contents about diplomacy and daily life by Eosukkwun. In 1771, king Youngjo, "Kosashinseo(故事新書)" was published. It had more information about actual life than Kosachalyo. Ryuseo should be considered with two things when it is read by modern readers. One is the development of material for study and another is to ensure the readers. So Ryuseo could be a good basic material for developing contents of internet. Reproduction of this book by new one should be considered with increasing its function. Because reforming classical material by digital one is necessary for daily life in today.
