  • Food habit forming the basis for a lifetime of food and nutrient intake is established in early childhood and has an effect to the child's growth, sociality, and obesity. A variety of nutrition screening tools exists for assessing the health and nutrition status of children such as the Growth Curve, for determining if growth is appropriate. Body mass index(BMI) as a more reliable index of overweight to prevent childhood obesity, and Nutrition Quotient(NQ) and eating behaviors questionnaire for young children and parents to estimate their nutrient intake adequate or not. Such tools are mainly used by health practitioners, such as doctor and dietitian to provide nutrition intervention services to children at risk, especially and are not easy to use for general parents, who need assessment at any time and at any place. We propose Growth Assistance System for infants and children, which is possible to assess their physical condition, nutritional status, and eating behavior integrated. To be convenient and portable, it is implemented over the smartphone as an application. The system offers the growth charts, the BMI curves, NQ and eating behavior questionnaire to take a monitoring and the functionalities operate well. We hereby expect this system support the normal growth and development of infants and young children. And also support for the health practitioner (dietitians and nutritionists) to take a role in providing nutrition counseling and education to children needing nutrition services.

  • The present world is full of challenges and opportunities for the women at work. Every woman works hard for academic growth and professional development. For the same reason they also face challenges every day such as stresses, tensions, problems and competitions. When these factors exceed above the strengths, the capabilities of a woman start drowning under stress. Stress is generally thought negative characteristic, but stress or tension maintained up to some level is necessary and effective towards work done at job. This paper covers the study relationship between job stressor and female teacher's performance. The study was carried out in Government Colleges of District Hyderabad, Pakistan. The teacher student relationship was selected as a stressor for female teachers. The study is descriptive in nature followed by method of correlation. A five point "Likert Scale" was developed to collect the data from the sample size of 158 college teachers drawn randomly and the collected data was assessed quantitatively. The relationship between the "teacher student" (as an indicator of job stress) and "female teachers' performance" was calculated by Pearson Correlation formula. The findings of the study show the significant correlations between the teacher student relationship and job stress in female teachers' performance where it is found that the stressor caused the poor Physical and Mental health of female teachers working in colleges.

  • Prevalence of obesity in Korean children and adolescents has dramatically increased since the last 10-20 years. It is important to initiate prevention efforts early in childhood because prevalence of obesity in adolescence is the strongest predictor of its prevalence in adulthood. Intrauterine life, infancy, and preschool years may comprise the critical periods that are essential for the long-term regulation of energy balance therefore, obesity-prevention strategies should be initiated in utero and continued throughout childhood and adolescence. Families with high-risk children should be provided early education about maintaining normal weight. Encouraging physical activity and, especially, avoiding inactivity, are key challenges in the prevention of future obesity. Schools should be primarily involved in educating parents to discourage their children from excessively watching TV or playing computer games and eating unhealthy snacks and food. The involvement of medical practitioners is also important, especially, in the case of obese parents, obesity prevention strategies should be promoted from the first visit of pregnant women to the physicians. Health professionals can also be involved in obesity prevention because they are ideally equipped to identify young children at risk of obesity. Community and nation-wide efforts to increase awareness and promote environments that encourage physical activity and healthy nutrition are required.

  • The art psychotherapy expert system is a computer system which helps to analyse one's psychology through pictures. However we need a standard criterion because the psychology, the target of the art psychotherapy, does not only have a ambiguous criterion but also a vast range. We're going to suggest a criterion in the field of the art psychotherapy by constructing systematic database through knowledge acquirement of the art psychotherapy expert system. In this study we introduce a system which enables systematic classification and confirmation of symptoms according to mental analyses. The suggested system enables confirmation of a classical structure and systematic classification of knowledges through conversation by extracting nouns through sentence analysis from the knowledge of descriptive form based on the clinical purpose of sentence analysis.

  • With the advancement of information and communications technologies and the universal dissemination of smartphones, ICT-utilizing education is also getting the limelight. In the recent ICT-utilizing education, teachers and learners produce massive digital data by consulting massive information on the Internet, and the produced data is filtered in the process of education and utilized for the current and next educational programs. In order to construct the data well-suited for education from massive data available on the Internet, it is important to verify the quality of the educational data. To this end, we propose an educational website that can provide the data satisfying visual needs demanded by learners in terms of utilizing a digital curation system. In this paper, we also present a design and implementation of the website that non-ICT majors can easily use, which in turn enables them to conduct the education of creative personality utilizing image and video contents.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the teaching competency for software education for young children. Teaching competency was derived through literature study and Delphi survey of expert groups. The derived competences are composed of 'selection of software education objectives-goals and educational contents', 'software curriculum planning and implementation' and 'evaluation and feedback of software curriculum'. The derived competencies were found to be 15 competencies in a total of 3 competencies groups. The relationship between the derived competencies and previous studies was discussed and implications were presented. The teaching competency derived from this study can be used for teacher education and instructional practice.

  • Ad-hoc 지오캐스팅 프로토콜 목적은 특별한 지오캐스팅영역(Geocasting region)에 위치한 노드들의 그룹에 패킷데이터(Geo-packet)를 전송하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 Ad-hoc 기반의 이동네트워크 환경에서 지오캐스트 서비스를 지원하는 기존 연구의 데이터 전송경로의 비 최적화, 빈번한 지오캐스트 전송 트리의 재구성으로 인한 오버헤드(Overhead), 서비스 단절의 문제를 해결하기 위해 이동 형태 기반의 가변 지오캐스팅 기법을 제안한다. 가변 지오캐스팅 기법은 서비스 범위를 목적지 노드의 이동성(Mobility)에 따라 가변적으로 설정하고 자원예약 기법과 다양한 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안된 지오캐스트 기법을 성능 평가하였다.

  • 본 연구는 대학교육에서 학습자 주도수업에 대표적으로 활용되는 PBL-교수학습방법을 SNS기반 온라인 플랫폼에서의 과제수행을 통해 해결하는 PBL-수업모형을 개발하는 것을 목표로 한다. 이를 위해 선행연구 및 이론탐색을 통해 PBL-수업설계에 대한 선행연구를 고찰하고, 적용 가능한 수업모형 및 교육내용을 선정하여 기초내용을 구성한 후 3인의 교육공학 전문가와 5인의 대학교수를 대상으로 FGI 인터뷰 방법을 통하여 연구결과를 도출한다. 과거 PBL-교수학습방법을 적용한 수업설계 들이 모의수행이나 발표 후 토론에 한정되었던 것에 반해 본 연구에서는 SNS기반 온라인 플랫폼에 직접 적용하는 매체제작 및 커뮤니티 활동을 포함하는 수업활동이 도출 되었으며, 실행 가능한 수업모형 개발을 위해 대상자 인터뷰와 분석을 통해 이를 위한 교수학습방법을 설정할 것이다. 본 연구를 통해 제시될 SNS기반 온라인 플랫폼을 활용한 PBL-학습모형은 이후 고등교육기관의 교수학습모형 개발을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것이다

  • 본 연구에서는 유아의 스마트폰 과의존 유형을 파악하고 과의존의 차이를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2019년 스마트폰 과의존실태조사에서 자료 중 유아 992명을 대상으로 분석하였다. 전체 유아 중 고위험군 1.9%, 잠재적위험군 19.2%, 일반사용자군 78.9%로 나타났다. 스마트폰 과의존 유형에 따른 과의존의 하위 변인인 조절실패, 현저성, 문제적 결과가 차이가 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 유아들이 스마트폰 이용이 증가하고 있는 시점에서 유아의 올바른 스마트폰 사용을 위한 교육과 과의존에 관한 예방 방안이 필요함을 시사해 준다는 점에서 본 연구의 의의를 찾을 수 있다. 또한 유아교육현장에서 유아가 건강한 성장을 도모할 수 있도록 과의존 예방을 위한 가정환경 점검 및 부모교육에 관한 기초적인 연구 자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
