  • As a solution to the wasteful consumption of resources in fashion design, this research aims to develop a process guideline for ZWF Design Methods from an educational perspective. After selecting the Jigsaw Puzzle, Subtraction Cutting, and Layer Methods as representative ZWF Methods, an application experiment was designed to deduct each Method's process, characteristics, needs, and improvement points. Its results were analyzed through action protocol analysis, expert evaluation, and qualitative analysis. Based on the analysis, this research proposed a ZWF guideline and a step-by-step guide suitable to the students' needs. By following the guideline, students can use the chosen ZWF Method to create a planned or an accidental design. In addition, they can practice ZWF effectively step by step in the order of Layer, Jigsaw Puzzle, and Subtraction Cutting. Thus, this research can provide the basis for ZWF education, which can lead to expanded application of ZWF in the future and reduce textile waste.

  • Purpose: This study presents the findings of various research on human intelligence and Multiple Intelligence Theory and suggested the implications of Multiple Intelligence Theory-based approach to the nursing education for the ill children. Method: Research objectives were accomplished by conducting a literature review. The main areas of the literature review included the Multiple Intelligence Theory, and it's application case for the children with learning disorder. Results: Dissatisfaction with traditional IQ tests has led to the development of a number of alternative theories, all of which suggest that intelligence is the result of a number of independent abilities that uniquely contribute to human performance. Among them, Multiple Intelligences Theory led to break intelligence down into at least eight different components: logical, linguistic, spatial, musical, kinesthetic, naturalist, intra-personal and interpersonal intelligences. In addition, Multiple Intelligence Theory and it's application case believes that every topic can be effectively taught and achieved using six entry points framework. Conclusions: The educational implications of Multiple Intelligence Theory in view of the health education and education in the children's hospital school should be considered for the ill children2's better education in a hospital setting.

  • The domestic seismic retrofit guide was primally enacted in 1988, then the mandatory target have been consistently. As a result, the rate of earthquake-resistant is achieved 58.3% in public facilities. On the other hand, the rate of earthquake-resistant is low as 24.8% in education facilities. As education facilities damaged from Gyeong-ju, Po-hang earthquake occurred in South-Korea and the rate of earthquake-resistant is low, the seismic retrofit of existing education facilities got to be ordinary people's interest. Therefore, domestic researchers have been developed seismic retrofit methods which can apply to existing educational facilities, It is expected to become more active in the future. However, it is insufficient to consideration that how far domestic technology has been developed. Therefore, the objective of this study is to measure the level of domestic research through comparative analysis between domestic and foreign researches that seismic retrofit methods which can apply to existing educational facilities.

  • There have been many discussions of models in mathematics education. Although there has been some agreement regarding the importance of clarifying perspectives on the concept and didactic significance of models, there is still no clear consensus on these issues. This study examines articles focused on models in mathematics education in order to clarify theoretical perspectives on models in the research community. The results of this study show that there are three perspectives on models in mathematics education and that these perspectives are closely related to researchers' ontological stances on mathematical knowledge and interpretations of the epistemological role of the model.

  • For preservice teachers' instrumental-to-relational pedagogical content knowledge transformations, this research designed several didactical tasks based on Kinach's cognitive strategies. The researcher identified preservice teachers' understanding about what is a definition and how to teach it. By challenging their fixed ideas about definitions, the researcher could motivate them to embrace the new teaching approach which guides reinvention of definitions. The PCK development was not the simple process of filling their tabular rasa PCK with theories of mathematics education, but the dialectical process of identifying, challenging, changing and extending preservice teachers' existent PCK. This research will contribute to explore new directions of mathematics teachers' PCK development and the method of teacher education.
