Background: Effective policy implementation is essential for a healthy workplace. The Ryan-Kossek 2008 model for work-life policy adoption suggests that supervisors as gatekeepers between employer and employee need to know how to support and communicate benefit regulations. This article describes a workplace intervention on a national employee benefit, Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and evaluates the effectiveness of the intervention on supervisor knowledge, awareness, and experience with FMLA. Methods: The intervention consisted of computer-based training (CBT) and a survey measuring awareness and experience with FMLA. The training was administered to 793 county government supervisors in the state of Oregon, USA. Results: More than 35% of supervisors reported no previous training on FMLA and the training pre-test revealed a lack of knowledge regarding benefit coverage and employer responsibilities. The CBT achieved: (1) a significant learning effect and large effect size of d = 2.0, (2) a positive reaction to the training and its design, and (3) evidence of increased knowledge and awareness regarding FMLA. Conclusion: CBT is an effective strategy to increase supervisors' knowledge and awareness to support policy implementation. The lack of supervisor training and knowledge of an important but complex employee benefit exposes a serious impediment to effective policy implementation and may lead to negative outcomes for the organization and the employee, supporting the Ryan-Kossek model. The results further demonstrate that long-time employees need supplementary training on complex workplace policies such as FMLA.

The purpose of this study is to review the advanced researches of the library tour, to extract the educational properties of library tour, and to propose the pedagogical meanings of library tour by reinterpreting the library tour based on pedagogical theories and foundations. As the result of this study, the extracted educational properties of library tour are like these: experience, media, explanation, interpretation, interaction. The educational properties are extracted through the related theories and researches. The pedagogical foundations based on the educational properties of library tour are like these: 1) John Dewey's experience theory. 2) Dale & Dwyer's teaching & learning media theories. 3) Bruner's educational theory. It's expected that this study will help the education librarians to plan, develop, and implement the face to face or virtual library tour program based on the pedagogical foundations for the effective library education.

This study suggests that the contents and methods focusing on the leamer's geographical experience of everyday life and environments, are very effective for teaching and teaming in geography subject matter. The contents have to be selected and structurized from private geographies about their region of everyday life for teaming abstractive and scientific concepts of geography. Scientific concepts of geography, i.e. geographical concepts become 'scope'for selecting the contents and these systematic structure substitutes 'sequence'. The criteria by which selected contents of teaching and teaming based on everyday life may consist of three elements: region as leamer's place for everyday life; concrete experience of the place; and leamer's changing geographical experiences.

PKI(Public Key Infrastructure)-based information certification technology has some limitations to be universally applied to mobile banking services, using smart phones, since PKI is dependent on the specific kind of web browser, Internet Explorer. OTP(One Time Password) is considered to be a substitute or complementary service of PKI, but it still shows low acceptance rate. Therefore, in this research, we analyze why OTP has not been very popular, and provide useful implications of making OTP more extensively and frequently used in the mobile environment. Perceived security of OTP was set as a higher-order construct of integrity, confidentiality, authentication, and non-repudiation. Research findings show that security awareness and perceived security of OTP is positively associated, and the relationship between perceived security and trust on OTP is statistically significant. Also, trust is positively related to intention to use OTP continuously.
