  • Probiotics are actively being studied for their efficacious anticancer, anticholesterol, and antidiabetic properties. As novel probiotic strains are being developed continuously, new strain-specific safety issues may be reported. Therefore, a procedure for the safety evaluation of probiotic strains is needed. In this study, we investigated the current status of domestic and foreign guidelines for the evaluation of safety of probiotics and suggested a general probiotic safety evaluation process. In other countries, the guidelines for probiotic evaluation are provided and managed separately. However, in Korea, general guidelines are provided regarding the use of functional ingredients, and specific guidelines for the use of probiotics are lacking. A review step based on the characteristics of the probiotics has been introduced in the procedure for safety evaluation of probiotics. Additionally, it has been suggested that the safety evaluation process should consider the results of the functional and genomic analysis for strain identification. Moreover, the factors to be evaluated are presented separately for the notified and non-notified strains. The suggested evaluation procedure may ensure the safety of probiotics, thereby promoting enhanced utilization of probiotics as functional products.

  • This study is for the purpose of studying the validity of the construction of items and grading of the evaluation table at clinical practice used as the method of evaluation when clinical practice of Dept. of Dental Technology. 205 dental technicians in 4 cities were questioned to analyze the relation between items of the evaluation table at clinical practice and its grading. The collected materials were inspected by SAS V8 for Windows. The results are as follows: 1. Making up all the items and grading seem to be appropriate because they had the marks more than midium(more than 3.28). 2. Making up detailed items and grading seem to be trusted because they had the marks more than 3.30. 3.The significance level of the relation between items of the evaluation at clinical practice and its grading by t-inspection is p<0.0001 and so it appears to be meaningful. 4. It proved to be meaningful in result of regression analysis of the influence on the construction of the evaluation at clinical practice and its grading. With this result, further study is needed for the better methods of the evaluation in its adjustment and graduated grading among the items.

  • This study is a preliminary study to develop an evaluation framework necessary for evaluating the DataON platform. The first objective is to examine expert perceptions of the level of DataON platform construction. The second objective is to evaluate the importance, stability, and usability of DataON platform features over OpenAIRE features. The third objective is to derive weights from the evaluation perspective for future DataON platform evaluation. The fourth objective is to examine the preferences of experts in each evaluation perspective and to derive unbiased evaluation criteria. This study used a survey method for potential stakeholders of the DataON platform. The survey included 12 professionals with at least 10 years of experience in the field. The 57 overall functions and services were measured at 3.1 out of 5 for importance. Stability was -0.07 point and usability was measured as -0.05 point. The 42 features and services scored 3.04 points in importance. Stability was -0.58 points and usability was -0.51 points. In particular, the stability and usability scores of the 42 functions and services provided as of 2018 were higher than the total functions were, which is attributed to the stable and user-friendly improvement after development. In terms of the weight of the evaluation point, the collection quality has the highest weight of 27%. Interface usability is then weighted 22%. Subsequently, service quality is weighted 19%, and finally system performance efficiency and user feedback solicitation are equally weighted 16%.

  • The purpose of this study is to develop evaluation indicators for academic libraries in Korea. The evaluation model developed in this research consists of three elements:(1) Confirmation of evaluation methods, procedures and criteria,(2) Development of qualitative and quantitative evaluation indicators, and(3) Assessment of the applicability and feasibility of those indicators. Evaluation indicators were developed to measure a basic state, a common use of library resources, specialized services, and user satisfaction for academic libraries. To test the feasibility and applicability of those evaluation indicators, a pilot assessment of academic libraries was conducted in 2010.

  • Effective and Economic game evaluation before game publishing is very important for game development company. In this paper, we designed and developed an effective web based game evaluation system according to three major game genre including MMORPG, FPS, and web game. The proposed evaluation model consists of five evaluation items such as game interest, competitiveness, technology, earning power, and market value and has common evaluation items and independent ones according to game genre. To reflect characteristics of each game genre, we divided evaluation items into common evaluation elements and individual ones according to game genre. We applied the proposed system to two real games of a game development company and showed the result.

  • This study is about evaluation by users and evaluation cases centering packaging and containers for Universal Design products which are currently being used. This study also shows standards of evaluation for Universal Design items which are required for Universal Design and packaging. I also conducted a case study in Japan as a preceding case to suggest a viable guideline in time of displaying design. As a result, I could grasp parts to be improved and problems regarding standards of guideline for evaluation and evaluation methods which are necessary for developing goods by user evaluation. In addition, as shown by advanced cases, I suggested the necessity that the Universal Design should be fairly reflected in all design parts because of an increase in cases of packaging and containers corresponding to product identification items in the design evaluation division.

  • Based on the student evaluation of teaching from 'A' university where students are graded by relative performance, we conducted a research on the effect of course characteristics in student evaluation of teaching. The results show that the score of student evaluation of teaching seems to be higher for those classes with more proportion of male students, higher grades, and smaller class sizes. From these results, we suggest an evaluation model which can control the effect of grade and sex. Also we illustrate the performance of the evaluation model by using a case study.
