This study attempted to explore parents'perceptions on character and character education for their children using a focus group interview method. According to previous research, the concept of character consists of wholeness of three components: relationship, individuality, and morality. This study investigated how parents' perception differ from the widely agreed concept of character. Forty-four mothers and ten fathers participated in eleven focus group interviews. The results showed that parents recognized social relationship and self realization as two most important components of character education of children. However, the parents paid less attention on morality and wholeness. The parents conceptualized character as an alternative to academic achievement. For example, they considered self realization as an alternative to academic achievement. These tendencies could be a barrier in character education in family. Based on these findings, this study recommends that parent education should take more attention on character education in family and help parents develop a balanced understanding on the concept of character.

Character segmentation is a preprocessing step in many offline handwriting recognition systems. In this paper, Chinese characters are categorized into seven different structures. In each structure, the character size with the range of variations is estimated considering typical handwritten samples. The component removal and merge criteria are presented to remove punctuation symbols or to merge small components which are part of a character. Finally, the criteria for segmenting the adjacent characters concerning each other or overlapped are proposed.

Due to the rapid development of mobile devices equipped with cameras, instant translation of any text seen in any context is possible. Mobile devices can serve as a translation tool by recognizing the texts presented in the captured scenes. Images captured by cameras will embed more external or unwanted effects which need not to be considered in traditional optical character recognition (OCR). In this paper, we segment a text image captured by mobile devices into individual single characters to facilitate OCR kernel processing. Before proceeding with character segmentation, text detection and text line construction need to be performed in advance. A novel character segmentation method which integrates touched character filters is employed on text images captured by cameras. In addition, periphery features are extracted from the segmented images of touched characters and fed as inputs to support vector machines to calculate the confident values. In our experiment, the accuracy rate of the proposed character segmentation system is 94.90%, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The effect of cultivation season on the cocoon filament quality of authorized silkworm variety, GoldenSilk was examined with cocoon filament character, reeling character, and fiber character during 3 years. In cocoon filament character, filament length of spring and autumn cocoon was 979 and 879 m, respectively. Cocoon filament weight of spring and autumn cocoon was 33.1 and 26.5 cg, which is lower than that of general bivoltine strain, BaeGokJam. Raw silk percentage of spring and autumn cocoon was 15.65 and 13.77%, respectively. In reeling character, reelability showed similar trend regardless of cultivation season and strain. However, the length and weight of non-broken filament of spring season were slightly higher than those of autumn cocoon. Cultivation season did not affect on the fiber characteristics such as clearness and neatness, lousiness, and degumming loss. In cocoon character, filament length, size, and weight, spring cocoon filament showed higher value than autumn cocoon, but lower than authorized general silkworm varieties. In reeling characteristics, non-broken length and weight showed the similar trends with the cocoon filament character. However, the reelability of GoldenSilk cocoon was not affected by cultivation season. The reelability of GoldenSilk cocoon was also similar with that of authorized general one. Fiber character including clearness and neatness, lousiness, and degumming loss was also similar regardless of the rearing season and different strain.

The purpose of this study was to analyze qualitatively implementation in schools through perception on creativity and character education of teachers who participated in winter training and workshop which the Southeast Regional Center for Creativity and Character Education arranged. The results are as follows. Firstly, teachers responded that they used most often a variety of students' experiential and participant activities associated with the subject in practising creativity and character education. Secondary, they showed a wide variety of responses from 'not to able to measure' to 'to practice in every class' for how often to apply to and practise creativity and character education in class. Thirdly, for the question of 'How do you think environment for creativity and character education in your school', while parts of them responded 'sufficient educational environment', some of them did 'poor or not completely supported environment'. Lastly, most of them utilized teaching materials for creativity and character education periodically or in reconstructing according to instructional form in their class.

이 연구는 인성 중심 교수 모형의 적용이 예비 과학교사의 인성 교육과 과학 교과에서의 인성 교육에 대한 인식에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 예비 과학교사 16명을 대상으로 인성 교육과 과학 교과에서의 인성 교육에 대한 사전 인식조사를 하였고, 1학기 동안의 강좌를 통해 인성 중심 교수 모형인 협력적 문제해결 중심 교수(CoproC) 모형 및 인성 교육에 대한 교육을 하였다. 이후 사후 인식조사를 실시하여 인식 변화를 알아보았다. 연구 결과 예비 과학교사의 일반적인 인성 교육에 대한 사전 인식은 대체로 부정적으로 나타났다. 과학 교과에서의 인성 교육에 대한 인식은 일반적인 인성 교육에 대한 인식 수준보다는 높은 것으로 나타났지만, 이 역시도 과학 교과 자체의 특성으로 인한 역량의 개발보다는 특정 내용 및 소재와 인성 교육을 연결지어 생각하는 경향이 큰 것으로 보였다. 그러나 CoproC 모형에 대한 경험은 예비 과학교사들의 인성에 대한 관점을 역량적 관점으로 변화시켰으며 이에 따라 인성 교육에 대한 인식 변화에 영향을 주었다. 따라서 교사양성기관에서 예비 과학교사를 대상으로 하는 인성 교육 방법에 대한 교육은 인성 교육에 대한 전문성을 신장시켜 장기적으로 학교 현장에 효과적인 인성 교육의 정착에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.
