The purpose of the study is to identify the influence of learning participation on learning outcomes in programming courses. Based on the literature review, learning participation is composed of three sub components: participation in preview, class, and review. Learning outcomes are categorized by academic achievement, learning satisfaction, and learning motivation. A survey was conducted with 267 students enrolled in programming courses from three IT departments at Myongji College. Findings revealed that participation in review and participation in class predicted all sub components of learning outcomes. Participation in review was found to have a greater effect on learners' achievement and participation in class was found to have a greater impact on learning satisfaction and motivation. However, the results showed that participation in class was not an influential factor for learning outcomes. Implications for enhancing learning participation and suggestions for future research are also discussed.

Method : The subjects were 309 staff nurses at two general hospitals in Seoul. Data were collected with self-reported questionnaires and analyzed by SPSS-PC+10.0 for descriptive analysis, ANOVA, stepwise multiple regression, factor analysis. Results : The subjects exhibit significantly highest level of 'the participation in decision making factor'. The mean score of 'control coping strategies' was higher than 'avoid coping strategies'. The mean scores of social support and stress responses were high. The main factor that affected the stress responses was 'the job characteristic factor' and it was explained 23.0% out of the total variance of the stress responses. Also, it would be explained 42.6% out of the total variance of the stress responses with 'the control coping strategies, work overload factors, social support, and participation in decision making factors'.

Modal participation factor(MPF) is essential to analyze structural response under earthquake load. MPF of real structure differs from that of analytic mathematical model due to the error induced from analytical assumption and construction. In this study, a identification method is proposed to calculate the MPF of real structure based on H∞ optimal model reduction. The MPF is obtained from the relationship between observability, controllability matrix of realized from S.I. and typical 2-degree state space model. The proposed method is verified thorough examples.
