As the attracting foreign student has become a very important strategy, detailed researches on their college selection and their satisfaction with college life are needed. Especially it is necessary to distinguish ordinary international students and those who take classes in Local Education Centers (LEC) before coming to Korea. The central purpose of this study is to identify how the two types of students differ in their perception of college selection factors and what factors affect their satisfaction with college life. A total of 186 international students participated in the study. It was found that the most important college selection factor of the pre-educated LEC students was 'obtaining academic ability through online classes and transfer of credit hours'. Second, these students reported that the two influential factors for their satisfaction with college life were 'quality of education' and 'cultural experience program'. Third, it was found that the major college selection factors influencing ordinary international students' college life satisfaction were 'expertise of faculty', 'transfer of credit through curriculum links', and 'recommendation from teachers at home country'. Fourth, the major factors affecting the pre-educated LEC students' satisfaction with college life were 'KSL classes at LE's', 'expertise of faculty', and 'financial aid system'.

This study examines the relationship between public service satisfaction, trust in local government, and community satisfaction. Previous studies on community satisfaction have insufficiently dealt with public services or trust in local government and have not fully conducted an integrated analysis. To close these knowledge gaps, this study includes public service satisfaction that was constructed with the subcomponents economic support, education, and public safety and trust in local government as factors affecting community satisfaction. Moreover, this study verified the mediating effect of trust in local government between public service satisfaction and community satisfaction. Online surveys were carried out with 980 residents in Jeonbuk, Korea, and structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed. The results indicated that public service satisfaction affected community satisfaction directly or indirectly. In particular, the satisfaction with public safety influenced community satisfaction both directly and indirectly. In addition, trust in local government had a mediating effect between all sub-components of public service satisfaction and community satisfaction. Today, regional disparity between urban and rural areas in developing countries is widening. As a result, residents in rural areas are gradually moving to urban areas. Therefore, rural areas need to increase the community satisfaction of their residents. In this regard, this study suggests important policy implications for community satisfaction enhancement.

본 연구는 서울지역 초, 중학교에 재학 중인 자녀를 둔 학부모를 대상으로 학부모의 자녀교육노력이 교사신뢰에 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보았고, 학부모의 자녀교육노력이 교사신뢰에 미치는 영향에서 학부모의 학교신뢰와 지역교육만족의 매개효과를 검증하였다. 이를 통해 얻은 주요 연구결과는 첫째, 학부모의 자녀교육노력은 교사신뢰에 정적(+)인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 학부모의 자녀교육노력과 교사신뢰 관계에서 학교신뢰의 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 학부모의 자녀교육노력이 교사신뢰에 직접적인 영향을 미치기도 하지만 학교신뢰를 통해서 간접적으로 교사신뢰에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 의미한다. 마지막으로 학부모의 자녀교육노력과 교사신뢰 관계에서 지역교육만족의 매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 학부모의 자녀교육노력이 교사신뢰에 직접적인 영향을 미치기도 하지만 지역교육만족을 통해서 간접적으로 교사신뢰에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 의미한다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 교육적, 복지적 측면에서의 함의에 대해 논의하였다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the importance of policy for the promotion of forest education and establish a basis that can be applied to it, which considers citizens' opinions on forest education. According to the importance analysis of forest education policy, program development topped the list with 0.368 points, followed by the application of forest education experts, which scored 0.262 points. Cooperation as well as the supplementing and improvement of facilities yielded 0.238 and 0.132 points, respectively. Concerning the attention and recognition of forest education, only 8% of the respondents had low attention and 19% low or very low recognition; 75% said forest education was very important. Regarding program satisfaction, 76.5% were satisfied with the profitability of content and 77% agreed with the purpose consistency. In terms of the appropriateness of forest education, 79.2% and 81% were content with the period and method, respectively. Finally, 82.7% were satisfied with the participation program. This study aims to share basic data and promotion plans derived from the analysis of policy importance and satisfaction with forest education focused on adults. Domestic forest education is still in the early stages, led by Korea Forest Service. In the long term, local governments must participate in forest education policy positively despite limited budgets and human resources. The results of this study can be utilized as data for forest education promotion plans. If the case studies of other local governments and preference analysis by age group are followed up, they will help ensure that forest education evolves through cooperation with people and organizations in the relevant zone.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to identify factors influencing communication satisfaction between geriatric caregivers and older adults in urban-rural complex communities. The ultimate goal was to design local community educational programs and policies to enhance communication satisfaction among geriatric caregivers and improve the quality of care services for older adults. Methods: To identify factors influencing communication satisfaction between elderly caregivers and older adults, a survey titled "CCEP: Assessment of Communication Status between Elderly Care Service Providers and Recipients" was conducted from February to July 2020, focusing on rural-urban complex areas. The survey was administered based on providers of elderly healthcare services. The survey targeted 131 respondents involved in providing care services for older adults. The dependent variable of this study was the communication satisfaction reported by elderly caregivers in their interactions with the elderly. The independent variables included perceptions of older adults, factors associated with communication difficulties, and communication efforts. Additionally, gender, working environment, working experience, and the proportion of face-to-face interactions with older adults during caregiving were controlled for the hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Results: The analysis revealed that communication efforts with older adults significantly influenced communication satisfaction (β=.09, p<0.01). However, perceptions of the elderly and communication hindrance factors did not have a significant impact on communication satisfaction among geriatric caregivers. Conclusion: Effective communication between geriatric caregivers and older adults is crucial for identifying and meeting the needs and demands of caregiving services, and it plays a vital role in overall caregiving service satisfaction. To enhance communication skills and satisfaction among geriatric caregivers and ensure the appropriate fulfillment of elderly care needs in the local community, the development of community-centered, specialized health communication programs and other initiatives will be necessary in the future.

본 연구는 지역아동센터에서 운영하는 예체능교육의 현황을 살펴보고 만족도를 조사하여 향후 예체능교육이 보다 내실화되는데 필요한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. 연구대상은 경기도의 17개 지역아동센터이며, 2014년부터 2016년까지 운영된 예체능교육 현황을 조사하였다. 아울러 예체능교육을 받은 아동 419명에게 만족도 조사를 하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 2014년부터 2016년까지 예체능교육 현황을 살펴보면, 3년동안 예체능교육을 전혀 운영하지 않은 지역아동센터는 17개 기관 중 3개 기관이고, 3년 동안 지속적으로 예체능교육을 실시한 지역아동센터는 17개 기관 중 6개 기관이다. 2년동안 예체능교육을 실시한 기관은 17개 기관 중 2개 기관이였으며, 3년동안 한해라도 예체능교육을 지속한 기관은 17개 기관 중 6개 기관이였다. 예체능교육 진행교사의 전공 일치도를 살펴보면, 17개 기관의 미술, 음악교육은 모두 교양과정으로 자격을 이수한 비전공 경력자였다. 그러나 체육교육에서는 체육을 전공한 대학생들이 교육을 실시하였다. 예체능교육에 대한 서비스만족도를 살펴본 결과 예체능교육은 아동의 전반적인 생활에 많은 도움이 되었으며, 성별로 보면 여학생에 비해 남학생이 예체능교육에 대한 도움이 컸다고 했다. 예체능교육에 대한 만족도는 교육 참여학생 대부분 만족도가 높았으며, 특히 남학생의 만족도가 여학생보다 높았다. 추후 예체능교육에 대한 재참여 희망도를 살펴본 결과, 응답학생 대부분 참석하겠다라는 응답을 하였으며 여학생보다 남학생의 경우 재참여 희망도가 더 높았다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 몇 가지 제안을 하고자 한다. 지역아동센터 이용 아동의 창의력 향상과 인성교육을 함양하기 위해 질 높은 예체능교육은 더 많이 필요 하다고 하겠다. 친구들과의 원활한 의사소통을 배우는데 예체능교육이 활용될수 있다. 또한 아동들의 신체적 건강성과 정서적 안정감을 주는 창의적인 예체능교육이 되기 위해서는 목적에 맞는 목표를 설정하여 교육을 보완하는 것이 필요하다고 사료된다.
