Purpose: The objective of this study was to identify functional problems, including walking ability, of patients with strokes using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and to present a method that could solve functional problems, thereby determining the applicability of the ICF to increase the quality of evaluation and intervention in clinical fields in the future. Methods: Information on stroke patients who were admitted and treated in a hospital was collected. The authors conducted evaluations, interventions, and measurements of the results of the ICF tool in order to improve gait abilities of patients. The subjects were trained using proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) one hour a day and five times a week for four weeks. The result measurement variables were a six-minute gait test, 10 m velocity test, gait instability test, and measurements using the ICF sheet. Results: In the six-minute gait test, gait distance increased by 48 m, from 102 m to 150 m. The gait velocity test result showed an improvement from 0.36m/s to 0.44m/s. The subjects performed a gait instabilitytestwithacupfilledwith50mmwater. In the gait instability test, the amount of water was 38 mm before the intervention; however, it was 50 mm after the intervention. The gait velocity with a cup filled with water improved from 0.25m/s to 0.31m/s. Conclusion: An evaluation and intervention were designed with the ICF tool for stroke patients. Gait abilities improved when the PNF technique was used. The IFC method can be used for evaluation and intervention, and it could help improve gait abilities of stroke patients.

This study aims at analyzing the management strategy and performance of companies that have been pursuing Generational Diversity. The management strategies were examined in terms of production, organizational structure and skill development. Performance was then evaluated using Balanced Scorecard (BSC). We selected four Japanese companies that practice Generational Diversity between the younger(age less then 34) and older generation(age older then 65). Our findings suggest the following. The common management strategies of the four companies include 1) creating generation-diverse teams 2) ensuring flexible work arrangements and 3) providing skill training programs. These strategies have yield positive outcomes such as sales increase, cost reduction (financial perspective) and expansion of the market share (customer perspective). Non-financial performance includes improvement of product and service quality (internal business perspective) and skill improvement of both the young and the old workers (learning and growth perspective). This study provides practical implications to domestic companies for their successful management of generational diversity in workplace.

In order to develop value-added low-salt fermented seafood with a long shelf-life, we prepared seasoned low-salt fermented Mideoduck (Styela clava) supplemented with fermentation alcohol (SME). The SME was produced by washing and dewatering shelled Mideoduck, followed by cutting and salting for 24 h at 0℃. The salted Mideoduck was seasoned and fermented with ingredients, including garlic, ginger, monosodium glutamate, red pepper, sesame, sorbitol and sugar, for 7-8 days at 0℃. After adding 3-5% fermentation alcohol, the Mideoduck was packed in a polyester container. The salinity, volatile basic nitrogen, and amino nitrogen content of the SME was 4.5%, 20.9 mg/100 g and 92.0 mg/100 g, respectively. In comparison with the control, the addition of 3-5% fermentation alcohol showed inhibitory effects of decreased freshness, texture degradation, and growth of residual bacteria. Additionally, the SME had good storage stability and organoleptic qualities when stored at 4±1℃ for 40 days. Therefore, it is suitable for commercialization as a seasoned low-salt fermented product with a long shelf-life. The total amino acid content of the SME was 11,774.5 mg/100 g, majorly comprising glutamic acid, aspartic acid, lysine, arginine, and leucine, and the free amino acid content was 506.4 mg/100 g, majorly comprising hydroxyproline, taurine, and glutamic acid.

With the development of realistic content technology and related infrastructure, interest in the use of virtual reality content is growing. Accordingly, in the field of safety education, more and more cases of producing virtual reality-based safety education (VR safety education) contents such as experiencing disaster situations realistically by supplementing the shortcomings of existing lecture-style education. This study looked at the characteristics and effects of VR safety education compared to the existing safety education, and analyzed 104 VR safety education contents produced and disclosed to date into nine classifications based on content and form. Based on the degree of relevance between items and the two axes of 'interactionability' and 'vividness of the environment', VR safety education contents could be categorized into three types: tangible lecture type, simulation type, and game type. Through this study, we hope to contribute to the planning and production of quality VR safety education contents by considering the purpose of safety education and the characteristics of types with the expected effects.

Objectives: The objectives of this study are to introduce the development process of work situations and types in the revised regulations on wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) for hazardous chemical handlers, analyze the implementation of the regulations, and then provide basic data for future education strategies. Methods: The development process of work situations for regulation was explained through a flowchart by year. In 2018, a survey of 30 chemical managers and 201 managers and handlers was conducted based on recognition of work situations and the related regulations. In 2019, 91 chemical managers and 204 handlers were surveyed to find the degree of compliance with regulations, direction for improvement of understanding the regulations, and training methods. Results: Only 78.0% of chemical managers and 66.7% of handlers said they were aware of the regulations (p<0.05). Just 79.0% of handlers knowing the regulations said they would wear PPE in compliance with these regulations. Therefore, the best way to make workers wear proper PPE in accordance with regulations is to strengthen the promotion of education on regulations. In order to improve the quality of education, 51.7% of managers and 33.3% of handlers cited educational content (video, ppt, etc.) as the top priority. Conclusion: This study suggested that more educational opportunities should be provided and educational content should be developed in order for workers handling hazardous chemicals to wear PPE as prescribed in regulations.

Nitrogen is the most essential macronutrient for the growth of fruit trees and is important factor determining the fruit yield. In order to produce high-quality fruits, it is necessary to supply the appropriate nitrogen fertilizer at the right time. For this, it is a prerequisite to accurately diagnose the nitrogen status of fruit trees. The fastest and most accurate way to determine the nitrogen deficiency of fruit trees is to measure the nitrogen concentration in leaves. However, it is not easy for citrus growers to measure nitrogen concentration through leaf analysis. In this study, several machine learning models were developed to classify the nitrogen deficiency based on the concentration measurement of mineral nutrients in the leaves of tangor Shiranuhi (Citrus unshiu × C. sinensis). The data analyzed from the leaves were increased to about 1,000 training dataset through the bootstrapping method and used to train the models. As a result of testing each model, gradient boosting model showed the best classification performance with an accuracy of 0.971.

Software in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is becoming a key foundation in an intelligent information society. Therefore, it is necessary to study the new direction of manpower training and education that can cope with the times. To this end, the Ministry of Education reorganized the curriculum and is implementing software education based on a logical problem-solving process based on computing thinking skills rather than acquiring general ICT knowledge. However, there is a lack of securing high-quality educational content for software education, and there is also a lack of teaching aids that can be taught in connection with advanced IT technologies. To overcome this, this paper proposes the development of external expansion devices to expand educational content and functions capable of convergent software education such as artificial intelligence using coding robots for software education. Through this, effective software education is possible by improving the curriculum of the existing simple problem-solving method and developing various learning materials.

This study The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural relationship among social support, job satisfaction, happiness, teacher efficacy. Participants were 249 teachers from teachers' training programs. Descriptive statistics analysis and path analysis were conducted. SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 21.0 were used. As a result of the analysis, it was found that teachers' social support had a significant effect on job satisfaction and happiness, and job satisfaction had a significant effect on happiness and teacher efficacy, but social support and happiness did not directly affect teacher efficacy. However, it was found that social support has a partial mediating effect through a sense of happiness through job satisfaction, and social support has a complete mediation effect through a sense of teacher efficacy through job satisfaction. This study is considered to be the basic data for preparing a plan to improve the teacher's sense of efficacy, an important factor in determining the quality of public education.
