The untact environment brought about by the global pandemic has emerged as a new driving force for the matured social media market. In the post-coronavirus era, there arises a pivotal need for foundational data to reconfigure the operations and utilization strategies of social media. Using data from the 2022 Korean Media Panel Survey, this study compared sociodemographic and personality factors between social media non-users and users, and examined how these factors influenced social media usage time. The findings indicate differences between social media non-users and users in terms of gender, age, education level, income level, employment status, marital status, openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, and neuroticism. Usage time of social media is influenced by gender, age, income level, employment status, conscientiousness, and agreeableness. These results are anticipated to enhance the understanding of users and their usage behaviors for stakeholders in the social media market as they confront a potential second leap forward.

Objective: This study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an individually tailored program based on self-measurement of blood glucose on health behavior and HbA1c in diabetes and pre-diabetes patients. Methods: The program consisted of seven sessions for 12 weeks which were carried out every two weeks. Almost all sessions were progressed on untact method except for the first and last session. The 71 subjects were assessed for their knowledge of diabetes, health behavior, the experience of self-measurement of blood glucose, body mass Index (BMI) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) at before and after the program. They were also evaluated on their degree of utilization of blood glucose measurements after the program. Results: Each mean score on their knowledge of diabetes, health behavior and the experience of self-measurement of blood glucose was significantly increased from 14.77, 25.50, and 2.70 to 15.41, 28.40, and 4.81, respectively. Each mean score on both BMI and HbA1c (n=53) was significantly decreased from 24.47kg/m² and 7.27% to 24.01kg/m² and 6.67%, respectively. The post-HbA1c had a significant negative correlation(r=-0.415) with the degree of utilization of blood glucose measurements. The degree of utilization of blood glucose measurements had a significant positive correlation(r=0.581) with post-health behavior. Conclusions: The program shows effectiveness in improving HbA1c in Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes patients. The post-HbA1c might be related to the degree of utilization of blood glucose measurements which might be related to the health behavior.

This study is to identify the awareness and performance of hand washing according to the presence of clinical practice experience of paramedic students and provide basic data of education on hand washing that can be practically applied. 335 students in paramedicine department in P city and J city were the study subjects and we distributed URL to those who agreed to participate in the study to carry out untact survey using questionnaire. The study results were analyzed by using SPSS/WIN 23.0. The results showed that the average number of hand washing per day was 5~8 times (142 students, 42.4%) and average time for washing hands was 24.34 seconds. We could find statistically significant differences in 'hand washing to wrist' and 'it is necessary to completely dry after hand washing' in terms of difference on awareness of hand washing according to the clinical experiences (p<0.05). In terms of differences in hand washing performance according to clinical practice experience, statistically significant difference was found in 'before touching equipment for clinical practice' and 'before taking foods such as drinks during practice' (p<0.05). The correlation between awareness and performance of hand washing showed that if awareness of hand washing is high, its performance is increased, too (p=0.001). We try to provide basic data of education on hand washing that can improve awareness and performance on hand washing based on the results of this study.

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of remote education, yet the adoption rate of AI in the educational sector remains relatively low, and studies into learners' familiarity with using AI learning robots are scarce. In response, this study analyzes the factors influencing users' familiarity with AI learning robots in a smart learning environment tailored to the untact era. To this end, social big data analysis was used to examine changes in public perception and the frequency of mentions of smart learning and AI learning robots. The results showed that positive perceptions of smart learning significantly outweigh negative ones, reflecting the convenience and improved accessibility that technology brings to education. However, there is also a considerable negative perception attached to smartphone use, which is interpreted as reflecting concerns that smartphones may disrupt learning and bring other negative aspects of technology dependence. These results indicate mixed social concerns and expectations regarding the educational use of smart learning and AI technologies. The effective introduction and use of AI learning robots, especially in smart learning environments, necessitate considering these social perceptions. This study provides foundational data for the effective implementation and use of AI learning robots in smart learning environments and suggests the need for approaches that primarily consider users' familiarity and social perceptions in the development of educational technologies.

This study examined how different types of remote video lectures, which universities are using in earnest now due to the COVID-19 pandemic, impact the academic achievement of learners. Zoom-based remote video lectures were divided into two types-general lecture-centered and group task-oriented-and experimental and control groups were set up accordingly. An achievement test and a questionnaire were conducted to determine how academic achievement differed between these two approaches. The achievement test revealed no significant differences in achievement scores between the two groups. Meanwhile, the questionnaire regarding satisfaction with Zoom-based video lectures indicated that both groups were highly satisfied. Participants in the general lecture-centered type group cited the effect of learning, their instructors' class preparation and attitudes towards the class, and the promotion of participation in learning activities as the causes of their satisfaction, while participants in the task-oriented type group highlighted communication and sharing, the efficiency of group discussions, and the moderate difficulty level of group tasks as the reasons for their satisfaction with the video lectures. Remote video lectures in the untact era are becoming increasingly common, and educators will need to develop various Zoom-based teaching strategies to maximize their efficiency.
