Character education is an opportunity for students to develop character through teaching values in schools. In the past, students have been taught values at home but contemporary society has strongly encouraged the public schools to provide time for children to learn values because society is facing a crisis of human values that affects the behavior of individuals. According to research findings, the primary benefit of character education is to develop the intellectual, personal, and social aspects of students. However, there are some problems concerning how to teach values and how to evaluate student outcomes in public schools. This article explores the current character education in the U. S. through a review of the literature in order to reach a better understanding of how character education might be included in the Family and Consumer Sciences Education curriculum.

This study explores the effects of an SSI-based program focused on character and values for engineering college students. The participants were fifty-four students enrolled in the program. Data sources include the students' responses to the Likert-type questionnaire on character and values as well as qualitative data such as classroom dialogues, assignment essays and field notes. The results indicate that the program significantly contributed to the enhancement of the engineering college students' perception of character and values, especially in the sub-components, sustainable development, perspective-taking, and willingness to act. In addition, the qualitative data reveals the nuances of the students' responses in the classroom dialogue and essays related to the sub-components. Based on the results, the author compares the participants' responses to other students in previous research which reported the effects of an SSI-based program on character and values. Compared to the other students, the engineering students in this study cultivated willingness to act through the SSI-based program, without improvement in most of the emotional aspects of character and values.

Diverse characters have been recently used in fashion products for children. The degree to which parents accept children's opinions or attitudes when they engage in dialogue may be connected with consumer socialization and affect the criteria for the evaluation of character fashion products. This study examined the effects of mothers' childrearing attitudes on consumer socialization and the evaluation criteria for character fashion products for children. A questionnaire was conducted via the Internet on 310 mothers with children aged between four and twelve. The results of the study showed: First, childrearing attitudes were divided into four dimensions: hostility, autonomy, acceptance, and control. Consumer socialization was divided into communication in regards to consumption, consumption control, and the awareness of social relations. The evaluation criteria for character fashion products for children were divided into educational/utilitarian values, emotional values, and social values. Second, mothers were divided into an acceptance group, a moderation group, and a hostility group based on childrearing attitudes. The group with hostile childrearing attitudes had control over their children's consumption and were conscious of others in the process of consumption. The group with accepting childrearing attitudes considered educational/utilitarian values and emotional values when they purchased character fashion products for children. The group with hostile childrearing attitudes considered social values. Third, autonomous childrearing attitudes had the largest influence on communication in regards to consumption. Controlling childrearing attitudes had the largest influence on consumption control and the awareness of social relations. Controlling childrearing attitudes had the largest influence on social/utilitarian and emotional values; however hostile childrearing attitudes had the largest influence on social values.

Due to the development of artificial intelligence and image recognition technology that play important roles in the field of 4th industry, office automation systems and unmanned automation systems are rapidly spreading in human society. The proposed algorithm first finds the variances of the differences between the tile values constituting the learning characters and the experimental character and then recognizes the experimental character according to the distribution of the three learning characters with the smallest variances. In more detail, for 100 learning data characters and 10 experimental data characters, each character is defined as the number of black pixels belonging to 15 tile areas. For each character constituting the experimental data, the variance of the differences of the tile values of 100 learning data characters is obtained and then arranged in the ascending order. After that, three learning data characters with the minimum variance values are selected, and the final recognition result for the given experimental character is selected according to the distribution of these character types. Moreover, we compare the recognition result with the result made by a neural network of basic structure. It is confirmed that satisfactory recognition results are obtained through the processes that subdivide the learning characters and experiment characters into tile sizes and then select the recognition result using variances.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 윤리적 가치와 윤리적 민감성이 인성에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 임상실습을 경험한 간호학과 3, 4학년 356명을 대상으로 구조화된 설문지를 이용하여 수행되었다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 20.0 프로그램을 활용하여 t-test, ANOVA/Kruskal-Wallis test, Pearson 상관계수, 단계적 회귀분석을 하였다. 연구 결과 인성에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인은 윤리적 민감성 중에서 환자중심간호영역이었으며(${\beta}=0.258$), 윤리적 가치 중 간호사협동자관계영역(${\beta}=0.153$) 점수가 높을수록, 종교(${\beta}=0.131$)가 있는 경우, 윤리적 민감성 중 전문적책임영역(${\beta}=0.101$)의 점수가 높을수록 인성에 긍정적 영향을 주었으며, 이상의 변수들은 인성의 43.3%를 설명하는 것으로 나타났다(F=44.960, p<.001). 본 연구를 통하여 윤리적 가치와 윤리적 민감성이 인성에 영향을 주는 중요한 변수임을 확인할 수 있었으며 인성 함양을 위해 이러한 요인들을 고려한 다학제적 융합교육 수업방안 마련이 필요하다.

Learning data is composed of 100 characters with 10 different fonts, and test data is composed of 10 characters with a new font that is not used for the learning data. In order to consider the variety of learning data with several different fonts, 10 learning masks are constructed by accumulating pixel values of same characters with 10 different fonts. This process eliminates minute difference of characters with different fonts. After finding maximum values of learning masks, test data is expanded by multiplying these maximum values to the test data. The algorithm calculates sum of differences of two corresponding pixel values of the expanded test data and the learning masks. The learning mask with the smallest value among these 10 calculated sums is selected as the result of the recognition process for the test data. The proposed algorithm can recognize various types of fonts, and the learning data can be modified easily by adding a new font. Also, the recognition process is easy to understand, and the algorithm makes satisfactory results for character recognition.

기존의 문자 영역 추출 방법은 전체 영상에 대하여 컬러 축소(color reduction), 영역 분할 및 합병(region split and merge), 질감 분석(texture analysis)등과 같은 방법을 이용하여 문자 영역을 추출했다. 이 방법들은 많은 휴우리스틱(heuristic) 변수와 추출하고자 하는 문자의 사전 지식에 의해 임계치 값을 설정함으로서 알고리즘을 일반화하기 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 문자의 지형학적 특징점 추출 방법과 점-선-면 확장법을 이용하여 문자 영역을 추출함으로서 기존 문자 영역 추출의 문제점인 휴우리스틱 변수의 사용을 최소화하고 임계치 값을 일반화함으로 서 일반화된 문자 영역 추출 방법을 제안 하고자 한다. 실험결과 일반화된 변수와 임계값을 사용함으로서 문자의 사전 지식 없이도 문자 영역을 추출함을 볼 수 있었다. 비디오 영상의 경우 후보 영역 추출율 100%, 검증을 통한 자막 영역 추출율은 98% 이상임을 볼 수 있었다.

We propose a character recognition system to extract the component reference names from printed circuit boards (PCBs) automatically. The names are written in horizontal, vertical, reverse-horizontal and reverse-vertical directions. Also various symbols and figures are included in PCBs. To recognize the character and orientation effectively, we divide the recognizer into two stages: character classification stage and orientation classification stage. The character classification stage consists of two sub-recognizers and a verifier. The rotaion-invarint features of input pattern are then used to identify the character independent of orientation. Each recognizer is implemented as a neural network, and the weight values of verifier are obtained by genetic algorithm. In the orientation classification stage, the input pattern is compared with reference patterns to identify the orientation. Experimental results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed system.
