  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences of environmental education program through various instructional media on pro-environmental attitudes of forth graders in an elementary school in Seoul. The students were divided into an experimental group and a control group. A questionnaire was used to survey the effects of applying environmental education program through various instructional media. The SPSS 12.0 program was used to analyze the results. The student in the experimental group acquired a higher level of pro-environmental attitudes than the control group did. The environmental education program through various instructional media used in this study were effective especially in dealing with the environmental educational subdomains such as verbal commitment, actual commitment, affect. The major results of this study were as follows. First, environmental education program through various instructional media had a positive effect on the environmental concerns and needs for learning of environmental problems. Second, the group by environmental education program through various instructional media showed the significant difference(p<.001) on the pro-environmental attitudes as it proved those are effect on 3 subdomains of verbal commitment, actual commitment and affect. Third, environmental education program through various instructional media had a positive correlation(from 585 to .680) among the 3 subdomains of verbal commitment, actual commitment and affect. So, students who hold verbal commitment showed good effect on the actual commitment and affect.

  • The purpose of this study was to survey on the awareness of teachers and students to mass media as a source for school environmental education. This study was performed with the questionnaire to 179 teachers who participated in certificate in-service training for $\ulcorner$Environment$\lrcorner$subject and to 635 students(primary: 177, middle: 179, high school students: 279). The results derived from this study were as follows: First, most teachers(86.6%) evaluated that mass media's effects on students were high and positive in terms of school environmental education, thus they thought that the application necessity and possibility of mass media for environmental education were so too. Second, many teachers evaluated that more program related with environment had to be produced(57.0%) and disseminated, and information on them had to be apprised teachers to activate school environmental education(44.1%). Third, both teachers(87.1%) and students(70.4%) evaluated that audio-visual media such as television, video, movie was better than others for environmental education because audio-visual media could be more realistic and dynamic(T: 48.0%, S: 41.7%). Fourth, we found that as the result of statistical analysis, students's friendliness. credibility and preference on media were different to school classes. But we could not analize the relationship between factors for the limit of sample.

  • In this study, adhesion and transport of bacteria in positively-charged media was investigated with batch and column experiments. Bacterial species used in this study was Escherichia coli ATCC 11105(length: 2.2 ${\mu}m$, diameter: 0.6 ${\mu}m$) and media used were quartz sand(particle size distribution: 0.5-2.0 mm, mean diameter: 1.0 mm) and iron-coated sand. Batch results indicate that bacterial adhesion increased as the content of iron-coated media increased. At iron-coated media 0%(quartz sand 100%), around 46% of bacteria was adhered to media while at iron-coated media 100%(quartz sand 0%) about 97% was attached. Column results also show that bacterial adhesion was enhanced with an increase of iron-coated media content. As the iron-coated media content increased from 0 to 100%, bacterial adhesion increased from 8 to 94%. The experimental results demonstrate that positively-charged media could influence transport of bacteria in porous media.

  • The microbial adsorption characteristics of two different media for biological treatment were studied using attached diverse microbes onto activated carbon and ceramic. The results in the experiments of the characteristics of physical adhesion on two different media with addition of high and low concentrated substrate in the culture were observed that the efficient of adhesion onto F-400 activated carbon was higher over that of ceramic due to the surface area of media. The irradiation treatment by ultrasonication with 400 W power and 3 min retention time on the media without addition substrate conditions and subsequent mixing throughly the culture showed the highest efficiency of cell detachment on the media. Three different microbes, P. ovalis, A calcoaceticus, and B. subtillis were used for the study of the characteristics of microbial adhesion on the media. p ovalis showed the highest adhesion capability while B. subtillis showed the lowest capability adhesion onto media either addition of substrate in the culture. The mixed bacterial culture showed $10\%$ lower removal efficiency of DOC in the low concentrated substrate culture compared to the single pure culture. Whileas, it did not show significant difference between two cultures at high concentrated substrate. It was also observed same population density of microorganism by counting of microbes adhered to microbial media with an ultrasound treatment.

  • The objective of this study was to explore how different types of rewards affect customers' inclinations to engage in environmental activities promoted through restaurant social media platforms. In addition, we investigated the potential moderating role of customer level of participation within the social media community. A total of 202 valid responses obtained by distributing a self-administered survey among restaurant patrons were subjected to hierarchical regression analysis to examine relationships between variables. The findings underscored the significant influence of economic and social rewards on shaping customer intent to participate in environmental initiatives promoted within restaurant social media communities. Furthermore, the study revealed that the extent of customer participation within the social media community moderated the relationship between rewards and their likelihood to partake in environmentally conscious behaviors. These results have meaningful implications for restaurant managers seeking to promote environmental initiatives effectively through social media platforms and within their establishments.

  • In this study, the applicability of $CaCO_3$ as a seed material for crystallization reaction was tested. $CaCO_3$ was ground to lesser than 425 mesh and was made to media mixed with binder. Batch experiment was to investigate the ${PO_4}^{3-}-P$ removal efficiency of different parameters such as $CaCO_3$ dosage and binder ratio, size, type and mass of media. In addition, the effect of phosphorus removal from wastewater was tested using a lab-scaled crystallization reactor. At the results of the batch test, phosphorus removals were improved with increasing $CaCO_3$ dosage and media mass but were decreased with increasing media size. Moreover, phosphorus removals were influenced by specific surface area but media type. The average T-P and ${PO_4}^{3-}-P$ removal efficiency in a lab-scaled crystallization reactor with $CaCO_3$ media for wastewater were shown to be 60.2% and 60.3% for 18 days of operation time.

  • Media ADR is currently emerging as one of successful cases in South Korea while environmental ADR was known not to satisfy both defendants and offenders. Thus, this paper is intended to present proper remedies for typical compensation schemes of environmental ADR by comparing the two ADRs regarding legal reservation of compensation clause. It was found that the media ADR helped clients achieve a more fast and easy dispute resolution by providing compensation standards based on various categories such as types and scopes of compensation. However, the compensation scheme of environmental ADR brought out public complaints and inadequate services due to inconsistency and instability in terms of legal reservation. The results indicate that the compensation clause based on the reservation of laws in media ADR could be used not only as a checklist to confirm limitations of environmental ADR, but also as realistic evidences to adjust the compensation standard systematically that is under development and requires remodelling. As a result, the research findings have opened the new possibilities of "the quality assurance of environmental ADR based on the domestic legislation", proposed as an initial aim of this paper.
