  • 본 논문은 공통의 인식형성 장치로서 근대 교과서를 위치 짓고, 삽화의 사실적 표현 양식과 교과서 내 배치가 세계인식 형성에 중요한 역할을 했음을 지적하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 주된 연구대상은 일제 강점기에 문부성, 조선총독부, 타이완 총독부, 만주교육회 등이 간행한 초등학교 지리교과서의 인종 민족에 관한 삽화를 비교함으로써 당시의 제국이라는 세계의 인식을 교과서 편자가 시각적으로 어떻게 조정하고자 했는지를 검토했다. 연구의 주요결과는 다음의 세 가지이다. 첫째, 지리교과서에 인구조사와 분류방법론이 도입된 후 비로소 제국은 인종, 민족별 총합으로 간주되었다. 나아가 전시기의 제국은 소수 인종 및 민족에 의해 그 의미가 지지되었다. 둘째, 인종 민족의 표현양식은 초기에 과학적 관찰 대상으로서 이질적인 부분을 강조하던 것에서 후기로 갈수록 독자와 유사한 생활 문화를 지닌 대상으로 변해갔다. 셋째, 인종 민족 삽화는 제국 내 간행지역에 따라 다르게 사용되었는데 각 지역 독자에게 같은 범주의 다른 이미지를 가지게 했다. 많은 사례 중에 대표성이 가지는 정치성, 특정 인종 민족 삽화의 사용 유무로 알 수 있었다. 20세기 전반의 교과서는 삽화그림을 대거 사용함으로써 독자가 직접 만날 수 없는 인민에 대한 선견적 인식을 부여했다. 종주국 아동은 교과서를 통해 다양한 제국인민을 조망하면서 '보는 입장'에 선 위치를 자각한다. 반면 식민지 아동의 교과서에는 '보이는 입장'에 섰다가 제국의 확장과 함께 종주국 주체의 입장을 내면화해가는 변화를 보였다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the needs of health education in students, their parents and teachers in the elementary, middle and high schools and the current situation of health education class. Method: The subjects of this study were a total of 9450 persons including students, their parents and teachers from 279 schools throughout the country. They were selected through convenient sampling. Data were analyzed through $\chi^2$-test and ANOVA. Result: Students, their parents and teachers replied that 18 dimensions of health education class (DHEC) are necessary. The four DHEC - healthier life style, sex education, mental health and safety education - showed high educational needs in students, their parents, and teachers. High school students had higher educational need of 'symptom management for daily living' than elementary and middle school students. Students, their parents and teachers in elementary school had higher educational needs of 17 DHEC than those in middle and high school. The percentages of schools with health education class taught by health teachers were 99.2%, 75.5% and 66.0% respectively in elementary, middle and high schools. Health education was given mainly using physical education classes at elementary schools, and creative class hours at middle and high schools. In general, health education took 1-3 hours per week at elementary schools, and less than an hour at middle and high schools. Conclusion: Therefore, based on the results, systematic health education class should begin from elementary school to meet the need of health education in students, their parents and teachers, and further study should be made on the number of hours required and the amount of contents of 18 DHEC.

  • 목재(木齋) 이삼환(李森煥)의 "맹호음(猛?吟)"은 목재가 선대(先代)에서 창작했던 시의 운자(韻字)를 따라 지은 5언절구 7수 연작시 3편을 말한다. 이 시는 제목과 내용으로 보아 "맹호행(猛虎行)" 계열 한시의 창작 전통을 이은 것이라고 할 수 있지만, 5언이나 7언, 혹은 장단구의 장편 고시가 아니라 근체 연작시 형식으로 창작되었다는 점에서 일반적인 "맹호행(猛虎行)" 계열의 시와 구분된다. 목재의 "맹호음(猛?吟)"은 그의 나이 73세가 되던 1801년 일어난 신유박해(辛酉迫害) 이후 어느 시점에 지어진 것으로 보인다. 따라서 그의 "맹호음(猛?吟)"은 노론 계열을 중심으로 하는 당대 사회의 부패한 정치권력을 비판하는 우언시(寓言詩), 사회시(社會詩)라고 할 수 있고, 그의 시에 등장하는 '맹호(猛虎)'는 당시 집권 세력을 지칭한다고 할 수 있다. 그런데 목재의 "맹호음(猛?吟)"을 살펴보면 현실의 질곡에 대한 비판의식이 드러나기는 하지만, 그 감정이 격절하거나 묘사가 구체적이지 않다. 그의 시에는 적극적인 현실 비판이나 강한 저항 의식이 보이지 않는다. "맹호음(猛?吟)"이 보여주는 이런 특성은 그가 평생 추구했던 학문과 그의 정서에 삶의 경험과 현실의 무게가 더해진 결과라 생각된다. 목재가 겪었던 당대의 모순은 그를 침묵하고만 있을 수 없게 했지만 그 자신의 울분을 시의 표면에 격절하게 드러낼 수도 없게 하였다. 자신의 행동에 영향 받는 후예들과 그를 지켜보는 반대 세력의 따가운 시선 사이에서 그는 자신의 감정을 내적으로 갈무리할 수밖에 없었던 것이다. 목재의 "맹호음(猛?吟)"에서 살펴볼 수 있는 정서의 구체적인 양상과 의미를 보다 선명하게 밝히기 위해서는 목재의 시에 대한 깊이 있는 천착이 계속되어야 할 것이다.

  • 인터넷 포털과 사회관계망 서비스(SNS) 등의 온라인 공간에서 사용자 간의 의견 공유가 활발해짐에 따라 이를 악용하여 특정 개인이나 집단의 이익을 위해 유포되는 비정상 정보도 증가하고 있다. 특히 비정상 정보가 정치적인 목적으로 유포되면 선거 결과뿐 아니라 다양한 사회 정책과 시민 생활에도 영향을 미친다. 이러한 비정상 정보는 불특정 다수에 대한 유포에서 시작하였으며 이들의 특성을 분석하고 탐지하기 위한 기존 연구도 이러한 불특정 다수 대상 유포에 초점을 맞추었다. 하지만 최근에는 더욱 효과적으로 영향을 미치기 위해 공통 관심사를 가진 집단(예: 부동산에 관심 있는 사람들의 모임)을 대상으로 내용과 형식을 조정한 맞춤형 정보를 유포하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 관심 집단을 대상으로 한 비정상 정보의 특성을 분석하고 이를 탐지하는 방법을 제시한다. 이를 위해 선거 전후에 10개의 공통 관심 집단에 게시된 의견을 수집하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 각 집단에 맞춤화된 정보가 실제 유포되고 있으며 선거일이 가까워짐에 따라 점차 증가함을 보였다. 또한, 비정상 정보를 탐지하기 위한 시스템을 제안하였는데, 이 시스템은 개별 의견에서 보이는 특징뿐 아니라 의견 게시자의 전반적인 행위 및 게시자와 협력한 사용자의 특성을 종합적으로 분석한다. 제안한 시스템을 수집한 데이터에 적용한 결과 90% 이상의 정확도로 비정상 의견을 탐지하였으며 다수의 사용자가 조직적으로 비정상 의견을 유포한 정황을 발견하였다. 제안한 시스템으로 관심 집단에 게시된 의견을 주기적으로 검사한다면 비정상 정보의 유포를 더 빠르게 차단하고 영향을 줄일 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 탐지에 활용한 특징은 정치적인 목적 이외의 비정상 정보 판별에도 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • The new millennium is characterized by an unprecedented breakthrough in knowledge and information and communication technologies, and the challenges of the XXI century require modernized paradigms of interaction in all spheres of life. Education continues to play a key role in national and global growth. The key role of education and its leadership in developing creative potential, as the main paradigm of the countries' stability, have significantly influenced educational centers. The developers of educational programs use information technologies as an incentive to develop creative potential of educational process. Professional training of the educational candidate is enhanced by the use of information technologies, so the educational applicants should develop technological skills to be productive members of society. Using the latest achievements in the field of information technologies for the organization of the educational process helps to form the operational style of education applicants' thinking, which provides the ability to acquire skills of processing information, that is presented in the text, graphic, tabular form, and increase the level of general and informational culture necessary for better orientation in the modern information space. The purpose of the research is to determine the effectiveness of information technologies as an incentive to develop creative potential of educational process on the basis of the survey, to establish advantages and ability to provide high-quality education in the context of using information technologies. Methods of research: comparative analysis; systematization; generalization, survey. Results. Based on the survey conducted among students and teachers, it has been found out that the teachers use the following information technologies for the development of creative potential of the educational process: to provide video and audio communication process (100%), Moodle (95,6%), Duolingo (89,7%), LinguaLeo (89%), Google Forms (88%) and Adobe Captivate Prime (80,6%). It is determined that modular digital learning environments (97,9%), interactive exercises tools (96,3%), ICT for video and audio communication (96%) and interactive exercises tools (95,1%) are most conducive to the development of creative potential of the educational process.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 기도관리의 중요한 장비 중 하나인 bag-mask ventilation (BMV)의 환기 적절성이 상업화된 마스크의 종류에 따라 그리고 처치자의 손의 특성에 따른 영향요인을 분석해 가장 적확한 bag-mask의 종류를 제언해보기 위한 연구이다. 이를 위해 전남지역 D 대학의 기본인명 소생술 교육센터(대한심폐소생협회 등록기관)에 응급의료종사자를 위한 기본소생술 과정 및 한국형 전문심장구조술 과정을 수료한 학생을 39명을 모집하여, 손의 신체적 특성을 측정함은 물론, bag-mask를 이용한 분당 평균환기량을 측정 및 분석하였다. 결과적으로 손의 특성에 가장 영향을 받지 않고 적절한 환기량이 제공되는 마스크 유형은 Soft type(tube, silicon)의 마스크였다. 반면 Hard type(tube, silicon)의 마스크는 처치자의 손의 특성에 유의미한 영향을 받아 보편적으로 사용하기에 부적절함을 알 수 있었다. 현재 COVID-19로 인해 구급대원과 환자들에게 감염의 위험도는 증가하고 있다. 이러한 상황들을 고려했을 때 감염방지는 물론, 적절한 환기량에도 불리한 반영구 Hard type 마스크의 보편적 사용은 지양되어야 할 것으로 생각되며, 이에 환자 및 처치자의 감염 방지(1회 용) 용이성은 물론 적절한 환기량에서도 안정적인 환기량을 제공 가능한 Soft type 마스크의 '장점 인식'과 공급을 통해 현장에서 적극적으로 활용돼야 할 것이다.

  • This thesis started from the attempt to make it clear that 80's American artist Keith Haring(1958-1990) had conducted social intervention of criticism, resistance, and participation through his works, and so pursued public value. Haring of graffiti fame left popular and familiar cartoon style pictures on the street wall, the billboards, the posters and so on. Popular and playful works was explained as his unique characteristics, but Haring's creative way at the field has more value than just being grasped as artist's personal characteristics. Haring's work pieces became everyday art by joining with people's life, and are working as a social speaking place. So I think that these Haring's art works possess characteristics of 'the public sphere'. 'The Public Sphere' means that is independent and free from the government or partisan economic forces, so that is not connected with the interested relations, and that is the sphere of rational argumentation without 'disguise' or 'fabrication', and that is the sphere where general public can participate in and is inspected by them. The public sphere between the sphere of public authority such a nation and a market and the private sphere of free individual, it is mutually connected with them and works as the space forming public opinion. Private individuals communicate with this public sphere and perform a role of direct and indirect check, balance, and social criticism way off from power. Openness that should include the voice of not only leading power but also the socially weak such as citizens, women, homosexuals, minority races, and so on, and alienated class, is an index of the public characteristics. The public sphere is not working just with speech and mass media. Many artists as well as Haring open their mouth and act through an art at the center of society, and create another public sphere by an art. I understood that the real participatory and practical characteristics on the Haring's work is a phenomenon and current of a part of the art world including Haring. Such current started from 1960s is the in-depth effort to be connected with the life more closely, to communicate with people, and to improve problems of life. And it has pursued public value on the different way from the nation or public power. Artists have intervened in the society with strategic and positive ways in order to raise pushed-out value and sinked rights as the public agenda, and labored to accept the value of variety and difference at the society. The aspect of such social intervention is the notable features, findable on the Haring's works and process. Haring's works include art historical meanings and are expressed with familiar and plastic language, so they were able to communicate with various classes. And he secured various customers at the field and the street. This communicative and public approach factor raised the possibility much for his works to work as the public sphere. Haring presented critical and resistant speech toward society with his works based on this factor. He asserted his position and justice of gender identity as a sexual minority. And his such work continued to movement for alienated class and social week over his own rights. His speech and message on the wall painting, poster, T-shirts, billboard of the subway, and so on worked as a spectacle and pressed concern with social issues and consciousness shift. And he's been trying to protect and care people who is injured by HIV and drug and to realize social justice through social week protection. Haring's works planned to meet many people as much as possible performed its role of intervening in society through criticism, resistance, speech, and participation, and controlling and checking social issues. These things considered, Haring's works show his consciousness about public attributes of art, and obviously include public value seeking. And also we can find the meaning of such his work as that an art is working as the public sphere and shows the possibility to discuss and practice public issues.

  • 본 연구는 우리나라 공포양식(?包樣式)의 초시적인 모습이라 할 수 있는 고구려 고분벽화에 묘사된 공포도(?包圖)를 북방 주변 국가와의 문화적 교류와 천도(遷都)에 따른 지역 시기 형상별로 고찰하고 유형별로 체계화 정립을 주 내용으로 한다. 고구려 고분벽화에 묘사된 공포는 지상에서의 묘주가 통치자로서 군사 행정 정치 사회적으로 누렸던 지위나 신분에 따른 옥사(屋舍)의 제한과도 밀접한 관련이 있으므로 묘주 생전 지상가옥의 공포형태에 직접적인 관련이 있다고 보이며, 지상에서의 실제 공포 출현시기는 고분 축조 편년보다 최소한 1세기 이상 앞선 것으로 추정이 가능하다. 이는, 고구려 지상에서의 공포출현시기와 관련하여, 공포가 묘사된 중국 동한기(東漢期) 고분(古墳) 내 가형명기(家形明器)와 화상석(?像石) 화상전(畵像塼)의 제작시기와도 대체로 일치한다는 점에서도 추정을 이해할 수 있다. 본 연구 결과, 고분벽화에 묘사된 공포도는 비포작계, 준포작계, 포작계로 대별되고, 포작계는 비출목형과 출목형으로 세분하였다. 또한 고구려 공포는 한(漢) 이후 같은 동이족인 북위(北魏)로부터 유입되었으며, 고구려 풍토와 정서에 맞도록 토착화되어 고유한 고구려 형식의 공포체계로 발전 확립되었다. 고구려 멸망(668) 이후 이러한 기법은 문화적 교류 및 망명인들에 의해 주변국에서 그 맥을 이어갔다.

Data were collected from April let to April 18th, 1998 by ready structured questionaires. The purpose of this study was to offer the basic data for health promotion theory development and health promotion strategy planning. This study was based on Pender's Health Promotion Model and examined three variables health promoting behavior, self-concept and perceived importance of health. The Life Style and Health Habit Assessment scale(LHHA) developed by Pender(1982).The Self-concept scale developed by Choi(1972) and the Health Value scale developed by Wallston, Maides and Wallston(1980) were used for this study. Data was analyzed by percentage, mean. t-test. ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and Stepwise Multiple Regression. The major findings of this study are as follows ; 1. The average level of health promoting behavior practice was 63.2% and possible range was from 62 to 248 point. The mean score of respondent's positive self-concept was 75.8. 81.4% of respondents put a high priority on the importance of health. 2. There was a significant difference between the practice level in the category of general self care and less amount of working hours per day(P=0.000), less amount of working hours per week(P=0.000). There was a significant difference between the practice level in the category of nutrition and age(0.002), marital status(0.000), working hour per day(0.008), working hours per week(0.001), There was a significant difference between the practice level in the category of nutriton and sex(0.000), age(0.000), marital status(0.025), education level(0.000), working hours per day(0.002), working hours per week(0.006).

There was a significant difference between the practice level in the category of self-actualization and working hours per day(0.050). 3. General characteristics influencing the respodent's self-concept were level(P=0.009) and worksite(P=0.001). 4. The results of the hypothesis tests are as follows The first hypothesis, that "The respondent who have more positive self-concept will have higher scores in the practice of health promoting behavior." was supported(r=0.2973, P=0.0001). The second hypothesis that "The respondent who have higher perception level on importance of health will have higher scores in the practice health promoting behavior." was rejected(r=- 0665, P=0.2225). 5. The most important factor that affects health promoting behavior practice was working hours per week(6.0%). The combination of working hours per week, age, education level accounted for 10.0% of the variance in health promoting behavior. In conclusion, the results of this study on industrial workers supported Pender's health promotion model in partial and showed the relatedness between self concept and the practice of health promoting behavior. Further research is required to find factors influencing health promoting behaviors of industrial workers.
