An integrated assessment model of climate and the economy (IAM) has been a standard tool for the economic analysis of climate change and policy recommendations. Since policy measures to address climate change take places at a national level, a regional integrated assessment model of climate and the economy (RIAM) is gaining more importance. A RIAM is a useful tool for the assessment of regional (or national) impacts of climate change. This paper investigates the main features of the currently available RIAMs. The focus is social welfare functions and the regional aspects of climate change. The comparative analysis shows that there is a huge gap between the economics of climate change and its applications to RIAMs. As an application, this paper examines the effect of social welfare functions on optimal solutions of the RICE (Regional Integrated model of Climate and the Economy) model. It is found that optimal climate policy such as carbon tax or emissions control rate is very sensitive to the assumptions on social welfare functions of RIAMs. It is better for each country to have their own RIAM as a basic tool for national climate policy-making and for international bargaining in greenhouse-gas mitigation. This is because a country's own preferences such as efficiency, equity, and sustainable development as well as national circumstances can be reflected in RIAM. The Republic of Korea has not developed its own RIAM yet. The comparative analysis and the numerical model in this paper can be a stepping stone for the development of such a national model.

The ultimate goal of classification systems is to provide tools for information management and services through collocation of information objects in similar topics. The National Research Council for Economics, Humanities, and Social Sciences(NRCS) aims to organize the research products from 23 research institutes. To manage and organize the research products effectively, the standard classification system has been developed in conjunction of users' survey and the Business Reference Model(BRM). Although the standard classification system consists of users' perspectives and the aspects of organizational functions, there are limits to apply the system into classification practices. In this study, the proposed hybrid approach is to combine a clustering approach with 1,884 keywords from the titles of research products between 2007 and 2008. The clustering approach is performed in a heuristic way according to the KDC due to the lack of digital full texts of research products. The results of this study proposed a revised standard classification system for NRCS with 16 headings and 90 sub-headings. The revised standard classification system will play an important role in managing research products effectively.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between home economics curriculum and media literacy education. For this purpose, 12 kinds = types of learning materials for middle school 'Technology·Home Economics 2' textbooks were analyzed. After selecting 'Media Literacy Performance Goals(MLPG)' as the basis for analysis, the distribution of media data and reflection of MLPG were analyzed by frequency and content analysis. The results of this study are as follows. First, 39.6% of the learning materials using media materials out of the total learning materials of 12 textbooks, and there were differences in the frequency and weight of learning materials using media materials by publishers. Depending on the type of media, 68.3% of 'printing', 16.7% of 'images, video', 13.5% of 'digital', and 86.5% of the use of unidirectional media. Second, there was a difference in frequency and weight of learning materials reflecting the MLPG by publishers, and it was necessary to supplement the learning content to improve overall media literacy. Among the MLPG reflected in the learning materials, 'meaning and communication' was the most reflected performance goal, with 58.8%, but there was no two-way communication through the media. Based on the results of these textbook analysis, MLPG in Home Economics are revised as follows. 'Understanding the meaning and self-expression', 'Communication and social participation', 'Use of responsible media', 'Appreciation and enjoyment', 'Use of media technology', 'Information search and selection', 'Creation and production', 'Critical understanding and evaluation'.

The purpose of this study was to develop a sustainable dietary education program for middle school home economics subject using a teaching strategy to improve the empowerment of adolescents and to verify and evaluate the effectiveness of the program. To achieve the purpose of this study, the program was developed and evaluated according to the ADDIE teaching design model. The contents related to the dietary area were extracted from the technical & home economics curriculum of the 2015 revised middle school and SDGs, and their relevance was analyzed to select the contents of dietary education. The program developed based on the analysis results is 'dietary life together' and consists of five learning topics: 'living together in the global village', 'maintaining healthy diet', 'creating a dietary culture together', 'living with nature and people', and 'maintaining a safe diet'. As a strategy for improving empowerment, we presented four situations, each of which represents value judgment, prediction of results, responsible behavior choice, and decision making. The developed program was reviewed by experts and applied to 17 unit classes for 17 weeks (1 unit hour per week) to the third graders of middle schools in Gyeonggi-do. Significant differences were found between before and after the class measurements of the personal empowerment and the political and social empowerment, which shows the classes were effective in improving empowerment. However, since there was no significant difference in interpersonal empowerment before and after the program, suggestions were made to utilize strategies to facilitate discussion and cooperative learning when implementing the program. The students who participated in the class evaluated the program positively as a whole. The program was evaluated to have helped the students believe they could change society through solving dietary problems.

We estimate how much KEPCO can save their loss and how much social welfare can be increased by applying the real-time pricing instead of current regulated retail price in the electricity market in order to analyze the problem of the regulated retail price which is fixed below the marginal cost. We estimate the demand functions of peak time and off-peak time in summer (June to August) and winter (December to February). We construct the supply function based on hourly step-wise linear marginal cost functions, too. We find that the increase of social welfare will be 67 billion won in summer if the fixed retail price is changed into the real-time pricing scheme. The total 705 billion won will be transferred from consumer surplus to producer surplus and the rest (67 billion won) will be saved from the reduction of deadweight loss among KEPCO's loss. In winter, the increase of social surplus will be 225 billion won and 1,174 billion won of KEPCO's loss will be transferred from consumer surplus. As a result, we conclude that the regulation of the retail price in the electricity market induces the social welfare loss and KEPCO suffers a huge loss.

Recently, posts and opinions on tourist attractions are actively shared on social media. These social big data provide meaningful information to identify objective images of tourist destinations recognized by consumers. Therefore, an in-depth understanding of the tourist image is possible by analyzing these big data on tourism. The study is to analyze destination images in Gangwon-do using big data from social media. It is wanted to understand destination images in Gangwon-do using semantic network analysis and then provided suggestions on how to enhance image to secure differentiated competitiveness as a destination for tourists. According to the frequency analysis results, as tourism in Gangwon-do, Sokcho, Gangneung, and Yangyang were mentioned at a high level in that order, and the purpose of travel was restaurant tour, gourmet food, family trip, vacation, and experience. In particular, it was found that they preferred day trips, weekends, and experiences. Four suggestions were made based on the results. First, it is necessary to develop various types of hotels, accommodation facilities and experience-oriented tour packages. Second, it is necessary to develop a day-to-day travel package that utilizes proximity to the Seoul metropolitan area. Third, it is necessary to promote traditional restaurants and local food. Finally, it is necessary to develop tourist package suitable for healing and family travel. Through this research, the destination image of Gangwon-do was identified and a tourism marketing strategy was presented to improve competitiveness.

In this paper, we quantify the socio-economic impacts of recycling from a carbon social benefit perspective based on a life cycle assessment and economic evaluation of the printed circuit board (PCB) recycling process for waste mobile phones. In particular, we compare the metal recovery process through PCB recycling of waste mobile phones with the traditional metal mining and smelting process, and analyze the change in carbon dioxide emissions under two electricity generation mixes in 2018 and 2030. The analysis shows that for both gold and copper, PCB recycling generates 6.86 times and 3.69 times more carbon dioxide than traditional mining and smelting, respectively. However, when the 2030 electricity generation mix is applied, the amount of carbon dioxide emitted in the recycling process decreases by 44.72% and 44.65% for copper and gold recovery, respectively. This is due to the nature of the recycling process, which uses electricity as the main energy source. A cost-benefit analysis that includes the social cost of carbon dioxide shows a B/C of 1.95, indicating that recycling is economically feasible. However, this result does not take into account both the problem of securing a sufficient amount of waste PCBs and the social cost of the pollutants emitted by the recycling process. Based on the results of this study, it is expected that cost-benefit analyses reflecting the social cost of carbon and carbon dioxide emissions through life cycle assessment of the recycling process will continue to be actively conducted not only for PCB waste recycling, but also for the circular economy and recycling processes that have recently attracted attention.

A study on food sanitation in school textbooks was performed for 7 months from October 1, 1992 through may 31, 1993. A total of 243 textbooks (77 from elementary school level, 52 from junior high school level and 114 from senior high school level) were reviewed and analyzed. This study was performed in order to develop better method for teaching the subjet of food sanitation to students effectively. The results are as follows: 1) A total number of pages of textbooks dealing with food sanitation were 48 pages (0.53%) in elementary level textbooks, 38.05 pages (0.31%) in junior high school level and 105.05 pages (0.34%) in senior high school level. 2) 104.05 pages were allocated for the subject of food storage, 33 pages for insect and rodent control, 32 pages for food poisoning, 15 pages for food contamination and 7 pages for kitchen hygiene. 3) Of the four categories of textbooks, the numbr of pages dealing with food sanitation were 145 in home economics, 31 in physical education, 12 in social studies and 3.0 in science. 4) Home economics and physical education textbooks allocated many pages in dealing with food sanitation. Home economics textbooks had 88 pages for food storage, 26.05 pages for food poisoning, 7 pages for food contamination, and 2 pages for kitchen hygiene. Physical education textbooks had 15 pages about food storage, 4 pages for food poisoning, 5 pages for food contamination, and 1 page for kitchen hygiene. 5) Social studies textbooks had 5 pages for food storage, 4 pages for insect and rodent control, 3 pages for food contamination. 6) The number of pages dealing with food sanitation in elementary school level textbooks were 20 in physical education, 13 in home economics, 12 in social studies, 3 in science respectively. 7) The number of pages dealing with food sanitation in junior high school level textbooks were 31.05 in home economics, and 7.00 in physical education textbooks. 31.50 pages were about food storage, 6 pages about food poisoning, 13 pages about insect and rodent control, and 1 page about kitchen hygiene. 8) The number of pages dealing with food sanitation in senior high school level textbooks were 101.05 in home economics and 4 in physical education textbooks. 64 pages were about food storage, 21.05 about food poisoning, 13 about insect and rodent control, 4 about kitchen hygiene, and 3 about food contamination. 9) Pictures, drawings and tables were used in explaining food sanitation in the textbooks, 32 drawings of a total of 38 cuts in elementary school level textbooks, 8 pictures of 10 cuts in junior high school level and 13 tables of 14 cuts in senior high school level were used. 10) 5th grade textbooks of elementary school did not have a subject on food poisoning. Other grade textbooks in elementary school level did not contain a subject on food contamination and insect and rodent control. It's recommended that these subjects be contained in the textbooks. 11) It is necessary to teach a subject on health or health and environment independently and contain food sanitation in the subject. It is recommended that a textbook on health or health and environment be published and taught to students. 12) It is recommended that teachers specialized in health education be assigened to schools to teach health related subjects. 13) It is recommended that book publishers use the latest information in the textbooks and technical terms be unified.
