This study has attempted to study self-cultural skills about my experience in life with a spouse with a physical disability with myself. The 'autoethnography' is a combination of an autobiography describing a personal and subjective life and a ethnography that studies the culture of a social group, and it is a way of expressing self-narrative experiences and experiences related to the context or context of a social group. The analysis showed that the researcher divided into three periods, one for the researcher himself, and defined the first for 'the single life that seemed to last forever'. The second period was the meeting of the disabled facility called 'The Village of the Virgin Mary'. The Third period is the time of meeting with the disabled partner and the life with him, and it is the time to experience a spouse with a rather sensitive disability. Last, it's the time of understanding and effort for my physical disability partner. Qualitative research is a research process that must be understood based on a unique methodological research tradition that explores social or human problems. And, we expect to expand into more analytical and systematic research in future research.

It is not easy for information users to find books that are suitable for them in a knowledge information society. There is a growing need for libraries to break away from traditional services and provide user-tailored recommendation services, but there are few qualitative studies on user satisfaction so far. In this study, a user-customized book recommendation was performed by applying Apriori, a correlation analysis algorithm, and satisfaction factors were analyzed in depth through interviews. The experimental data was the loan data of 100 people who used the most frequently used loan data for 10 years from 2009 to 2019 of the S library in Seoul. The interviewees of the experiment were those who could be interviewed in depth. After the correlation analysis, the concepts and categories derived by analyzing the interview data were 59 concepts, 6 sub-categories, and 2 upper categories, respectively. The upper categories were 'reading' and 'book recommendation service'. In the 'reading' category, there were 16 concepts of motivation for reading, 8 concepts of preferred books, and 12 concepts of expected effects. Also, in the category of 'reading recommendation service', there were 10 'reflection factors', 4 'reflection methods', and 9 'satisfaction factors'.

This paper examines the expression of hand appeared in animation. The hand changed its role from the status of the traditional representation to the enlarged meaning; the hand image has shown the individual consciousness and the social reality that has been reflected to our society. On the basis of clarify these concern, the hand appeared in animation gives a new communication and another way to express reality. Futhermore, the hand is no longer an image with realistic representation which generated a form of the consciousness of human being based on the reflection of its own self-identify through the exaggeration and transformation. This means that the hand as a whole is represented by naming one of its parts or vice versa. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper to study the effect and signification process which a synecdoche creates on the work of animation. In conclusion, the expression of hand as new interpretation appeared in animation adapts itself to changing the perspective on animation.

A video is a vivid medium similar to human's visual-linguistic experiences, since it can inculcate a sequence of situations, actions or dialogues that can be told as a story. In this study, we propose story learning/regeneration frameworks from videos with successive event order supervision for contextual coherence. The supervision induces each episode to have a form of trajectory in the latent space, which constructs a composite representation of ordering and semantics. In this study, we incorporated the use of kids videos as a training data. Some of the advantages associated with the kids videos include omnibus style, simple/explicit storyline in short, chronological narrative order, and relatively limited number of characters and spatial environments. We build the encoder-decoder structure with successive event order embedding, and train bi-directional LSTMs as sequence models considering multi-step sequence prediction. Using a series of approximately 200 episodes of kids videos named 'Pororo the Little Penguin', we give empirical results for story regeneration tasks and SEOE. In addition, each episode shows a trajectory-like shape on the latent space of the model, which gives the geometric information for the sequence models.

The purpose of the study is to investigate the application and utility of emergency rescue education and derive limitations, improvements and development directions of university education based on the field experience of 119 emergency medical technician(EMT)s. The research subjects were six new 119 emergency medical technician(EMT)s within three years of starting their first-aid service in the field. After conducting in-depth narrative interviews, the analysis was performed using Colaizzi method. The 82 formulated meanings were derived from significant statements. From formulated meanings, 23 themes, 4 theme clusters, 2 categories were identified. The four theme clusters were 'The effectiveness of university education', 'The limitations of university education', 'The direction of improvement in educational methodology' and 'The direction of improvement in educational contents. University education has been helpful overall, but limitations are observed at the same time, suggesting that it should be developed through the improvement of educational methodologies (i.e. problem-based learning, field case review, education through role-playing, simulation education, strengthening skill ect.) and educational content (i.e. training tailored to the field, education focused on trauma or cardiac arrest, expansion of triage education in disaster management, reinforcement of education on-site safety, education on special patients, diverse guidance and faculty for different perspectives).

Korea has suffered numerous casualties due to a lot of accidents caused by safety insufficiency in recent years. Therefore, safety education is more important than ever before, and 'how to educate with what contents' is an important subject. Especially, experience education is effective rather than theoretical education because of the nature of safety education. However, it is not easy to design and develop these safety education programs. There is not much opportunity to access first-aid training, which is a part of safety education, unless it is compulsory to learn through public institutions. As a result, program utilization on safety education in Korea is still insufficient to what it should be. With that taken into account, this study proposed an effective serious game with fun and immersion for medical first-aid education. To do this, we analyzed five medical games through 20 cases of first-aid applications and elicited five factors that enhance the usability of serious games. With an analysis of five medical games, we selected one game to borrow the game rules, and applied the elicited five elements in the forms of level-up structure, iterative learning, compensation outcomes, competition system, and information transfer. The proposed medical education functional games should have 1) a character that plays a role of a patient, 2) a narrative flow that shows the situation, 3) the user should judge the situation and induce first aid. 4) compensation, levels, and simple repetition should be designed, and 5) information should be shared with the others in the given community. The results of this study is believed to contribute to enhance the medical emergency education in Korea.

정보통신 기술과 컴퓨터의 급속한 발달은 과거에 불가능했던 많은 일들을 가능하게 하였다. 디지털 기술의 발전은 기존의 추상적인 것을 구체적으로 체험 가능한 것으로 발전시켰으며, 이를 통해 인간은 경험을 확장 시킬 수 있게 되었다. 즉, 인간의 체험, 인식, 가치, 행위가 가상의 공간으로 무한하게 확장될 수 있기 때문이다. 이러한 배경 속에서 현대 사람들은 체험 공간이 현실 세계와는 다른 비일상적 체험과 욕구실현을 구현할 수 있는 공간이 되기를 원한다. 이에 따라서 체험 공간의 논의가 과거의 시각적 정보전달만을 위한 체험 공간이 아닌 정보와 흥미, 체험을 동시에 줄 수 있는 노력들이 요구, 진행되고 있다. 체험 공간에 있어서 엔터테인먼트 적인 요소가 효과적인 방법론으로 제시되고 있지만, 아직도 시청각적 흥미위주의 직선적인 공간의 이야기로 관람자를 일회적인 관람에서 그치게 하고 있다. 매체를 나열식으로 던져 준다고 해서 사람들이 흥미를 느끼거나 몰입을 경험하지는 못한다. 그러기 위해선 인터렉티브 스토리텔링(Interactive Storytelling)의 인터렉티비티한 요소가 체험 공간에서 효과적일 수 있다. 인터렉티비티는 인터렉티브 스토리텔링의 특징 중 하나로, 이와 같은 인터렉티비티 요소들은 관람자에게 다양한 선택과 통제의 기회를 주기 때문이다. 이에 따라서 체험 공간 속에서 관람자는 스스로 매체와 매체간의 반복과 조합을 통해 관람자 개개인이 새로운 시나리오를 쓸 수 있게 되고 체험 공간은 유동적인 공간이 될 수 있게 된다. 따라서 본 연구는 체험 공간이 관람자 스스로가 만들어가는 공간이 되고, 지각적 체험과 정신적 체험까지 경험할 수 있는 체험의 장이 될 수 있도록 인터렉티브 스토리텔링의 가치를 재해석하고자 하였다. 이러한 인터렉티브 스토리텔링이 공간 속에서 의미를 획득할 수 있는지에 대한 연구를 진행하고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 기존의 체험 공간에 대한 연구와 인터렉티브 스토리텔링의 기존 사례를 선행하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 인터렉티브 스토리텔링이 체험 공간 안에서 사람들에게 일회적인 경험을 주는 것이 아닌 사람들이 직접 그 공간의 스토리를 만들 수 있는 새로운 체험 공간의 가능성을 가지고 있음을 발견하였다. 이에 따라서 월드컵이 열리는 대표적인 도시인 상암동에 한국 소프트웨어진흥원이 주관하여 건설되는 ‘상암 디지털 파빌리온’을 대상으로 인터렉티브 스토리텔링을 기반으로 한 체험공간 디자인을 작품 형태로 기획 되었으며, 기본적인 시나리오 컨셉을 제시하고 공간의 구조도, 체험 과정(Process)등이 제시된다. 이러한 연구는 기존 체험 공간이 직선적인 내러티브에서 벗어나 체험 공간 속 협업의 가능성을 열어주어 새로운 소통의 장을 마련해 준다는 긍정적인 효과를 기대할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine parents' mental model of media environment and children's media use and to provide some educational suggestions. For this purpose, twelve parents of second-graders to fourth-graders sampled in elementary schools were interviewed with three activities such as a word-association experiment, a sentence completion task and a in-depth interview. The result was categorized into 8 elements such as interaction, source of supply and adverse effects. Furthermore, the analysis on the mental model of media use shows that firstly, the parents understand modern media reflects competence while they have a feeling of fear and newness on media themselves. Secondly, the parents show an ambivalent understanding on media use in terms of both negative and positive effects and have a tendency to control them. Another finding is the fact that the parents understand digital media as a representation of both connection and disconnection. Also, the parents realize media as a cause of conflict and as a place for reconciliation as well. Finally, it is showed that media is not only a personal territory but also a part of social system in the parents' understanding. Based on these findings, some interpretations and parents' educational applications are provided in terms of the Meyrowitz(1998; 1999)'s three perspectives on media.

This is a pilot study of multifaceted longitudinal research project to explore educational experiences of students with multicultural family backgrounds in Korea. Especially for this pilot study, I selected three foreign-born immigrant youths and tried to explore how these youths describe constraints of their learning experience in different culture. The data for this study were mainly collected through qualitative research methods. For a better understanding of the research participants' perceptions in this study, narrative inquiry and series of semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted for a period of four months which corresponds to one semester of school system in Korea. As a result, this study found that there is an urgent need to establish a systemic and developmentaly appropriate language education programs that ensure educating the language to the foreign-born immigrant youths because their academic achievement, interpersonal relationships, and future depend greatly on the fluency of Korean language. It was also found that it is necessary to take appropriate educational actions in supporting alternative schools where the foreign-born immigrant youths can fully and seriously considered as a whole person. Although this study has some limitations in examining every single aspect of the current state of education of students with multicultural backgrounds in Korea, it provides deep insight into some of their initial educational experiences and proposes several ways to improve these educational programs for them.

The purpose of this study is to discuss the elements and meanings of the performative scenography which has been revealed through the new directorial interpretation and deconstruction process of the musical 『All Shook Up』. The performative scenography characteristics after postmodernism aim to create individual active perceptions and various social meanings through audience's voluntary and particular emergence. To this end, the theoretical foundation of scenography was examined by periods in advance. Based on this, I attempted to establish performative scenography for synthesized scenic and media design through the reconstruction process for the 『All Shook Up Travelers』. As a result, I set up visual narrative based world of 『All Shook Up Travelers』 which was produced by text-based intense images for a direct medium in order to expand actors' inner narrative and established unique performative scenography of its own: 1. enhancing the adapted one's narratives for the actors' and audience's co-existence and detachment, 2. delivering its own independent meanings which have double meanings, 3. encouraging audience's critical and active perception experiences through collage and montage of media.
