This study aims to develop and validate Cultural Competence Scale for prospective social workers. The scale adopted three constructs of cultural competence, which include multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills. It was made up with concrete episodes based on which respondents rate sets of competing statements relating to multicultural awareness, knowledge, and skills. The score of each item was calculated by subtracting each score of non-cultural awareness, knowledge, and skills from the corresponding score of cultural awareness, knowledge, and skills when cultural statements got higher scores than did non-cultural statements. Each score was summed up to make a total cultural competence score. Through preliminary and main test, 16 episodes and corresponding sets of statements were selected for the final version. The final scale showed satisfactory levels of reliability and validity. Based on the results, implications for the application and the further improvement of this scale were discussed.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the biodegradability of the micro-contaminant, clindamycin antibiotic, under nitrifying activated sludge (AS) condition. Based on the short-term clindamycin degradation batch test at an environmentally relevant concentration (10 ppb), clindamycin disappearance half-life ($t_{0.5}$) was estimated to be 9.1hrs under nitrification condition. However, biodegradation was slower (26.1 hrs) when nitrification was inhibited. Also, one clindamycin metabolite was detected under nitrification condition, but not under inhibited nitrification condition. Based on the mass spectra, the metabolite is suspected to be clindamycin-sulfoxide (m/z 441), which is known to have antimicrobial activity. The metabolite was not degraded during the long term batch study, suggesting that under the conditions tested, biodegradation of clindamycin in activated sludge systems is ineffective.

A LIDAR can rapidly generate 3D points by densely sampling the surfaces of targets using laser pulses, which has been efficiently utilized to reconstruct 3D models of the targets automatically. Due to this advantage, LIDARs are increasingly applied to the fields of Defense and Security, for examples, being employed to intelligently guided missiles and manned/unmanned reconnaissance planes. For the prior verification of the LIDAR applicability, this study aims at generating simulated LIDAR data. Here, we derived the sensor equation by modelling the geometric relationships between the LIDAR sub-modules, such as GPS, IMU, LS and the systematic errors associated with them. Based on this equation, we developed a program to generate simulated data with the system parameters, the systematic errors, the flight trajectories and attitudes, and the reference terrain model given. This program had been applied to generating simulated LIDAR data for urban areas. By analyzing these simulated data, we verified the accuracy and usefulness of the simulation. The simulator developed in this study will provide economically various test data required for the development of application algorithms and contribute to the optimal establishment of the flight and system parameters.

The 21st century society is becoming globalized rapidly due to mass immigration and South Korea has become a multicultural nation since 2007 with over one million foreigners living here. Due to these social environmental changes, there was a need to provide multicultural programs and services in public libraries. In order to develop multicultural library services, we need to look into what librarians and users of public libraries know of the existing services. We assumed that comparing the two groups, librarians and users, and establishing a fit model would be the most effective way to provide information. According to the survey, there were differences in understanding between the two groups. By providing services that help fill in the gap, public libraries could be closer to multicultural families, and help them become integrated into Korean society. We have presented a multicultural service model based on the results of the survey.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of career support and teacher relations of parents in order to determine the career determination of multicultural youths, and to confirm the influence of career preparation between parental career and care support and teacher relations. To this end, data from 2017 (the 7th year) was used among the data from the Multicultural Youth Panel Survey (MAPS). According to the analysis results, first, career support, teacher relations, and career preparation of multicultural youth parents have a positive impact on career determination. Second, the importance of the relative influence of career preparation, which is an internal context factor, was also confirmed in the process of determining the career path of multicultural youths. Third, it was analyzed that the higher the career and childcare support of multicultural youth parents, the more positive the teacher relationship, the higher the career determination. Career preparation was confirmed to play a role in mediating career support and teacher relations among multicultural youth parents in determining career paths. Based on the results of this analysis, practical alternatives were proposed to enhance the career determination of multicultural youths.

한국의 어두운 역사적 배경 속에서 '혼혈아'라 불리던 국제결혼자녀 또는 미군아버지로 부터 버림받은 사생아들은 한국 사회에 포용이 될 수 없었다. 더불어, 그 이후 유입된 새터민, 외국인 노동자, 중국동포의 다문화 가정자녀들도 외국인도 내국인도 아닌, 외계인으로 사회적 고립으로 말미암아 소외계층으로 밀려나야 했는데, 이는 단일 민족주의를 긍지로, 여기는 한국의 주류층과의 차이가 차별(discrimination)로 변질된 현상에서 원인을 찾을 수 있다. 하지만, 이들의 차이는 '잠재적 역량'이 될 수 있는 이면적 장점을 내포하고 있다는 사실을 한국의 사회. 문화적 신념에 의한 배타적 성향을 지닌 한국 주류층들은 물론이거니와, 다문화사회 구성원들조차 인식하지 못하거나, 활용되지 못하는 것이 현 실정 이었다. 글로벌 사회의 도래로, 다문화 사회를 바라보는 전체사회의 의식변화를 요구하는 사회 각계각층의 목소리가 높아지고 있으며 이에 대한 활발한 연구가 시작되고 있다. 우리나라도 체류외국인 100만 명 돌파의 시대에 돌입 후 정부는 다문화사회 도래에 대한 다양한 대비책을 마련하는 현 상황에서 다문화사회 구성원들의 정부시책에 대한 관심과 자체적 노력이 더욱 요구되며, 이런 노력 하에 전체사회의 변화가 용이해질 뿐만 아니라, 다문화사회의 미래인 그들의 자녀들을 위해 교육적, 제도적, 정책적 인프라구축의 노력에 결실을 가져오리라 본다. 한국사회가 송출국에서 수민국가 대열에 서게 된 이 시점에서 다른 국가들의 이민과 교육정책을 살펴보고, 한국의 이주자 대상별로 전반적 다문화 가정 자녀의 교육 현실 및 한국 다문화 교육 정책의 문제점을 살펴보고, 이에 대한 미래지향적 다문화 교육에 대한 앞으로 한국의 다문화교육이 나아가야 할 방향을 제시해 보고자 한다.

'다목이'는 일반 곰취를 모본으로 한대리곰취를 부본으로 교배하여 병에 강하고 수량성이 뛰어난 특성을 가진 곰취 신품종으로 고령지농업연구소에서 육성하였다. 경관농업은 청정 농산물의 생산, 가공과 서비스가 연계된 농업의 6차산업화를 대표하는 농업형태이다. 곰취를 이용한 산채류 경관농업을 구현하기 위해 '다목이'와 자생식물의 혼식을 통한 친환경 생산기술을 개발코자 하였다. 인공상토로 채운 화분에 곤달비와 삼백초, 백리향, 라벤더 등 국내 외 자생식물을 혼식하여 각 식물의 지상부와 지하부 생육을 조사하였다. 삼백초, 라벤더, 이질풀, 웜우드, 어성초는 '다목이'와 혼식하여 지상부 생체중 214.1~362.4g, 지하부 생체중 171.0~258.5g으로 생육이 대등하거나 양호한 결과를 보였다. 반면에 생강과 박하는 '다목이'의 생육량을 지상부 생체중 90.9~123.6g, 지하부 생체중 54.0~110.3g으로 현저히 감소시켰다. 백리향과 좀씀바귀, 제충국, 옥잠화는 '다목이'에 의해 생육이 극도로 저하되거나 고사하였다. 배초향은 '다목이'와 서로의 생육이 감소된 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 '다목이'와의 혼식은 경관농업의 목적에 따라 삼백초, 라벤더, 이질풀, 웜우드, 어성초가 적합한 것으로 생각되었다.

A previous study evaluated the seismic response of typical multi-span simply supported (MSSS) and multi-span continuous (MSC) steel-girder bridges in the central and southeastern United States. The results showed that the bridges were vulnerable to damage resulting from impact between decks, and large ductility demands on nonductile columns. Furthermore, fixed and expansion bearings were likely to fail during strong ground motion. In this paper, several retrofit measures to improve the seismic performance of typical multi-span simply supported and multi-span continuous steel girder bridges are evaluated, including the use of elastomeric bearings, lead-rubber bearings, and restrainer cables. It is determined that iead-rubber bearings are the most effective retrofit measure for reducing the seismic vulnerability of typical bridges. While isolation provided by elastomeric bearings limits the forces into the columns, the added flexibility results in pounding between decks in the MSSS steel-girder bridge. Restrainer cables, which are becoming a common retrofit measure, are only moderately effective in reducing the seismic vulnerability of MSSS and MSC steel girder bridges.

According to the increasing education concerns for students of multi-cultural family, it has been focused about the multi-cultural education's Model and the study of teaching way, something like that. However, the study of computer education is very rare and not continued. But Multi-culture students' information gap is remarkably high as compared with common students. So, the measures for reducing the information gap is needed for their future study and future life. Therefore, this thesis will be suggested computer education as an additional education process for the students of multi-cultural family to be easily accustomed to Korean education currents and reduce the information gap for students of multi-cultural family. To verify the validity, I will conduct the survey for multi-cultural experts. After that, the quality of education in stages will be constructed.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among multicultural experience, multicultural acceptance, cultural empathy, and empathy in adolescents. Moreover, the study attempted to reveal that how multicultural experience had an effect on empathy and whether multicultural acceptance and cultural empathy had an indirect effect. Based on previous researches, a study model was established. Data were collected and analyzed from 266 adolescents. The results were as follows. There was positive correlation between main variables and adolescents' multicultural experience had an effect on empathy via the path of mediating multicultural acceptance and cultural empathy. Therefore, it was suggested to develop programs which improve multicultural acceptance and cultural empathy. However, they should be offered differentially and implemented sustainedly in stages.
