Students have to effectively get lots of knowledge and technique for practical education. Usability is one of the most important factors that have to be considered for user-centered design. Students who study design have to recognize the importance of usability and learn the method of problem solving considering usability. For this, the application of project-based and participatory learning for usability education was studied. Study team was organized including graduate, undergraduate, and high school students. Students team identified a research topic, and then studied the topic. Usability evaluation and design improvement was performed in this study. Students could learn usablity evaluation method and design method through the process.

This study examines the perception of professionalism of the design practitioners working in the architectural design firms. Data from the survey questionnaire were collected from 271 participants. Major findings were as follows: 1) Professional ethics and research were the two most important components of the profession. 2) Experience was the most important factor determining pay, promotion, and competency. 3) Job-related educational program was most highly supported by the company. 4) Participants' perceptions toward licensing and professional association were negative. 5) Self-accomplishment and aptitude were the main reasons to choose the profession. 6) Independent attitudes were found toward intellectual property. 7) Participants felt proud of their job but thought their social status was below medium.

This study is about the class model that can demonstrate the modeling ability using the spatial perception capability on basic modeling required for jewelry design majors and the most important perspective method in jewelry design. The outputs were obtained by presenting the topics for creative activities to students after theoretical explaining how to present a spatial sense and presenting practical classes on basic shapes, stereoscopic shapes and perspective methods. While the existing basic molding classes were only practical classes, this study presented students with a class model that allows them to use creativity, basic perspective, and spatial sense together. And it was found out evaluation method that both students and professors can relate to each other through the intensive education effects and clear evaluation standards. I hope that this paper will continue to study more diverse materials and convergent class models.

As we enter a super-aged society, senior citizens' health issues are affecting a variety of fields, including medicine, economics, society, and culture. In this study, we intend to draw implications from unstructured data analysis such as text mining and social network analysis in order to apply digital health care service design for improving the cognitive ability of senior citizens. The research procedure of this study improved the service design methodology into a process suited to the analysis of unstructured data, and six steps were applied. Related keywords that exist on social media, focusing on cognitive improvement and healthcare for senior citizens, were collected and analyzed, and based on these results, the direction of healthcare service design for improving on the cognitive abilities of senior citizens was derived. The results of this study are expected to have academic and practical implications for expanding the scope of the use of big data analysis methods and improving existing healthcare service development methodologies.

The current formal and memorized design repetition training and practice is wandering in the uniform flat design thinking expression. To change these two-dimensional current issues into a three-dimensional design method, set the direction for each grade level under the integrated convergence educational goal and carry out projects step by step to understand design, the principle of spatial composition, the introduction of traditional design history, and the overall design of craft design. Creative and practical skills such as approach should be cultivated. Designers can only be produced through systematic education and training. In order to lead society and succeed, a designer who has experienced solutions and countermeasures on how to adapt themselves to the demands of various changes in the times must come to the field. Education experts insisted on innovation of the organizational structure and subject of the education system, and emphasized the importance of education in response to the rapid pace of change in the 21st century. This study aims to propose an educational system that combines academic research with a structural approach to tasks by setting a project that reflects the needs of society for convergence practice in which design and adjacent disciplines are linked through understanding and analysis of these issues.

문구ㆍ팬시 업종의 생산품은 아동용품과 문구류가 대부분을 차지한다. 이러한 제품의 특성으로 인해 아동들에게 새로운 제품을 시장에 신속하게 소개하는 제품개발력이 경쟁우위의 요소가 된다. 이러한 경쟁우위 전략을 위해서는 창의적인 개념을 가지고 디자인 할 수 있는 능력과 이러한 개별적인 능력을 바탕으로 통합적인 신제품개발 전략과 시스템을 구현하는 것이 우선 과제가 될 것이다. 지금까지는 신제품개발을 단순하게 프로젝트 차원에서 각기 관리하는 방식에서 탈피하여 총체적인 신제품개발 프로세스를 분석하고 그 시스템을 구축해야 한다. 이 논문에서는 신속하고 창의적인 제품개발을 할 수 있도록 통합적 신제품개발 시스템을 구현하고자 한다.

In this study, I would like to suggest an idal model of web navigation design which can enhance users' web usability. I would like to prove that when users enjoy web navigation design, they access information much more effectively. Using a survey, I suggest some types of web navigation design for users. After that, I conducted an experiment with 4 types of web navigation designs, which have been developed to reflect varying stages of comprehensibility. My survey focused on three points. First I measured the time they spent to search for information. Secondly, I tested whether they lost their way while searching for information and if they did lose their way, I checked whether they could recover from their errors and find their way back. Thirdly, I investigated whether layout, location and size of the web navigation design factors affected usability. The results of my survey indicated that users spend the shortest time, have the easiest interface, and have least error incidence under the web navigation design to enhance old-aged users' web usability. Thus, developing a universal web navigation design can encourage people to be more involved with the internet.

오늘날 휴대폰은 20~30대의 젊은 사용자 층뿐 아니라, 고령사용자 및 아동사용자들로 확대되면서 다양한 사용자층을 포함하게 되었다. 이렇게 사용자층은 다양해지고 있으나, 휴대폰 제조사들은 다양한 사용자 계층의 인지능력과 요구사항을 반영하진 못한 채, 20~30대의 젊은 주 사용자 층을 기준으로 디자인하고 있다. 특히, 하드웨어적인 디자인 측면에서는 다각화가 이루어지고 있는 편이나, 소프트웨어 측면에서의 시도는 거의 미비하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 다양한 사용자 계층에 따른 유동적 인지능력 및 요구사항, 감성에 맞는 맞춤형 My메뉴(Menu)를 설정할 수 있는 휴대폰 UI 디자인을 제안하고자 한다. 특히, 주 사용자 층과는 다른 사용패턴을 보이는 어린이들을 위한 개인화된 My메뉴를 설정하는 인터랙션 UI 디자인 개발하여 제안하였다. 본 논문은 먼저, 문헌과 사례분석으로 통해 기존 휴대폰 제조사와 서비스 사업자들의 메뉴 개인화를 위한 다양한 시도를 조사하였다. 또한, 어린이들의 사용 패턴과 메뉴의 사용 빈도 등을 파악하기 위하여 사용자 조사 방법을 두가지 방법으로 진행하였다. 우선 2006년 7월말부터 8월 10일까지 2주에 걸쳐, 만 9세~12세의 초등학교 아동사용자 남여 10명을 대상으로 휴대폰 사용의 전반적인 특성과 사용행태을 파악하고, 환경설정 및 주 사용메뉴를 조사하기 위한 심층인터뷰를 시행하였다. 그리고 1차 인터뷰 내용을 바탕으로 설문지를 작성하였다. 이번 설문에서는 주 사용메뉴가 무엇이며 사용빈도는 어느 정도 되는지 선호하는 메뉴형식과 용어의 어려움은 없었는지를 파악했다. 또한 사용자가 자주 사용하는 메뉴를 대기화면에 가져다 놓고 싶은지를 물어 직접적인 휴대폰 대기화면의 사용여부를 파악하였다. 2006년 12월 일주일동안, 1차 인터뷰의 아동사용자와 동일한 연령대의 아동사용자 남여 총46명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 더욱 정량화된 데이터를 얻을 수 있었다. 이를 바탕으로 사용자 연령과 성별에 따라 기본 디폴트 My메뉴(Menu)를 제공하는 방법, My메뉴의 항목과 우선순위, 테마를 설정하여 개인화하는 UI 디자인을 도출하였다. 본 연구는 아동사용자를 대상으로 휴대폰의 소프트웨어 UI 중 메뉴를 사용자 맞춤형으로 설정할 수 있는 방법과 인터랙션을 디자인하여 제시하였다. 이러한 소프트웨어적인 UI 개인화 시도는 다양한 사용자 계층의 요구사항을 반영하는 보다 효율적인 방법으로써 사용자 만족과 사용성을 높이는 효과를 가져올 수 있을 것이다.
