국가적 차원에서 저소득 청소년을 위한 교육프로그램이 많은 아동보호센터 및 지역센터를 중심으로 시행되고 있지만 그 취지와 목적에 부합하는 방과 후 교육이 제공되고 있는지 그 효과성에 대해서는 주목하지 않아왔다. 본 연구는 저소득 청소년을 위한 방과 후 교육의 질 관리에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있는 시점에서 영재교육의 일환으로 여겨져 왔던 창의성 교육을 조명하였다. 저소득층 청소년의 창의력 인성을 양성하기 위한 교육용 게임 프로그래밍 수업의 효과성에 대해 조사하였다. A시 5곳의 아동보호시설에서 운영되고 있는 게임프로그래밍 수업에 참여하고 있는 학생과 참여하지 않는 학생을 대상으로 창의적 인성검사를 실시하여 비교 분석하였다. 창의적 인성검사는 크게 자기확신(Self Confidence), 호기심(Curiosity), 인내(Patience), 개방성(Openess), 모험심(Adventure)으로 구분하여 t검증을 통해 유의한가를 분석하였다. 다섯 가지 영역의 평균은 실험집단이 높았으나, 이 중 '인내' 영역이 두드러진 차이를 보였고, 이로 인해 게임프로그래밍 수업을 받은 학생들이 수업을 받지 않은 학생들에 비해 과제 수행에 있어 인내와 끈기를 가지고 도전하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 자기 확신, 호기심, 개방성, 모험심 네 가지 영역에 대해서는 두드러지는 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 이에 대한 개선책으로 학생들에게 이 네 가지 영역을 균형적으로 길러주기 위하여 체계적으로 강사진의 교수법 연수, 교육과정의 개선, 학생 동기 유발, 학생 독려 및 관리 등 다양한 방법을 통해 수업의 질을 개선시켜 학생들의 창의적 인성 양성에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study was designed to examine the effects of integrated physical expressive activities on creativity in young children. Subjects of this study were 38 preschoolers at the age of 4 who consisted of both the experimental group of 18 children and the control group of 20 children. To measure the creativity of young children, this study adopted Figural Test A of Torrance Test of Creative Thinking (TTCT) as pre-and post-tests with both experimental and control group. The results showed that effects of integrated physical expressive activities varied by sub-dimensions of creativity; children's participation in integrated physical expressive activities was effective to improve openness, abstractness of titles, and elaboration even if overall creativity and fluency increased after their program participation. Also, originality was the only sub-dimension that was not improved. It implied that integrated physical expressive activities have partial positive effects on some sub-dimensions of creativity.

This study aims to demonstrate the importance of information literacy instructions by showing effects of information literacy skills on critical thinking dispositions among high school students. We collected 761 survey responses from high school students and conducted multiple regression analysis to examine the relationships between the two variables. The findings show that (1) students' information search skills affect their pursuit of truth, openness, inquiring mind, and objectivity, (2) the information analytic skills influence the levels of pursuit of truth, openness, and objectivity, (3) the information presentation and delivery skills affect the levels of inquiring mind, organization, and self-trust, and, (4) the information evaluation skills influence the levels of pursuit of truth, openness, inquiring mind, organization, objectivity, and self-trust. However, students' synthesis and application skills of students did not affect their critical thinking dispositions. To sum up, we observed the influence of information literacy skills on critical thinking dispositions. The results of this study provide foundations for maintaining and developing information literacy instructions in school libraries.

This study aims to theoretically examine the validity of argument that market-opening will improve the audience welfare of media and cultural contents. To accomplish its purpose, first of all, this study classifies the spectrum of approaches on cultural market-opening in Korea. Then, it examines, by the concept of public goods, whether market-opening can bring on economic gains for audience as consumer. Finally, this study inspects the profit and loss for audience as citizen which will be brought on by market-opening on the grounds of democratic value. As a result of this study, the improvement of economic efficiency and competence, the expansion of consumer‘s choices, the preservation of cultural value that the positive approach on market-opening is promising cannot be justified theoretically and logically. Therefore, at least in theoretically, the conclusion that market-opening cannot improve the audience welfare is deduced. However, the objection of market-opening cannot be related to the distorted protectionism of nation culture. On the contrary, this study suggests the condition of market-opening debate must be a opportunity to reconsider and reform of cultural diversity in Korea.

Despite recent social movements to protect homosexuals' rights in Korea, psychological research investigating attitudes toward homosexuals has been largely ignored. The present study examined Koreans' explicit and implicit attitudes toward homosexuals and how openness is related to them. College students (N = 56) responded to questionnaires assessing explicit attitudes toward homosexuals and openness, one of the five factors of personality. They then took an Implicit Association Test designed to assess implicit attitudes toward homosexuals. We found that participants in general had more negative explicit attitudes toward gay men than lesbians. Implicit prejudice against gay men was also higher than lesbians. There was no participant sex difference in implicit attitudes toward gay men. However, male participants had more negative implicit attitudes toward lesbians than female participants did; in fact, females' implicit attitudes toward lesbians were not biased. While openness was negatively related only to explicit prejudice, values, one of the facets of openness, was negatively related to both explicit and implicit prejudice. This was the first study in Korea that investigated both explicit and implicit attitudes toward gay men and lesbians.

In this paper, the fault diagnosis scheme for PMSM drives has been proposed to maintain control performance under a switch open-phase fault of inverter. When the open-phase fault occurs, the stator resistances of PMSM are estimated by Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) in real time and can appear differently according to the location of fault occurrence to check the fault detection and identification. The control algorithm is configured without the additional device and low cost by adding the existing control program. Also, by using motor parameter the estimated stator resistance value improves the control performance of the controller affected by parameter variation. The feasibility of the proposed fault diagnosis algorithm is validated in simulation and experiment.

Since 2013, Korean government announced 'government 3.0' to promote public data open policy. As a result, related websites were constructed by the government. Using these websites and public data open cases, we introduced and analyzed current domestic public open data status and case analysis in Korea Republic. For websites, websites such as 'seoul open data plaza' were selected. For related cases, websites such as 'http://www.zillow.com' and 'http://blog.safecast.org' were selected. For domestic cases, a casebook which produced by Korea 'National Information Society Agency' were used. Domestic cases referred to this article were based on this book.

As an alternative for restoring a sense of community which has been broken up due to urban residence redevelopment, this study focuses on structural characteristics according to physical location of central squares in apartment complexes. Central squares do not simply function as inner-aiming and self-completed spaces for the residents, but their role can be expanded to a core location which encourages neighbors to communicate and interact with each other. The suppositions for this study are as follows. Structural characteristics according to the physical locations of the central squares in apartment complexes affect apartment residents' openness toward their neighbors and non-residents' accessibility to the square. At the same time, it influences the sense of community. In addition, psychological distance which is represented as psychological openness and accessibility forms a reciprocal relationship with the sense of community. For the study, we first categorized central squares as either open-structure or closed-structure based on how accessible it is from outside the apartment complex. According to these types of central squares, Sillim Prugio, Banghak Deasang Town Hyundai, Gwanak Prugio and Banghak Samsung Raemian 1 which have similar conditions and different structures were selected as sites of the study. Then each apartment complex was classified by apartment residents and non-residents so that eight groups were prepared for the survey. The results of the questionnaire survey especially regarding measuring the sense of community, psychological openness and accessibility indicated that the suppositions were right. Hence, the sense of community, psychological openness and accessibility are high in a central square with an open-structure while high standards of psychological openness and accessibility guarantee a positive sense of community. This study is meaningful in that it verifies that the physical location of central squares is reciprocally related to psychological openness, accessibility and a sense of community. At the same time, this study may serve as theoretical grounds for the planning and construction of practical central squares.

We study the relationship between the closedness of public service recruitment system and the corruption rampant between private firms and public servants. Empirically we test our claim that the closedness of public service recruitment system tends to heighten the corruption level of each country. Our results show that the closedness is positively correlated with bureaucracy corruption levels indexed by IMD, WEF, and World Bank.

The aim of this study is to confirm the effect of the experience of media education and the media literacy, the ability to understand and use media rightly. In the research results in this study, the experience of media education has a positive effect on the critical thinking disposition. Especially, the experience of media education in school influences all constituents of the critical thinking disposition positively and the experience of media education in home also does the constituents except for only truth-seeking positively. The industrial motivation, one of factors of the media literacy, has influence on all constituents of the critical thinking disposition, and the technical use ability, one of them, does the constituents except for systematicity. And inquisitiveness, objectivity, systematicity, and self-confidence of the critical thinking disposition are affected by the self-expression of the media literacy. The media audience factor has open-mindness, systematicity, and self-confidence of the disposition, and the media language factor does truth-seeking, open-mindness, and objectivity.
