The eating habit unit in 'technology home economics' was taught with respect to 509 middle school 1st grade students, and preference acknowledgement were examined. Education effect was also examined by analyzing the changes in nutrition knowledge and eating befavour due to the education. Study results revealed that the level of acknowledgement for eating habit unit was positive while majority of the students thought that education contents were emphasized on the theory mainly because of insufficient class hours. Therefore, in order to let students know them better and make the best use of them, it is required to increase the class hours and research opportunity for practice class related with daily life. Through the middle school 'technology home economics' eating habit unit education, positive effect in part of eating habit area was observed and nutrition knowledge was enhanced after the education in both male and female students group.

As a result of analysis of dietary guidelines for Koreans, the item that appeared most frequently in picture books was 'Consume a variety of foods every day' (28.91%). The second most common dietary guidelines in the picture books was 'Enjoy a diet that incorporates local ingredients and is environmentally conscious' (21.88%). As a result of examining the main goal of 'eating right' in the Nuri Curriculum, 'healthy food' accounted for 36.72% and 'eating a variety of food' accounted for 30.47%. 'Eating with the right attitude' 4.69%, 'valuing food' 3.13%, and 'dining etiquette' 6.25% were low.

This study investigated the effects of a 7 week nutritional educational program on the unbalanced dietary habits, tastes, dietary attitudes, and nutritional knowledge of 127 fourth grade students. The subjects were selected from seven elementary schools that were under the supervision of the Dongbu Office of Education in Incheon. Results showed that most of the subjects were fully aware of the fact that they were on an unbalanced diet. It was also revealed that the main reason for their unbalanced diet was that they tended not to eat foods that did not fit their tastes. After implementation of the 7 week nutritional education, the subjects'unbalanced dietary habits significantly decreased, but their desires to fix their unbalanced diet failed to increase. The subjects'tastes showed a positive change in their perception towards vegetables, seafood, and seaweed to a significant degree; however, their appetite far meat, eggs, beans, frozen floods, and processed goods did not show any noticeable change.

This study was conducted to investigate the effective educational and promotional strategies for the Special Act on the Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life on the basis of the survey conducted on parents. First of all, its result showed that most parents are well aware of the main contents of the law. They answered that, when choosing safe favorite food for children, the most important part is the article "Regulations on the standards for children's favorite food should be reinforced." As for the index of safety management for children's dietary life, most respondents think safety the most important; housewives and nuclear family members choose safety (p<.01), while large family members do nutrition. For the question asking how they get the information on safety management for children's dietary life, most of them answered that they generally use mass media, family and friends as a reference. Those with high income usually get the information from special books, those between 30s and 50 from mass media, and those with college graduates from civil social groups (p<.05). In case of taking the safety education programs for children's dietary life, they told that the most necessary information is concerned with hygienic dietary life and nutrition labeling on processed food; housewives are interested in the latter, while working people in the former (p<.05). As a method of informing parents of the Special Act on the Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life, mass media such as TV and radio, and school education are suggested in this survey. Therefore, this study proposes that mass media be considered as the most effective way of promoting the Special Act on the Safety Management of Children's Dietary Life and getting information concerning the law.
