The purposes of this study were to investigate pre-service mathematics teachers' perceptions of the role of cooperating teachers and teacher interactions during teaching practicum. Thirty-four pre-service mathematics teachers who finished student teaching participated in the study. The researcher collected data from various sources such as a questionnaire, interviews, and written documents. According to the results of the study, more than 50 percent of the participants showed negative responses to all of the questionnaire items on teaching activities or guidance of cooperating teachers. Cooperating teachers mainly played a role in the stage of reflection of student teacher's teaching practice, and they provided specific feedback and guidance of teaching and learning methods and contents. Cooperating teachers played roles as (mathematics) teacher educators, classroom observers, and co-teachers, but their roles as teacher educators or co-teachers should be more stressed for pre-service mathematics teachers' professional development.

In 2017, there was an accident in which a cadet onboard training was killed. This cadet worked 12 hours a day. No regulation has yet been laid down to define hours and breaks for interns. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the working status of commissioned training, the satisfaction survey of commissioned training, and to improve the treatment of commissioned trainees. The survey was conducted on students commissioned from merchant vessels, and 461 respondents answered the questionnaire. The results of the survey are as follows. First, 43.0 % of cadets said that they worked 10 hours a day on average, regardless of the vessel type, and 35.2 % said that the average rest time was 8 hours. 15.6 % of respondents said they had worked more than 12 hours. Unreasonable order cases deviating from the purpose of education were "making ramen, working at rest time, instruction of dangerous work, making night snack and private errands." Second, the satisfaction level of cadets who practiced on LNG carriers was high, while the satisfaction level of cadets on bulk carriers and container carriers was low. It was confirmed that the ship's size, ship's age, working hours, rest time and training support costs had little minor effect on educational satisfaction. Lastly, 56.8 % of the cadets answered 'commissioned training is like work.' Based on the results of the questionnaires, we proposed the following improvement methods; providing legislation for working hours and rest time for commissioned training cadets, protection system against violence and sexual harassment and victim protection. This study focuses on the working and rest time of merchant ship's cadet and it is meaningful to investigated the onboard training satisfaction by ship's type, size and age.

Some major companies representing Korea's ship building actively take part in building Oil & Gas offshore which produces both oil and gas from the ocean. Merchant ships become enlarge and high-powered electric as well as increasing number of Oil & Gas offshore. Thus, maritime university cadets are pushed to participate in onboard training on 440V to 6,660V high voltage ships. Although they have difficulty and danger from onboard training course on high voltage ships, their curriculum is still focusing on the training on low voltage ships. Therefore, this study is to suggest the upcoming education measures based on the questionnaire survey and analysis from the Maritime cadets who had experienced in high voltage ships.

The purpose of this study is to explore factors inducing dental hygiene student's activeness during clinical practice. A conceptual study was conducted for dental hygiene students who participated in the clinical practice for the first semester of 2019. The focus question was, 'What factors induced activeness during clinical practice?', a total of 33 statements were drawn by analyzing the responses. Results of multidimensional scale analysis and cluster analysis, there are six factors that induce activeness 'provide information on clinical practice', 'possibility to participate in clinical practice', 'possibility of adaptation', 'attitude of educator', 'patience of educator', and 'attitude toward trainees'. Among them, the most factor inducing activeness was the 'possibility to participate in practice'. The four items inducing activeness were 'provide a training manual', 'can be observed closely,' 'practice for a sufficient period', and 'the educator's attitude is kind'. The results of this study could be used as basic data to enhance the clinical practice effect of dental hygiene students.

In the current situation where clearly the ship officer is avoiding boarding, the purpose of this study is to investigate the satisfaction of onboard training in shipping companies during the COVID-19 situation and to suggest plans to improve onboard training. Furthermore, by improving satisfaction, students of maritime university can improve their career awareness as a ship officer in the future. The survey was conducted with the cadets of Mokpo Maritime University after completion of onboard training in shipping companies. The questionnaire contains seven factors: education administration, education contents, officer, facility, education ef ect, education satisfaction and career awareness. The survey analysis results indicated that the satisfaction with education administration and education effect was relatively low, and the satisfaction differed by gender and vessel type. In addition, hypothesis verification revealed that the education contents did not have a positive effect on education satisfaction and career awareness. Furthermore, a great correlation existed between education satisfaction and career awareness. We suggested that education and promotion must be improved before onboard training. In addition, the officer must be educated on the method to teach cadets and establish a training plan such that the officer can systematically guide the cadets with an educator mindset.
