In this study, based on the results of analyzing the facilities and operation of the public libraries in Iksan, several strategies that may contribute to its regional development have been established. The strategies are as follows. The first one is to hire more librarians to perform the role of libraries at the advanced level that are suitable for the ever-growing library facilities. The second is the plan for specialization of the libraries, which was proposed with each subject suitable for each library such as History Culture, Modern and Local Culture, Jewelry and Precious metal, Food Cluster, Female, Administration & Welfare, and Environment & Ecology by matching the urban policies and characteristics of Iksan with these library. The others are the operation of English library in the way suggested in this study and the establishment of youth library to build up the role of the libraries in educational city. Through these strategies, the overall function and role of the public libraries in Iksan can be strengthened and emphasized.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the cliche for English-Korean interpretation and translation with special reference to the cliche based on the Holy Bible texts. Cliches are figurative or literal expressions and are overused expressions in various different cultures. In addition, cliches are languages, a tool of communication in an appealing way. Therefore, cliches are must be clearly distinguished from the term of idioms that are figurative phrases with an implied meaning; the phrase is not to be taken literally. Also, cliches are the single most important factor that characterizes socioculturally. Through this empirical analysis on cliches we see that this study has conceptualized the meaning of cliche. Based on this result, I expect that anyone who researches English-Korean interpretation and translation field should be concerned about cliches. I hope this study will be a guide to the right uses of cliches in English language fields.

This study reports the results of an exploratory investigation into building number technique applied by a sample of novice students using Electronic Dewey(ED). For control purposes, a second sample used the same classification schedule but in print format. In this experiment, the DDC 20 in print had a higher success rate than ED. While the searches in ED took shorter time than DDC in print, students using DDC 20 in print were able to build more correct numbers than ED. Novice users did not take full advantage of system features of ED. Therefore, it is important to note the overall difficulty with which users could build numbers from the ED after little training. However, it is interesting to note that the students in the CD-ROM group were more interested in building numbers than their colleagues in the Print group. The correlation between the grade of English course and the score in experiment was negative in Print group. And the correlation between GPA and the score in experiment was a little positive. The correlation between the time and the score in experiment was quitenegative.

This study is to find the effectiveness of the invitational training in healthcare field of developing countries through grasping the change of the national image of Korea. To this end, we collected data on the satisfaction on the invitational training from 192 participants of short-term and long-term training programs conducted by the Korea Foundation for International Healthcare(KOFIH). T-test, ANOVA analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were conducted. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, the national image was enhanced after the invitational training. Second, satisfaction on contents of the training programs had a significant positive (+) effect on the national image. Third, English proficiency and nationality influenced national image significantly. According to this study, it was confirmed that the invitational training in healthcare was influential for enhancing the national image. To enhance the effectiveness of the invitational training, it is necessary to study the contents of the training program and the process of selecting the participants.

Although social work practice skills are one of the important components of social work practice, research on social work practice skills has been very scarce. It seems that the reason might be a lack of standardized instruments used to measure social work practice skills. The purpose of this study is to validate a Korean version of the Practice Skills Inventory(PSI) developed by O'Hare and colleagues. The PSI is the only instrument developed in the field of social work to measure the frequency of social work practice skills that social workers use. A total of 310 social workers working in medical or mental health field were participated in this study. A result of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the Korean version of the PSI is composed of 4 factors like its english version. The Korean version of the PSI was also reliable and valid. Implications for social work research, practice and education are provided.

With a gradual increase in research on teaching and learning calculus, there have been various studies about students' thinking about the derivative. This paper reviews the results of the existing empirical studies published in Korean and English. These studies mainly have shown that how students think about the derivative is related to their understanding of the related concepts and the representations of the derivative. There are also recent studies that emphasize the importance of how students learn the derivative including different applications of the derivative in different disciplines. However, the current literature rarely addressed how students think about the derivative in terms of the language differences, e.g., in Korean and English. The different terms for the derivative at a point and the derivative of a function, which shows the relation between concepts, may be closely related to students' thinking of the derivative as a function. Future study on this topic may expand our understanding on the role language-specific terms play in students' learning of mathematical concepts.

Currently, many computer systems are used in many areas of medicine including radiation oncology. For the most part, the computer system has proved to be useful in radiotherapeutic planning and dose calculation. There has been attempts to develop computer system including information management of patients, patient tracing, and office automation in radiation oncology department. But some of these available commercial systems have shortcomings. We developed a management system of patients in our radiation oncology department that integrated most of items for the evaluation of patents. In particular, the data were stored in a natural language (noncoded) and made themselves easily understandable by all clinical groups. In addition , the data could be isolated in files from which the computer could generate graphs and static data by the use of some simple commands. The system provided us with not only the functions of case review but functions of preparation of conferences, lectures and resident teaching.

The purpose of this research is to suggest a model or method of needs analysis for designing syllabuses. As the learner-centered approach in teaching and learning methods becomes general, the learners' needs or wants should be reflected on the syllabus design. However, standardized scores in the previous research have disadvantages to be distorted in data interpretations because the difference between the maximum value and minimum value is so big compared to the Likert 5 scales. To solve this disadvantage, the Max-Min method is used in the needs analysis for the syllabus design. So, the differences are presented. Needs analyses need to be selected variously according to situations. Thus, further researches are needed to develop several new methods as well as the Max-Min method or the standardized score method for the whole needs analyses.
