Domestically multicultural society is being demanded a change in recognition today into the direction of harmony from assimilation. This change in paradigm is having a proposition as understanding about mutually different cultural background. A role of cultural contents is getting important more than ever as a link of understanding and recognition between heterogeneous groups. These cultural contents can be enhanced its effect when being developed on the basis of cooperation by which the multi-cultural members themselves participate in a project, and can conform even with social significance. The purpose of this study is to analyze a project case of a multicultural contents planning team 'Arto Placo', which produced contents through cooperation between a foreigner group including marriage immigrants and a local group such as illustrator and children's book writer. Each project was indicated to be contents such as public performance, exhibition, ad APP book. The aim was to specifically examine Case Selection and Introduction, Contents's Planning Development, Assessment and Activation plan.

Computational thinking has been a powerful key recently to open a new paradigm era in the curriculum of Informatics subject and the community of computer science education. But the quality and quantity of domestic research about it has been very poor in comparison with other countries. Therefore, this study focuses on the definition, learning steps and learning contexts about computational thinking education using some professional questionnaires and analyses of related other countries' literatures. The learning contexts that were extracted by several previous works could be used as the factor to analyze the curriculum of Informatics subject and textbooks in middle school; these could be helpful to teach the ability of computational thinking in middle school. Results of these questionnaires show that the three steps and 13 learning contexts of computational thinking education are properly well-formulated. The 5 of 13 learning contexts, such as data collection, are missing in 2009 revised-Informatics curriculum in middle school as well as the seven Informatics textbooks that used in middle school contained 10 of 13 learning contexts for computational thinking education.

The ubiquitous network revolution is beginning with the onset of digital convergence, whereby computers, horne appliances, and communications and broadcast media are being unified into digital media with the founding of the information super high speed. This technical advancement is creating a new culture and a new space and accelerating society's transition to the new and unique social paradigm of a 'ubiquitous society'. In particular, studies on ubiquitous communications are well underway. Lately, the focus has been on the Bluetooth technology due to its applicability in various environments. Applying Bluetooth connectivity to new environments such as ubiquitous or sensor networks requires finding new ways of using it. Thus, the scalable Bluetooth piconet scheme with independent slave device is proposed. It follows from work by Sea et al. But extended scatternet is not considered is Kiisc05 paper. Therefore, we propose secure bridge connection scheme for scalable Bluetooth scatternet.

Since the U.S. government officially accepted North Korean(NK) as refugees starting in 2006, about 120 North Koreans have come to and been living in the United States. However, little is known in regard to what the North Korean refugees need for a qualify life. This study aims to explore the essential experiences of North Korean defectors who have settled in the United States after escaping North Korea. Research inquiries are why North Korean refugees have chosen the United States for their settlement, and how they are living in the United States. Data were collected from in-depth interviews with eight NK refugees. For data analysis, grounded theory approach by Strauss and Corbin(1998) was employed. The data analysis identified the central phenomenon, protective and risk factors, and core actions and consequences of NK refugees' adjustment in the U.S. The central phenomenon was "voluntary choose to come to the U.S." The core action and consequences in the process of their adjustment were 'searching for the meaning of life,' and 'achieving acculturation.' The findings may provide deeper understanding on the situation of North Korean refugees in the U.S. and implications for how to help them adjust well in the society.

Virtual reality technology is one of the important technologies that will affect our life in many ways. This novel technology will draw new paradigm into the medical field due to its advantages in physical safety and environment that are fully controlled. Phobia treatment using VR technology has been implemented and its feasibility has been proved through a number of researches in many institutions. This study has observed the current progress of its technology environment and the trend of research. Also, This study has analyzed the results from domestic and international data. Analysis shows that other countries are ahead of korea in all aspects of the phobia treatment using virtual reality method. Although the authors limited the kinds of journals, the amount of quantity in international researches are two times more than domestics. Also, The researchers in other countries concentrate on the multi-modal studies. To use virtual reality in the phobia treatment, we need to understand the needs of the society members and the government has responsibility to support what the researchers need.

The problem of the objective adequacy on land estimation has been seriously discussed with the Issue of paradigm conversion on land policy as the economy situation has been worse enough to be confused due to the sale price which could not be predicted in Korea. Especially as the data of the government land value is not recognized as the official one, the separate alternation has been adopted to calculate the value of land compensation or development allotment. Rather it has raised a question in argument that the system of the declared value does not accomplish its basic function properly on the contrary of the original purpose to unify the computation of the government land value. To reconsider the adequacy of government land value, the most crucial factor is to select the items of land estimation reasonably. In addition, it is urgently required to develop the system of digital contents to provide the data of land evaluation which most of people could trust, who are facing of the flood of information through internet.

'Otherness' is a major philosophical concept in modern Western thought. It has been a force through which the concept of a subject's rights emerged. This paper focuses on Emmanuel Levinas' discussion of 'otherness.' Levinas emphasizes our ethical responsibility for others, which is meaningful in that it can be applied as a paradigm of communication for use in modern society. In the context of modern times and multicultural societies, it is important to recognize the diversity of others and to promote coexistence. Coexistence at this time should be 'unifying' rather than subject-centered. This paper attempts to understand this narrative. An epic is a cognitive process that constitutes the fundamental desires and experiences of humans. Humans try to project and understand themselves through narratives. The possibility of coexistence with others can be examined by analyzing otherness as found within those narratives. Therefore, this paper suggests the possibility and direction of coexistence by analyzing the storytelling that establishes relationships by shaping characters in Guillermo del Toro's film, Shape of Water.

As recent inflows of foreign immigrants to relatively advanced countries in Northeast Asia have rapidly increased, Japan in particular uses 'multicultural coexistance' as a key concept for developing both discourse and policies on them. This paper is first of all to suggest a new typology of multicultural societies in the world ill order to differentiate the case of Northeast Asian countries from those of Western countries. And this paper is to suggest that foreign immigrants in Japan have different positions in labor markets and living experiences according to historical and social backgrounds as well as their nationality. The transformation process towards multicultural society is not only historical and social but also geographical and spatial, as foreign immigrants have made different spatial distribution and regional segregation in types. In order to control this socio-spatial process towards multicultural society, Japan has developed the concept of 'multicultural coexistence' similar with that of multiculturalism in Western countries. This concept seems to be quite significant as it has been initiated by local communities for symbiotic relationship between foreign immigrants and native Japanese dwellers. But it can be regarded as a strategic ideology to control foreign immigrants as it targets mainly on Nikkeijin, and is usually concerned with the cultural aspect. Seen from a theoretical point of view, this concept can be seen as closed with liberal multiculturalism as opportunity equity, but far from corporative multiculturalism as outcome equity, and it is on the process transferring from the first stage of tolerance to the second stage of legislation of nondiscrimination, while being distant from the third stage of legislation paradigmization of recognition, and hence appears to be easily reverted to assimilationism.

The paradigm of a product taking a sudden turn of technical development is due to a change of the needs of diversified user, and this shows that users emphasizes on the value of the sensitivity than the standardized form and usableness of the product, and the value of such a sensitivity can relate to the needs of the product, and it can be filled up eventually by the rapid completion of the product. The creativity will be the most important ability in the future society, it is an added value to all the profession workers which people can use that to increase their competitiveness ability. It is recognized the value of the sensitivity represents the feels psychological aspect of the user and it would be the future design trend, by doing this, products designed would be different from the existing products in the market. I am going to show you that this can be used in the design concept derivation process, there is several core design elements in the product development process, these elements can not only represent the basic user needs but also the user inner unconscious needs, at the same time it keeps the aesthetic concern.
