In these days, science is too complex and comprehensive scientific practices to be reduced to scientific knowledge. Also it's actors go beyond the limit of scientist society to the broad range of supporting system scientific journalism, education, and business. Science is very important cultural practice of our times. This Study focus on the effect of interdisciplinary approach in understanding modern science culture. First, this paper suggest the approach of public understanding of science(PUS) as a framework PUS has provided new perspectives for the relation of scientific knowledge and understanding. Traditional approach(so-called 'deficit model') regarded understanding as mere transportation of scientific knowledge. So it may be called 'knowledge-oriented approach' to understanding. But PUS consider understanding process of 'dynamic reconstructing' which is occurred in complex socio-cultural context. Second, this article analysis the Korea University STS course(2002-2003) 'Science Technology & Society' as the case study. The case study examine how interdisciplinary approach help students to understand 'sciene in the making'.

1. 기초간호교육제도- 기초간호교육은 4년제 대학과정과 3년제 전문 대학과정의 두 제도가 있다. 수업년한, 졸업기준 학점이 다르다. ''학술의 심오한 이론, 그 정치하고 광범한 응용방법을 교수 연구하고 지도적 인격을 도야함''은 대학의 교육목적이며, 전문대학은 ''전문적 지식과 이론을 교수''연구하며 재능을 연마하여 중견 직업인을 양성함''으로 명시되었다. 전자는 학문과 지도력에 중점을 두었고 후자는 전문적 지식과 이론에 바탕을 둔 재능의 연마와 중견직업인에 역점을 두고 있다. 교육과정의 편성비율에 있어서도 대학과정과 전문대학 과정에 현저한 차가 있다. 전문대학은 총 이수학점 중 20$\%$를, 대학과정은 30$\%$를 교양과목으로 과하고 있고, 전문대학은 전공선택과 필수를 총 학점의 80$\%$로 하는데 비해 대학과정은 총 이수학점의 50$\%$ 내외로 하고 자유선택, 부전공 등에 나머지를 할애하고 있다(표 7, 표 8) 2. 계속교육제도- 계속교육제도는 정규교육제도에 포함되고 있는 대학원 과정과 보사부장관이 인정하는 특정 기관에서 개설하는 특수분야별 수습과정들로 나눌 수 있다. 대학원 과정은 간호학 전공 외에도 보건학 교육학동 인접학문 영역을 연구하여 학위를 받고 있고 서울대학교와 연세대학교에서 박사학위 과정을 개설하고 있다. 전공분야별 간호원의 자격인정은 보건간호, 마취간호, 정신간호 분야에 가능하나 극소수의 간호원 자격을 취득하고 있다.

Social awareness of mathematics and academic attitudes toward the value of mathematics education has kept changing according to the intellectual, political and religious contexts. In this article, we examine how mathematics was defined and recognized in liberal arts education of the Roman Empire and early medieval Western Europe. This study analyzes how mathematics was described in encyclopedic works written in the Roman era after the mid-second century BC and in the Western European monasteries and cathedral schools after the fifth century. Ancient Greek mathematics took a clear place in liberal arts education through encyclopedia writings and prepared a mathematics curriculum for medieval universities. I hope this study will contribute to understanding the origin and context of the mathematics curriculum of medieval universities.

Minimalism is an increasingly popular lifestyle in which people deliberately seek to live with fewer possessions. However, little scientific research has been done to examine the relationships between minimalism, social value, and happiness. Two recent studies have investigated whether critical components of minimalism, such as subtraction and decluttering could lead to changes in social values and happiness. In Study 1, the participants were presented with pictures of unstable Lego structures for which they were asked to create ideas to resolve problems, either through adding new supports or removing the existing ones. Participants with a stronger tendency to use subtractive transformations reported higher happiness scores. In addition, higher scores in intrinsic value preferences were correlated with higher levels of happiness. In Study 2, cuing minimalism or consumerism using pictures led to changes in materialistic values, motivation for social engagement, and reported happiness scores. These results imply that minimalism as an alternative lifestyle can contribute to social wellbeing and increased happiness. Limitations and implications for future studies are discussed.
