This study investigated the factors affecting the satisfaction and the continuous behavior intention of university students on MOOC. Adopting a questionnaire, the study collected data from 177 students enrolled in K-MOOC classes as an extracurriculum in the university in metropolitan area. Results indicated the following. First, the university students' satisfaction and continuous use intention on K-MOOC are higher during the semester than in vacation. Second, the perceived ease of use, usefulness, and task-technology fit influence the users'satisfaction on K-MOOC. Meanwhile, the perceived ease of use, task-technology, and user satisfaction likewise influence the users'continuous behavior intention. Hence, the study proposes that the subject matter on K-MOOC and the amount of educational content be made diversified, and the period of K-MOOC be made similar with that of the regular semester. The platform should also be stabilized, and the adequacy in mobile environment be improved. To further activate K-MOOC utilization in the university, the depth of contents and interaction between professors and students also need to be considered.

Recently, new teaching methods for communicating with teachers and students have been emerged according to the trends of decreasing the school-age population and the development of the mass media. We have applied teaching-learning model based on the flip learning to the college students in this work. As a result of the test for the customized flipped learning teaching-learning model in pre-class, the attendance rate of the major subject was 92.3% whereas that in liberal arts courses other than majors revealed 87.6%. This result for attendance rate shows that first year students in the radiology department have been actively participated in pre-class of the major subject than that of the liberal arts curriculum. From comparing the differences between the study group that was applied flipped learning in class and the non-applied group, the research group showed higher scores in knowledge, skills, and attitudes than the comparative group. In addition, more than 90% of the learners improved their responsibility, problem solving ability, creative thinking, cooperative ability, and communication ability through this learning program. From the test for the difference in the role of radiologists in the post class, the mean score was 4.40 for the group applied the teaching-learning model while that for non-applied group was 2.10. Hence, from such results, we see that this teaching-learning model is appropriate and needs to be extended to cultivate basic skills in radiology and relevant vocational education.

The needs for ecological engineering, which can design ecosystems that integrate human society and their natural environment for the benefit of both, has increased. The Korean Society of Ecology and Infrastructure Engineering (KSEIE) was established for this purpose and has contributed to the research and development of theories and technologies in related fields. However, the current state of educational services and contents of ecological engineering is still needed to be standardized and systematized. In this paper, we outlined the trends of ecological engineering education at international and domestic levels and proposed a sample services and curriculum, brought from the discussions and suggestions made during the forum, Founding the Education for Ecological Engineering, held by the KSEIE. Education of ecological engineering can nurture people who can design and manage ecosystems for the benefits of human and natural society and can restore ecosystems disturbed artificially. The services and curriculum have to meet and cover the challenges facing the future of ecological engineering; a. the ethical interpretation of the balance between human and nature, b. developing and strengthening its relationship with other scientific disciplines and societies - business, policy, education, and practitioners, c. identify and fuse the key ecological engineering principles into other discipline. We proposed a three layers curriculum system, basic (mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, etc.), core (ecology, hydrology, engineering, etc.), and advanced subjects. The first two can belong to an undergraduate program and the last two can be put into graduate program. The selection of subjects is according to the purpose and needs of the major.

The present study is a convergence study aimed at investigating the effects of the blended learning method on self-directed learning and learning satisfaction of nursing students. A nonequivalent control group was designed to conduct a pre-post test for this study. The participants were assigned to the experimental(n=70) or control group(n=68). Data was analyzed using ${\chi}^2$-test, independent t-tset, and ANCOVA. The results of this study showed that self-directed learning(F=4.122, p=.044), learning satisfaction (F=4.714, p=.032) were significantly higher in the experimental group with blended learning applied than in the control group that received lecture courses for the subject adult health nursing. In other words, this study found that the blended learning method, which was designed to enable students to learn given tasks on their own outside teaching-centered lectures, can enhance the learning ability of nursing students. The results of this study indicate the need to conduct repeated studies regarding blended learning in various subjects and to develop content considering self-directed learning and learning satisfaction of learners.

This study is a research study to identify the recognition, experiences, needs of convergence education in occupational therapy students. Therefore, it is intended to provide basic data when developing convergence subjects and non-regular programs within the occupational therapy (department) curriculum. From December 03, 2020, a web questionnaire consisting of 14 questions in 4 areas was distributed over a month, and the data of 130 people were finally analyzed. The results are as follows. First, the recognition and experiences of occupational therapy students in convergence education were low. Second, 57.7% of students recognized that occupational therapy majors need convergence education, and the expected effect of convergence education was 'improvement of occupational therapy job-related knowledge'. Third, it was recognized that 'natural science', 'prosthesis and assistive technology, activity of daily living(ADL)', and 'ADL training' convergence education was necessary for the students of occupational therapy department. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data in the future development of occupational therapy curriculum and non-regular programs for convergence education. In the future, I think that the demand for convergence education and program development in preparation for the 4th industrial revolution will increase in the occupational therapy curriculum. It is expected that the data of this study will be used meaningfully by professors in charge of occupational therapy education at universities.

The era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution is increasingly demanding mathematical competencies for virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI) and the like. In this context, this study intended to identify the basic mathematical competency levels of university freshman students in radiology department and to provide basic data thereon. For this, the diagnostic assessment of basic learning competencies for the domain of mathematics was conducted from June 17, 2019 to June 28, 2019 among 78 freshman students of radiology department at S university and D university. As a result, the university students' overall basic mathematical competency levels were diagnosed to be excellent. However, their levels in the sectors of the geometry and vector and the probability and statistics were diagnosed to be moderate, with the mean scores of 2.61 points and 2.64 points, respectively, which were found to be lower than those of the other sections. As for basic mathematical competency levels according to genders, the levels of male students and female students were diagnosed to be excellent, with the mean scores of 17.48 points and 16.29 points, respectively, showing no statistically significant difference (p>0.05). Given the small number of subjects and regional restriction, there might be some limitations in the generalization of the findings of the present study to all university freshman students and all departments. The above results suggest that it is necessary to implement various programs such as student level-based special lectures for enhancing basic mathematical competencies relating to major in order to improve the basic mathematical competencies of freshman students in radiology department, and that it is necessary to increase the students' mathematical competencies by offering major math courses in the curriculum and applying teaching-learning methods matching students' levels.
