The purpose of this study is to find out the degree of powerlessness factors among elderly and by examining the variables(perceived health status, ability of daily living activity, self-esteem, depression, family support, loneliness) which affect such factors. By searching for methods to improve the quality of life for the elderly, efficient nursing procedures can be developed, thereby leading to successful aging. For the study, we purposively collected 300 elderly above the age of 65, residing in the areas of Seoul, Inchon, and Daejeon. 266 samples, survived the data screening, were analyzed by reliability analysis, Spearman correlation, and a multiple regression. As the results, first, the correlated factors of the elderly's powerlessness included depression(r=.597, p<.01), loneliness (r=.423, p<.01), ability of daily living activity(r=.374, p<.01), perceived health status(r=-.304, p<.01), family support(r=-.384, p<.01), and self-esteem(r=-.420, p<.01). Second, factors influencing of powerlessness of them were to show in order of depression(β=.373), loneliness(β=.265), spouse(β=.099), family support(β=.090), monthly allowances(β=.013), these variables accounted for 45.7% of the variance of the elderly's powerlessness. Depression showed to be the most important of the powerlessness factors for the elderly. These findings suggest that nursing researchers need to consider important factors affecting the elderly's powerlessness and nursing interventions focusing on the issues need to be developed.

The purpose of this study is to understand how a teacher's teaching can be changed while he or she teaches the same contents in different classes. The qualitative research method was used in this study. Data were collected from classroom observations, several in-depth interviews, and stimulated-recall interviews after each class. All the data were transcribed and analyzed interpretively, and then, the results of the analysis were checked by each participating teacher. The results are as follows: First, changes appeared in each class in terms of the teaching items, tools, sequence, and time, even though the same teacher taught the same contents. It showed that the teacher's teaching practice changed immediately and intuitively in class. Second, teachers tried to implement "exploratory teaching" or "move-testing teaching" to address the emerging problems during their teaching. They then reflected on and modified their own teaching. This type of change, which happened during the teaching practice, can be an example of "Reflection-in-practice." Thus, the results of this study can provide helpful insights into how teachers might adapt and reflect in their teaching. It suggests that teachers need to recognize their subconscious teaching changes and learn "Reflection-in-practice."

This study aimed to identify sustainable dietary practices, concepts, and factors that hinder practice from the perspective of high school students and suggest what the current sustainable dietary education should be supplemented. The study utilized photovoice to compare and analyze the differences in sustainable dietary practices based on the implementation of sustainable dietary education among high school students. A group of 7 participants, who did not provide sustainable dietary education, submitted 65 photos, while a group of 8 participants who underwent the education submitted 80 photos. The results of this study showed that the overall awareness of sustainable diet concepts among all participants was highest in the health area (66.54%), followed by the environment (23.74%) and consideration (9.73%). Categorizing the results according to the sustainable dietary area revealed a diverse range of concepts extracted through sustainable dietary education, with an increase in the number of small areas. It was observed that the majority of the research participants were consuming foods with high sugar and sodium content, and they tended to consume more delivery food or dining out rather than cooking meals themselves. Interview results also indicated that while students demonstrated a conceptual understanding of sustainable dietary habits, there were cases where this understanding needed to translate into practical actions. This study is significant in utilizing the qualitative research method of photovoice to uncover the meaning and practical examples of sustainable dietary habits from the perspective of high school students. The results can be utilized to enhance and guide sustainable dietary education programs.

Teachers' conceptions about teaching are important driving and also interfering forces which might affect their actual practice and training. This research explores preservice mathematics teachers' conceptions of teacher discourse, through tasks analyzing and evaluating teachers' moment-to-moment discourse moves which occur in authoritative and dialogical classroom discourse. Some facets of the preservice teachers' conceptions were congruent with dialogical discourse: they criticized teacher's one-way communication and ignoring students' voices; they supported teacher's questions probing students' thinking and receptive attitude to ward students' wrong answers. However, some deep and subtle facets of their conceptions were more congruent with authoritative discourse rather than dialogical discourse: they positively perceived teacher's closed, information seeking questions that funnel students' thinking to the predetermined procedure; they emotionally resisted teacher's questions which might facilitate dialogical engagement by allowing students to judge mathematical correctness of ideas from their peers. Preservice teachers' conceptions of teacher discourse explored in this research provide useful foundations on which to build continuous and coherent teacher professional development programs about classroom discourse.

To grasp the migration characteristics in the Busan Metropolitan Area (BMA), this study analyzed household characteristics and migration selectivity. The major findings of the study are as follows: first, young (especially 25 to 34 years of age) and single person households have greater propensity to migrate out from BMA, and their home ownership rate is low. These trends are much stronger in households that migrate out towards the Seoul Metropolitan Area from Busan. Second, age and educational selectivity of migration is evident. The characteristics of movers are quite different from those of stayers at Busan. Young people are more likely to migrate out of Busan, and higher levels of education are deeply associated with higher mobility. Through analyzing four high schools in Busan, it is acknowledged that most honor students entered 4-year universities in Seoul. The outflow of highly educated young people may induce the brain drain. Busan is undergoing both population decline and the problems caused by the brain drain.

Recently, digital contents have become increasingly perceived as a core aspect of national development, and as such their generation and widespread promotion is being now pursued on a global basis, as federal governments move to assist corporations in the realization ofconsistent industrial development. Efforts are also being made to seek avenues for the paid use of qualitatively excellent contents, instead of relying upon traditional methods of free-of-charge provision. International corporations as well as governments are committing themselves to the search for a more developed approach to paid contents. In this report, the role of public institutions in executing plans and promotional strategies for the charging and development of the contents industry is examined. In particular, the case of paid contents is analyzed in relation to the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI), which is assigned the task of contents distribution to the general public in its capacity as a public information service institution, not as a profit-oriented general corporation.
