In recent years, university education has emphasized a learner-centered education model with a change in educational paradigm. This study aims to explore students' diverse opinions and improve the quality of education by analyzing the open-ended responses of university lecture evaluations using topic modeling. To this end, a total of 45,001 open-ended responses based on the results of lecture evaluations from 2017 to 2022 in non-metropolitan universities were divided into majors and liberal arts, and a short-form optimized Biterm Topic Modeling (BTM) analysis was conducted. As a result of the analysis, major lectures were divided into "attitude toward non-face-to-face classroom experience", "attitude toward questions and discussions", "attitude toward attendance and grading", "attitude toward practical activities and presentations", and "attitude toward communication and collaboration", while liberal arts lectures were divided into "attitude toward non-face-to-face classroom experience", "attitude toward grades and evaluations", "attitude toward attendance and syllabus", "attitude toward academic knowledge and interest", and "attitude toward communication and questions". The results of this study, which analyzed various feedback from students, provide insights that can be used to compare the characteristics of majors and liberal arts courses and improve teaching and learning experiences.

This study aimed to investigate the medically inclined college students' knowledge, attitude, and compliance on the preventive behaviors of the Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). A cross-sectional study was conducted on 251 medically inclined college students in Jeonju Kijeon College from June 8 to 13, 2015, using a scale on the knowledge and attitude toward MERS and a structured questionnaire. The t-test, analysis of variance, and Pearson correlation coefficient were used to analyze the data. The participants consisted of 46.6% college students majoring in dental hygiene, 30.7% in clinical pathology, and 22.7% in emergency rescue, and 69.7% of them had been educated on MERS prevention. This study revealed that students who received MERS prevention training (t=3.457, p=0.001) and female students (t=-2.945, p=0.005) had more knowledge on MERS, while students from the dental hygiene department (F=8.048, p<0.001) and those in their third year (F=3.978, p=0.020) showed a more positive attitude toward MERS. Regarding the correlation between knowledge, attitude, fear of infection and compliance on the preventive behaviors, students were more knowledgeable (r=0.133, p=0.036), presented a more positive attitude (r=0.158, p=0.012) and had more fear of infection (r=0.312, p<0.001), were more likely to comply with the preventive measures. For an effective prevention of MERS, a newly found infectious disease, we suggest that medically inclined college students must improve their knowledge of and have a positive attitude toward MERS infection management at a medical institution in compliance with the MERS infection preventive behaviors. Furthermore, this study shows that an infection management education program should be developed, so that which students could learn about the causes, dissemination routes, and preventive methods of infectious diseases, including the newly discovered ones, prior to their clinical training at a medical institution.

모유가 인공유보다 아기에게 신체적, 정신적으로 바람직하다는 것은 강조할 필요가 없다. 모유수유율을 증가시키기 위하여는 간호사들이 아기어머니에게 모유수유와 관련된 지식을 전달하여, 모유수유를 실천할 수 있게 적극적으로 도와주어야 한다. 이 연구는 신생아나 산모와 함께 일하는 한국의 간호사 60명, 태국의 간호사 50명을 대상으로 모유수유에 관한 지식과 이 지식을 얼마나 어머니에게 전달하는지를 비교 조사한 것이다. 연구결과 한국 간호사보다 태국 간호사가 모유수유에 관한 정보를 어머니에게 더 제공하고 있었고, 더 적극적으로 모유수유를 할 수 있게 도와주고 있었다. 또한 태국병원의 체계도 모자동실을 실시하는 등 어머니가 아기를 낳은 직후부터 모자수유를 할 수 있게 되어있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 모유수유에 관한 지식정도를 비교한 결과 한국의 간호사가 태국의 간호사보다 더 정확한 지식을 갖고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 한국의 모성간호사들이 좀 더 적극적으로 어머니가 모유를 할 수 있도록 도와야 하며, 한국병원의 체계도 모유를 수유하기 쉽고 편안한 환경을 제공하여야 함을 나타내고 있었다. 또한 태국의 간호사와 한국의 모성간호사는 모유수유에 관한 최근의 지식을 정확하게 알아야 할 필요성을 제시하고 있었다.
