우리나라에서 본격적인 수문조사와 하천조사가 실시되기 시작한 것은 1910년대 일제 강점기라고 할 수 있다. 이 시기에는 근대적인 기술에 의해 전국적인 수문관측망이 구축되었고, 외국에서 개발된 각종 계측장비가 설치되었다. 또한 유속계가 도입되어 하천에서 유량측정이 시작된 것도 이 시기이다. 본격적인 하천개수공사도 이 시기에 시작된다. 오랫동안 자연상태로 유지되어 온 하천에 직강화 공사가 대대적으로 실시되고, 홍수피해 방지를 위한 대규모 제방 사업이 시작된 것이다. 이에 따라 일제 강점기에 하천에 관련된 많은 변화가 발생하였고, 지금까지도 그 영향이 지속 되고 있다. 일제 강점기에 이루어진 우리나라 수문조사 및 하천공사의 역사에 대해서는 거의 알려진 바가 없다. 불과 몇 권의 문헌만이 알려져 있고, 이마저도 일본어로 작성되어 있음으로 인해 자료의 분석이나 활용이 이루어지지 못했다. 또한 일제 강점기라는 특수성으로 인해서 이 시기에 이루어진 하천관련 사업은 관심의 대상이 되지 못하였다. 그러나 비록 일제 강점기에 일본인들의 주도로 이루어진 하천사업이지만 우리나라 땅에서 이루어진 우리의 역사라는 점에서 이 시기에 이루어진 하천 관련 사업에 대한 자료의 발굴, 분석 등은 매우 중요하다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 일제 강점기에 발간된 수문조사, 홍수피해 조사, 하천조사, 공사연보, 조사연보, 논문 등을 발굴하여 분석하였다. 이 시기에는 조사에 대한 방대한 사업이 이루어져서 조선하천조사서, 수력조사서 등의 문헌이 발간되었다. 또한 1925년, 1934년 등 이 시기에 발생한 대홍수에 대해서 다양한 형태의 조사보고서가 발간되었고, 매년 하천공사나 수문조사 결과를 담은 연보가 발간되었다. 한강, 낙동강, 대동강에 대한 홍수예보를 위한 논문도 이 시기에 작성된 바 있다. 본 연구에서 발굴한 이와 같은 문헌은 모두 100여건에 이른다. 이 시기에 작성된 문헌들은 수문조사나 하천과 관련해서 중요한 정보를 담고 있다. 1911년부터 시작된 수위 및 유량측정에 대한 상세한 방법과 결과, 연도별 수문조사 결과, 하천 직강화 이전의 하천형태, 연도별 하상변화 내역, 대홍수시의 범람상황, 하천별 개수공사 내역, 하천공사와 관련된 각종 통계 등이 사진, 그림, 도표 등의 형태로 작성되어 있어 있다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 자료를 분석하여 정리하였다. 본 연구에서 분석한 일제 강점기의 수문조사와 하천에 대한 내용은 향후 하천복원, 수문통계 작성, 하천공사 등에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to confirm the effect of digital co-teaching between teachers online on improving students' reading literacy. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, a pre-test was conducted on first-year high school students, and a post-test was conducted after conducting the co-teaching over two sessions. For statistical analysis, the data of 101 students with no missing values in pre- and post-tests were used. Through the OECD's PISA reading literacy evaluation framework and factor analysis, a reading literacy test tool consisting of expression, comprehension, and information literacy was developed and the degree of change in reading literacy was measured through a self-report with the tool. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the digital co-teaching had a statistically significant positive effect on the expression, comprehension and information literacy of high school students. This study is meaningful in that it shows that digital co-teaching can be applied as a way to improve reading literacy in PISA organized by the OECD.

This study will explore the possibility of applying process innovation as a public library for business innovation. In order to do this, the study defines the concept of process innovation through the literature review. According to survey and focus group interviews with librarians working for public libraries, this study will organize work done at libraries into the following categories: acquisition, resource management, user management, user services, programs, volunteer management, marketing, library computerization system, facility management, general affairs and statistical management. In addition, through face-to-face surveys with librarians working for public libraries it is confirmed that there are issues within acquisition, user management, and applied process innovation. In response to these issues a new process has been developed. Using this new approach, book contract procedure and requests for book related work could be improved and optimized. In the user management section, the study analyzes the requirements and subscription procedures for members through a website survey of 30 public libraries in the United States and then provides an improved system through process analysis of the membership process of Korean public libraries. It is expected that the new system will contribute to improvements in user satisfaction as well as improvements in library workflow.
