Objective : This study was conducted to validate the content validity of the Korean version of the school setting interview (SSI) that assesses the adequacy of school environments for students aged 9-19. Methods : The Korean version of the SSI, which was completed via a translation-reverse translation process, was verified by conducting a questionnaire on category suitability two times with 35 experts. Results : The content validity index (CVI) for the entire K-SSI tool was .90 in the first test. The "Maps and diagrams" measurement in reading items and the "Taking a shower" measurement in sports activities were both below .75. A second round of verification was conducted after the CVI was modified. As a result, the secondary verification CVI results were further raised to .93. Conclusion : This study confirmed that the K-SSI contains items that are appropriate to Korean culture; it has been proven to have high content validity. Future continuous research and clinical use are required to study the validity and reliability of the K-SSI. Further, this tool should also be applied to students with diverse disabilities who face difficulties in school settings.

This study aims to identify users' perceptions and needs to improve college teaching spaces in nursing education, and thus derive improvement measures. Therefore, group interviews (three to five participants per category) were conducted with professors (7), students (9), and administrative staff (8) at a college of nursing located in Seoul. All interviews were conducted face-to-face, with each interview taking approximately 60-90 min. The interview results were analyzed for professors, students, and administrative staff separately. The following implications were drawn by synthesizing the interview results for each group: (1) the physical environment and quality of interaction between professors and students need to be improved in order to enhance the quality of teaching and learning; (2) a well-designed practice environment that allows students to practice various skills with confidence needs to be provided; (3) classrooms need to be configured and arranged in a way that is appropriate the nursing curriculum and educational activities to maximize learning effectiveness; (4) spatial restructuring is necessary in terms of living and resting spaces to help nursing students manage stress and provide them with psychological stability; and (5) administrative support reflecting the nursing curriculum is needed in establishing classroom assignment criteria and space use regulations. Finally, the limitations of this study and suggestions for further research were discussed.

This study describes and compares the systems of school internal and external evaluation in South Korea and Sweden. Since education environment over the world has been changing commonly toward 'improving quality of schools' in 'decentralization of education', the more stress goes to 'education evaluation'. In this respect, school evaluation becomes a vital means to monitor schools and improve their weaknesses, as well as to enhance their strengths by informing the public of the results of evaluation. The research explores the systems of South Korean and Swedish school evaluation carried out by internal and external inspectors in order to compare the differences of two countries through qualitative methods by analyzing documents and articles related to school evaluation of two countries. Even though both South Korean and Swedish education have a 'school evaluation system as a unit', the approaches to it vary in accordance with the contexts of each country. In this regard, 'convergence' of having the same education policy of 'school evaluation' and 'divergence' of different approaches toward evaluation systems in each country have been examined in this study.

박준영 건축사는 매우 독특한 분으로 인터뷰 후에 기억되었다. 매우 훌륭한 품질의 건축을 위해 자신의 경제적 상황도 마다 않고, 일관되게 업무를 처리하는 모습은 대단함을 넘어 존경스런 생각도 들게 되었다. 하지만 그의 표현처럼, '산수를 못해' 조직의 운영과 사업의 어려움을 감내하고 있는 것을 보면 안타까움도 함께 들었다. 하지만 이런 것이 어디 그 만의 문제는 일까? 학교에서도 산수를 좀 알려주고, 국내 건축 환경이 계속 좋은 품질의 건축을 유지하는 데 기본적 여건이 되어주는 날이 빨리 왔으면 좋겠다.

In this study, 15 teacher librarians working in the high school library were interviewed in order to understand the factors and situation of teacher librarian's job burnout. The results showed that job environment, teacher librarian's role and identity, school community members' lack of awareness of school library and teacher librarians were found to be influential factors in job burnout. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to develop proper compensation system, to divide librarians and teacher librarians into clear jobs, to provide opportunities for the other teachers to extend their understanding of teacher librarians, and to provide opportunities for self development and recharging.
