The phenomenology of communication represents a starting point in the union of consciousness and experience, analogue and digit, expression and perception, person and lived-world, rhetoric and ethic, constitute human communication. A phenomenological definition of communication requires that analysis proceed through a phenomenological description, reduction, interpretation. This analysis thus far has taken up the general issue of fact versus value, consisting in a subdivision into intention and punctuation on the factual side, and convention and legitimation on the value side. It has treated of the relationships among intention and metaphysics, punctuation and epistemology, convention and logic, and legitimation and axiology.

The aim of this study is to examine the limits and problems of researchers that appear in the papers of applied qualitative research by phenomenological methods. Using phenomenological methods in the field of Pedagogy, pedagogical phenomenology is not to approach pedagogical issues that are closely related to human life through scientism or positivism, but to explain them in things themselves. The problem, however, is that cases misunderstood and distorted in the essential meaning of phenomenology are happening as domestic researchers are applying pure phenomenology(the philosophical phenomenology) to the field of phenomenology of practice(the pedagogical phenomenology). Especially, these researchers show some errors caused by lack of basic understanding about research logic and research techniques in qualitative research methodology. Thus if a researcher carry out a qualitative study by using phenomenological methods, she or he needs insights in analysing and interpreting the essence of the various phenomena appearing from the participants by comparing in with her or his own lives.

This study is a hermeneutic phenomenological study on the experiences of 10 beginning science teachers who have been building positive or negative identity as teachers for the first 3 months. This study was conducted by four steps of the phenomenological qualitative research process suggested by Yeu (2015) based on the study of hermeneutic phenomenology suggested by van Manen (1990). The main data of this study is the transcription data of the telephone interviews collected in consideration of the working area of the research subjects. The main theme is found by categorizing and conceptualizing the meaning of the phenomenon revealed in the data and the process of confirming the legitimacy of the main theme. The results of this study show that the experiences of beginning science teachers that could affect their positive identity as teachers have common moments when they realize that 'I am a necessary person for someone'. On the other hand, the teachers create negative teacher identity when they doubt their teaching competency, particularly when they are not confident about their attitudes toward students or when they are unable to engage students actively in lessons. The results of this study provide important implications for pre-service science teacher preparation program in Korea.

This study aims to explore the lived experiences of middle-aged people with disabilities after a stroke. Using van Manen's phenomenological qualitative method, this study obtained information through interviews with middle-aged people with disabilities after a stroke. The following main themes were extracted from the lived experiences of middle-aged people with disabilities who were interviewed: 'a life broken in half', 'discontinuity and isolation of life', 'being born again', 'fear of stroke relapse', and 'overcoming all difficulties through harmony in a family'. Therefore, the core theme on the lived experiences of middle-aged people with disabilities after a stroke is a shadow of relapse over lives that have to protect families. The implication of this study's results on policy making and actual practices are discussed focusing on the well-being of people with disabilities and their families.

This study looked into the inner experience of foster mothers who adopted children under 3 months old and found out they were disabled while they were rearing with Van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenological approach. In-depth interviews were used with six foster mothers who live in Seoul, Gwangju, Gyeongsangnam-do, and Jeollabuk-do. The study resulted in a hermeneutic writing with titled "Love of Mothers Who Want to Make Their Children's Dreams Come True" with six essential themes as follows: 'being at a loss wrapped in a dense fog,' 'venting off the frustration,' 'gratitude amid painfulness,' 'bold confrontation with prejudices,' 'disabled children's return to the center of their moms' life,' and 'expectation for their future life.' As they are disabled, foster mothers want to rear their children with more care and attention to make their children's dreams come true. Seen above, this could be interpreted as mothers' love to a life. For foster mothers, the disability of their adopted children is not a burden but an expectation for a new world. They help the children live by themselves. It shows that every child can have his own home.

한강하구는 국가하천인 한강, 한강의 1지류인 임진강과 북한 황해도의 예성강이 만나 한강하류 수역을 형성하여 서해 중부해역과 합류하여 매우 복잡한 수리학적 특성을 지닌다. 또한 한강하구의 경우 교량, 수중보 등의 하천 구조물이 설치되어 있다. 수리학은 크게 수위와 관계되는 현상, 하상변화와 관계되는 현상, 외부 환경과 관계되는 현상으로 살펴 볼 수 있다(최계운, 2005). 하천구조물이 설치됨에 따라 구조물 주변에서 국부적으로 수위가 상승되거나 유속이 변화, 세굴현상 등의 하상 변화, 구조물 설치에 따른 생태계의 단절 현상 등 수리학적 현상에 영향을 미치게 된다. 한강하구는 이러한 복잡한 흐름현상에 더해 군사적으로 민감한 지역의 특성으로 현장의 접근성에 한계가 있어 이 지역의 연구조사는 더욱 어렵다. 그간 한강하구의 흐름 현상을 규명하기 위한 연구 방법으로 수치모의를 통한 다양한 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 수리학적 흐름 현상을 계산하기 위한 필수 조건인 하류경계조건 설정에도 어려움이 수반된다. 이 때문에 한강의 수리학적 수치모의 실험에 관한 연구들은 한강하구의 얕은 수심과 해석의 공간적 범위를 소홀히 하고, 공릉천 합류부를 기준으로 하류지점에 대해서는 인천 조위관측소의 조위자료를 사용하거나 하천정비기본계획상의 기점수위를 일괄적으로 적용하여 지점에 따른 수위의 차이를 적용하지 못하는 한계를 지닌다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 남북접경지역 접근의 어려움으로 인하여 발생되는 한강하구 흐름해석의 불확실성을 명확히 하기 위한 방안으로 한강하구지역에 해당 군부대와 군사정전위원회의 출입허가 승인을 얻어 현장조사를 실시하였다. 사전조사를 통하여 성동교, 대산교, 공릉천, 화도돈대, 철곶돈대 전방 수변, 애기봉전망대 전방 수변을 조사 지점으로 선정하였다. 기존 연구에서는 한강하구의 공릉천 합류부 지점을 하류경계조건으로 채택하고 있으나, 현장조사를 통하여 얻을 자료를 분석한 결과 공릉천 합류부 지점의 수위는 강우발생에 대한 하천의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타나 하류경계조건으로 적정하지 않은 것으로 판단되었으며, 공릉천보다 하류지역에 위치한 지역에 대하여 하류경계조건으로 적정한 지역을 찾을 수 있었다. 수치해석 시에는 공간적 범위와 연구의 목적을 고려하여 각 지점의 실제 관측 자료를 활용한 경계조건을 사용하는 것이 적합한 것으로 판단되며 보다 많은 현장조사와 특성분석을 통한 정확한 경계조건의 구축이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

This study is to propose the possibility of narrative or story as a research methodology in the field of library and information science. To do this, I discuss the power and possibility of storytelling as a epistemological method of social science. Later, I look into turn to narrative in western scholarly traditions. And then, I introduced the process and the characteristic of the narrative inquiry as a subject and a methodology of research. I compare to another research methodology, ethnography and phenomenological research. At last, I reviewed the literature which is conducted by the methodology of narrative inquiry in the field of library and information science. I consider the possibility of adaptation of narrative inquiry in the field.
