Clinical skills assessment was recently introduced to the Korean Medical License Examination to test medical school graduates' competencies in clinical skills. Various measures, including research and rehearsals, had been undertaken to prepare for the assessment for several years before the clinical skills assessment was first implemented. The assessment has been repeated annually for about 3,500 examinees over the course of 50 days per year for the past 4 years. The introduction of the assessment had significant effects on education in Korea's medical schools. Many schools have established clinical skills labs and the teaching of clinical skills has also been strengthened. The residents who have taken the clinical skills exam now express more confidence in caring for patients. To improve the quality of the assessment, it should be performed on a year-round schedule and a pilot test and various forms of the items should be introduced.

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to identify a gap between consumer characteristics and utilization of health information on the Internet. Methods: A telephone survey of nationally representative samples was conducted using structured questionnaires, and 1,000 of the 1,189 responses obtained were included in our analysis. The following variables were included in the analysis as potential predictors of health information use on the Internet: predisposing factors such as gender, age, and education status; enabling factors such as region and monthly household income; consumer need for health information; and attitude to health. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between utilization rate and the potential predictors. Results: Thirty-nine percent of consumers had obtained health information on the Internet over a one-year period. The utilization rates were higher for consumers who were young, educated, worked in the office setting, had higher incomes, wanted health information, and were able to use the Internet. The utilization rate was 5.35 times higher in the younger group (20-30 years) than in the elderly group (95% CI=2.21-12.97); 2.21 times higher for office workers than for manual workers (95% CI=1.16-4.20); 3.61 times higher for college graduates than for middle school graduates and below (95% CI=1.07-11.59); 1.99 times higher for people with monthly household incomes over 3,000,000 won than for those with monthly household incomes below 1,500,000 won (95% CI=1.01-3.92). Conclusions: There needs to be a paradigm shift, with consideration of not only Internet accessibility in the digital age, but also consumer ability and attitudes toward utilization of health information.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the satisfaction of newly graduated nurses with educational programs and their experiences in role transition. Methods: Data were collected from November 1 to December 15, 2018 and 483 new graduate nurses working at 15 tertiary hospitals and 10 general hospitals participated. For data collection, self-report questionnaires including the Casey-Fink Graduate Nurse Experience Survey tool and satisfaction with education were used. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and one-way analysis of variance. Results: Satisfaction with education ranged from 3.09 to 3.27, and satisfaction with preceptors was 3.45(maximum 4). The skill that new nurses ranked as most difficult during the first 3 months was charting/documentation, and throughout a whole year, the top 4 difficult skills were cardiopulmonary resuscitation/emergency response, ventilator care, end-of-life care, and prioritization/time management. In comfort/confidence, new graduates felt most comfortable with support and least comfortable with patient safety. More than 50 percent of new graduates experienced stress during role transition, and the most frequently experienced stressors were related to job performance and personal life. Levels of satisfaction with education and comfort/confidence differed according to the hospital type and number of preceptors for new nurses. Conclusion: In order to facilitate the transition of new graduate nurses to professional nurse, an extended period of education, systematic and standardized transition programs, and continuous support during the first year of practice are required.

학령인구의 급격한 감소는 대학마다 정원을 확보하는 것과 함께 입학한 학생들의 중도탈락을 막아야 하는 과제를 동시에 요구하고 있다. 현실적으로 모든 대학에서는 중도탈락자가 발생하고 있으며, 특히 4년제 대학에 비해 전문대학이 더 높은 중도탈락률을 보이고 있다. 중도탈락과 관련된 기존 연구들은 그 원인을 분석하는 내용들이 많았던 반면, 중도탈락을 줄이려는 프로그램의 개발과 관련된 연구는 부족한 면이 있다. I-대학에서는 학업준비가 부족하고 소외된 부류의 학생들에게 초점을 맞춰 프로그램을 개발하였다. 또한, 개발된 프로그램을 운영한 결과 소외 학생들의 학업성적이 향상되었다. 하지만, 지속가능한 프로그램이 되기 위해서는 학교에서 진행하는 다른 목적의 프로그램과도 연계성이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

최근 국민 보건의료 환경과 수요양상이 급변하고 있으며, 보건 의료부분의 시장 개방도 가속화되고 있다. 산업구조의 전환에 따른 인력 수요의 변화와 대학 입학자원의 감소는 지금까지 비교적 신입생 모집의 어려움이 적었던 보건의료인력 양성학과나 관련학과의 개설을 강력하게 요구하게 되어 4년제 대학의 의료기사 양성학과들은 지속적으로 증가되고 있다. 이에 따라 3년제 대학 졸업자 의료기사들은 4년제 대학졸업자와의 경쟁 상황에 놓이면서 학위취득에 대한 요구가 증대되면서 다양한 방법으로 학위취득을 위한 노력이 이루어지고 있다. 현재 전문대학에서 학사학위 취득을 위한 학점운행제 운영에 관한 조사에서 60.9%가 인지하고 있었으며, 전공심화 과정의 개설예정에 관한 조사에서도 46.9%가 인지하고 있어, 전문대학에서의 다양한 학위 취득에 관한 적극적인 홍보와 사회적 인식의 변화로 4년제 대학과 동등한 학력으로의 인정을 위한 정책적인 방안이 마련되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

한국 사회에서 최근 중요한 사회문제들을 알아내고 1994년과 1999년 시점에서 수행된 선행 연구(한덕웅, 1994; 한덕웅·강혜자, 2000)의 결과들과 비교하여 지난 10년 동안 세 시점에서 일관되게 중요한 사회문제들은 무엇이며 어떤 변화가 나타났는지 알아냈다. 2004년에는 모두 370개 사회문제의 목록을 사용하여 전국 5개 지역의 1600명(대학생 812명, 장년 788명)에게 조사를 실시했다. 조사 대상의 과반수가 세 시점에서 일관되게 중요하다고 평가한 사회문제들은 1)정치인 부정부패/부조리, 2)환경오염, 3)입시위주 교육, 그리고 4)지방대 출신 취업난이었다. 2004년 시점에서 조사 대상의 과반수 이상이 중요하다고 지각한 사회문제들은 1)높은 실업률, 2)정치인 부정부패/부조리, 3)환경오염, 4)입시위주 교육, 5)취업난, 6)국민의 정치불신, 7)서민생활고, 8)정치적 무능, 9)신용불량자, 10)지방대 출신 취업난, 11)정치 불안, 12)공무원 부정부패였다. 이 결과로부터 최근에 경제와 아울러 정치 문제가 매우 중요하다고 반응한 사람들의 백분율이 1994년과 1999년의 두 시점보다 높아졌음을 알아냈다. 세 시점에서 모두 반응의 백분율이 50위 안에 포함되는 사회문제들만을 가려내어서 시점간 백분율 순위의 상호단순상관을 산출한 결과를 보면 5년 간격으로는 순위상관이 유의했으나 10년 간에는 순위상관이 유의하지 않았다. 이 결과는 50대의 중요한 사회문제들에서 지난 10년 사이에 중요도 순위에서 큰 변화가 있었음을 의미한다. 본 연구에서 얻은 결과들이 나타난 원인 혹은 배경이 되는 요인들과 아울러 중요한 해결 방향을 검토하고 장래 연구의 과제도 논의하였다.

This research collected the curriculum for Dental Technology from a total of 20 schools --3-year colleges and 4-year colleges-- all in Korea. And we analyzed the average credits of subjects from students. As a result of this analysis, we get the conclusion below: 1. In the arithmetic mean of the major basis subjects which graduates and undergraduates answered about each subjects; Seminar, Dental morphology I II, Dental morphology practice I II, and Dental devices & instruments don't have many credits. And averages of the major application subjects credits which are Implants(especially low), Occlusal anatomy practice I II, Dental ceramics practice I II, and Dental ceramics practice are low, mostly have a converged tendency in high points. 2. In an analysis of the correlation which is based on the major basis subjects: Dental esthetic, oral anatomy I II, Dental materal practice III, Dental casting pracedure, Oral hygiene, Health & medical law, Management administration, and Medical terminology have a meaningful difference. (${\rho}$ < 0.05) 3. In an analysis of the correlation which is based on the major application subjects; Crown and bridge prosthodontics practice IV, Complete denture prosthodontics I II III, Complete denture prosthodontics practice I II III, Dental ceramics I II, Dental ceramics practice I II, Dental ceramics practice IIII, Occlusal anatomy I II, Occlusal anatomy practice I, Operative dentistry laboratory technology I, Operative dentistry laboratory technology practice II, Dental attachment laboratory technology practice, Implants, and Dental laboratory clinical practice have meaningful difference. (${\rho}$ < 0.05) 4. In an analysis of the correlation which is based on the ratio of a theory to an actual training; 40:60(38.57%) is the highest, followed by 30:70(30.04%), 50:50(23.32%), 60:40(5.83%), and 70:30(2.24%). These have meaningful difference. (${\rho}$ < 0.05) 5. In an analysis of the correlation which is based on the distinction of sex: Partial denture prosthodontics practice I II III, Complete denture prosthodontics I II III, Complete denture prosthodontics practice I II III, Occlusal anatomy practice I II, Implants, Medical terminology have meaningful difference. (${\rho}$ < 0.05) For the purpose of training entrepreneurs of middle standing who is required by a future society, Department of Dental Technology's Curriculum need to be managed with planning a curriculum which reflects opinions of graduates, undergraduates and a society, and also are considered not focusing on a supplier but focusing on a user.
