  • The Korean government has recently invigorated the activities of public diplomacy. It is based on the Public Diplomacy Act enacted in 2016. However, there is a widespread concern that it was belatedly enacted and showed necessity to a revision. We believe that this paper contains three contributions which were not sufficiently addressed before. First, we identify the current state of public diplomacy-related legislation in Korea. Second, we argue the necessity to critically review the legal adequacy of Public Diplomacy Act with a consideration of rapidly changing external environment. Lastly, we propose several ways of revision for the future development of public diplomacy in Korea. When revising the Act, it is necessary to make clear a legal connection between the general law and the special law as in the case of the Korea Foundation Act and the Public Diplomacy Act. In this regard, it is worth examining the relationship between the Framework Act on International Development Cooperation and related norms. In addition, the role of the private sector and subnational governments should be expanded. For this purpose, a method and level of cooperation with the private sector should be clearly defined.

  • The purposes of this study which was conducted by applying three projection formulae to the data from admission quota for paramedic of the Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development the number of ambulances the number of emergency medical centers of the Ministry of Health & Welfare and rate of successful candidates of annual report of the National Health Personnel Licensing Examination Board were to find out demand and supply of paramedic from 2002 to 2045 and to expand scope of practice of paramedic in Korea. The conclusions from this study were summarized as follows; (1) The simple formulae derived from the projection formula of the Economic Planning Board were applied under the present Emergency Medical Services Act including qualifying over 3-years experienced EMT-Basic for paramedic examinee, stationing paramedic or EMT-Basic or physician or nurse per ambulance, stationing paramedic or EMT-Basic per emergency medical center and under the amended Emergency Medical Services Act including qualifying only paramedic graduate for paramedic examinee, stationing 4.5 paramedics per ambulance, stationing 10 to 2 paramedics per emergency medical center. (2) It was estimated that on the American basis of 5.6 EMTs per 10,000 in 1996, the number of paramedics under the present act will reach the basis before 2020, the number of paramedics under the amended act will reach the basis about 2040. (3) It was estimated that on the basis of 22,000 paramedics demanded from the number of ambulances, the number of emergency medical centers in 2001, the number of paramedics under the present act will reach the basis before 2015, the number of paramedics under the amended act will reach the basis about 2030. (4) There was relationship between requirements for emergency medical centers scope of practice of paramedic in the act and demand-supply of paramedic, this necessitates surveys, studies, amendment of the act, legalization for expanded scope of practice of paramedic including EMD, instructor, teacher of safety. (5) This study which includes only expanded scope of practice of paramedic and projection for paramedic in the act needs complementary studies such as decision-making process in health manpower policy and so on.

  • Building use classification is classified the building types according to the similar structure, the goal of the use, and its shape. The important reason of building use classification is that building restrictions are applied according to building use classifications. But there are a lot of confusion because the building use classification is regulated not only by the Building Act but also by the several individual Act. Particularly in the large-scaled, high-raised and complex building construction, it is very important to remain the consistency of the building use classification between the Building Act and the Fire-Fighting System Act for safety of occupants. So the purpose of this study is to suggests the improve direction of the building use classifications through the comparative analysis of the Building Act and the Fire-Fighting System Act.

  • Since the enactment of the "Framework Act on the Korean Language (herein after "Act ), researchers have focused their studies on measuring whether the Act played a huge role in providing Korean education. This can be confirmed by many, that the Act has indeed played a huge part in providing Korean language education. However, little attention was given to the validity of the education curriculum for prospective Korean language teachers as provided by the Act. Therefore, this survey has been conducted to provide an insight to teachers' perception of the Korean language curriculum for prospective teachers and will test whether such perception meets the standards in which the Act has been enacted. In this survey, we have received response on the importance of each domain and subject in the areas of Korean language education as viewed by the Korean language teachers. The results revealed the importance in the following order: Teaching Practice, Korean Linguistics, Korean Educational Linguistics, General Linguistics, and Korean Culture. These results strongly suggest that there is a need for the current curriculum, laid out by the Act, to be reconsidered to stress different levels of importance and time assignment for each category. The survey analysis shows the disparity in importance within the curriculum between the Act and the views in which the Korean language teachers perceive Korean language education. While further research is needed to confirm the analysis of this survey, this area of research will be instrumental in determining the suggestive shapes of the curriculum governed by the Act in the years to come.

A Study on the Comparison between 「SECURITY SERVICES INDUSTRY ACT」 and 「ACT ON THE PROTECTION, ETC. OF TEMPORARY AGENCY WORKERS」 among Security Guards (「경비업법」상 경비원과 「파견근로자보호 등에 관한 법률」상 경비원의 비교에 관한 연구)

  • According to the Security Services Industry Act security guards are not just workers but security-related service workers complementing the lack of police force and specializing in protecting of national important facilities, industrial facilities and apartment houses. Nevertheless, confusing or mixing the security service workers in "Security Services Industry Act" with the guards in the "Act on the Protection etc. of Temporary Agency Workers" lead to a constant debate about the scope of work of security guards. In the case of security service workers in "Security Services Industry Act" there is a strict limitations on security service worker's qualification such as strict reasons for disqualification, a need to pass training for new workers and qualification training, a need to report to the competent chief police officer if the security guard has placed or unplaced by the security service company. It distinguishes security service workers in "Security Services Industry Act" from the guards in the "Act on the Protection etc. of Temporary Agency Workers" and acknowledges the occupation of security service worker as a professional service worker. Therefore, security service workers in "Security Services Industry Act" shouldn't be obliged to do any other work than security work. If it is required to do other work than security work contract by the "Security Services Industry Act" doesn't apply but need to use a security guard according to "Act on the Protection etc. of Temporary Agency Workers" or hire a security guard on the employment contract. In this way, when security service workers in "Security Services Industry Act" are recognized as professional security related workers, the entire security industry can ultimately develop.

  • The basic legislations regulating the private security in Korea are Private Security Business Act and Private Policeman Act. But this dualistic system of private security causes difficulties in unity and efficiency of private security operation and makes it complicated to supervise each personnel with effect. Besides despite similar service and duty, there is all the difference between private security guard and private policeman in regard of social position, pay, authority, and so on. Therefore it is suggested that the two Acts should be unified and the united private security act should be enacted. Legislating new private security act will lead to considering the detail legislative definition on qualification of personnels and business range.

  • 인지모델(Cognitive Model)에 의한 사용성 평가는 실제 실험에 의한 방법에 비해 시간, 노력, 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 여러 인지모델 중 ACT-R(Adaptive Control of Thought Rational)은 인간의 모든 인지과정을 상세하게 묘사할 수 있어 다른 모델보다 정확히 인간의 과제 수행을 정량적으로 예측할 수 있다. 그러나 ACT-R 모델을 수립하기 위해서는 인간의 지각, 주의, 기억 인출 등의 처리 과정과 행동 선택 및 수행에 필요한 과제 수행 규칙을 매우 상세하게 분석 및 기술해야 하기 때문에, GUI(Graphic User Interface) 환경에서 운용되는 메뉴 인터페이스와 같이 다양한 시각적 정보의 처리가 요구되는 과제에 대한 모델을 수립하는데는 많은 시간과 노력이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 GUI 환경에서 전문가 수준의 과제 수행을 예측할 수 있는 간략화한 ACT-R 모델 수립 방안을 제안하고, 이를 이용하여 상용 통계 분석 소프트웨어의 과제 수행도를 예측하였다. 그 결과 실제 실험을 통한 측정 결과와 간략화한 ACT-R 모델의 예측 결과가 잘 일치하였으며 본 연구에서 제시한 간략화한 ACTR 모델이 메뉴 인터페이스의 사용성 평가에 효율적으로 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
