For the wide spread of cyber education, it is important to understand the instructional characteristics of cyber education and its applications in the educational sites which help to cope with the practical needs and problems. This study was conducted to analyze the experience of cyber classes(working hours, tasks and evaluation, satisfaction level and instructional effectiveness, suggestions for cyber education) and use of instructional methodology (instructional activities, interaction frequencies, cooperative learning activities, instructional activities toward knowledge building). The data was collected from pre-service teachers(403) and in-service teachers(318) in June 2004. The results were that pre-service and in-service teachers all consider the satisfaction level and academic achievement level of cyber classes lower than that of FTF classes. Particularly the boring presentation of instructional materials and the inadequate instructional strategies for cyber classes were the biggest complains, and lack of interaction among peer groups and with instructors, lack of learning opportunity for cyber instructional strategies, limited group activities, lack of interaction with experts were followed. Limited types of evaluation also showed that cyber classes focus on results more than the process of students' academic achievement.

The government of South Korea discusses ways to expand computer science education to solve the digital divide. In-service elementary school teachers are also aware of the need for computer science education, with 77.3% of those who responded positively to the expansion of computer science education. The participating elementary school in this study has conducted computer science education for more than an hour per a week since the 1980s. As a result of a survey, the proportion of students taking private education was 16.2%. It shows 50.3% lower than 66.5% of other surveys conducted in 2021, which means the effectiveness in reducing private education when continuous computer science education is being conducted in the school system. In the case study analysis, teachers pointed out that the instructional content varies by instructors due to the absence of the national curriculum. The parents recognized the importance of computer science education but did not know the learning content and mentioned the necessity of the national computer science education curriculum. It means that computer science education should provide a universal educational opportunity as an independent subject in elementary schools for nurturing future talents.

Despite the importance of science education in an informal environment, the reality is that there is a lack of trend analysis research on 'Informal Science Learning (ISL)' and its effects. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to find out the educational effects of ISL and how to use it, and to provide guidelines for future ISL research directions. This study classifies specific ISL-related papers published from 2010 to 2019 and compares them with each element of GLO used to measure the effectiveness of informal education. The fit of the analyzed data was checked for each part through SPSS and Chi-Square. In conclusion, it was found that researchers are using 'ISL' to pursue 'Knowledge and Understanding' and 'Attitudes and Values' among the five performance indicators of 'GLO'. On the other hand, 'Skills' and 'Enjoyment, Inspiration and Creativity' appear to have the least expectations, so supplementation is required in these areas in the future. In addition, this study intends to suggest a direction for informal science education-related program development and future research to various education workers.

This study was conducted to understand the relationship between the clinical competency of nursing students and their adult attachment and self-differentiation of nursing students. Data collection was conducted from the third and fourth grade students who had experienced clinical practice in a nursing university at Daejeon, Chungcheong province in two nursing universities at Daejeon and Chungcheong province. Finally, 169 out of initial 200 questionnaires were used for analysis. The collected data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation effectiveness, and stepwise multiple regression using the SPSS Statistics 22 Windows program. Attachment avoidance in adult attachment was significantly correlated with self-differentiation (r=-240, p=.002) and clinical competency (r=-.237, p=.002). Clinical competency was significantly correlated with attachment avoidance (r=-.237, p=.002) and self-differentiation (r=.248, p=.001). The result of stepwise multiple regression indicates that self-differentiation and attachment avoidance (F=8.707, p<.001) predicts 8.4% in clinical competency. The most powerful predictor was self-differentiation (${\beta}=.203$, p=.008), followed by attachment avoidance (${\beta}=.188$, p=.0015). Therefore, in order to improve the clinical competency of nursing college students, it is deemed necessary to develop and apply educational and counseling programs capable of increasing their level of self-differentiation while decreasing their degree of attachment avoidance.

The importance of selection methods of secondary school teachers have gathered attention due to their enormous influence on the pre-service education programs. However, scholars and practitioners are skeptical about the effectiveness of the measures, especially under the condition of teacher oversupply found in South Korea and China. Based on this problem statement, this study seeks to compare the secondary teacher employment methods of the two countries to better understand the situations as well as to draw implications for improvement. We reach the following conclusions through comparative analyses. First, the reforms of the teacher employment system in both countries have been triggered by the quantitative supply concerns not by the qualitative concerns. Second, both countries require teaching license as a precondition of employment, while their quality assurance measures for the license reveal critical limitations. Third, both countries have attempted to improve selection methods; nevertheless, oversupply of prospective teachers makes objectivity and fairness more important than the appropriateness. Based on the conclusions, policy implications focusing on the quality-oriented approach are suggested in order to employ effective secondary teachers who can contribute to the quality improvement of school education.
