Although $CD4^+$ T cell responses to protein-derived antigen have well been understood, the epitopes recognized by hapten-specific $CD4^+$ T cells have not been fully defined. In this study, we characterized the response of a T cell hybridoma (5Di0.1B8) which is specific for a hapten. N-hydroxysuccinimidyl-4-azidobenzoate (HSAB) restricted by MHC class II $I-A^d$. Using three different antigen presenting cells (APCs) expressing $I-A^d$, the role of class II MHC proteins in haptenic antigen presentation and subsequent activation of 5D10.1B8 has been examined. Activation of 5D10.1B8 T cells by HSAB analogs was also performed. Our results show that each APC activated T cells differentially and that interleukin-2 (IL-2) augmented antigen-presenting ability of all the APCs, suggesting that increased expression of class II MHC protein by IL-2 played an important role in HSAB presentation and T cell activation. Finally, early T cell receptor-dependent signals induced by HSAB or its analogs were examined by phosphotyrosine immunoblot analysis, and showed that tyrosine phosphorylation level of a 18-20 kD protein increased upon stimulation.

This paper examined the role of intermediate texts in the writing process in the context of an EFL composition class. From the tradition of teacher research, this study examined how the Korean college students in different proficiency groups created intermediate texts and used them while composing their own writing. The students produced various types of intermediate texts during the compositing process, which could serve as a basis of their writing. However, the patterns of using these intermediate texts differed widely across the proficiency groups. A writing cycle for the low proficiency group, or "surface reading-few intermediate texts-writing," indicates that less proficient students tended to engage in reading in separation of writing practices and thus produced few intermediate texts through their literacy practices. On the other hand, the students in the higher proficiency groups revealed the more integrated pattern (i.e., purpose reading/intermediate texts/writing), indicating that they often engaged in reading with specific writing purposes, practiced reading in connection to other writing practices, and elaborated written intermediate texts produced. This study argues that, to shift our student writers to a higher level category, we as teachers need to help them engage in reading and writing practices in the way they produce and use intermediate texts appropriate to their specific writing purposes.

As movie demands become more and more diversified, it is necessary for movie related firms to segment a whole heterogeneous market into a number of small homogeneous markets in order to identify the specific needs of consumer groups. Relevant market segmentation helps them to develop valuable offer to target segments through effective marketing planning. In this article, we introduce various segmentation methods and compare their advantages and disadvantages. In particular, we analyze "2009~2010 consumer survey data of Korean Film Industry" by using Latent Class Analysis(LCA), a statistical segmentation method which identifies exclusive set of latent classes based on consumers' responses to an observed categorical and numerical variables. It is applied PROC LCA, a new SAS procedure for conducting LCA and finally get the result of 11 distinctive clusters showing unique characteristics on their buying behaviors.

This study has its purpose to develop an optimal teaching model in math class leading to an effective device of open education in mathematics being transformed from the current teacher-centered teaching to the individually specified student-centered one on the basis of the definitions and methods of open education learned from sundry literature references. Accordingly, this paper established several patterns of effective open math class for teaching specific math's contents, followed by developing applicable teaching-learning models for class situation rested on each math lesson's features. Unit learning models for open education in mathematics, which were made step by step according to each unit's contents were also presented to be applied to real class situations.

This study is aimed at investigating the aspects of peer correction and responses of English composition in the web-based class. The participants for this study are students enrolled in the 'preparatory college cyber study center'. Two assignments were given--composition with no feedback and composition followed by student feedback. The participants' feedbacks, responses, and attitudes in peer interaction were analysed. The processes of these two assignments were also compared. The results were as follows: First, students' competitive attitude changed into cooperative attitude when peer-revision was followed. Second, both formal and content feedback were shown in the cyber composition class just as in the classroom composition class, but under no specific guidance, the majority of students' feedbacks were formal feedbacks. Third, some characteristics of web-based writing were found. In the web-based writing class where around a hundred students are enrolled. students' feedbacks were inevitable. The results of this study supported the use of students feedback.

In this paper, we propose an improvement plan to increase the learning effect and satisfaction through the PBL - related video design class. PBL To prepare for the Fourth Industrial Revolution era, we must acquire diverse knowledge and skills to discover problems and solve them creatively. Therefore, various learning methods are being studied, and one of them is PBL learning. PBL is a learner-centered education that explores problems that may arise from specific topics other than existing curriculum-based education methods and finds solutions to problems. In this study, two lectures on video design related to video contents and image contents were taught in PBL class, and PBL class problem was analyzed and the improvement plan was studied.

In recent years, in order to enhance the problem-solving skills required by the industrial field, universities have introduced the Problem-Based Learning(PBL) method to solve the problems caused by the lack of creativity, problem solving ability and self-directed learning. This study applied PBL class methods such as 'learning based on individual specific problems', 'self-directed learning', and 'small-group learning of small members' to practical design of fashion design. To do this, I conducted a questionnaire after conducting research based on the PBL module for one semester in a practical class of fashion design major at P University. As a result of the survey, the satisfaction and achievement of the class conducted by PBL learning method was improved than the existing teaching method. As such, if PBL class is used as a way of solving problems through close communication between professors and learners, it is expected to be established as a learner-centered education method that can improve creativity and professionalism.

A new parameter W/R for the class I test have been introduced in the IEC 61643-1 published in 2005. One of the possible test impulses which meets the parameters for class I test is the 10/350 [${\mu}s$] waveshape proposed in IEC61312-1. 10/350 [${\mu}s$] waveshape meets parameters for class I test in the IEC 61643-1. The impulse generator for making the 10/350 [${\mu}s$] waveshape is consist of IVG, ICG, crowbar coil and crowbar switch. The electric change Q and the specific energy W/R were measured and calculated using the exclusive use measuring software according to the formula of IEC 611643-1. We verified the correspondence between measured results using impulse generator and recommended parameters by IEC 61643-1.

Composite resin restoration on class II cavities is a challenging procedure since it is tough to replicate proper contact, the natural shape of the tooth, etc. Moreover, it is not familiar with the procedure and tools for this specific situation, neither. Nowadays the patients, however, request more and more composite restorations which are relatively quick and more esthetic. In this case report, the class II composite resin restoration procedure is illustrated step by step. Every step must be considered its final consequence thoroughly. In this approach, we can minimize the finishing procedure and save our effort and time.
