The purposes of the study were to identify the concept of teaching portfolios, learning portfolios, and its contents and to investigate the foreign universities' application of teaching and learning portfolios on their professorship and teaching achievement evaluation. To have rationale for the study, literature review and data collection methodology were hired. The concept of teaching and learning portfolios have been used in many ways of meaning as well as in multiple approach in teaching-learning processes. The selected ten foreign universities have had teaching and learning portfolios on their professorship and teaching achievement evaluation as a way of promotion and or incentives to employment decisions. On the other hand, domestic universities do not have the system yet, or they are launching it to enact with infusing engineering program. It is also proposed that to improve the quality of the education program, learning portfolios should be used much more than lecture plan used. Learning portfolios should be developed by learners to coping with the teaching portfolio in all teaching and learning processes.

This paper proposed a low power CMOS Flash-SAR A/D converter which consists of a Flash A/D converter for 2 most significant bits and a SAR A/D converter with capacitor D/A converter for 8 least significant bits. Employment of a Flash A/D converter allows the proposed circuit to enhance the conversion speed. The SAR A/D converter with capacitor D/A converter provides a low power dissipation. The proposed A/D converter consumes $136{\mu}W$ with a power supply of 1V under a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process and achieves 9.16 effective number of bits for sampling frequency up to 2MHz. Therefore it results in 120fJ/step of Figure of Merit (FoM).

Full-duplex communications have emerged as a key technology for next-generation wireless local area networks (WLANs). Although the key enabling technology for full-duplex communications is the self-interference cancellation (SIC) technique in the physical layer, the employment of full-duplex communications has huge potentials to substantially increase the throughput at the medium access control (MAC) layer. At the same time, full-duplex communications pose non-trivial challenges to the MAC protocol design. In this article, we first identify salient problems in supporting full-duplex communications in WLAN MAC protocols. After that, we survey the state-of-the art to address those problems and analyze their pros and cons. Finally, we present open research challenges to improve the effectiveness of full-duplex communications in WLANs.

This study explored the entrepreneurial intention of university students by empirical study on them and studied the various variables, which have impact on their entrepreneurial intention. The result of examination on the impact factors of each independent variable on entrepreneurial intention was as following. There were significant relation with individual ability in individual characteristics and with safety orientation, autonomy orientation, technology orientation and business orientation in career orientation. The examination result on the impact of entrepreneurial environment on entrepreneurial intention was as following. There was significant relation between individual network and entrepreneurial policy. It was also possible to find that a student, who received entrepreneurial education as one of control variables, has higher entrepreneurial intention than a student who did not receive entrepreneurial education. Especially, business orientation was the most significant factor on entrepreneurial intention among multiple significant variables. Therefore, diverse entrepreneurial education programs should be developed and supplied so that university students can create business idea of own and reinforce the design ability related to the business.

Purpose: This study aims to find the factors that affect the degree of self-care performance in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Method: This study used a descriptive correlational design. The data were collected using a sample of 80 PD patients, from the university affiliated Parkinson Center in Busan. Pearson's correlations and multiple regression analyses were conducted using the SPSS 18.0. Results: The mean score of the self-care performance was 3.61 (${\pm}0.40$). The highest score observed of self-care performance subscale was medication subscale ($4.55{\pm}0.50$) and the lowest score was observed in the exercise subscale ($3.03{\pm}0.64$). The self-care performance had significant correlations with depression (r=-.32, p<.01), self-care knowledge (r=.28, p<.05), function of motion (r=.25, p<.05), ability of daily activity (r=.22, p<.05), self-efficacy (r=.24, p<.05), and support from medical staff (r=.24, p<.05). The significant predictors of self-care performance included depression (${\beta}=-.28$), status of employment (${\beta}=-.27$), self-care knowledge (${\beta}=-.21$), support from medical staff (${\beta}=-.28$), and educational level (${\beta}=-.28$), accounting for 34% of the variance in the self-care performance. Conclusion: Depression, self-care knowledge, medical support are significant predictors which affect the self-care performance with PD patients.

In modern society, people will obtain the necessary goods and find meaning of himself and his community through jobs. The meaning of job for people with disabilities is identical with people's with non-disabilities and people with disabilities will live as a member of society through jobs. Because people with hearing impairment have a problem about job such as the short longevity and high turnover, vocational aptitude test which evaluates psychological characteristics, aptitudes and interests is necessary for them. In this paper, we design and evaluate the picture vocational interest inventory supporting the Internet as a vocational aptitude test for people with hearing impairment. We use the picture vocational interest inventory of Korean Employment Development Institute as a implementation target. The previous tests for people with hearing impairment have a problem which an examinee, an examiner and a sign language interpreter are involved in the test at the same space and time. Therefore, our picture vocational interest inventory has no limitation of time and space because it processes on the Internet.
