This study examined the Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS) National Standards with some examples at the state level, analyzed the previous studies relevant to curriculum implementation in the USA, and explored critical success factors in moving toward the new perspective curriculum in exemplary states. The process, in which the FCS discipline struggled to clarify the identity and image as well as to find the mission and vision, produced the FCS National Standards in 1998 and 2008 in the USA. The FCS National Standards were established to fulfill the mission of the FCS based on a critical science perspective. The previous research on a state level implementation indicated that the majority of FCS state administrators agreed that the National Standards positively influenced curriculum development. The critical success factors in integrating National Standards into local programs included the dissemination of thephilosophical works of Marjorie Brown, the foundation of the FCS curriculum with a critical science perspective, the establishment of National Standards corresponding to the philosophical works and a critical science perspective, the openness of state FCS administrators to educational reform, the construction of an infrastructure to support reform, and the commitment by university professors to develop a teacher training program. The critical success factors identified can be employed as an informative guide for the future development and implementation of the Family and Consumer Sciences curriculum in Korea.

이 연구의 목적은 미국 국가 기준 가정과교육과정(NSFCS 3.0)의 내용 영역 및 역량과 유네스코 세계시민교육(Global Citizenship Education[GCED])의 관련성을 살펴보는 것이다. 이를 위해 NSFCS 3.0 내 '세계' 관점과 내용 영역 및 역량 요소들과 유네스코 세계시민교육의 3가지 영역의 9가지 내용 요소의 핵심어를 분석하였다. 구체적으로, NSFCS 3.0의 문서에 기술된 '세계' 관점과 관련된 단어들을 추출하고 그와 연관된 부분의 내용 기준과 역량 요소들과 세계시민교육의 주제와 비교한 후, 이 영역의 핵심어와 관련성을 분석하였다. NSFCS 3.0과 유네스코 세계시민교육과의 관련성을 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, NSFCS 3.0에서는 내용 기준과 역량에서 '세계'라는 핵심어를 명시하여 '대인관계', '부모됨' 2개 영역을 제외한 14개 영역에서 개인을 세계시민으로 인식하여 개인과 세계와의 직접적인 상관관계를 기술하였다. 둘째, NSFCS 3.0의 내용 기준 및 역량에서 세계시민교육 영역별 학습 주제와 관련된 핵심어는 가정학의 식생활, 가족생활, 인간발달에서는 세 영역 모두 고르게 제시되어 있었으며, 의생활, 주생활, 소비생활에서는 사회·정서적 영역이 제시되지 않았다. 반면, 세계시민교육에서 가장 강조하는 행동적 영역은 모든 가정학 영역에 제시되어 세계시민교육을 위한 학습의 장은 가정과교육이 추구하는 삶의 영역으로 볼 수 있다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 NSFCS 3.0과 세계시민교육을 관련지어 이해하고, 우리나라 차기 가정과교육과정의 개정에 세계시민 교육의 내용요소를 어떻게 포함할 수 있는가에 대한 방향을 제시하는 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

This study examined the consumers' awareness and information need toward the irradiated foods and environmental hormones. The data were collected from 350 adults living in Daegu and Busan by the self-administered questionnaire. Frequencies and chi-square tests were conducted by SPSS. The results of the survey were as follows: (1) consumers' awareness regarding the irradiated foods and environmental hormones were low, while consumers' concerns for them were high, (2) the orders of the information needs for the irradiated foods are safety of irradiated foods, dose permitted for food irradiation, benefits of irradiated foods, kinds of permitted irradiated foods, and legislations of food irradiation, and (3) the orders of the information needs for the environmental hormones are harmfulness of environmental hormones, standards for contamination by environmental hormones, materials releasing environmental hormones, methods to prevent environmental hormones, and kinds of environmental hormones.

Even though the food safety system in the United States is one of the best in the world, many millions of people become sick and thousands die from foodborne illnesses caused by any of a number of microbial pathogens and other contaminants. Large recalls of United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Food Drug and Administration (US FDA)-regulated food products due to findings of E. coli O157:H7, Listeria, Salmonella, and other problems occur each year. As the US FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) passed in 2011, FSMA will require food processing, manufacturing, shipping, and other regulated entities to conduct an analysis of the most likely safety hazards and to design and implement risk-based controls to reduce or eliminate these hazards. FSMA also mandates increased scrutiny of food imports, which account for a growing share of U.S. food consumption; food import shipments will have to be accompanied by documentation showing that they can meet safety standards that are at least equivalent to those in the U.S. On September 17, 2015, the US FDA published final rules for Preventive Controls for Human and Animal Food and, continuing into 2016, the US FDA intends to finalize the remaining five rules it has proposed to implement FSMA. Among these rules, this article will review and discuss Preventive Controls for Human Food Rule and its components, and suggest how to comply with these FSMA rules as foreign human food and ingredients suppliers to the US.
