We would like to find out how restaurant start-up education affects restaurant start-ups. Recently, as low barriers to entry and endemics are approaching, more and more people want to start a restaurant business. However, while the market size of restaurant start-ups increases due to the high youth unemployment rate and changes in the social population structure, the probability of failure of start-ups is increasing due to the high competition rate. Therefore, this study aims to examine whether restaurant start-up education affects restaurant start-ups through entrepreneurship. This study conducted a survey on prospective start-ups. After that, demographic analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS 23.0 program. As a result, it was found that entrepreneurship had an effect on restaurant start-ups. However, in future studies, more research is needed on the direction of improving and developing restaurant start-up education.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify any influence of socioeconomic status on smoking and smoking cessation in a situation where genetic factors are controlled. Methods: The sample for this study was 2502 members of the twins and families cohort who participated in the Korean Healthy Twins Study from 2005 to 2009. Groups of brothers or sisters, including twins and fraternal twins, were compared in terms of smoking and smoking cessation behaviors according to differences in socioeconomic status and gender. Results: In a situation with complete control of genetic factors, results showed that the daily smoking amount, cumulative smoking amount, and dependence on nicotine decreased with higher-status occupations, and the rate of smoking and amount of cumulative smoking decreased with higher levels of education. Regarding smoking cessation behavior, a higher level of education was associated with a lower smoking cessation rate, and no significant gender differences were found. Conclusions: Environmental factors had a stronger influence on smoking behavior than did genetic factors. Genetic factors had greater influence on smoking cessation than did environmental factors; however, this requires verification in further studies.

The purpose of this study was to report the effects of self-directed and self-regulated learning programs on elementary, middle, and high school students through meta-analysis of previous studies. For this research, 22 of previous studies were selected which were all conducted in the country, and calculated the effect size of 'standardized change of the mean difference' for many factors included in each research. The findings were as follows: first, the overall effect sizes of self-directed and self-regulated learning programs on elementary, middle, and high school students were .665 and .702 in the affective and cognitive domain, respectively, meaning that the self-directed and self-regulated learning programs had average or greater effects on elementary, middle, and high school students and exerted somewhat greater effects in the cognitive domain. Second, when the areas of moderating effects were divided into self-directed and self-regulated learning, the former and latter had more influences on the cognitive and affective domains, respectively. Third, the elementary school level recorded a larger effect size both in the affective and cognitive domains than the secondary school level. Fourth, the findings show that the characteristics of affective domain, "reflective thinking" and "self-confidence," recorded a very large effect size both at the elementary and secondary school levels. Finally, the programs were more effective when the application period was one to four weeks in the affective domain and more than four weeks in the cognitive domain. And, Significance and implications of this research were discussed.

Researchers who is intereted in Environmental Education have been concentrated on the Environmental subject since it was involved in school curriculum. But the selection percentage of Environmental subject is so low. So. I think Environmental Education researchers should be interested in Environmental Clubs in school because most students can easily take Environmental Education through Environmental Clubs than Environmental subject. The Environmental NGO, H, is interested in Environmental Clubs in school. The NGO held the camp that is called “Teenagers Environmental Club Festival” to encourage the environmental Clubs. I got some significances from the camp. First, Not only the camp but also post-education is required with on/off lines. Second, When the Environmental NGO makes a plan which supports Environmental Clubs in school, you should consider the school level. Third, activities' contents should be composed according to the level of students. Fourth, Students must involved in camp management team. Fifth, Management team which is composed of the NGO's planners, Environmental Education researchers, Environmental Club teachers and students is required.

The current situation of heating and cooling system of the classrooms of our country is rather poor compared not only to those of the developed nation's classrooms but also in case of other buildings such as financial institutions, office compounds. In winter, especially students have been in hatred state with respect to their health due to the fact that the heater is operated by petroleum. Korea has been heavily dependent on foreign nations for the very fact of importing energy in the form of oil or natural gas. So it is important to conserve energy and the picture with respect to energy remains similar till today as it was in long past periods. The purpose of this study is to contribute actively in energy economy and facilitate towards a healthy school life of students and other institutions proving a system of extracting energy from river water and then converting it into heat which can stand as an effective alternate of expensive oil or gas. Installing oil-stove based heating system at classrooms of school could get considerable attentation in several respects. The proposed heat energy could be collected unlimitedly both in time and in amount. The stable and uninterrupted heat energy from river water, optimally utilizing the typical-regional and geographical characteristics has the potential to be long-lasting in duration, cheap in energy economy and beneficial to health as well.

The purpose of this study is to propose the possibility of integrating creativity and character education and its need in mathematics education by developing and validating a testing tool assessing students' perceptions of mathematical creativity and character. For this purpose, we developed sixty questions in total to extract factors of mathematical creativity and character based on a literature review. Then, questionnaire data were collected for 1258 middle school students. After the collected data were randomly divided into two (n1=615, n2=643), the first group of data was used for exploratory factor analysis and the second one was employed for confirmatory factor analysis. As a result, 45 problems showing nine factors were extracted. The cognitive components of creativity includes divergent thinking, convergent thinking, imagination/visualization, and reasoning, whereas its affective components are interest, motivation, and openness. The character components contain participation, communication, responsibility, and promise. In addition, it is concluded that the developed testing tool, in which character in the model of this study impacts creativity meaningfully, has a measurement consistency which is not affected by gender and grade differences. These results have implications for a guide to curriculum development promoting creativity and character at school by showing objective and practical foundations of helping how to integrate creativity and character education.
