  • Today, with the advance of Information and communication technology, 'Smart, connected' toys, which apply technologies related to IoT (Internet of Things) to traditional toys, are emerging and rapidly growing. This research aims to analyze the tendencies and limitations of smart, connected toys through exploring the representative cases of smart, connected toys based on characteristics of ICBM (Internet of Things, Cloud, Big-data, and Mobile) technology. For this study, we begin by understanding literature research about smart, connected toys and ICBM technology. Then, we extracted the characteristics of ICBM technology for connecting physical and digital environments through investigating cases to which ICBM technologies are applied. Based on the extracted characteristics, the case studies of smart, connected toys were conducted. In this research, we explore the level of ICBM technology application and limitation to smart, connected toys. We expect this research will contribute to providing guidelines for developing smart, connected toys based on the characteristics of the latest technology.

  • This study examined the empathy relationship experiences of adolescents in relationships with school social workers. The researchers conducted individual interviews with 10 adolescents from low-SES families. The primary interview query was 'What have empathy relationship experiences with school social workers meant to you?' Interview responses were coded and the results were analyzed using phenomenological research methods. The empathy experiences of adolescents were identified as the following: 'tried to build empathy','understanding another's feelings', 'helpfulness'. The study's results summarized the adolescents' feelings of empathy resulting from their interactions with school social workers. In conclusion, the study suggested some useful strategies for school social workers in their work with adolescents from low-SES families. These strategies are designed to maximize adolescents' ability to feel empathy for others.

  • As malicious comments are emerging as social problems, the solution is needed. Many studies have been conducted in various perspectives to understand and prevent malicious comments. In the previous researches, the neutralization of malicious comments has attracted attention as an important factor explaining the malicious comments, but the difference of the degree of neutralization according to the gender has not been rarely considered. In addition, although there are many environmental characteristics that are different from reality in online, research with malicious comments is insufficient. Based on these facts, this study examined moderating effects of gender on relationship between malicious comments and neutralization, and demonstrated the effects of online environmental factors (anonymity, lack of social presence) on malicious comments. As a result of the study, we discovered that the influence of online environmental factors was not found, but neutralization of malicious comments had strong direct influence on malicious comments and moderating effect of gender difference. Based on the results of this study, we discuss academic and practical implications and suggest limitations of research and future research directions.

  • A fire phenomenon of a solid such as wood involves a phenomenon in which solid is heated from the outside and the gas generated through the thermal pyrolysis process of the material is burnt. The thermal pyrolysis phenomenon of the solid is a phenomenon in which the amount of energy incident from the outside, the amount of heat dissipation of the solid material, the heat transfer between the solid material and the surroundings including the amount of heat transfer to the air adjacent to the solid surface, and the fraction of oxygen in the air. In this paper, we calculate the required ignition temperature to simulate the fire phenomenon as simple as possible. By using cone calorimeter, the ignition time was measured by variously controlling the heat flux flowing into the wood specimen by using various wood specimens. The user friendly program is developed for calculation of the ignition temperature. Five different woods such as low density MDF, high density MDF, plywood, douglas fir and PB with various thickness are considered. The ignition temperatures suggested in this paper can be used for fire propagation analysis for woods.

  • Most universities have been concerned about Liberal Education; whether is it on universal truth, or on training job-specialists? In consequence, the curricula have been reformed and promoted diversely. In this aspect, has been developed as convergence education. I selected two easy and short texts and tried to make the students practice and memorize the dialogues as many as possible. At the end of the class, the students presented given assignments, with theatrical performance. This study carried out the research of students' presentation and theatrical performances on the basis of group study, together with a survey of the results of questionnaires and lecture evaluation. Therefore it was a exploratory study to check out significance of variables through the correlation analysis. The students' questionnaires showed the improvement of their English ability, together with their knowledge about literature and drama, cultivating humanities through the theatrical performance. It may be said that has achieved multi-functional effects of English class converged literature, theatre and humanities even for one semester.

  • The Altai Humanities Belt connecting Siberia to Central Asia is very important to the history of civilization. It had a huge influence on the formation of an ancient civilization in the Korean Peninsula. Therefore, a variety of studies have been carried out in the field of folklore and anthropology as well as archeology. One of these studies is about the oral epic. The oral epic remains in the form of a unique transmission in Korea, but it wasn't that long ago when it was noted as the component of the Altai Humanities Belt. In that context, some epics from Central Asia, Mongolia, and Siberia were introduced to Korea. This preliminary investigation is conducted to introduce the oral epic Olonkho from Yakutia in Siberia to Korean academia. Although it was revealed recently, Olonkho is highly valued. The epic study has been buried from the Western point of view, but Olonkho is expected to provide a global perspective to the field of epic study. Above all, it contains a very significant clue to a new study because the content and the style of performance are considerably different from those of the West. Additionally, the original form is relatively well preserved. In particular, it explains how human thinking and behaviors have changed in the transition from the mythical age to the heroic age. This change appears in the ethnic history of Yakutia, as well as in the formation process for all Altai countries around the 10th century. Therefore, this preliminary investigation will be a foundation to facilitate the translation of the voluminous Olonkho into Korean, and to conduct full-fledged research on it. In particular, it can motivate a study on the differences and similarities in comparison to the tradition of oral epics between Central Asia and the Korean Peninsula. Furthermore, it will serve as a foundation for the formation of the Altai Humanities Belt.

  • Hypochaeris radicata, native to Europe and Eurasia, is a perennial plant of the Asteraceae family. In Korea, H. radicata was reported in 1992, mainly in Jeju Island, and gradually spreading to the inland. It overwinters in the form of a rosette and blooms yellow flowers from May to June. H. radicata propagates by seeds and rhizomes. The germination temperature of the seed is 15/20℃ (day/night), and the rhizome forms a new plant at a depth of 2-3cm in the soil. The roots of H. radicata secrete allelochemicals that inhibit the development of other plants. Some use it as a salad or forage substitute but to a limited extent. However, extensive research on ampicillin contained in H. radicata has been conducted, and its anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects have been recognized. There are only a few methods to manage H. radicata both culturally and physically. In orchards, soil treatments such as oxyfluorfen and diclobenil, or nonselective foliar treatments such as glufosinate-ammonium and glyphosate are used. Notably, there are no known biological control agents.

  • Fusion and consilience have been important in many aspects of our education and culture. In this flow 2015 revised National Curriculum aimed to cultivate students of abilities of imagining liberally and inventing scientifically and technically. However imagination including imagination in humanities has not been researched in mathematics education part until nowadays, so mathematics education using imagination of raising students with ingenious and harmonizing abilities is hard to discuss concretely. In this paper I studied the opinions of various scholars from ancient times to today, and discussed where imagination reveals itself in mathematics practices. With above results I discussed some possible shape of teaching and learning of mathematics using imagination. And finally we discussed that meanings in the humanities and social aspects.

  • The purpose of this study is to estimate the Willingness To Payment (WTP) of sea-anglers regarding the increase in the abundance of fish resources resulting from the Korean vessel buy-back program using the contingent valuation method. Data was collected through sample surveys of 352 sea-anglers across the nation in 2015. If a 20% increase in the abundance of fish resources resulted from the vessel buy-back program, WTP estimates of sea-anglers per recreational fishing trip were 9,570 won on truncated mean, 16,528 won on mean, and 35,830 won on median, respectively. Additionally, when the number of annual total recreational fishing trips in Korea were estimated as 22,700 thousand trips, the annual increase in national welfare through recreational fishing was estimated to be 217.2 billion won on the truncated mean, 375.2 billion won on the mean, and 813.3 billion won on the median, respectively.
