This group showed a strong conception of the profession than those who responded that they prefer this profession out of a longing for the work of a hospital and for the easy obtaining of opportunity to immigrate to over seas and for economic cause and for high school grade. There was significant difference between these two groups, 12. As to the conception and attitude toward the profession of nursing according to benefits by scholarships, those who were benefitted by scholarship showed stronger conception of profession than those who did not receive scholarship and there was a remarkable difference between these two categories. However, there was no remarkable difference between these two categories in the extent of interest of the activities of nursing fields and in the reading of Code for Nurses. 13. As activation for study according to the benefits of scholarships, those who were benefitted by scholarships showed stronger response to the motive for study comparing with those who receive. 14. As to tile field of reading according to the benefits by scholarships, those who received scholarships tended to read autobiographies and essayers to a considerable extent. Those who did not receive scholarships tended to read novels. Those who received scholarships more read nursing boots than those who did not receive scholarships. 15. As to the attitude of study and doing of assignment according to benefits of scholarships, those who received scholarships managed a favorable life with schedules for study, More students of receiving scholarship showed a regular study for more than one hour per day. Also, in the method of doing home tasks, more students of receiving scholarship showed reference to relative books frequently for the submission of completed assignments.

Anatomy is one of the basic subjects of the nursing course, which is included in the curriculum of the nursing. Anatomy is a basic course for understanding major in nursing and it is the first gateway to acquire expertise. It is mainly opened in nursing and first to second grades. Therefore, students who have advanced to the nursing department have great interest and expectation on the anatomy subjects. In general, nursing students are studying anatomy with theories and models, and some universities practice on tour after dissection of medical consortium for short time. This is called the Cadaver practice. This study was carried out to investigate the thoughts and experiences of bioethics through nursing students' Cadaver practice. The interview data were processed through the analysis and interpretation process using the phenomenological research method, Giorgi method. As a result, 48 semantic units were derived, and then they were divided into 10 subcomponents and divided into 6 categories. As a result of the analysis, the experience of nursing students' bioethics was tied to the topic of six questions. For example, 'what about the respect and responsibility of nursing students in Cadaver?', 'What about your experience with the Cadaver experiment and bioethics?', 'What was the academic achievement of the actual human body structure viewing experience with cadaver?', 'What was the connection with theory?', 'What was your intention to recommend to others?', 'What was your perception and interest in the Cadaver experiment?'. Analyzes were integrated into 10 structures; "Thank you for your donation", "want others to refuse donation", "Burden of practice", "Good opportunities for learning", "Understand better", "Should study harder", "Memory is better", "Compared to theory", "Good experience", "Want to rejoin". The general structural description of the participants' meanings is summarized as follows. Nursing college students who participated in the Cadaver had a gratitude for the donor, but they said they would like to talk to others about donating organs. Before they went to practice, they felt a lot of pressure on the dissection of the cadaver, but they went to the practice and thought that it was a good opportunity to learn by doing well. Specifically, they understood that they had better understanding than the theoretical lesson, and that they were more eager to study their major through practice. In other words, most of them were more memorable and they would like to participate again if the opportunity comes next time. The results of this study show that the practice of Cadaver in nursing college students is very positive in terms of educational effectiveness. However, in terms of bioethics, it can be seen that the education process is somewhat unsatisfactory. Therefore, the systematic bioethics education should be prepared before the practice in the nursing college students' Cadaver practice.

이 연구의 목적은 우리나라를 포함한 6개국(대만, 영국, 핀란드, 미국, 캐나다, 한국)의 과학과 교육과정에 대한 연계성에 초점을 둔 비교분석을 통해서 우리나라 과학과 교육과정의 연계성을 강화할 수 있는 방안과 그 시사점을 도출하는데 있다. 국가교육과정정보센터(NCIC)에서 수집한 각 나라의 교육과정 원문과 국문 번역본을 분석 대상으로 하였고, 교육과정 구성의 특징과 종적 횡적 연계성 요소를 기초로 한 과학과 내의 '달'과 '암석의 순환'에 대한 내용을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, 국제적으로 교육과정의 학년 간 그리고 교과 간 연계의 강화를 위해 빅 아이디어(Big Ideas)나 교차 개념(Crosscutting Concepts) 등과 같은 연결 고리의 역할을 하는 개념을 활용하고 있음을 알 수 있었고, 그 중에서도 시스템의 관점을 중요하게 다루고 있었다. 내용에 대해서는 비교 국가들 중 우리나라는 '달'과 '암석의 순환'에 대해 가장 높은 빈도로 다루고 있었으나, 달의 내용 중 일부를 초 중 고등학교에서 비슷한 수준으로 동일하게 다루고 있는 단순 반복 현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면, 암석의 순환에 대해서는 다른 나라들에 비해 다양한 관점과 수준에서 다루어 비교적 짜임새 있는 조직 구성을 보였다. 결론적으로, 우리나라 교육과정에도 교육과정의 연계성 강화를 위해 이러한 연결 고리 역할을 할 수 있는 적합한 도구가 요구되며, 그 방안으로 시스템적 접근을 활용할 수 있을 것이다. 더욱이 교육과정의 효과적인 적용을 위해 학년 수준에 따른 학습자의 학습 발달 과정에 대한 충분한 이해를 바탕으로 교육과정을 구성하는 것이 무엇보다 중요할 것이다.

본고는 완당(阮堂)의 서독(書牘)에 나타난 사상을 살피기 위하여 "역(易)" 실학(實學)과 관련된 내용을 추출하여 그 경향에 대하여 논구하였으며, 완당의 도가사상을 파악하는 관점에서 서독에 표출된 도가적 의식도 고찰하였다. 완당의 사상적(思想的) 특성은 다음과 같다. 첫 번째는 수기치인(修己治人)을 위한 "역(易)"의 활용이다. 완당이 가장 중요하게 생각한 것은 백성의 생존과 직결되는 음식남녀(飮食男女)였다. 완당은 "역(易)"으로 '수기(修己)'를 하고 "역(易)"을 활용하여 나라를 다스려야 한다고 주장하였다. 두 번째는 실사구시를 바탕으로 한 '동서불분(東西不分)'의 경세치용(經世致用) 의식과 이용후생(利用厚生)의 자연관이다. 완당은 그 당시의 새로운 학문과 사상을 적극 수용하였으며, 나라를 위하여 서양의 기술을 모방이라도 해야 한다고 피력하였다. 세 번째는 완당의 '무위(無爲)'와 '불언(不言)' 의식이다. 완당은 평소에 저술(著述)이라는 작위(作爲)를 하려고 하지 않았다. 이러한 의식은, 질시와 모함 속에서도 완당의 목숨을 부지(扶持)시키고 양신(養身)으로 연결되도록 작용한 것으로 보인다. 네 번째는 자연순응(自然順應)과 자연회귀(自然回歸) 의식이다. 이는 그의 농사(農事) 소원과 정치관에서 나타나는데, 임금은 의리(義理)와 예절(禮節)로 백성을 속박하지 않아야 하며 '인정(人情)'으로 나라를 다스려야 한다고 하였다. 요컨대 서독에 나타난 완당(阮堂)의 사상(思想)은 두 흐름으로 대별할 수 있다. 하나는 무위자연(無爲自然) 불언(不言) 자연회귀(自然回歸) 의지를 통한 보신(保身)이다. 다른 하나는 수기치인(修己治人) 경세치용(經世致用) 이용후생(利用厚生) 인정(人情)을 따른 덕치(德治) 등을 궁극적 목적으로 한 연찬이다. 그런데 '보신(保身)'은 고도의 '수기(修己)'라고 할 수 있으며, 수기치인(修己治人) 등은 백성의 편안한 삶과 직결되어 있기 때문에 이를 집약하면 '수기이안백성(修己以安百姓)'이라고도 할 수 있겠다. 즉 완당의 사상적 특성은 융합된 유가 도가사상을 기저로 하고 있으며, '수기이안백성(修己以安百姓)'을 목표로 하여, 시대와 학문의 변화를 살펴서 수용 이용하는 것이었다고 할 수 있다.

경제(經濟)의 개방화(開放化) 및 산업구조(塵業構造)의 고도화(高度化)가 진전되면서 국내기업들은 주력사업의 성장이 감퇴하는 구조변화(構造變化)에 직면하게 된다. 극단적인 경우에 도산(倒産)이나 폐업(廢業)을 단행하는 국내 기업들도 있을 것이다. 그러나 보다 우월한 적응능력을 가진 대부분의 대기업이나 중견기업들은 고임금(高賃金)과 현재의 기술여건(技術與件)에서 경쟁우위를 확보할 수 있는 영역(market niches)을 찾아 합리화 및 고부가가치화, 제품 및 시장다각화 등 신축적인 사업조정(事業調整)을 통해 수익성이 낮은 기존사업의 비중을 점차적으로 줄이면서 고수익성(高收益性) 사업(事業)으로 전환(轉換) 할 것이다. 사업구조 조정과정에서 기업(企業)은 단기적으로는 기존의 주력사업 내에서 경영합리화 및 감량경영을 통해 비용(費用)을 절감(節減)하고 제품의 고부가가치화(高附加價値化)를 추구하는 동시에 장기적으로는 사업구조 재편성을 목표로 기존의 우위요소를 최대한 활용하면서 새로운 우위요소(優位要素) 창출(創出)을 위해 기업의 전략구상, 조직 및 기업문화면에서의 구조전환을 시도하게 된다. 그러나 기업의 발상(發想), 조직구조(組織構造), 조직문화(組織文化)는 환경변화만큼 신속히 일어나지 않는다. 동일한 환경, 동일한 산업 내에서도 성공하는 기업이 있고 실패하는 기업이 있는 것처럼 환경변화에 대한 정확한 인식(認識)과 성공적인 전략(戰略)의 수립 및 실행은 기업들의 체계적인 노력여하에 따라 다르게 나타난다. (企業)의 구조전환(構造轉換)은 국가경제의 발전방향, 업종의 실태와 전망에 관한 정보에 기반하여 장기계획하(長期計劃下)에 기업의 축적된 경영자원을 활용하는 방향으로 이루어져야 한다. 기업이란 주주(株主), 경영자(經營者), 근로자(勤勞者) 등 이익집단간의 이해관계(利害關係)가 균형을 이루면서 발전해 나가는 조직이라는 새로운 인식(認識)에 기반하여 기업은 합리적 노사관계의 정착에 노력하고 정부(政府)는 경쟁(競爭)을 통한 기업체질 강화라는 기본방침하(基本方針下)에 재래산업(在來産業)의 전환비용(轉換費用)을 줄이고 신규사업(新規事業)의 창출(創出)을 뒷받침하는 제도개선(制度改善)을 해 나가야 한다.

Nursing of today has as one of its objectives the solving of problems related to human needs arising from the demands of a rapidly changing society. This nursing objective, I believe, can he attained by the appropriate application of scientific principles in the giving of comprehensive nursing care. Comprehensive nursing care may be defined as nursing care which meets all of the patient's needs. the needs of patients are said to fall into five broad categories: physical needs, psychological needs, environmental needs, socio-economic needs, and teaching needs. Most people who become ill have adjustment problems related to their new situation. Because patient teaching is one of the most important functions of professional nursing, the success of this teaching may be used as a gauge for evaluating comprehensive nursing care. This represents a challenge foe the future. A questionnaire consisting of 67 items was distributed to 200 professional nurses working ill direct patient care at Yonsei University Medical Center in Seoul, Korea. 160 (80,0%) nurses of the total sample returned completed questionnaires 81 (50.6%) nurses were graduates of 3 fear diploma courser 79 (49.4%) nurses were graduates of 4 year collegiate nursing schools in Korea 141 (88,1%) nurses had under 5 years of clinical experience in a medical center, while 19 (11.9%) nurses had more than 5years of clinical experience. Three hypotheses were tested: 1. “Nurses had high levels of concept and knowledge toward patient teaching”-This was demonstrated by the use of a statistical method, the mean average. 2. “Nurses graduating from collegiate programs and diploma school programs of nursing show differences in concepts and knowledge toward patient teaching”-This was demonstrated by a statistical method, the mean average, although the results showed little difference between the two groups. 3. “Nurses having different amounts of clinical experience showed differences in concepts and knowledge toward patient teaching”-This was demonstrated by the use of a statistical method, the mean average. 2. “Nurses graduating from collegiate programs and diploma school programs of nursing show differences in concepts and knowledge toward patient teaching”-This was demonstrated by a statistical method, the mean average, although the results showed little difference between the two groups. 3. “Nurses having different amounts of clinical experience showed differences in concepts and knowledge toward patient teaching”-This was demonstrated by the use of the T-test. Conclusions of this study are as follow: Before attempting the explanation, of the results, the questionnaire will he explained. The questionnaire contained 67 questions divided into 9 sections. These sections were: concept, content, time, prior preparation, method, purpose, condition, evaluation, and recommendations for patient teaching. 1. The nurse's concept of patient teaching: Most of the nurses had high levels of concepts and knowledge toward patient teaching. Though nursing service was task-centered at the turn of the century, the emphasis today is put on patient-centered nursing. But we find some of the nurses (39.4%) still are task-centered. After, patient teaching, only a few of the nurses (14.4%) checked this as “normal teaching.”It seems therefore that patient teaching is often done unconsciously. Accordingly it would he desirable to have correct concepts and knowledge of teaching taught in schools of nursing. 2. Contents of patient teaching: Most nurses (97.5%) had good information about content of patient teaching. They teach their patients during admission about their diseases, tests, treatments, and before discharge give nurses instruction about simple nursing care, personal hygiene, special diets, rest and sleep, elimination etc. 3. Time of patient teaching: Teaching can be accomplished even if there is no time set aside specifically for it. -a large part of the nurse's teaching can be done while she is giving nursing care. If she believes she has to wait for time free from other activities, she may miss many teaching opportunities. But generally proper time for patient teaching is in the midmorning or midafternoon since one and a half or two hours required. Nurses meet their patients in all stages of health: often tile patient is in a condition in which learning is impossible-pain, mental confusion, debilitation, loss of sensory perception, fear and anxiety-any of these conditions may preclude the possibility of successful teaching. 4. Prior preparation for patient teaching: The teaching aids, nurses use are charts (53.1%), periodicals (23.8%), and books (7.0%) Some of the respondents (28.1%) reported that they had had good preparation for the teaching which they were doing, others (27.5%) reported adequate preparation, and others (43.8%) reported that their preparation for teaching was inadequate. If nurses have advance preparation for normal teaching and are aware of their objectives in teaching patients, they can do effective teaching. 5. Method of patient teaching: The methods of individual patient teaching, the nurses in this study used, were conversation (55.6%) and individual discussion (19.2%) . And the methods of group patient teaching they used were demonstration (42.3%) and lecture (26.2%) They should also he prepared to use pamphlet and simple audio-visual aids for their teaching. 6. Purposes of patient teaching: The purposes of patient teaching is to help the patient recover completely, but the majority of the respondents (40.6%) don't know this. So it is necessary for them to understand correctly the purpose of patient teaching and nursing care. 7. Condition of patient teaching: The majority of respondents (75.0%) reported there were some troubles in teaching uncooperative patients. It would seem that the nurse's leaching would be improved if, in her preparation, she was given a better understanding of the patient and communication skills. The majority of respondents in the total group, felt teaching is their responsibility and they should teach their patient's family as well as the patient.
