한국의 농촌 지도사업은 농민들이 주곡인 쌀의 자급과 푸른 채소의 주년 공급을 달성할 수 있도록 도왔을 뿐 아니라 4-H 클럽 활동의 지도를 통한 농촌 청소년의 지도와 영농후계세대의 육성 등에도 기여하여 왔다. 1997년 정부는 민주화 지방화의 미명 하에 농촌 지도 교육자의 신분을 지방직으로 전환시켰다. 이러한 지방직 전환은 다양한 문제들, 예컨대 1) 농촌 지도 교육자의 사기와 인원수를 줄여 농촌 지도의 사회교육적 기능을 저하시켰고, 2) 중앙과 지방 농촌 진흥기관의 연계를 약화시켰으며, 3) 농촌지도 교육자의 현직 교육 기회를 축소시켰으며, 또한, 4) 농업 연구와 농촌지도의 연계를 약화시키는 등의 부작용을 야기 시켰다. 흔히 농촌지도 공무원으로 부르는 농촌지도 교육자들은 농업 기술의 전파 보급을 위한 전문직이며 미국 등 선진국에서는 국가가 인정하는 지도 교육자 (extension educator)로 전문직업 능력의 향상을 위한 다양한 노력을 경주하고 있다. 국가 목표인 식량의 지속적 생산, 국가의 균형 발전과 환경 보전은 물론 점증하는 농민들의 요구에 부응하기 위해서 농촌지도 교육자들의 사기를 앙양시키는 것은 중요한 과제이다. 안전하고 질 높은 음식의 지속적 공급을 위해서는 농업 생산자들에게 혁신 농업 기술의 전파 보급이 절대적으로 중요하기 때문에 더 이상 농촌지도사업이 훼손되는 것을 방치해서는 안 될 것이다. 농촌지도 사업의 지속적 발전을 위한 국내의 연구는 물론 아시아 태평양 지역 국가들의 농촌과 국가 발전을 위한 협동적 노력도 필요할 것이다.

There are many opportunities for Agricultural Technology Centers and for local communities to benefit from the computer and internet and compete in the information age. However, many rural communities appeared to lack human and financial resources required to enable access to the computer and internet. A case of implementation process of establishing agricultural information system at Asan Agricultural Technology Center during the last 10 years were presented. Extension educators took leadership role in facilitating the educational needs of farmers in terms of related resources for the computer and internet extension. To better prepare communities for the information age, community access was critical for promoting the technology and improving proficiency of local community members in its use, extension educators need to take leadership role in assessing community ability to provide internet access points for people without computers. Extension educators at city/county Agricultural Technology Centers may initiate to attract people with internet needs. computer resources, technological experience, and know-how for setting up internet access points in community locations.

All data processing was analyzed by applying version 26.0 of IBM SPSS statistical package program. The main contents of the questionnaire included reasons for using GMC, inconveniences, overall level of medical care, satisfaction, intention to revisit, the necessity of GMC's complex ward extension project, and GMC consisted of 8 questionnaires, including the desired service for the extension of the complex ward. Results: As for the necessity of the GMC complex ward extension project, 95.9% of residents said they wanted the complex ward extension project, 2.3% said it was not necessary, and the remaining 1.8% had other opinions. Conclusions: GMC complex ward extension project is necessary.

The multiculturalism orientation was preferred most highly at the private area such as dietary-life culture. Second, ANOVA analysis showed that the positive effectiveness on the language policy are evaluated most highly by the respondent having assimilation preference orientation. And the positive effectiveness on dietary-life culture policy are evaluated most highly by the respondent having multiculturalism orientation. Third, positive effectiveness level of the policy estimated by the resident was lower than it of multicultural couple significantly. In conclusion, based on results of this study, it can be seen as on that point preference orientation of integration policy for the women, the domain specificity is present in the attitude of the multicultural couple and resident. Therefore it suspect that integration policy for the women should be considered differently according to life sphere.

It is necessary to realize in advance the lessons and knowhow about how to live, which humankind have developed, through learning to decrease the number of trial and error in our first trip to life. The big problem that present mathematical education is faced with is just only to place much importance on doing microscopic research ignoring macroscopic perspective, which results in the ineffectiveness of mathematics for contributing to life. The purpose of present study is to examine the way of living, classify methods of gaining an insight into life using macroscopic perspective, and develop a life model which can suggest a way of gaining an insight into life from external perspective.

Objectives: Although dental hygienists have a high employment rate as professional workers, turnover and retirement rates are very high. This study analyzed the factors related to work life of dental hygienists to prepare an alternative for life extension. Methods: From August 1 to December 31, 2019, 224 dental hygienists and 446 dental hygiene students were examined. Results: The expected working years for dental hygienists were 10-14 years (25.4%) and over 31 years (22.4%) for dental hygiene students. The recognized working years for dental hygienists were 10-14 years (22.4%) and 20-24 years (26.0%) for dental hygiene students. Work values of dental hygienists and dental hygiene students averaged 3.85 and 3.86, respectively. Furthermore, the average motive for selecting a major in dental hygienists was 3.08 points and in dental hygiene students, 3.24 points. The average career identity of dental hygienists and dental hygiene students were 2.82 and 2.91 points, respectively. Conclusions: The perception difference between dental hygienists and dental hygiene students was compared, and the factors that could play a positive role in prolonging life were identified. Based on this study, further systematic comparative studies and preparation of alternatives for life extension are required.

An environmental problem is the important issue of mankind. It should be treated main discourse in our period. There are many assertions related to environment but they are not to be clearly classified because of miscellaneous paradigm. It is possible to classify into two category on the basis of human attitude toward nature and environmental problem. One of them is anthropocentrism and the other is ecocentrism. This classification is helpful to understand various environmental discourses. Owing to different paradigm approach, anthropocentrism and ecocentrism have different concept for environmental problem. Anthropocentrism is powerful to the real life in behalf of economic rationalism. But ecocentrism is important for the only settlement of environmental problem in ecocentric perspectives. Therefore a new scheme for environmental problem solving is necessary through combining the merits of anthropocentrism and ecocentrism.
