In this paper, to design a basic data science practice curriculum as a liberal arts subject for non-majors, we proposed an educational method using an Excel(spreadsheet) data analysis tool. Tools for data collection, data processing, and data analysis include Excel, R, Python, and Structured Query Language (SQL). When it comes to practicing data science, R, Python and SQL need to understand programming languages and data structures together. On the other hand, the Excel tool is a data analysis tool familiar to the general public, and it does not have the burden of learning a programming language. And if you practice basic data science practice with Excel, you have the advantage of being able to concentrate on acquiring data science content. In this paper, a basic data science practice curriculum for one semester and weekly Excel practice contents were proposed. And, to demonstrate the substance of the educational content, examples of Linear Regression Analysis were presented using Excel data analysis tools.

Universities should provide experiential learning in subject and non-course subjects so that students can graduate with job competency related to their major and the experiential learning includes capstone design implemented on campus and field training conducted by companies. In particular, the decrease in industry participation in short-term (4 weeks) and mid-term field training (8 weeks) due to the implementation of standard field training introduced from the second half of 2021 is making it more difficult for students to gain practical experience. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose an industry-participatory capstone design & field practice linkage model that combines capstone design and professional practice to solve the technical difficulties of companies. Participating students find solutions to corporate difficulties in the capstone design process and produce prototypes for solutions during the field practice period, focusing on the case of the department of electronic engineering at Gyeongbuk Y University. We believe that it is one of the good models of industry-university cooperation education in which universities and industries win-win.

The purpose of this study was to examine the basic academic achievement of technical high school students, their learning capability about major, their adaptability to school instruction and whether those factors of them was linked to their career in an effort to suggest workable reform measures. Technical high school seniors to grasp their basic learning capabilities and their opinions on the curricula. The findings of the study were as follows: First, the civil engineering students at technical high school weren't fully able to understand what they learned because of their poor basic achievement. They should take all the required courses to fix their academic deficiencies in the first year of high school, and client-centered additional education should be provided about particular subjects, such as mathematics, which they should learn to study their major. Second, many of the students chose technical high school through the advice of parents or since they weren't able to go onto academic high school. So they entered technical high school without knowing well about their major, and vocational education wasn't properly publicized. As students make a critical career decision in middle school, the government should build permanent pavilions for vocational-education exhibition where interested students can acquire information and explore their career without any restraints. Current fragrant vocational education that is based on experiential learning should be avoided. Third, the government substituted regular classroom teaching for field practice, and that resulted in providing just uniform instruction, destroying learning atmosphere and eventually holding teachers back from offering quality education. To remedy the situation, two different sorts of classes should be prepared. One type of classes are for college- bound students, and the others are for job-seeking students. College- bound students should receive education about humanities to improve their academic deficiencies, and job-seeking seniors should be allowed to take field-practice courses at authorized companies in the second semester. It's advisable personally and socially to help ensure their successful and immediate social adjustment.

As animation industry continues to evolve in China, the demand for excellent manpower is on the increase. However, there is a difficulty in cultivating practical talents because many colleges and universities in China do not have the systematized animation education. This study compares the curriculum for animation major in Korea and China in order to find out the major problems and the improvement plans of animation education in China. It was shown that the curriculum in China mainly consisted of the subjects to learn technical skills and lacked the subjects to enhance students' creativity. Especially, universities in China did not offer the practice environment in which students apply and utilize what they learned. As a result, students had less opportunity to experience creative process of making animation. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to make the balanced basic curriculum, link the practice courses with the creativity courses, develop the specialized learning methods and provide the training opportunities through industry-university cooperation. The results of this study suggest that good quality animation education is an important element for universities and animation industry to continue to prosper together.

Purpose: Supportive interventions to improve breastfeeding practice are needed in nursing. This study investigated the effects of pectoralis major myofascial release massage (MRM) on breast pain and engorgement among breastfeeding mothers and on breast milk intake and sleep patterns among newborns. Methods: Breastfeeding mothers who had delivered between 37 and 43 weeks and had 7-to 14-day-old newborns were recruited from a postpartum care center in Gunpo, Korea. Participants were randomized to the MRM or control group. The outcome variables were breast pain and breast engorgement among breastfeeding mothers and breast milk intake and sleep time among newborns. The experimental treatment involved applying MRM to separate the pectoralis major muscle and the underlying breast tissue in the chest. After delivery, the first MRM session (MRM I) was provided by a breast specialist nurse, and the second (MRM II) was administered 48 hours after MRM I. Results: Following MRM, breast pain (MRM I: t=-5.38, p<.001; MRM II: t=-10.05, p<.001), breast engorgement (MRM I: right, t=-1.68, p =.100; left, t=-2.13, p=.037 and MRM II: right, t=-4.50, p<.001; left, t=-3.74, p<.001), and newborn breast milk intake (MRM I: t=3.10, p=.003; MRM II: t=3.09, p=.003) differed significantly between the groups. Conclusion: MRM effectively reduced breast engorgement and breast pain in breastfeeding mothers, reducing the need for formula supplementation, and increasing newborns' breast milk intake. Therefore, MRM can be utilized as an effective nursing intervention to alleviate discomfort during breastfeeding and to improve the rate of breastfeeding practice (clinical trial number: KCT0002436).

I concluded as follows after analyzing the problem of the curriculum in the Department of Optical Science at a college of professional education for the purpose of training desireable opticians. The years required for competing a course of study at the Department of Optical Science at a college of professonal education have to be extended from the present two school years to three years for the short run and have to be extended to four years for the long run. The distribution ratio of subjects in the slate examination should be readjusted and the field of contect lens. Also the system of the slate examination should strengthen by adding practical processing test with the present selective written examination. The Curriculum of department of Optical Science curriculum at a college of professional education should be reorganized reinforce experiment and practice, namely, the subject for experiment and practice, such as Making of specific glasses and Test method of phorpter etc, should be reinforced. The knowledge for goods should be included in clinical training and it is reasonable to constitute the theory vs the practice in the ratio of five to five. The number of the Department of Optical Science should be increased two or more for per forty students and it is desirabled that only the professors who major optical Science or opthalmic medical science, or have Optician Licence should give lecture. The experiment a practice should be enlarged and it is necessary to secure or to adopt practice hours, practice site, machinery and parts, practice assistant and etc. It is reasonable that clinical training include the knowledge of goods, business practice and etc. and that a practice examiner has the qualification as an optician who has education background higher that the college of professional education.
