The effects of mentoring education bring positive effects such as mentees' capacity building, knowledge improvement and positive attitude. The major difficulties that nursing college students experience in clinical practice are low adaptability, lack of confidence, etc. Therefore, this study developed mentoring education program to improve the problem-solving ability, learning attitude, and confidence in nursing skill before clinical practice for nursing college students and evaluated their effectiveness. In order to develop the program, a group of experts consisting of professors and clinical nurses selected 11 topics after discussing nursing skills and knowledge, which were most required in clinical practice. The program involved 14 mentors who operated practice, counseling, video clips, and contextual discussions for two days to a group of 9 to 10 people. Nursing college students who received the mentoring education program showed a significant increase in learning attitude and confidence in performance of nursing skills, but there was no statistically significant difference in problem-solving ability. This study is meaningful in that it has improved the educational effect by using mentoring methods, away from formal in-school practice education. In the future, it will be necessary to evaluate whether the mentoring education program affect the problem-solving ability of nursing students by applying it before, during, and after clinical practice rather than in a short period.

Learning at the elbow of scientist is a well-known educational approach to improve students' understanding of science and scientific practice. This study, in the perspective of legitimate peripheral participation in a community of practice, explores how students' scientific practice and perception could be shifted through R&E program with the development of participation. Data from participant observation for 18 months and in-depth interviews were analyzed based on constant comparative method to extract common characteristics of students' participation and major shifts in their scientific practices and perceptions. Students' development of participation was categorized into three stages: legitimate, peripheral, and full participation. In the stage of peripheral participation, students perceived themselves as mere students and showed passive engagement. They just followed the directions of researchers and didn't know what they should be doing. But through continuous participation, students showed enhanced engagement like voluntary article reading, role assignments, and establishing norms in a community of practice with the reference of scientists'. In this stage of transitional participation, students also showed a deepened perception on everyday life of scientist and the community of scientist. And finally in the stage of full participation, students showed responsibility and ownership on research and continuous efforts to refine their research. They recognized themselves as beginning scientists. With these findings, this paper highlighted the dynamic processes of students' development of scientific practices and identity through R&E participation. It also suggests implications for research programs for education, especially for students who have already articulated a science-related career but still have only foggy notions about science.

This study is a descriptive research study to confirmed the effects of academic self-efficacy and clinical practice satisfaction on nursing professionalism of adult learner nursing students. Data were collected from October 1, 2022 to January 31, 2023, targeting 120 adult learners and nursing students attending 5 universities located in C province. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were performed using the SPSS 26.0 program. Results of this study Satisfaction with clinical practice and academic self-efficacy (r=.773, p<.01), Satisfaction with clinical practice and nursing professionalism (r=7.87, p<.01), Academic self-efficacy and nursing professionalism (r=8.34, p<.01), there was a positive correlation with each other. As a result of regression analysis, college life satisfaction, practical peer relationship, major satisfaction, clinical practice satisfaction, and academic self-efficacy were confirmed as factors influencing nursing professionalism (F=57.86, p<.001). The explanatory power was 75.5%. In order to improve the nursing professionalism of adult learner nursing students, an institutional educational strategy will be needed to develop interventions that can increase academic self-efficacy and clinical practice satisfaction.

The Practice of Landscape Urbanism has been criticized on two aspects; Landscape Urbanism does not yet provide differentiated forms of planning and design neither able to fill the gap between theory and practice. In response to these criticisms, Landscape Urbanists have tried to provide additional cases that can exemplify achievements of Landscape Urbanism in practice. There has been another type of effort to suggest distinct planning and design strategies of Landscape Urbanism from theoretical texts. However, these approaches overlooked the fact that professional practice actually gave huge influence on the theoretical framework of Landscape Urbanism. Based on this observation, the study examined the development process of Landscape Urbanism by verifying the correlation between its practice and theory. Through an extensive literature review, the study suggested horizontality, infrastructure, process, ecology, media, hybrid, site, and scale as eight major concepts of Landscape Urbanism. Afterwards, the study classified 51 projects cited in major essays and articles of Landscape Urbanism into four categories: Archetypal projects, precedent projects, exemplary projects, and progressive projects. The correlation between strategies of the selected projects and main theoretical concepts was analyzed. The study found out that the early stage of the theory was focused on defining and explaining the new design and planning approaches of contemporary design projects related with landscape. However, these days, Landscape Urbanism became a more productive in providing diverse types of practice sharing the direction and vision proposed by the theory. Various projects influenced in constructing theoretical structure of Landscape Urbanism as well as proved that the suggestions of Landscape Urbanism could be effective to reorganize contemporary cites in the form of design and planning strategies. The observation of this study can contribute to provide proper answers to the criticism on practice of Landscape Urbanism and be helpful in understanding the limits and unrealized potentials of Landscape Urbanism as a practical theory.

In this paper, we propose a novel framework for technology policy aimed both for the generation and diffusion of new technologies. Based upon critical examination of related theories and practice of technology policy, we identify two major problems in current technology generation policy, and the segregated approach to technology diffusion policy from technology generation policy. To remedy these problems, we argue that two goals of technology policy of generation and diffusion should be integrated and synchronized via unified policy framework, and propose the conceptual configuration for policy implementation which can serve the desired objective.

The following lessons have been learned from the application of reliability methods in the practice of geotechnical engineering: 1. Establishing Goals Is Important; 2. Mitigating Consequences Can Be Effective; 3. Performance Depends on Systems; 4. Physical Factors Are Important in Statistical Models; 5. Too Much and Too Little Conservatism Are Both Problems; 6. Value of Information Depends on Decision Making; and 7. Effective Communication Is Essential. While the potential for application of reliability methods in the future is unlimited, there are major needs related to each of these lessons that will have to be addressed in order to realize this potential.

This paper deals with the methods as well as the problems associated with automatic extraction indexing and assignment indexing, expert systems for indexing, and major approaches currently used to index the Internet resources. It also briefly reviews basic methods for establishing hypertext/hypermedia links automatically. The methods used in much of text processing today are not particularly new. Most of the them were used, perhaps in a more rudimentary form, 30 or more years ago by Luhn and many other investigators. Better results can be achieved today because much greater bodies of electronic text are now avaliable and the power of present-day computers allows the processing of such text with reasonable efficiency.

The writer reviewed the cutting method of webbing practiced in major countries. Cutting rhythm Bar cutting to Point Cutting) should be chosen to approach as straight as possible, therefore the knot cuttings or the side cuttings should be 1, if possile. According to calculation, an arbitrary solution to a mixed cutting was undertaken, while another cutting method, of calculation 5 and 6, was taken by a prepared table. In no case, it was consequently possible to use an unmixed cutting rhythm. Sometimes, the cutting calculated from approximate value differs from desired result, tut this defference should not be taken too significant in practice.
