  • In this paper, we examine the project-based educational practice that is co-developing a solution to the local food inventory management system. This project is aimed at the practical business of IT distribution in small and medium industries, and is linked with the project course on undergraduate students of IT division. For the practical project of the IT distribution in small and medium industries, an employee in charge of the project participates as a mentor such that he presents the project subject and the students develop the system for the subject. This system emerges from existing theory and the necessity for a term project, and this course leads students to learn practical knowledge through discussion with the employee in charge. Through this course, the latest technology is shared mutually, and students have the opportunity to understand a domain of the IT distribution business. As students experience how to understand and solve cost, quality and delivery time for the project by themselves, they build confidence. Also, the company can save on costs for the development of prototypes, while creating an opportunity for students to experience working with seasoned staff.

  • Background Closed-suction drains are widely used in expander-based breast reconstruction. These drains are typically removed using a volume-based criterion. The drainage volume affects the hospital stay length and the recovery time. However, few studies have analyzed the factors that influence drainage volume after expander-based breast reconstruction. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data regarding daily drainage from patients who underwent expander-based breast reconstruction between April 2014 and January 2018 (159 patients, 176 expanders). Patient and operative factors were analyzed regarding their influence on total drainage volume and drain placement duration using univariate and multivariate analyses and analysis of variance. Results The mean total drainage volume was 1,210.77±611.44 mL. Univariate analysis showed correlations between total drainage volume and age (B=19.825, P<0.001), body weight (B=17.758, P<0.001), body mass index (B=51.817, P<0.001), and specimen weight (B=1.590, P<0.001). Diabetes history (P<0.001), expander type (P<0.001), and the surgical instrument used (P<0.001) also strongly influenced total drainage. The acellular dermal matrix type used did not affect total drainage (P=0.626). In the multivariate analysis, age (B=11.907, P=0.004), specimen weight (B=0.927, P<0.001), and expander type (B=593.728, P<0.001) were significant predictors of total drainage. Conclusions Our findings suggest that the total drainage and the duration of drain placement needed after expander-based breast reconstruction can be predicted using preoperative and intraoperative data. Patient age, specimen weight, and expander type are important predictors of drainage volume. Older patients, heavier specimens, and use of the Mentor rather than the Allergan expander corresponded to a greater total drainage volume and a longer duration of drain placement.

  • Purpose: This study analysed the intention of medical students career choice, educational programmes, and mentoring and counseling system for career planning at Yonsei medical school in Korea. Methods: The data were collected based on four separate graduation questionnaires at Yonsei medical school in the years of 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. The number of the survey was 130 in 2005, 130 in 2006, 153 in 2007, and that of the latest was 120 in 2008. We analysed the career intention on medical specialties and activities, and perceptions of important factors in choosing medical specialty. Results : The results which can be drawn from this study are these: firstly. students had more intention for choosing clinical medicine as university faculty than any other activities. While male students preferred to major in surgery, neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, urology, otorhinolaryngology, female students in internal medicine, neurology, anesthesiology and pain medicine, diagnostic radiology, laboratory medicine. Secondly, students perceived that the most important factor which can influence on choosing a medical specialty was individual factor such as one's interests and concerns, values, and aptitudes. In stead, they relatively less perceived mentor and role model's effects on choosing a medical specialty compared to those of the United States of America. Third, the career planning at Yonsei medical school was evaluated well, especially educational programmes for career planning such as self assessment programme, elective(specialized) courses, and conversation with a senior programme. Conclusions: Unexpectedly, there are high demands for career planning by medical students. Therefore, we will reorganize systematic devices for career planning such as mentoring and counseling system at medical school.

  • This study focused on accomplishment of successful life development after discharge a child-care facility even though they had a variety of diversity in hard environment on their own past. Furthermore the research analyzed expression progress and detail information of resilience effect on twenty healthy members of society, who lived theirselves for more than 10 years at out of chid-care centers, based on grounded theory methodology participants. As written in the result section of the study, using the paradigm model analysis showed that it was caused by 'Practical planning for the future', 'Organization of positive meaning' and 'Understanding in another's shoe'. The contextual condition appeared as 'Self examination, 'Seeking anchor as ontology' and 'Natural intimacy among family members'. The centralization phenomenon came in 'Living philosophy of internal stabilities'. The intervention condition appeared as 'Rise up through the world' and 'faith all the world'. The action-interaction showed up as 'Strict self-discipline' and 'Growing up own family'. The consequence appeared as 'Making social family' and 'Being a someone's social mentor'. This research shows discussion in depth based on above analyzed result.

  • Conventional ARIA algorithm which is used LUT based-S-Box is fast the processing speed. However, the algorithm is hard to applied to small portable devices. This paper proposes the hardware design of optimized ARIA crypto-processor based on the modified composite field S-Box in order to decrease its hardware area. The Key scheduling in ARIA algorithm, both diffusion and substitution layers are repeatedly used in each round function. In this approach, an advanced key scheduling method is also presented of which two functions are merged into only one function for reducing hardware overhead in scheduling process. The designed ARIA crypto-processor is described in Verilog-HDL, and then a logic synthesis is also performed by using Xilinx ISE 14.7 tool with target the Xilnx FPGA XC3S1500 device. In order to verify the function of the crypto-processor, both logic and timing simulation are also performed by using simulator called ModelSim 10.4a.

  • This study examines the process of internalization and elaboration of the logic of competition in the post-IMF era through the genealogy of the survival program. Post-IMF is based on disaster reality, which reveals a specific emotional structure related to the competition, if the narrative of overcoming the IMF event finds narrative models that can be sufficiently reconciled between communityism and individual success. This study also examines the process of disaster preparedness through survival form and narrative structure embedded in such form. Thus, this study reconstructed the diachronic change to track the change of the survival program and the subsequent narrative change. Relative to the time of the healing-mentor, the survival program seems to be declining, but rather seems to have created a new transition through the logic of self-development contained in the healing-mentoring discourse. this logic leads to be ghettoized hierarchy of preferences. Now, the survival program is to perform fantastic surrogate satisfaction by delegating competition to a narrow self-directed area rather than to a big empathy within the community.

  • Introduction: Training standards for long-haul truck drivers (LHTD) are rapidly evolving in Canada, yet the opinions of the drivers themselves have not been adequately considered. The purpose was to survey LHTD on their work training history and to examine LHTD perceptions of driver training and licensing protocols. Methods: LHTD were recruited across two Western Canadian provinces from seven different truck stops. The sample completed 207 surveys and 67 semi-structured interviews. Results: The average age of the participants was 52.5 ± 11.5 years (range 24-79); 96% were men. Approximately 33% of the LHTD had at least one crash. Those who did not receive formal driver training were significantly more likely to crash than those who had received training. Participants stated that current training standards are inadequate for the industry, particularly for new drivers. According to participants, entry-level curriculums should consist of both classroom and practical training, as well as on-road observation with a senior mentor. LHTD reported that many new drivers are not equipped to drive in various contexts and settings (e.g., mountains, slippery roads). Conclusions: LHTD are not confident in the current training guidelines for novice truck drivers. Revisions to the training curriculum and standardization across Canada should be considered. Practical Application: A federal mandatory entry-level training program is needed in Canada to ensure that all new LHTD ascertain the necessary skills to drive safely. Such a program requires government involvement and input from LHTD to facilitate appropriate licensure and consistent training for all drivers.

  • This study analyzed the mediating effect of turnover intention between the empowerment and the job satisfaction of professionals in the welfare centers for the handicapped. A survey of professionals working in Deajeon and Chungnam areas was conducted and the 352 data were analyzed. The analysis results are as follows : 1) professionals' empowerment had a positive effect on the job satisfaction. 2) the mediating effect of the turnover intention was proved between the both variables. Based on the research findings, it is necessary to provide proper authority for professionals and to raise the wage level for improving their empowerment quality. For reducing professionals' turnover intention, we need to ease the burden of work and to offer the mentor program, the club activities and the rest support service for the sake of managing emotional labor.

  • In order to analyze the educational effect of learning mentoring conducted for 4 weeks by the Korea Educational Broadcasting System(EBS) for elementary school students, the changes in self-directed learning skills and emotional stability were analyzed through pre-test and post-test for 27 students who participated in the EBS learning mentoring. As a result, it was found that students' self-directed learning ability and emotional stability were both improved. In addition, the students showed high satisfaction with the mentor who guided their learning and taught them. Therefore, in order to reduce the learning gap of underprivileged students in the distance learning situation, the EBS learning mentoring project should be continuously promoted, and the mentoring period and the number of students and teachers participating in mentoring should be significantly increased.
