This study was conducted to examine the effects of creativity on self-directed learning ability of nursing students and to verify the mediating effects of professors' autonomy support and instructor-student interaction in the process. A survey was done on 304 nursing students attending S university located in Kwangju. The analysis on mediating effect was processed through SPSS Process Macro 4 and Bootstrapping. The results of the study showed that the creativity, professors' autonomy support and instructor-student interaction had a significant positive effect on self-directed learning ability among nursing students. The professors' autonomy support and the instructor-student interaction had significant mediating effects on the relationship between creativity and self-directed learning ability. Based on such a result, the implications and limitations of this study were presented and the educational direction for improving self-directed learning ability of nursing students was discussed.

The purpose of this study was to analyze on the convergence for knowledge fusion in the filed of the engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences. For the study, the related literatures were reviewed focusing on the convergence in the basis of the inter-disciplinary. In addition, interviews with 5 professors in the field of the engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences were analyzed. The keys of analysis were perspective of academic disciplines. The findings of this study were as follows; most of professors recognized the inter-disciplinary of engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences. But, there were some barriers engineering of professors in inter-disciplinary.

The university library is supposed to build its collection in an organized and controlled manner to achieve its one goals for information services, and the book selection is an essential element of librarianship to support the university process of research and education effectively. This study focuses on the faculty influence on the book selection process of the university library. the researcher concludes that too much hegemony in the hands of professors is not appropriate and at least part of it should be handed over to librarians.

The purposes of this article are to analyze the conditions of using instructional strategies and using gender sensitive instructional strategies at engineering classes of K University. Qualitative analysis methods were adapted. To achieve the purposes, 35 hours of engineering classes from 11 professors from 9th to 20th of November 2009 were videotaped and analyzed. The research findings were discussed by the checklists for general and gender sensitive the instructional strategies which were recommended for the managing the better classes. Students are influenced by professors not only knowledge and skills but also values and attitudes. Professors who take gender sensitive instructional strategies are expected to give good influence the women students.

The purpose of this research are (1) determining the basic concepts of clothing field which are included in the middle and high school home economics education curriculum ; (2) comparing the extent of need to those three groups; (3) classifying the basic concepts into units; (4) ana-lyzing the extent of need by units and providing basic data for curriculum revision. The data collecting methods of this research is questionair and the contents of this are the same. The subjects are 1085 students, 402 teachers and 80 professors. The data was analyzed by one-way ANOVA, scheffe test and factor analysis. The results were as follows: (1) 43 basic concepts were determined. (2) While the extent of need in the teachers and professors was high, that of students was me-dium or lower than the other two groups. (3)The extent of need to 40 concepts among three groups were significantly different. (4)According to the results from the factor analysis 7 units were formed. (5)‘Accurate dressing’was the most needed thing among three groups.

This paper examines the effects of major funding projects for graduate education in Korea, specifically the BK21 and the WCU programs, on the research productivity of professors and young researchers. We apply the standard DID method, which compares the increase in research outputs as measured by papers per year between groups before and during the project period. The DID estimates show that the effects are quite different for different fields, but they mostly indicate that the BK21 project is more effective in terms of the research productivity of the participating professors, especially those who study science and engineering areas. With regard to the productivity of graduate students, the results show that there was an increase in the research productivity of locally educated Korean doctoral degree holders after the graduate funding programs, mainly in natural science and engineering fields.

This research surveyed how much the professors ill tile university of education and primary school teachers understand the 6th National primary science Curriculum. Items to check tile degree of purpose description, reflection of basic policy, appropriateness of content, its organization, teaching method and evaluation, its influence on textbook and putting in practice of themselves were evaluated neutral or positive by most of them. But the opinion of responders were divided into tile two extremes, positive or negative, ell tile possibility of carrying out various inquiry activities and participation in science activities of students. Both of professors and teachers indicated that tile explanatory book of curriculum and annotated teachers' edition are the principal sources of information about curriculum. And the teachers stated that the shortage of information and materials are the principal factors to obstruct the change of lessons according to new curriculum.

This paper discusses an important dimension of the globalization of science by investigating the lived experiences of nineteen expatriate scientists in six institutions in South Korea. Although much has been written on the globalization and science, few works have dealt with scientific experts? migration across national borders in contemporary contexts. In this regard, the lives of foreign science professors in Korea offer an interesting case, as they illustrate how the ideas of global science both clash with and appropriate Korea?s local practices and discourses. I argue that the globality of science is a main factor that fosters the continued Korean stay of many foreign scientists, who manage and appropriate what is entailed in this globality, namely, Korea?s perceived status as a peripheral country in the dynamics between "center" and "periphery." This includes several strategies and unintended situations differing according to each foreign scientist?s ethnic origins, professional experiences, and institutional circumstances, which lead them to make sense of their continued stay in Korea.

As a case study, we analyzed the professor's teaching professionalism in college of science-engineering based on pedagogical content knowledge. Two professors from the college of science-engineering located in Chungcheongbuk-do participated in this study. After collecting their syllabi, we observed their classes and conducted semi-structured interview before and after the classes. Analysis were conducted on their syllabi, taped videos, field notes and transcripts of the interview. As a result, both professors' orientation to teaching was not only related to learning subject matter knowledge, but also developing job competencies or communication skills. Their orientations were transformed according to the educational situation. After establishing the final learning goals, the professors organized weekly plan by listing the topics. However, they were unaware that the goals of each topic should be presented in detail in the class. Also, one of them presented a lack of understanding of the students' prior knowledge and showed low understanding of what aspects of the topics make students difficult to learn. In addition, the two professors applied various teaching strategies such as giving examples, questioning, and problem solving, but the degree of students' participation was not enough in the process of teaching. In the aspect of assessment, the professors had low understanding in students' achievement or feedback. Based on the results of the analysis, this study proposed methods and strategies for improving the teaching professionalism of science-engineering professors.
