As for the ducation for collection development, the changes the course titles dealing with collection development were surveyed, and the contents of the courses provided by the Departments of Library and Information Science were analyzed. It was found out that though the course titles have been changed from selection of materials collection development, the contents showed their emphases on such selection-oriented topics as selection tools and acquisitions. It is concluded that as far as the contents are concerned, most of the important components for collection development have been taught. Based on the findings, a few suggestions including that there should be efforts to narrow the gap between the theories taught at library schools and the practices performed by librarians are recommended.

  • Exposed to a great many media and technology resources, EFL students seem to lack the motivations for learning on the basis of the conventional teaching methods. For this reason, in teaching English, finding teaching methods and materials appropriate to make the learning experiences for EFL students more engaging and interesting has become more challenging than ever. This is the main reason why English language teachers always keep searching for more motivating teaching sources. Although most of course books have CD's and DVD enclosed, these turn out to be less authentic and not very engaging for students. In order to bring diversity into the classroom, many teachers use films in EFL teaching. Films are usually seen as a media that attracts students' attention and tend to present language in a more natural (interactive) way as well. What is more important is that films offer a visual context aids which help students understand and improve their reading skills. This paper analyzes the effects of using films in the EFL classroom. Moreover, It shows that films as a teaching resource play a very effective role in developing students reading and communication skill. Last but not least, mobile phones are used as a main supplementary device in that either group is recommended to watch a movie anytime and anywhere.

  • Collaborative filtering is a methodology to recommend websites by obtaining data and opinions from the other users with similar tastes. During the past few years, this method has been used in various fields such as books, food, and movies in e-commerce systems. This study addresses the computation of similarity between users to determine items to be recommended in collaborative filtering systems. Previous studies measured similarity between users by treating each user's ratings independently without considering the distribution of the user's ratings. In contrast, this study measures similarity by utilizing position and rank information of each rating in the range of the user's ratings. The result of the experiments on the real datasets demonstrated that the proposed method improves the mean absolute error significantly, compared to the previous methods, especially when the predetermined range of ratings is large.

  • This paper deals with a general review of Mieko S. Han, who made a significant contribution to the studies of Korean phonetics during the 1960' s and early 1970' s. As both a single and joint author, Dr. Han published important papers in both quantity and quality, which have been cited among Korean phoneticians until today. Before Dr. M. Han' s work, professor of USC in the department of East Asian Languages & Cultures, there were only a few phonetics-related publications in Korea, most of which are papers or books based on non-experimental traditional approach. It is known that there was coexistence between traditionalism and structuralism in the field of Korean linguistics. It was, however, fortunate that we had two important phoneticians (M. Han and Chin-W Kim) abroad at that time. Mieko Han' s concern was to investigate experimental characteristics of the system of Korean vowels and consonants using a Spectrograph, which was the single most important tool for analysing phonetic data at that time. Dr. Han conducted her experimental studies on Korean phonetics, mostly funded by the Office of Naval Research, in terms of duration, fundamental frequency, Voice Onset Time (VOT), intensity, and so on. This paper aims to re-appreciate Dr. Han's specific contribution to the study of Korean phonetics since she played an important role as a pioneer of early Korean phonetics. Further, it is highly recommended that Dr. Han's works can be extremely useful for a graduate student, who seriously would like to specialize in Korean phonetics in the first step.

  • Three important books in the oriental medicine are Huangjenaekyung (medical book), Sanghanron (pharmacological book) and Shinnongbonchokyung (herbal book). Chang, joong-kyung who is the writer of Sanghanron would be recommended as a saint physician and his book, Sanghanron is granted for a best book in this field by Chinese people. Also, Japanese physicians would estimate Sanghanron as the most magnificent book ever written by a human being. Sanghanron contains a lot of confirmations (證) of diseases, their progressing courses and exact therapeutic ways. Therefore modern physicians and pharmacists who are interested in the oriental medicine might study and practice more scientific approach of therapy for patients. The aim of this bibliographical study on Sanghanron is to explain systematically theories of this book and harmonize them with the modern medicinal study: In this study we have acquired three main results, the first is that we could get the coincidence between western & oriental way on the five therapeutic principles-sweating, vomiting, harmonizing, excreting and bleeding : the second, notice the exclusion of the Five Element Theory(the fundamental one in oriental medicine) and the third, found out the possibility of the immunological and neuroscientific explanation for pharmacological application to the oriental medicine.

  • This is a group pretest-posttest design study that aim to evaluate the effect of self-reflection promotion program of nursing students. The subjects of this study were 42 first-year nursing students. The data was collected from October 5 to November 2, 2020. A questionnaire was used to measure self-reflection and self-efficacy. The self-reflection promotion program was operated for a total of 8 hours in 4 sessions over 4 weeks. Online lectures were conducted using books, movies, and art recommended by expert. The subjects could take lectures using their smartphones, laptops, desktops, and tablet PC. As a result of the study, self-reflection was significantly improved after intervention than before intervention (t=-2.594, p=.013). In the sub-items, self-exploration and self-understanding were statistically significantly improved (t=-2.527, p=.015; t=-2.471, p=.018). However, other-exploration and other-understanding were not statistically significant (t=-1.226, p=.227; t=-.758, p=.453). The self-efficacy of the subjects was not statistically significant (t=-.170, p=.866). In future research, it will be necessary to develop and verify specific teaching and learning methods utilizing various contents that can improve self-reflection for nursing students.

  • The purpose of this paper is to examine empirically how to balance advertising expenditure before and after launch with regard to the direction of word of mouth in the motion picture industry. The vector auto-regression model is applied to assess the dynamic impact of advertising and word of mouth on sales. Empirical data, including advertising, word of mouth, and sales (the number of entries) of 83 movies are used for analysis. The research results show that for a movie having more positive word of mouth in the pre- and post-launch periods, it is worthwhile to spend the advertising budget in the pre-launch period only and to spare it in post-launch period. However, it is worthwhile to spare the advertising budget in the pre-launch period for movies having less positive word of mouth before and after launch, and to concentrate spending in post-launch period instead. Mangers who handle products and services facing shortened lifecycles, such as games, eBooks, and digital music contents, need to check the quality of pre-launch word of mouth for their advertising budget decisions in the pre- and post-launch periods and spend more of the advertising budget in the post- (pre-) launch period if pre-launch word of mouth is negative (positive). For products and services with a shortened lifecycle, it is recommended to spend more of the advertising budget in the post- (pre-) launch period if pre-launch word of mouth is negative (positive).
