본 연구는 노인 학습자를 대상으로 스마트 기기를 활용하여 수학학습 활동을 할 수 있는 수학 앱 구현의 일환으로 진행되었다. 실버 세대와 같이 아직은 스마트 기기에 익숙하지 않은 사람들에게는 학습을 위한 적합한 행동유발의 기능이 무엇보다 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 스마트 기기를 활용한 수학학습의 자료에서 교육의 목적을 달성하면서도 사용자의 편의성을 증진시키기 위하여 노인 학습자의 특성을 고려한 어포던스 설계를 구축하고자 하였다. 이러한 설계 가이드라인 제시를 위하여 시니어 스마트 교육 시스템의 어포던스를 증진시킬 수 있는 인지적, 물리적, 감각적, 어포던스의 특징 및 요소를 제시하였다.

고령화시대를 맞아서 한국은 2008년부터 노인장기요양보험을 실시하면서 노인부양부담을 가족으로부터 국가의 책임으로 인식하기 시작하였다. 데이케어센터(주간보호센터)는 사회적 보살핌을 제공하는 시설 중의 하나로 입소생활시설과는 다른 주간이용시설인데 설립초기 자원부족 및 서비스 질 향상 등의 문제가 지적되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 데이케어센터를 지역을 중심으로 접근하면서 그 발전방향을 논의하였다. 또한 전문가심층면접분석을 통해서 데이케어센터의 차후 비전을 제시하였다. 심층분석 결과로는 데이케어센터에서 제공하는 건강케어 프로그램은 지역사회의 문제 및 특성을 반영하여야 하고, 사용자 중심이어야 하며 지역통합적 방식을 취해야 함이 제시되었다.

This study investigated the casual jacket design preferences of women aged 50s and 60s and suggested a prototype design for functional clothing. All age groups liked the casual jacket with a length between the waist and hip, a convertible collar, and a single-breasted design. Those in their 50s preferred fitted or semi-fitted casual jackets while those in their 60s preferred semi-fitted casual jackets. Although, there were significant differences between the preferred jacket designs and ready-made brand jacket designs, most brand jacket designs were casual, semi-fitted, middle-hip length, single-breasted, and with stand-rolled or convertible collars. The analysis of the sleeve styles in brand jackets showed that consumers needed designs that are more decorative. Fashion designers for senior citizens need to design elderly clothing that is comfortable, fashionable, functional, and considers a universal design for ease of clothing function. It will also make the senior citizen fashion market more appealing to consumers. To provide jacket designs for senior citizens, we suggested casual jacket designs for embedding a functional device as well as a new jacket design library for women in their 50s and 60s.

본 연구에서는 노인 일자리의 고용 안정성과 노인의 전반적인 삶의 질이 어떠한 관계를 가지는지 살펴보고 나아가 고령층의 고용 안정성과 전반적인 삶의 질 사이에서 임금 만족도, 근무 환경 만족도, 전반적인 직무 만족도의 변인으로 이루어진 고용 조건 만족도의 매개 효과를 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 7차 고령화연구조사패널(KLoSA) 조사 데이터에서 임금 근로자만을 추출하여 변인들 사이의 상관관계와 매개효과를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 고용 안정성과 고용 조건 만족도는 정적관계를 가진 반면, 고용 안정성과 고용 조건 만족도 모두 전반적인 삶의 질과는 부적관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통하여 고용 안정성이 향상될수록 고용 조건에 대한 만족도는 올라가지만, 전반적인 삶의 질은 하락한다는 것을 알 수 있다. 본 연구는 고령층을 대상으로 한 연구를 진행할 경우 다른 연령층과는 다른 시각으로 접근해야 한다는 점과 노인 일자리의 질적 측면을 통하여 고령층의 삶의 질을 분석하려고 했다는 점에서 기존의 연구들과의 차별성 및 시사점을 가진다.

In order for this space to play a role as a center of communication: 1) A center space of community should be created at the point of intersection of main moving lines of pedestrians. 2) Hierarchical area should be set up between main moving lines of walking and communal outdoor space. 3) It should be designed in a way to reflect demands of seniors and be accommodated their activities and behaviors. 4) It should be functionally connected to local infrastructure facilities so that it can promote social exchanges among seniors. Points to be considered in welfare facilities: 1) They should be placed at the center of the complex to provide convenience to all seniors. 2) Area of senior citizen center should be subject to flexible legal regulation in light of the unique characteristics of the Complex. 3) in case that welfare facilities are installed in the same space, intermediate space is required to alleviate collision between private space and public space. 4) Senior assistance facilities should put more emphasis on running programs that make good use of the space than on securing the space itself.

우리나라는 고령화 추세의 가속화로 인한 도시철도의 노인무임수송 급증이 만성적 적자를 초래하는 이유가 되고 있다. 도시철도의 노인무임수송으로 인한 지속적 적자가 앞으로도 예상되는 가운데 같은 대중교통 수단인 버스의 경우 노인인구에 대해 일반요금을 부과하고 있는 반면, 도시철도만 무임수송을 행하고 있다는 점은 대중교통 이용 요금체계 상의 형평성 문제를 제기할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 노인층의 무임수송 및 대중교통 형평에 관한 의식조사를 실시하고, 도시철도와 버스간의 노인인구에 대한 요금체계 이원화에 따른 형평성문제의 대안으로 두 수단 간의 적절한 요금비율의 도출을 통해 도시철도와 버스를 함께 이용할 수 있는 방안을 제시해 노인무임수송으로 인한 문제를 개선할 수 있는 방안을 도출하고자 한다. 이와 같은 대안은 공기업이 자주성 있는 경영을 할 수 있게 함과 동시에 대중교통수단 간의 형평의 문제도 개선할 수 있는 방안으로 도시철도의 노인무임수송으로 인한 만성적자를 개선할 수 있는 여러 방안 중 하나가 될 수 있을 것이다.

In recent years, the population composition of rural area is changing due to the decreasing population growth of the aged with disability and people returning to farming. Since 1970's the rural community facilities have been spreaded out across most rural villages. Although the rural community facilities are the most widely used facilities, the existing facilities are need to be new built or remodeled according to demographic changes, usage of facilities, and environmental condition. Given this reality, the rural community facilities such as village assembly hall and nursing home for senior citizen are not only used for daily life place but also used like co-residence having meals and sleeping together. Therefore the rural community facilities have the potential to become welfare service space for rural elderly people. This research focuses on the current situation of universal design applied community facilities. According to the research, most of the village community facilities were built in the 1990s and 82% of the buildings were more than 15 years old. Furthermore, 45% of the village community facilities more than 15 years old most have a ground floor in masonry structure. The area of the building is 65% less than $100m^2$. The width of the access entrance, the height of the sink, gas safety valve and so forth were relatively well designed. However, the handrail of the entrance, space in front of the toilet bowl, the height difference between the entrance and floor, the installation of the width of the ramp and stair handrail was relatively incomplete. Village community facilities to be built in the future should be universal design fundamentally.
