  • Information literacy has been defined as "the ability to access, evaluate, and use information from a variety of sources." Recently, information literacy has become a hot topic in Korean education circles and school library fields, but few publications describe how to assess information literacy skills. This study is the first stage to develop a measurable assessment tool of the information literacy skills of korean high school students. In this paper, related projects, curricular models, and rubrics are reviewed and an assessment tool is suggested. This tool will be field-tested and revised on the results in the near future.

  • Office based injection laryngoplasty for voice and swallow disorders is increasing steadily. In recent years, the application of injection laryngoplasty is extended to inject medicine, such as cidofovir or botox. The reason why office based injection laryngoplasty is increasing in popularity is several potential advantages when compared with other procedures. It can avoid surgical scar and is easily performed with local anesthesia. However, injection can be performed in a variety of settings, depending on several factors, including the goal of the procedure, patient comfort and anatomy, and physician skill. In this article, we describe indication of injection laryngoplasty and discuss about various techniques for procedure.

  • It is widely recognized that conventional means for determining the minimum ignition energy(MIE) of powder are time-consuming and require operational skill. As a variety of new fine powders are being produced day by day in industry, there is an urgent need to a quicker and more economical means to measure MIE. To meet this requirement, we have developed a measurement system which employs a novel method to create an air/dust mixture in a miniature combustion box. In this system, the powder to be tested input into a hopper made of metal mesh, and successively fed downward to form a thin, curtain-like dust/air mixture by vibration. With this new apparatus, three type of powders -Lycopodium, Anthraquinone, and Polyacrylonitrile-were tested and the MIE data were compared with those taken with a conventional apparatus(the Hartmann tube). Two of them agreed satisfactory, but the other, anthraquinone, showed quite different values supposedly due to the agglomeration of the powder particles by static-charge.

  • Cognitive psychology has provided valuable theoretical perspectives on learning mathematics. Based on the metaphor of the mind as an information processing device, educators and psychologists have developed detailed models of competence in a variety of areas of mathematical skill and understanding. Unquestionably, these models are an asset in thinking about the curriculum we want our students to follow. But any psychological paradigm has aspects of learning and knowledge that it accounts for well, and others that it accounts for less well. For instance, the paradigm of cognitive science gives us valuable models of the knowledge we want our students to acquire; but in picturing the mind as a computational device it reduces us to conceiving of learning in individualist terms. It is less useful in helping us develop effective learning communities in our classrooms. In this paper I review some of the significant accomplishments of cognitive psychology for mathematics education, and some of the directions that situated cognition theorists are taking in trying to understand knowing and learning in terms that blend individual and social perspectives.

  • Sensitive issues are both common and problematic for health care providers because sensitive issues may interfere with the future provider-client relationship and effective care. Most current training for providers focuses on a particular issue, but this is inadequate because many issues may be sensitive, and which issues will be sensitive is unpredictable. We argue that issues become sensitive when they activate one or more of three common triggers, fear, stigma, and taboo. A cycle of negative internal and interpersonal responses to the sensitive issue often leads to unresolved health issues for clients and stress and feelings of inadequacy for providers. We recommend integrated pre-service and in-service skill building to help individual health care providers respond appropriately to a wide variety of sensitive issues. We also identify specific policies and procedures to strengthen organizational support for caregivers so that providers can address these sensitive issues effectively with their clients.

  • For decades, thousands of corporation introduced knowledge management systems to respond knowledge-based society. However, it seems that the systems merely focusing on knowledge accumulation and its sharing have been bounded by many restrictions in terms of new knowledge creation based on the life cycle of knowledge management systems. Moreover, recently, a variety of knowledge management activities regarding organization, systems, and process is emphasized as a strategic asset for a corporation to create core knowledge. Therefore, this study adopted the Csikszentmihalyi's flow theory to investigate the factors affecting knowledge creation and the success factors of knowledge management systems in virtual space. Prior studies argued that flow experience should be a prerequisite for creative knowledge creation. In that vein, this research revealed the causal relationships for flow experience between the determinants of clear goal, immediate feedback, congruence of challenge and skill. Additionally, it empirically examined how flow experience affected the exploratory behavior of knowledge creation.

  • Construction errors can have significant effects on project performance. Yet, any attempt to tackle error should be driven by the ability to understand its archetypal nature. This study aims to analyze a variety of construction errors at the execution stage, in order to develop a comprehensive set of categories that shall provide insights about the effect of different error types on the industry. We investigate a database provided by an authoritative source, which includes a number of 256 construction errors that occurred in the year 2009 in Dubai construction industry. Results from this study reveal that the most common error arose from 'poor workmanship' which accounted for 21% of the total encountered faults. The next most common types arose from the 'usage of impaired materials', followed by the 'deviation from an intended dimension'. These observations infer that the majority of construction errors are driven by workers' lack of skill or competence. Moreover, it suggests that execution-oriented errors are the major cause of faults and accidents rather than design errors.

  • In order to promote software industry, it is essential to train and utilize specialized software human resources in the industry. It is required to establish an appropriate qualification system for the industry in order to train and utilize the qualified human resources. The current national qualification system in the IT area cannot cope with the development of software industry and does not provide various qualifications required to the software workers. We analyze the problems of the current national qualification system for the software industry and propose a framework for improving the qualification system. Based on the review of the software skill standard and a range of technology levels, we suggest a new integrated qualification system that provides a variety of qualifications for various software skills at various levels. Also we propose policy alternatives for institutionalizing the new qualification system.
