미국의 새 수학과 규준인 Common Core State Standards for Mathematics는 잘 알려진 것처럼 모든 학생이 대학에 진학하거나 직업에 종사하기위한 준비를 위해 명료하고 일관된 틀을 제공하는 것을 목표로 개발되어, 현재 40개의 주가 이 새로운 규준을 채택하고 있다. 이 규준에 관한 최근 우리나라의 선행연구들은 규준을 Cluster Heading 수준에서 소개하고 있고, 규준의 수준에서 우리나라의 교육과정과 비교하고 있다. 그러니 실제로 각 세부 규준의 내용을 상세하게 해석한 내용은 수면 아래의 모습을 보여 준다. 캘리포니아 주의 수학과 규준의 내용을 상세하게 해석한 책이 Mathematics Framework for California Public Schools이다. 이 연구는 미국 캘리포니아 주의 수학과 규준인 California Common Core State Standards(CA CCSSM)와 이 규준의 해설서라고 부르기에 적당한 Mathematics Framework for California Public Schools에서 제시한 초등학교 도형영역을 상세하게 살펴보는 것이 목적이다.

In the United States, California is well known for its rigorous education and licensing system regarding East Asian Medicine and acupuncture. As in most other states in America, the State government controls the practice of acupuncture, massage, acupressure therapy, food therapy, and natural therapy using a board established to set, maintain, and uphold licensing credentials for acupuncturists and practitioners of East Asian medicine. In California the system started in the 1970s when the State Legislature passed a bill to measure competency, and license acupuncturists. This study briefly describes the California Acupuncture Board (CAB), which is authorized to control the related education, examination, continuing education, and management of licenses already awarded. This study addresses the essential and minimum educational requirement established by the CAB for licensure, that is mandate classroom lecture with additional 950 hours clinic training, and the 50 hours of continuing education credits earned every two years, for maintaining the license.

Improving long-term performance in highway projects is an imperative goal for public administrations. Project delivery and procurement methods might provide an opportunity to align design and construction processes with this goal. Previous studies have explored whether project delivery methods impact the long-term performance of highway projects. However, these studies did not focus specifically on how core elements within the procurement might relate to long-term performance. Thus, this research aims to fill this gap by exploring to what extent and how long-term evaluation criteria are considered in design-build best-value procurement of highway projects. To this end, content analysis was conducted on 100 projects procured between 2009 and 2019 by 19 DOTs across the U.S. The analysis of 365 evaluation criteria found that (1) roughly 11% of them related to long-term performance. (2) The weight given to these criteria in the overall technical proposal was lower than 30%. (3) Sixty-five percent (65%) of long-term evaluation criteria focused on design while 15% related to materials and technology, respectively. The results of this study are a first steppingstone to initiate a deep exploration of the relationship between procurement practices and actual project performance. Currently, with sustainability and life cycle assessments being top concerns in infrastructure projects, this line of research might be of particular interest to DOTs and highway agencies across the U.S. and worldwide.

The purpose of this study was to identify U.S. consumers' preferences for Bibimbap and to determine whether or not Bibimbap can be adopted into the American palate. A total of 214 people tasted a controlled amount of Bibimbap and Gochujang sauce (red chili pepper sauce) and then completed a preference test. Bibimbap was highly rated overall in the areas of appearance, color, smell, and taste. Gochujang sauce was also well-accepted in terms of taste and spiciness. Most of the participants disliked the seaweed and shiitake mushrooms, which means that Bibimbap can improve its garnish taste and aroma by removing them. Further, a more watery sauce was served as foreigners are not familiar with mixing food culture. Therefore, by offering diverse ingredient options, the acceptance of traditional Bibimbap can be increased in the U.S.

The purpose of this study was to examine dietary frequencies among Korean American adolescents in California, including the correlation of acculturation and parental dietary Consumption. This study was drawn from cross-sectional telephone surveys based on data from a larger study of Korean Americans in California using random sampling of residential phone listings. A total of 494 Korean American adolescents, ages 12 through 17, in California were collected with dietary frequencies and acculturation and one parents' demographic and dietary consumption information. Three-quarters of adolescents were classified as 'more acculturated group' into the U.S. society with a lower preference to Korean foods, frequent snacking, and lower consumptions of rice and kimchi. Other quarter of adolescents was classified as 'less acculturated group'. However, the most frequent food items by both groups were rice and kimchi. Fruit and vegetable consumption was associated between adolescents and parents in both groups, but rice and kimchi were associated only among the more-acculturated group. In conclusion, dietary frequencies of Korean American adolescents were influenced by acculturation and parental dietary consumption. These findings should inform future epidemiological researches as well as efforts to enhance the diet of Koreans and other immigrants.

본 연구에서는 금융위기를 전후하여 미국내 한인의 집거지역인 캘리포니아지역 한인경제의 변화와 한인은행에 대한 연구를 하였다. 미통계청의 Census자료를 이용해 한인경제에 대해 분석하고, 연방예금보험공사(FDIC: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation)의 자료를 이용해 LA지역 한인은행의 현황(자산, 고용, 예금, 부채 등)에 대해 분석하였다. 그리고 한인은행 관계자와의 심층인터뷰를 통해 이들 금융기관의 현황과 문제점을 살펴보고, 이를 해결하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 통계자료로 살펴본 결과 재미한인들의 미국내 경제적 위상은 크게 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 금융위기를 전후하여 도태되지 않은 한인금융기관은 미국내 주류은행들에 뒤지지 않는 규모의 은행으로 양적 팽창을 해왔음을 볼 수 있으며, 은행들의 체질도 상당부분 개선되고 있다. 또한 은행들의 경영성과도 지속적으로 개선되고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper overviews different exit strategies for the U.S. from the debt-overhang, and analyses their implications for emerging markets and global stability. These strategies are discussed in the context of the debates about secular-stagnation versus debt-overhang, the fiscal theory of the price level, the size of fiscal multipliers, prospects for a multipolar currency system, and historical case studies. We conclude that the reallocation of U.S. fiscal efforts towards infrastructure investment aiming at boosting growth, followed by a gradual tax increase, aiming at reaching a modest primary fiscal surplus over time are akin to an upfront investment in greater long-term global stability. Such a trajectory may solidify the viability and credibility of the U.S. dollar as a global anchor, thereby stabilizing Emerging Markets economies and global growth.

Over the past centuries, industrialization in developed and developing countries has had a negative impact on global warming, releasing $CO_2$ emissions into the Earth's atmosphere. In recent years, the transportation sector, which emits one-third of total $CO_2$ emissions in the United States, has adapted by implementing a climate change action plan to reduce $CO_2$ emissions. Having an environmental policy might be an essential factor in mitigating the man-made global warming threats to protect public health and the coexistent needs of current and future generations; however, to my best knowledge, no research has been conducted in such a context with appropriate statistical validation process to evaluate the effects of climate change policy on $CO_2$ emission reduction in recent years in the U.S. transportation. The empirical findings using an entity fixed-effects model with valid statistical tests show the positive effects of climate change policy on $CO_2$ emission reduction in a state. With all the 49 states joining the climate change action plans, the U.S. transportation sector is expected to reduce its $CO_2$ emissions by 20.2 MMT per year, and for the next 10 years, the cumulated $CO_2$ emission reduction is projected to reach 202.3 MMT, which is almost equivalent to the $CO_2$ emissions from the transportation sector produced in 2012 by California, the largest $CO_2$ emission state in the nation.

미국은 국가안보와 해운산업 국제 경쟁력 강화를 위하여 미 연방상선대학과 같은 4년제 대학교육으로 상선사관을 양성하고 있다. 미국의 해기사 양성제도는 크게 연방정부에서 지원 운영하는 Academy (U. S. Merchant Marine Academy와 U. S. Coast Guard Academy)와 각 주(State)에서 지원 운영하는 캘리포니아해양대학교 등 6개 주립대학의 정규 4년제 교육을 통하여 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 미국 해기사 교육기관 중 교육중심의 캘리포니아 해양대학의 교육제도, 실습방법, 실습선 운영형태를 파악하여 우리나라 해기사 교육제도에 도움이 되게 하고자 한다.

여러 나라의 교육과정이나 교과서를 비교 분석하는 것은 그 나라 교육 관점과 방향을 파악하여 우리나라 교육과정 개정이나 교과서 집필 및 학생들의 수학 능력 향상을 위한 시사점을 도출하기 위한 것이다. 미국의 경우에 국가 수준의 교육과정을 운영하지 않지만, 2010년에 여러 주들이 주축이 되어 개발한 CCSSM이 주별로 채택되어졌고, 이에 따른 교과서가 개발 보급되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 CCSSM에 적극적인 반응을 보이며 주의 관점을 반영한 캘리포니아 주의 CA-CCSSM과 이에 따른 교과서에 제시된 분수 관련 내용을 분석하였다. 분석에서는 분수 개념과 관련된 주제를 등분할, 분수 개념, 가분수와 대분수, 몫으로서 분수와 비로서 분수, 동치분수, 크기 비교 등으로 나누어 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 분수 개념 도입 전에 기하 영역에서 등분할을 다루거나, 수직선 위의 수로 분수를 도입하여 분수에 대한 수감각과 양감을 기르게 하는 특징이 있었다. 또한 대분수, 동치분수, 여러 가지 분수의 정의 방식, 도입 시기, 방법 등에서도 우리나라와 차이가 있었다.
