Purpose: To compare and analyze current state of domestic and foreign educational program to develop a program and provide basic information for qualitative improvement of the program. Method: Referred to records and used various methods as searching on the Internet. Analyzing methods and standards are as follow : 1) As for the current status of domestic educational program, find out about organizations that conduct the program 2) As for the current status of foreign program, find out about United States, Canada and United Kingdom. 3) As for comparison and analysis, find out about curriculum, subject, the number of people, content, cost and time. Results: In comparison and analysis of subjects and program, United States, Canada and U. K. specified the subjects according to occupations to offer various programs appropriate for special occupational situations whereas domestic program only provide education of CPR and usage of AED. Foreign countries provide sufficient time from 5.5 to 40 hours according to occupations. In contrast, Korea only provide 2-4 hours of educations, which is insufficient to master techniques of first aid. In addition, foreign countries precisely regulate organizations that fulfill the qualification and specific guidelines for content of education. However, Korea doesn't have any standards of qualification or guidelines. Discussion: It is necessary to specify first aid education according to occupations to provide diverse programs. Furthermore, it is necessary to establish nationwide regulations for subjects and content of the programs of the first responder.

한국의 주요 고문헌 기관과 이들 기관이 소장한 고문헌이 디지털화 된 진도와 그 내용을 분석하였다. 이 고문헌을 이용하기 위한 연합조직을 검토하였다. 국가의 고문헌 디지털화를 위한 정책과 향후계획을 파악하였다. 고문헌의 디지털화를 위한 절차와 필요조건을 제안하였다. (1) 1980년대에 추진하기 시작한 국가도서관 대학도서관 문도서관 등의 도서관 관리 검색 이용 시스템의 디지털화는 이미 상당한 수준에 도달하였다. 고문헌의 소장량은 상당히 많고 내용적 가치도 높다. 일부 디지털화 된 자료는 이미 Internet을 통하여 제공되고 있다. 그러나 전반적으로 고문헌의 디지털화 된 수준은 아직도 궤도에 오르지 못한 상태로 분발이 요구된다. (2) 이미 제공되고 있는 디지털 고문헌의 Data Base는 목록정보 DB 목차와 해제정보 DB 전문정보 DB로 구분할 수 있으며, 국내외 자료를 포함하고 있다. 그 수량은 본문의 서술과 같다. (3) 디지털 고문헌의 유형은 고서 고문서 Micro 책판 등을 포함하고 있다 (4) 디지털 고문헌 DB의 입력 방법은 Text Image PDF 형태 등이다. (5) 고문헌의 연합조직을 구축하여 중복 투자를 피하고 봉사 효율을 높이고 있다. 고문헌의 이상적인 디지털화를 위하여 갖추어야 할 점을 제안하면 다음과 같다. (1) 우선 고문헌 디지털화 업무의 통정기구를 조직하여, 일정한 수준의 권한을 부여하고 종합적 계획을 수립한 후 추진하여야 한다. (2) 장단기 계획을 세워서 여러 디지털화 업무의 성격을 분석하고, 점진적으로 추진하여야 한다 (3) 고문헌 자료의 전문가를 양성하여 DB를 구축하고 관리하여야 한다.

In recent decades, as the utilization of complementary and alternative medicine in the United State have been growing rapidly, regulatory controls surrounding complementary and alternative medicine(CAM) aims to ensure patient protection against unproven practices and to provide safe and effective treatments. Regulation and policy method on licensing CAM practitioners varies across the states. Over 85% of the states have the licensing system for acupuncturists, chiropractors, and naturopaths. For acupuncture, although the requirements for formal education are various across the states, a unified written examination has been adopted by almost entire states which have acupuncturist licensing law. Medicare, the public medical insurance, does not cover CAM practices except chiropractic and biofeedback. In some states, however, Medicaid programs cover some CAM therapies including acupuncture, naturopathy, and massage therapy. 67% of Health Maintenance Organizations, the private health plans, provide at least one modality of CAM services. In conclusion, government policies have been strengthened to ensure patient protection, and will continue to integrate CAM practices that are proven to be safe and effective into mainstream health care system.

The tripartite mission of 'academic medicine' is education, research, and patient care. Academic medical centers (AMCs) are carrying out the mission and ultimately aiming to improve the health of people and communities. Globally, AMCs are facing a tremendous financial risk stemming from the changes in health insurance reimbursement plans and a shortage of human resources. Innovative AMCs in the United States are trying to transform their physician-centered, and siloed structure into a patient-centered, and integrated structure. They are also building integrated systems with primary healthcare groups to provide continuous patient care from primary to tertiary levels and making strategic networks based on value-based payment and the patient-centered model. These changes have been proven to improve outcomes of patient care and increase fiscal revenues, which are both crucial in supporting education and research. To address the shortage of human resources, programs are being built to develop newly appointed faculty for the future. AMCs have different approaches to bringing changes into their organizations; however, there is a common emphasis on 'a patient-centered approach,' which helps them set more explicit organizational values and make strategic decisions based on their values. Korean AMCs are facing similar challenges to AMCs in the United States in spite of many differences between the countries' healthcare systems. The innovative efforts of AMCs in the United States to address the challenges will be helpful, well-worked examples for Korean AMCs with similar challenges.

Despite the large and ongoing investments in information systems and technologies, many organizations still suffer from the lack of integration and interoperability of multiple information systems, In order to deal with these enduring problems, a number of government organizations and corporate firms in the United States have developed and maintained IT architectures through enterprise architecture planning. An IT architecture is a decision-making framework for IT planners and developers, establishing guidelines for the individual IT resource owners and users. It provides guidance to those involved in building and maintaining IT systems and infrastructure. Enterprise architecture planning represents a new paradigm of information systems planning in that it addresses the long-term view of the enterprise organization from top-level principles to detailed technology architectures. This paper explores a couple of cases in the successful implementation of IT architectures in both public and private sectors, and proposes a step-by-step methodology for building an effective IT architecture.

Environmental Literacy is needed to establish a sustainable society and can be very well developed through Outdoor Environmental Education(OEE). However, establishing OEE in Korea is a very difficult. Thus, it is very important to find out which factors influence the sustainability of OEE. The purpose of this study is to identify those factors. Participatory observation research and some interviews were used in "The Whale Class" of the University of Georgia in the United States. Major findings and recommendations were as follows: (1) OEEs give participants good experiences about the environment; (2) Program operators of OEEs are enthusiastic about education and environmental conservation; (3) Good educational practices such as cooperative education and participation in conversation foster learning; (4) Good organizations with guest lectures from various environmental fields would be beneficial; (5) Public information about environmental programs would be helpful; (6) Administrative support for those organizations connected to environmental programs would be useful; and (7) OEE provide reflection activities to foster Environmental Literacy.

최근에 선진국은 저출산율과 고령화, 급격한 인구 이동 그리고 급속한 도시화와 산업화 등의 문제로 인하여 공동체 의식이 약화되고 있는 상황에 처해 있다. 이에 따라 미국, 일본 같은 선진국에서는 주민 지방자치 참여를 위한 지역 단위별 공동체조직을 형성하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 미국과 일본 마을기업의 법 제도를 중심으로 사례를 살펴보고, 사례의 분석결과의 적용가능성과 시사점을 제시하였다. 구체적으로 첫째, 선행연구를 바탕으로 마을기업의 개념과 등장배경 그리고 유형에 대하여 고찰하였다. 둘째, 미국과 일본 마을기업의 제도적 특성에 대해 검토하였다. 셋째, 미국 시애틀시와 일본 동경도 세타가야구 등 마을기업 법 제도 사례를 분석하였다. 넷째, 연구 결과에 따라 시사점을 제시하였다. 첫째, 전담행정조직을 설치하고 세분화해야 한다. 이는 각 지역별로 적합한 행정서비스 지원을 위해 출장소를 설치하고 마을 만들기를 지원하는 세분화된 조직체계를 구축해야 하다는 것이다. 둘째, 자주적인 재원을 확보해야 한다. 즉, 마을 만들기 사업을 할 때 재정적 지원에 의존하지 않고 자주적 재원을 지속적으로 확보하는 방안을 모색할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 단계적인 사업을 실행해야 한다. 이는 단계적 사업 시행을 통하여 주민들의 활동을 지원하고 지속적인 사업을 추진해야 한다. 넷째, 지역사회의 대학 및 특성화고등학교가 함께 사회혁신과 같은 지역혁신을 위한 프로그램을 같이 운영할 수 있는 기반이 마련되어야 한다.
