  • Many scholars exerted efforts to establish archival studies as a specialized academic domain. Two of the most often-quoted leading scholars who worked for the emergence of modern archival studies were English archivist Hilary Jenkinson (1882-1961) and American archivist Theodore R. Schellenberg (1903-1970). As they were published over 50 years ago, their theories were not only applied in various areas, but they also served as important principles in archival practice in the past. Nevertheless, there only exists a few translated books on the prominent archival theories. These studies-which directly focus on their theories or related studies such as comparative studies-lack Korean translations. The objectives of this study are to review Jenkinson and Schellenberg's biography and their professional achievements, as well as to empirically examine and investigate why there were differences in their theories by reviewing the periods they had lived and worked in. To achieve these objectives, the review of their academic and biographical backgrounds was prioritized. Their archival definitions, assessment, roles and perspectives on education as archivists were then compared one by one.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the curriculum of iSchools in North America. To achieve the aim of the study 17 iSchools and the same number of L-Schools were chosen from the same regional area. Data were collected mainly through each of their official websites and email inquiry. The graduate courses were classified into 8 domains judging by its title, and conducted t-test for a comparative analysis with L-School curriculum using SPSS 19.0. It is found that 'Information Studies', 'Practicum and Study', and 'Library and Information Center Management' domains were dominant in iSchool curriculum. In the comparative analysis, 'Study in Library and Information Science' domain showed lower percentage, whereas 'Information Studies', 'Library and Information Center Management', 'Practicum and Study' domains showed higher percentage than the L-School curriculum.

  • In order to achieve high efficiency of energy use and environment-friendly architectural design, various loads such as cooling, heating and hot water required by the building sector must be accurately predicted. Many studies used dynamic simulation tool to evaluate and analyze building energy performance. However, there are few studies on the comparative analysis of load results by each simulation and the evaluation of simulation characteristics and functions. In this study, the cooling, heating loads and energy demand of the buildings were evaluated using three dynamic simulations for the building with the same input conditions, and the characteristics of each simulation were compared and analyzed through the results. As a result of simulation comparative analysis, cooling, heating load and energy demand was lowest in square type and north-south direction conditions.

  • This study examined the effects of physical activities using Korean dance upon the motor abilities of young children. The subjects of this study were divided into 2 groups. The first group was an experimental group (boy=12, girl=13) who participated in the Korean dance class and the other group was a comparative group (boy=11, girl=14). Experiments were performed during 18 sessions for 9 weeks. The study findings are as follows. First, physical activities using Korean dance had positive effects upon the development of basic motor abilities in young children. In terms of these basic motor abilities, movement motor ability and whole muscle operation motor ability showed significant differences between the pre-test and post-test stage in the experiment group and between the experimental and comparative groups in the post-test stage. On the other hand, in terms of non-movement motor abilities, there was a significant difference between the pre- and post-test stages for the experimental group, but no significant difference in the post-test stage for the experimental or comparative groups. Second, physical activities using Korean dance had positive effects upon the development of perceptive motor abilities in young children. In other words, in the sub-variables of perceptive motor abilities, there were significant differences between the pre- and post-test stages of the experimental group which experienced physical activities using Korean dance. In conclusion, the study findings showed that physical activities using Korean dance had positive effects upon the increase of both basic motor abilities and perceptive motor abilities in young children. Additionally, the experimental group exhibited more positive effects in the various areas of motor abilities than the comparative group.

  • The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the characteristics of ideal figure aimed by the moral education of both Korea and Japan by comparing and analyzing the descriptive content and characters' tendency appeared in the moral education textbooks published in accordance with the current moral education curriculum in Korea and Japan. First, this study examined the tendency of real persons appeared in the moral education textbooks in both countries. To be specific, this study attempted a quantitative comparative analysis of the characters' tendency by expressing the distribution of the characters by appearance time, male-to-female ratio, Koreans and foreigners and characters by occupation and position in percentage. Furthermore, it attempted to demonstrate the particular emphasis in values and virtues in both countries by examining the moral values derived from the characters' decency, way of life and teachings and expressing the distribution of the characters by value and virtue in percentage.

  • The purpose of this study was to verify the trends of Korean students' achievement of earth science, especially the gender differences, in recent two international comparative studies, TIMSS-R (The Third International Mathematics and Science Study-Repeat) and PISA 2000 (Programme for International Student Assessment). To achieve this purpose, the 33 earth science items in TIMSS-R and 13 earth and environmental science items in PISA 2000 were analyzed. As a result of the comparison between Korean- and international percent correct, Korean students showed especially higher achievement in close-ended items or items required 'understanding of simple information.' Korean students, in particular Korean male students, also showed higher achievement in items of data interpretation. On the other hand, Korean students, in particular Korean female students, showed relatively lower achievement in astronomy items. The serious gender differences occurred in all aspects of items, regardless of item content, item format, and performance expectations.

  • In his discussion of some desirable tuning points in comparative literary studies, Henry H. H. Remark has emphasized the importance of literary approach to other forms of art. Understanding the significance of such a method of comparative literature, the present study focusses on three contemporary Korean poets who have transferred Mark Chagall′s paintings into their poetry: Youngtae Kim, Chunsoo Kim, and Sunghun Lee. They are usually evaluated as surrealist/modernist in our literary circles. In transforming Chagall′s paintings into his poems, Youngtae Kim has incorporated a variety of surrealist mosaic techniques such as montage and collage. The resultant peculiarity of his poetry makes it hard to lay bare the correspondence or similarities between his poetic world and the world of Chagall′s artistry. It is nonetheless possible to see how Kim, as a poet and painter, had interpreted Chagall′s world with a bird′s-eye view of it. Chunsoo Kim′s "Snow Falling on the Village of Chagall" relates specially to one of Chagall′s paintings, "I and My Village." The present study has taken notice of this correlation in sorting out some basic elements of poetic transfiguration. One of the techniques employed in the poem under discussion is that of juxtaposing the Russian village of Chagall and the Korean village the poet visualizes, with the effect of putting two national traditions in contrast. A reading of the poem reveals that it is not so much the result of a detailed analysis of the painting as a revival of its lingering impression as a whole. In Sunghun Lee′s poetry, surrealist techniques are again a hallmark. But his method of transferring the images of the paintings into his poems falls somewhere between those of Youngtae Kim′s and Chunsoo Kim′s: it is akin to the ′bird′s-eye method′ of the former and shares the impressionistic touch with the latter, but at the same time Lee is analytical by disposition and opts for concrete descriptions. ′Love,′ ′farm,′ and ′time′ are the keywords that are brought under discussion in the present study. There is a growing demand in the current international comparative literary studies for broadening the area of comparative literature. This study hopes to be a small contribution to endorsing the importance of comparative approach to fine arts.
