So far, most of Korea's newspapers indexing have been done manually using tesaurus. In recent years, however, the need for automatic indexing system has grown stronger so as for indexers to save time, efforts and money. And some newspapers have started establishing their databases along with introducing electronic newspapers and CTS. This thesis is on establishing and automatic indexing system for the full-text of the Korea Economic Daily's articles, which have been accumulated in its database, KETEL. In my thesis, I suggest methods to create a keyword file, a stopword list, an auxiliary word list and an infected word list by applying linguistic analysis methods to Hangul, taking advantage of the language's morphological peculiarity. Through these studies, I was able to reach four conclusions as follows. First, we can obtain satisfactory keywords by automatic indexing methods that were made through morphological analysis. Second, an indexer can improve the efficiency of indexing work by controlling extracted vocabulary, as syntax analysis and semantic analysis is not complete in Hangul. Third, The keyword file in this system which is made of about 20,000 most-frequently-used newspaper terms can be used in the future in compiling a thesaurus. Finally, the suggested methods to prepare an auxiliary word list and an infected word list can be applicable to designing other automatic systems.

This study attempted to examine the characteristics of discourse on the role of schools and to explore its implications. To this end, major daily newspaper articles during the pandemic, in which discourse on the role of schools increased rapidly, were reviewed. As a result, people made the following assumptions about the role of schools. First, schools are institutions that must provide equal learning. Second, schools are institutions that must provide caring education. These findings have led to renewed essential questions about the role of schools. It is also necessary to further subdivide and discuss the role of the school raised in the discourse. The results of this study implicated that all of these roles have the potential to bring about a structure that makes each teacher lean on passion and sacrifice without distinction between the role of the school and the role of the teacher.

Climate change is tough global issue with human being to tackle in cooperative manners, because climate change affects globally and has long-term detrimental impacts. To get a clue to this intricate problem, vertical governance (global, regional, national, and local) with horizontal governance should be well orchestrated. In this research, we analyzed about 24,000 articles in Korean daily newspapers from 1990 to 2018 to find out vertical and horizontal governance characters of Korean climate change. The result showed that Korean government followed the global issues but lacks relations with neighbor countries. and found a little actions in local government. In horizontal governance aspect, Korean government approached the climate change as a tool for economic development and lead the issues without communication with other two player which are market and civil society. We proposed to use market mechanism to facilitate the participation and Climate Change Framework Act to setup the mechanism for cooperation.

Purpose - Media is a significant distributional channel in sport. In terms of determining the influencer in building sport media contents, recent sport media studies have employed agenda-setting theory, assuming media itself as the agenda provider. In a real-world situation, however, sports stars have been deemed key factor determining distribution contents in sport. The starting point of this study is the "tacit premise" of agenda-setting theory. Given the agenda-setting theory, the current study attempted to explore the function of sport stars as an agenda provider, which is a key determinant of sport distribution. Research design, data, and methodology - This study has reviewed articles of Yuna Kim, Sang-hwa Lee, and Hyun-jin Ryu from daily newspapers including as dong-a ilbo and joongang ilbo (2013 to 2017). The study collected data, portable document format (PDF), from the online archive of dong-a ilbo and joongang ilbo. We coded the length of the article, the frequency, the size of the picture, and the structural form of the article. Inter-coder reliability was compared with data previously investigated by the researcher. Inter-coder reliabilities for study 1 and 2 was .89 and .85. To examine hypotheses, descriptive analysis, correlations, and cross-tap analysis were performed. Results - The results partially supported the hypotheses proposing the significant role of sports stars as the agenda setters in distributing sport media contents. In specific, the study found that the number of articles about sports stars prevailed the number of articles about regular athletes. Besides, studies found that the use of photos was more frequent in articles of sports starts than that of regular athletes. In sports newspaper articles, featured story articles were used more than straight-articles for news relating to sports stars. Also, sports newspaper of sports stars contained more information associated within an event rather than outside of an event. Conclusions - In sports journalism, this study challenges the current theory that the media affects the composition and the content of sports coverages. As the principle of the agenda-setting of sports media, the influence of sports stars must be continuously studied along with a follow-up study.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of reusing newspaper or paperbox waste by methane fermentation. When 15 g of newspaper and box wastes were digested separately for 24 days by batch fermentation, the amount of total organic acids produced were 2461 and 4978 mg/L, respectively. The tCOD removal rates were found to be 60.9 and 62.4%, respectively. In addition, the removal efficiencies of total solid were 34.8 and 33.4%, and those of volatile solid were 40.0 and 39.2%, respectively. During this period, the amounts of biogas produced were 6.95 and 6.43 L. In a semicontinuous reaction, tCOD removal efficiencies for newspaper and box wastes were 64.7 and 65.0%, respectively, after 14 days of digestion. After 25 days, which were needed to stabilize the methane fermentation, the amounts of biogas produced daily were 0.31 and 0.30 L/g.dry wt, respectively. Methane contents were 57.3 and 56.2%, respectively, and the pHs in the anaerobic acidogenic and methanogenic fermenters were 5.0 and 7.5, respectively.
