This study is to solve the public education's dilemma between the standardized education to maximize learning efficiency and the personalized education to maximize learning effectiveness, using the paradox management process. The process is based on combining the TOC (Theory Of Constraints) and TRIZ (Russian Theory of Inventive Problem Solving), which is a creative way of thinking to draw the synergic effect by pursuing simultaneously the conflicting elements. Through this research, a new concept of learning method can be suggested on a public course. Further research should be performed to develop a learning guideline based on the students' empirical study results.

The purpose of this study is to develope a case management education program for employees in the long-term mental health care facilities to reflect strength perspective and analyze the program's effectiveness. The participants in this study were 30 employees working in the long-term mental health care facilities in Seoul and Gyeong-gi regions(15 each), and the program's effectiveness was verified with those participants. The total 13 sessions of the education program was offered: three hours per session, and one session a month. The perception on clients(social distance, attitude towards mentally disorder people) and workers' competence(burnout, empowerment) were used as the measuring tool to verify the effectiveness of case management education. For data analysis, technical statistics and t-test were used in this study. As a result of the analysis, the social distance between the employees in the long-term mental health care facilities who participated in the case management education and clients decreased in relation with perception on clients, and attitude score towards clients improved. It was also verified that burnout decreased, and that empowerment improved in relation with the competence of the employees in the long-term mental health care facilities.

Eating behavior change as a result of nutrition education interventions as secondary prevention strategies can contribute to an increase in life expectancy and better health for older adults in the United States (U.S.). Many of the chronic conditions prevalent in older adults are modifiable by dietary changes, including heart disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity and osteoporosis. Important demographic observations in the U.S. including the projected large increase in number of older adults by 2030 have implications for nutrition education focus and services. A comprehensive review of nutrition education interventions for older adults in the U.S. published in 1995 identified elements from adult education theories that contribute to the effectiveness of nutrition education. These elements have been the focus of more recent studies with older adults providing additional evidence for relationships between concepts from commonly used behavior change theories and dietary patterns or change. In the U.S, an important program contributing to nutritional adequacy of the diet for older adults is the Elderly Nutrition Program which provides resources for congregate dining and includes a mandatory nutrition education component. Nutrition education is also provided through clinic based programs, and print and broadcast media. Application of the Transtheoretical Model has shown that the level of interest or motivation to comply with dietary guidance may be greater for some older adults due to an increasing burden of chronic disease and poorer quality of life, while others may not feel a need to change lifestyle habits.

This study examined the effectiveness of nutrition education and program using the diet rice bowl during a four-week diet program. Thirty-eight female college students were randomly assigned to a nutrition education (NE) group or a nutrition education and diet rice bowl (ND) group. The mean energy intake of the NE and ND group during the program was 1,130.8 kcal and 1,287.4 kcal, respectively. The total energy intake of both groups were significantly decreased during the program. In addition, the change of body weight and fat in both groups significantly decreased during the program. The NE group lost 2.8 kg of body weight and 1.4% of body fat, while the ND group lost 2.5 kg of body weight and 1.2% of body fat. The changes in total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol in both groups also significantly decreased during the program. However, there were no significant differences in the changes of body weight, body fat mass, the total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol between the two groups. This study could not identify a weight reduction effect of the diet rice bowl, however, this may be due to subjects' infrequent use of the diet rice bowl by their frequent meal skipping and eating-out in our study. Therefore, further studies regarding the compliance to the diet rice bowl should be conducted to examine its effectiveness on weight control.

Background: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of role-play in dental hygiene education by analyzing learners' perceptions and experiences of role-play classes. Methods: Role-play was used as a teaching method to run dental medical communication and practice classes for 31 3rd graders in the Department of Dental Hygiene to investigate the learner's perception of role-play classes, effectiveness of the classes, and learner's perception of the experience. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the differences in learners' perceptions of the role-play classes according to the main characteristics related to dental health communication education. Results: The correlation coefficient between awareness of dental communication education (4.74 ± 0.35) and awareness of role-play classes (4.44 ± 0.48) was an Rs of 0.634, showing a significant positive correlation (p<0.001). Conclusion: Learners recognized that dental hygiene communication competency is important for dental hygienists. In addition, a strategic teaching design is necessary to reduce the learner's burden on role-play considering the learner's experience, which is perceived as a disadvantage of role-play

Early algorithm education is very important in order to nurture excellent S/W developers in an information society. However a algorithm learning is a great challenge to elementary school students since understanding what a computer algorithm written in a static text format meant to do is difficult. It is expected that a student can easily visualize a algorithm through animations. In this study, we evaluate the pedagogical effectiveness of algorithm visualizations in teaching the fundamental data structures and algorithms in elementary schools. Thus we defined a new measure called 'Algorithm Visualization Factor(AVF)' and developed both text-oriented and animation-oriented PPTs of algorithm education elements, that is, Stack, Queue, Bubble Sort, Heap Sort, BDF, and DFS. We have conducted experiments and evaluations on diverse students groups. Extensive experiment results show that the average score of the student groups using animation-orirented PPT is greater(22%) than the one of the student groups using text-orirented PPT.
