The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the importance of space presentation and served food among potential customers who participate in a party by types of eating lifestyle. The analysis of the validated outcome indicated the followings: Significant differences were found among the participant groups in terms of the importance of spatial presentation and food depending on the eating lifestyle. All those points out that the international party events have a gradually growing demand though they are still in the inchoate stage. Therefore, it should be considered that spatial presentation and food suited to the taste of the participants of a party could contribute to making the party a successful event.

This is a traditional education content that has been consistently handled in elementary school mathematics textbooks since the first curriculum in Korea. It has been mainly used to find out the properties of the solid figure or to save the surface area. However, as the importance of spatial ability is increasingly emphasized, the nets of solids can be a very suitable learning material for dealing with the spatial ability. Therefore, in this study, we examined how the nets of solids were taught in elementary school mathematics curriculum and textbooks in Korea, and based on the analysis, we analyzed the contents of the nets of solids covered in textbooks of Japan, Singapore, Finland and Hong Kong. Through this study, we suggested the enhancement of activities to find the right nets, the presentation of solid figure from various angles, and the nets of solids with patterns for improvement of spatial visualization and spatial orientation.
