  • Purpose: Since technology-based interventions can facilitate convenient access to healthcare for women with breast cancer, it is crucial to understand innovative approaches to maintaining the effectiveness of these interventions. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review of technology-based self-management interventions for women with breast cancer in six countries. We analyzed the characteristics of these interventions and examined their diverse health outcomes. Methods: Six databases were systematically searched to extract research articles using the keywords "breast cancer," "technology," and "self-management." The search was carried out up until June 12, 2023. From the 1,288 studies retrieved from the database search, 10 eligible papers were identified based on inclusion/exclusion criteria. Two authors independently extracted and compared the data from these articles, resolving any discrepancies through discussion. Results: Most of the 10 studies utilized web- or mobile-based technology, and one used artificial intelligence-based technology. Among the 12 health-related outcome variables, quality of life and symptom distress were the most frequently mentioned, appearing in six articles. Furthermore, an analysis of the intervention programs revealed a variety of common constructs and the involvement of managers in the self-management intervention. Conclusion: Incorporating key components such as self-management planning, diary keeping, and communication support in technology-based interventions could significantly improve the self-management process for breast cancer survivors. The practical application of technology has the potential to empower women diagnosed with breast cancer and improve their overall quality of life, by providing timely and sustainable interventions, and by leveraging available resources and tools.

  • An innovative inertial reactive armor is being developed through a multi-discipline project. Unlike the well-known explosive or non-explosive reactive armour that uses high-energy explosives or bulging effect, the proposed inertial reactive armour uses active disc elements that is set to rotate rapidly upon impact to effectively deflect and disrupt shaped charges and kinetic energy penetrators. The effectiveness of the proposed armour highly depends on the tangential velocity of the impact point on the rotating disc. However,for a single layer armour with an array of high-speed rotating discs, the tangential velocity is relatively low near the center of the disc and is not available between the gap of the discs. Therefore, it is necessary to configure the armor with double layers to increase the tangential velocity at the point of impact. This paper explores a multi-objective geometry design optimization for the double-layered armor using Nelder-Mead optimization algorithm and integration tools of the python programming language. The optimization objectives include maximizing both average tangential velocity and high tangential velocity areas and minimizing low tangential velocity area. The design parameters include the relative position (translation and rotation) of the disc element between two armor layers. The optimized design results in a significant increase of the average tangential velocity (38%), increase of the high tangential velocity area (71.3%), and decrease of the low tangential velocity area (86.2%) as comparing to the single layer armor.

  • With the continuous advancement of computer technology, deep learning models have emerged as innovative tools in shaping various aspects of architectural design. Recognizing the distinctive perspective of children, which differs significantly from that of adults, this paper contends that conventional standards may not always be the most suitable approach in designing urban structures tailored for children. The primary objective of this study is to leverage neural style networks within the design process, specifically adopting the artistic viewpoint found in children's illustrations. By combining the aesthetic paradigm of urban architecture with inspiration drawn from children's aesthetic preferences, the aim is to unearth more creative and subversive aesthetics that challenge traditional norms. The selected context for exploration is the landmark buildings in Qingdao City, Shandong Province, China. Employing the neural style network, the study uses architectural elements of the chosen buildings as content images while preserving their inherent characteristics. The process involves artistic stylization inspired by classic children's illustrations and images from children's picture books. Acting as a conduit for deep learning technology, the research delves into the prospect of seamlessly integrating architectural design styles with the imaginative world of children's illustrations. The outcomes aim to provide fresh perspectives and effective support for the artistic design of contemporary urban buildings.

  • This study aimed to propose an innovative teaching pedagogy using a half-scale body form in apparel design education and evaluate its effectiveness in augmenting students' understanding of ergonomic patterns. Constructed in alignment with Phoenix's (2018) study, which used 3D body scanning and digital editing software, the half-scale body form was created through a five-step process, encompassing body measurement, 3D body modeling, fabrication of a physical half-scale body form, pattern making, and evaluation. Implemented in an undergraduate patternmaking course offered at a 4-year university in the metropolitan Seoul, this instructional approach's effectiveness was gauged through students' course projects and exit interviews. The results underscored the positive impact of the proposed teaching pedagogy on students' grasp of ergonomic pattern development, fostering a keen understanding of diverse body shapes and sizes and the relationship between the human body and garments. Furthermore, it played a role in cultivating positive body image and self-endorsement among students. The research contributes meaningfully by presenting a fresh perspective in apparel design education, seamlessly integrating advanced anthropometric and technological tools into a conventional patternmaking classroom. It offers a novel learning experience for students majoring in apparel, creating a fun and interactive teaching environment.

  • 2020년 코로나로 인해 테크놀러지를 사용하는 교육(온라인교육 포함)이 그 가치를 확실히 인정받았다. 교사 위주였던 예전 교습 방법이 완전히 바뀌어졌다. 주어진 교과 과정을 온라인으로 예습하고 클라스에서는 토론을 하는 "flipped 학습"이 자리를 잡아가고있다. 아프리카에서는 온라인 클라스는 현지인들에게는 상상이 되지 않는 옵션이다. 하지만 이제 기술을 통한 교육 가치가 인정받기 시작했다. 먼 학교를 가야하는 학생들을 위해 작은 분교/정보 센타가 많이 세워져야한다. 한꺼번에 모이지 못하고, 정해진 소수의 팀이 와서 거리를 두고 컴퓨터를 통해 학습을 하고, 그후에 다음 팀이 와서 학습한다. 몇대의 컴퓨터를 공유하면서 교사가 없는 상황에서도 각자 인트라넷 전자 도서관을 통해서 학습을 한다. 학생들은 생전 처음 경험하는 힉습방법이지만, 오히려 자유롭게 스스로 주도하여 배우는 것을 경험한다. 학생들뿐 아니라, 교사 훈련도 되며 커뮤니티의 정보 센타가 되어 공동체가 힘을 얻을 것이다. 이렇게 훈련된 교사, 스텝들이 곳곳에 정보센터를 세워 훈련을 확장해 나갈 수 있다. 기술과 문제 파악, 현지 적용의 몇가지 STEM 프로젝트를 통하여 스스로 배울 수 있다는 깨달음으로 학생들은 배움에 대한 기쁨을 얻는다. 지난 2-3년간수행된 3천여명에 대한 STEM/IT교육의 결과가 이를 증명하고 있다. 스스로 배움을 터득해 나가고, 먼저 배운 학생들이 인턴이 되어 다른 학생들을 가르치는 실제적인 새로운 인재상을 통하여 임파워링의 플랫폼과 연속 채널을 구축하는데는 "IT" 가 최적이다. 그동안 탄자니아의 10개 도시에서 진행된 STEM교육의 결과와 앞으로 진행될 유니세프 프로젝트와 코이카 프로젝트를 통하여 Scale-up에 대한 내용도 본 발표에서 소개된다.

  • The study was conducted to centum the construct of individual perception and preference for work characteristics as personal factors influencing Korean nurses' job satisfaction. The subjects of the study were 231 nurses who are currently working in intensive care units and have been for a minimum of 6 months. The study used the Staff Perception and Preference Scale(Song et al., 1997) to measure the individual's perception and preference on the technical. practice. and management components of the ideal work environment. The Korean version of the Staff Perception and Preference Scale consists of 16 items on perception and 13 on preference with each item related on a scale from 1(not at all) to 4(a great deal). Psychometric testing revealed that the preference and perception scale is internally consistent with Chronbach's alphas of .83 for perception scale arid .80 for preference scale. The subscales of the perception and preference scale also showed acceptable reliability for the early stage of the development of the instruments with Chronbach alphas of .62-.76 and .69-.83 respectively. Criterion-related validity of the scale was tested by examining correlations with individual growth need that is conceptually close to individual preference. but not to individual perception. Individual growth need was significantly related to individual preference(r=.63, p<.05), but the correlation with the perception scale was not significant. A separate factor analysis for the each of perception and preference scales was performed with a three-factor loading solution based on a previous study. The results on the staff perception scale confirmed with varimax rotation that the items were cleanly and strongly loaded on technique. practice and management components, which together explained 50.7% of the variance. The factor analysis on the staff preference scale also yielded a three factor solution that explained 56.7% of the variance. but items on technique and management components were loaded together. This phenomena may due to the current nursing delivery system in Korea where nurses never experience either shared governance nor case management, and as a results they may not be able to consider management roles as their potential extended roles. Therefore, more efforts should be given to enhance nurses' autonomy and decision making in the technique, practice and management components of their work environment. Meanwhile, there is a need for continuously confirming and developing tools for individual perception and preferences to effectively enhance job satisfaction among Korean nurses through innovative work environments.

  • 전국 135개 인문계 고등학교에서 402명의 교사들을 대상으로 제6차 고등학교 과학과 교육과정의 적절성과 실천에 대한 고등학교 과학 교사들의 인식을 조사하였다. 대부분의 교사들은 목표에 교육과정 개정의 기본 방침이 잘 드러나 있고, 내용 체계와 내용은 적절하다고 생각하였다. 그러나 목표가 과학 교육 자료개발과 실제 지도 및 평가에 도움이 되도록 진술되지 않았으며, 방법 및 평가에 제시된 진술문은 교사의 탐구 지도 능력과 학교의 여건을 고려할 때 적절하지 않다고 생각하는 교사들이 많았다. 교육과정의 개정 내용을 교사 연수에서 충분히 다루지 않았으며, 개정된 교육과정에 의해 학습한 학생들의 지식 이해, 태도, 문제 해결 능력이 향상되지 않았다고 생각하는 교사들이 많았다. 학습 지원 시설과 자료의 부족, 입시 위주의 수업 및 평가 등으로 인하여, STS적 접근방법의 사용, 단원의 재구성, 학습 집단 구성의 다양화, 평가 도구 공동 개발 등 교육과정에서 제시한 수업 지도 방법을 실천하는 교사는 적었다.
