The purposes of this study were to examine the general tendency of knowledge and problem solving abilities of children to cope with climate change and to find out whether there is a difference in the ability to cope with climate change based on the gender and age of young children. For this purpose, 129 children aged 5 and 6 who are attended in day care center in Seoul and Gyeonggi area were selected. We used 10 questions to measure climate change response knowledge modified environment conservation knowledge checklist and used five problem solving situations to measure climate change response problem solving ability modified safety problem solving ability test item. The collected data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, two-way ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. As a result, 6-year-old children's knowledge of climate change response and ability to solve climate change problems was higher than that of 5-year-olds. There was no gender difference in knowledge of climate change response and ability to solve climate change. The higher the knowledge level of children's response to climate change, the higher their ability to solve climate change response problems. The results of this study confirmed the association between children's knowledge of climate change response and problem solving ability and showed that a more systematic curriculum for improving knowledge and problem solving ability for preventing climate change needs to be provided to children.

Purpose : This study is descriptive correlation research aimed to examine knowledge and performance ability of cardiopulmonary resuscitation of student attending the college and provide basic materials in developing cardiopulmonary resuscitation program. Methods : Data collection was conducted with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade college students sampled randomly by giving them questionnaire from Sep. 1 to 4, 2008. It used the research instrument used by Choi Hyang Ok(2006) and revised and complemented by the researcher and 200 data excluding questionnaire showing unfaithful responses were used for analysis. Data collected were verified with technical statistics using SPSS/PC(version 12.0), t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results : The results of this study are as follows. 1. Subjects' knowledge score of cardiopulmonary resuscitation was average .40(out of 1) and their performance ability score was average 2.39. 2. In the knowledge of cardiopulmonary resuscitation according to subjects' general characteristics, score was higher between over thirty and below twenty in age and in male subjects by sex and there were statistically significant differences(t=3.069, p=.029). 3. In the knowledge of cardiopulmonary resuscitation related to subjects' cardiopulmonary resuscitation, there were statistically significant differences in such variables as 'have you ever heard about cardiopulmonary resuscitation' (t=3.685, p=.000), 'presence or absence of education of cardiopulmonary resuscitation'(t=3.764, p=.000) and 'experience of observing cardiopulmonary resuscitation'(t=4.747, p=.000). In the performance ability of cardiopulmonary resuscitation by subjects, there were also statistically significant differences in such variables as 'have you ever heard about cardiopulmonary resuscitation' (t=2.269, p=.024), 'presence or absence of education of cardiopulmonary resuscitation' (t=3.541, p=.000) and 'experience of observing cardiopulmonary resuscitation' (t=8.118, p=,000). 4. Relation between the knowledge and the performance ability of cardiopulmonary resuscitation showed positive correlations as the more knowledge, the higher performance ability(r=.570, p=.000). Conclusion : Consequently, it was found that the knowledge and the performance ability of cardiopulmonary resuscitation by subjects were below the average and their levels of knowledge and performance ability were varied. Therefore, if 1 : 1 education with theory and practice considering knowledge and performance ability of each student in performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation education with college students is conducted, more lives can be saved by applying cardiopulmonary resuscitation not to be embarrassed when they encounter cardiac arrest case and contribute to the increase of survival of cardiac arrest patients.

Purpose: This study is undertaken from the standpoint of student-centered learning and theoretical paradigms that have developed in the business world and display conceptual affinities: the transfer of knowledge and training. Research design, data and methodology: Utilizing questionnaire surveys and multivariate data analysis are two research methodologies (CFA, SEM). Around 201 undergraduate students who were studying in Vietnam provided the data. Results: The results show importance of the faculty role in students' knowledge acquisition. The findings show that Ability to form a good relationship positively influences the development of competence. Additionally, neither ability to develop a good relationship nor learning drive or knowledge acquisition are significantly correlated with one another. The growth of competencies is positively impacted by the suitability of teaching approaches. Knowledge acquisition is favorably impacted by learning motivation, and knowledge acquisition in turn is positively impacted by competence development. Conclusions: Research has shown the important role of lecturers in students' knowledge acquisition. From this result, some implications related to lecturers are also given to help improve students' ability to acquire knowledge. Building good relationships with students (ready to answer questions, positive relationships) and good expertise will help increase learning motivation, ability to acquire knowledge as well as improve development for students.

In the context of knowledge sharing, network position has been a controversial subject. A central position in the network provides access to non-redundant knowledge, leading to more opportunities of knowledge sharing. On the other hand, as "bridging" relationships, its characteristics as a "weak tie" suggest innate lack of trust and reciprocity which is considered an impediment to share knowledge. This paper attempts to enlighten the underlying dynamic by examining the interaction between network centrality, motivation and ability in knowledge sharing. Furthermore, this paper examines the concept of knowledge sharing ability in depth by operationalizing the construct into three aspects: extensive and diverse knowledge, social media utilization ability and self-efficacy. The results show a partially supported three-way interaction, where the highest level of knowledge provision is reported when the employee has low network centrality, high autonomous motivation and high knowledge sharing ability, i.e. extensive and diverse prior knowledge. Though all models indicate strong associations between network centrality and knowledge sharing, this suggests an even greater power of motivation and ability that gives the strength to overcome unfavorable environments of peripheral position. Therefore, this paper offers an alternative explanation to the existing debate whether network centrality positively or negatively influences knowledge sharing.

The ability hypothesis about black-and-white Mary once enjoyed the status of the "received view." But its popularity has declined since then. There seem to be two reasons for this. One is Martine Nida-Rümeline criticism against the ability hypothesis, where he tries to show that what Mary learns upon release is more than a bunch of abilities. The other is Jason Stanley and Timothy Williamson's criticism. They argue that the abilities Mary acquires amount to "knowledge-how", which in turn is reduced to "knowledge-that." This essay aims to defend the ability hypothesis against these criticisms, and thereby restore the status of the ability hypothesis. As for the first criticism, it is argued that the kind of knowledge Mary acquires other than the abilities is "demonstrative knowledge," which not only poses no threat to physicalism, but also is orthogonal to phenomenal knowledge. As for the second criticism, it is argued that by ruling out "the ability to imagine experiences," the ability hypothesis can survive Stanley and Williamson's criticism.
