  • The purpose of this study is to explore the future direction of university liberal arts classes at a time when many educational institutions have returned to face-to-face instruction as social distancing related to COVID-19 has been eliminated. A survey was conducted with 187 college students who took a liberal arts class that included a combination of online and in-person classes. The results found that learners were generally satisfied with remote learning (87.8%). The reasons for this high level of satisfaction included sufficient comprehension of class content, systematic class progress, and the efficiency and convenience of learning in a remote environment. Satisfaction levels for in-person classes (66%) were relatively lower than those for remote classes, and this is reflected in the preference for class type. Among wholly in-person, wholly remote, and a combination of both, it was found that learners preferred remote classes the most (54.4%). When conducting in-person classes, instructors must devise a class plan that incorporates the advantages of online remote classes.

  • This study aims to explore college students' perception for offline class using the online platform Padlet as a tool in liberal arts class during the COVID-19 lockdown. Thirty seven students participated in the study, and quantitative and qualitative methods were used. The statistical results and analysis for open-ended questions are as follows; Firstly, the participants showed satisfaction as the highest variable followed by learning effect, then motivation but participation rated the lowest(p< .001). Secondly, there was statistical significance except participation depending on gender(p< .001). Female students felt higher satisfaction, learning effect, and motivation than male students. Thirdly, there was statistical significance between freshmen and senior depending on grade(p< .001). Freshmen felt higher satisfaction, participation, learning effect, and motivation than seniors. Fourthly, qualitative analysis showed participants felt positive about using Padlet as a education tool in offline class. Finally, the pedagogical implication and suggestions were discussed.

  • This study aims to provide an intellectual understanding of the problems of Liberal Arts, in the light of the philosophy of Derrida and Ricoeur. Especially, we consent to the 'Right to philosophy' in the thought of Derrida and to the 'Dialogism' in the philosphy of Ricoeur. According to Derrida, the Right to is linked to human rights. If human rights are important to students, the Right to philosophy is also essential for them. For we must apply the Right to philosophy in the Liberal arts. According to the philosophy of Ricoeur, the dialogism can be interpreted by the possibility of communication and the dialogical method. Dialogical method connects two often conflicting or different themes. We can say that it is somehow a discussion between different. This confrontation is to strike a balance between different perspectives. Anyway, thanks to the two themes, the Right to philosophy in Derrida and the dialogism in Ricoeur, Liberal Arts course will be enriching.

  • This paper examines the correlation between midterm and final evaluations using quantitative assessment data from an online liberal arts course titled "Software and Computational Thinking" over four semesters. The course was conducted through pre-recorded video lectures, and the same conditions were maintained throughout the four semesters. The study results showed that the course satisfaction rate in the final evaluations was lower than that in the midterm evaluations across all assessment items. This is likely because improvements based on student feedback from the midterm evaluations were not implemented within the same semester, and the rate of insincere responses increased in the final evaluations. Moreover, objective evaluation items such as "Adherence to Syllabus" and "Relevance of Lecture Content" showed a statistically significant correlation between midterm and final evaluations. However, for assessment items where subjective judgment, such as "Lecture Comprehension", is important, no significant consistency was observed between midterm and final evaluations over the four semesters. The evaluation of subjective assessment items is closely related to the perceived difficulty of the lectures by the students, and in engineering-related courses, this connection is even stronger. Therefore, in the case of liberal arts courses in engineering, where students from various majors are enrolled, it is natural that the perceived difficulty of the lectures differs among students as the course progresses, and that the change in perceived difficulty between the midterm and final evaluations also varies. As a result, it is understandable that there is a lack of consistency in subjective evaluation items between the midterm and final evaluations. These findings suggest that to enhance student satisfaction and maintain consistency in course evaluations throughout the semester in engineering liberal arts courses, it is necessary to design and operate the lectures with differentiated practical content tailored to the academic backgrounds of the students.

  • Computer-related OA lectures at the university mainly deal with the creation of word processing documents and presentations and spreadsheet documents. To use most of the course evaluation at the university will be evaluated by the subjective judgment about the satisfaction and the skills assessment of students. In this paper, we take a lecture given at the university of OA before and after the university students to self-diagnosis is to propose an survey. In addition, we would like to analyze more objectively the degree of use computer-related OA and the degree of improvement of computer skills by the proposed objective survey evaluate to students compare with students have acquired scores during the semester.

  • In those six kinds of diamine salt crystal of which their structures had already been determined up to date, commonly one molecule of diamine and two molecules of acid were combined; although the crystal of benzidine perchlorate, only one molecule each of benzidine and perchloric acid were combined. At the case of benzidine perchlorate, one molecule acts as the role of two molecules by coincidence of the center of symmetry point of both the lattice and molecule, and perchlorate ion is locating symmetrically between two -$NH_2$ groups of different benzidine molecule, therefore benzidine and acid could be combined together with 1:1 by mole ratio. When forming the salt with diamine and acid, the combining mole ratio would be determined in accordance with the relationship between the symmetry element that presented by the space group and the symmetry element of diamine salt melecule.

  • The significant liquid structure theory is extended to binary mixture, benzene-ethylenechloride system. The partition function, applicable throughout the temperature range in which Raoult's law is satisfied is derived. The thermodynamic quantities such as total and partial pressures, molar volumes and mixing entropies are calculated from the partition function at the temperatures $293.15^{\circ},\;323.14^{\circ}\;and\;357.15^{\circ}K.$ The theoretical values, thus calculated, are found to agree with the experimental data in the literatures.

  • This case study developed and operated "Fashion & Film" as a fashion-related liberal arts course. The class was designed to include fashion styles exhibitted in films, fashion-related PPL, fashion design through film, fashion images of movie characters, considering gender & color images expressed in movie costumes, and the history of western costumes and asian folk costumes in films. The class was counducted through various teaching methods, such as lectures, student's presentation of movie plots, and team discussions, which created a student-led class. The team presentations at the end of the term were intended to enhance the understanding of fashion through movies. The results of subjective lecture evaluation of "Fashion & Film" showed the most satisfaction with the communication with professor. Students said that it was good to understand fashion through film. They expressed a burden with the team project; however, they were satisfied with the team project outcomes. Students said that PowerPoint was used very effectively. On the other hand, there was an prevelent opinion that the content of PowerPoint and workbook did not match. To address this inconvenience, a textbook called "Fashion in Film" was published and used in the first semester of 2020. The multiple-choice evaluation showed that students were generally satisfied with the "Fashion & Film" class.
