Background: The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effect of life satisfaction and moderating effect of physical activity on the effect of adolescents' perceived positive parenting on depressed. In addition, the present study explores the role of life satisfaction and physical activity in the relationship between adolescents' perceived positive parenting and depressed, which may help in the reduction and control of adolescent depressed. Design: This study utilizes data from the 2021 Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey. Methods: First, positive parenting attitudes have a significant positive effect on life satisfaction. Second, life satisfaction has a significant negative effect on depressed. Third, life satisfaction has a mediating effect on the relationship between positive parenting and depressed. Fourth, physical activity has a significant negative effect on depressed. Fifth, physical activity has a moderating effect on the relationship between life satisfaction and depressed. Finally, this study confirmed the mediating effect of life satisfaction and moderating effect of physical activity on the relationship between positive parenting attitudes and depressed. Conclusion: This study confirmed that life satisfaction and physical activity are positive resources for depressed in adolescents. Therefore, a system that promotes a positive outlook on life and voluntary physical activity is necessary to prevent and overcome depressed. In addition, it shows the need for arts and physical education as well as entrance examination-oriented subjects in the curriculum. The results of this study may provide a basis for the therapeutic approach of mental health physiotherapy in the treatment of adolescent depressed.

This study examined the physical activity and dietary patterns of university students in Nairobi County and compared to their weight status. The study was a cross-sectional analytical design with a sample of 260 undergraduate students randomly selected from two private and two public universities. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to gather information from students. Students weight and height measurements were also obtained. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 22. The study results showed that 53.5% of the students met the recommended levels of moderate physical activity and 18.8% of the students met the recommended levels of vigorous physical activity. Majority of the students consumed fast foods sweetened beverages and pastries most times in a week. The study also showed that 31.2% of the students were overweight and 6.2% were obese. The study reveals that most students did not achieve the recommended levels of vigorous physical activity and showed some poor dietary patterns. Findings show clear evidence of high prevalence of overweight among university students but focus should be on fitness rather than fatness. Efforts should be made to promote physical activity participation and good dietary practices within university environments.

This study was to explore perceived difficulties from before entrance into physical education in graduate school of education to before graduation. Participants were PETE graduate students in Seoul and Gyeonggi province and survey was used to collect data. Among 100 copies of data, 95 copies had been used for actual data processing. Frequency analysis was conducted by using SPSS 21.0. The results are as follows. First, participants had trouble in financial difficulty before entering graduate school, but the financial difficulty was considered normal by other new difficulties. Second, much time spent for graduate school of education was considered one of biggest difficulties, but the burden of curriculum was relatively low. Third, anxiety about future career that started from before entering graduate school lasted until graduation. Fourth, lack of knowledge was considered as one of biggest troubles before graduation. Conclusively, physical education in graduate schools need to develop career education as well as evaluation system for the qualitative growth.

In this paper, we propose an effective software education donation model for the social care class. The types of software education for elementary, middle, and high school for the social care class are in the order of after school classes, club activities, creative experiences, and regular classes. In elementary school students, it is effective to precede visual programming education based on block coding and to conduct curriculum convergence with SW and HW at the beginning, and high school students are carrying out text programming education like Python. Software education for social care class The contribution activity model can be classified into five types such as geographically difficult area, multicultural family areas, orphanage, reformatory, and basic livelihood security recipient. In addition, the survey results show that the students' interest in software education and their satisfaction are all very high at 96%. Effective software education for the social care class In the donation model, the lecturers consist of responsible professors, lecturers, and assistant instructors. Software training for the social care class is effective on a year-by-year basis, so that students can feel authenticity and trust. Software education contents focus on visual programming and physical computing education in elementary or middle school, and text programming and physical computing education in high school. It is necessary to construct a software education donor matching system that helps efficient management of software education donations by efficiently matching schools (consumers: elementary, middle, high school) and software education donors(suppliers).

The purpose of this study was to examine the change of wellness health awareness among 168 university students od D city participating in sports physical fitness class. Wellness health awareness was surveyed using Korean Wellness Questionnaire (KWLS) and the collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistical analysis, reliability analysis, and two-way ANOVA depending on the research purpose. The results showed that the wellness health awareness of university students did not show statistically significant interaction effect between gender and class(before and after class), but differences between gender and enforcement factors were significant in some sub - area). Based on these results, it is necessary to provide intensive health management class to university students for the solution of positive change of well-being health awareness besides various physical education class by each university.

Most of the experimental tools currently used are applied to experiments in the physical field by utilizing sensors and only MBL that are suitable for specific experiments have been developed. However, There is no experimental design stage using SW fusion, and there is a limit to the application of various chemistry experiments in textbooks, and in the case of Arduino, it is difficult for students to learn and understand language when programming. In this paper, we designed and developed a SW education convergence science experiment apparatus including a learner's active experiment design process, overcoming the shortcomings of the existing microcomputer experiment and the limitations of software education.

This study is a complex type consisting of survey study and self-study. The former investigated elementary teachers' epistemological beliefs on convergence knowledge and teaching. As a representative of the result of survey study I, as a teacher as well as a researcher, was the participant of the self-study, which investigated my epistemological belief on convergence knowledge and teaching and my execution of convergent science teaching based on family resemblance of mathematics, science, and physical education. A set of open-ended written questionnaires was administered to 28 elementary teachers. Participating teachers considered convergent teaching as discipline-using or multi-disciplinary teaching. They also have epistemological beliefs in which they conceived convergence knowledge as aggregation of diverse disciplinary knowledge and students could get it through their own problem solving processes. As a teacher and researcher I have similar epistemological belief as the other teachers. During the self-study, I tried to apply convergence knowledge system based on the family resemblance analysis among math, science, and PE to my teaching. Inter-disciplinary approach to convergence teaching was not easy for me to conduct. Mathematical units, ratio and rate were linked to science concept of velocity so that it was effective to converge two disciplines. Moreover PE offered specific context where the concepts of math and science were connected convergently so that PE facilitated inter-disciplinary convergent teaching. The gaps between my epistemological belief and inter-disciplinary convergence knowledge based on family resemblance and the cases of how to bridge the gap by my experience were discussed.

This study aims to develop the education for college students who should perform the social role of the fut ure by conducting trekking activities including the characteristics, history, and culture of Cheonan area and then investigating the sociality and history of 36 college students. Taejosan, Seonggeosan, and Heukseongsan, which are part of the independent ring of Cheonan city, were selected as courses. The training was conducted by six instructors majoring in humanities, history, physical education and medicine. Teachers of humanities and history majors conducted theoretical lectures to raise the historical awareness of Cheonan area related to trekking course. In trekking practice, instructors of physical education and medicine majored in trekking safety education and course progress. Among the social development factors, responsibility, autonomy, and sociality were high. After the education, students recognized that the interest and necessity of history were high in order to understand the present society, thought that they made a lot of development compared to the previous one, and answered that the main development factors of history were the people and that there was a change in perception through this education. This study was composed of the survey after the education, so the psychological characteristics of the individual were not reflected, and it is difficult to generalize it because the number of subjects is small. In the future, more subjects need to be investigated and local residents need to investigate changes in local awareness.

This paper presents automatic generation of robot motion using posture template in physical training system. In this system, we define a human-like generic template with two angles, then, we generate robot motion that has used angle data of the created template. The angle data is transformed automatically to the most similar motion. This is achieved by suitable expressions for robot specification. The expressions intend to differences of angle measurement on X,Y,Z planes and DOF constraint. We choose several postures and create generic templates for chosen postures. Robot motions are also generated from generic templates by expressions.
