The purpose of this study is to verify the effect by developing and applying a new program for improvement of creative problem solving ability and collaborative ability. Development of a sewing practice program was performed through the ADDIE model. The subjects of the study were 1^st grade middle school students and the research plan of the study was pretest-posttest control group design. The study method was performed by mixing the quantitative and qualitative analysis methods. Results of this study are as follows. First, the students in the experimental group showed higher creative problem solving ability than the students in the control group, but the difference was not significant at the 5% significance level. Qualitative analysis results indicated that creative problem solving ability is closely related to learning experiences involving the 'generation of diverse ideas', 'rebirth of creative ideas', 'self-directed learning plan', 'active problem solving', 'immediate feedback'. Second, the students in the experimental group showed a significantly higher level of collaborative ability than the students in the control group. This demonstrated that the program developed in this study had an effect on fostering the collaborative ability of middle school students. It was found that collaborative ability is closely related to learning experiences involving 'forming a positive atmosphere', 'continuous interaction', and 'working together'.

As the issue of reducing greenhouse gases is emerging due to global warming and extreme weather, research on materials capable of radiative cooling without energy consumption is being actively conducted. Among them, silk is known as a natural self-cooling material, but in the conventional mixing process using chemically powdered silk, there is a problem that the radiative cooling effect disappears by the collapses of the intrinsic crystal structure of silk fibroin, so it is difficult to manufacture it in the form of a film or coating agent for radiative cooling. In this study, various types of membranes were manufactured using silk powder that went through a physical pulverization process that does not damage the intrinsic structure of silk fibroin, and the study was conducted to examine its applicability as a coating agent. Electrospun membranes and flat sheet membranes were prepared by using silk fibroin powder for this purpose, and it was observed that the viscosity of the solution had a significant effect on the membrane fabrication and its properties.

The present study was conducted to determine a feasible method of protein concentrate extraction from rice bran (RBPC) and its effect as a substitution for skim milk in early weaning pig diets. An investigation to extract protein concentrate from full fat rice bran was undertaken to determine the best ratio of water and rice bran, the amount of NaOH and a HCl solvent to use in a simple paddle-type mixer with modified spinning to produce RBPC. The results stated that the best ratio for water mixing in the RBPC extraction process was 1:5 with 20 g NaOH and 30 min in a paddle-type mixer at 300 rpm. A mix of 250 ml 0.2 N HCl was optimum for neutralization and protein precipitation. After the fluid was spun out with a washing machine, the sediment was left for 12-14 hours to complete the filtration. One kilogram of rice bran could produce an average of 324.5 gram RBPC and it contained 3.40% ash, 496.48 kcal of GE/100 gram, 1.94% crude fiber, 28.20% ether extract, 7.64% moisture and 16.66% crude protein, respectively. A total of 45 crossbred piglets, weaned at 3 weeks of age were allotted into control diet (A) and dietary treatments formulated with a four different rates of RBPC substitution for skim milk at a percentage of 25 (B), 50 (C), 77 (D) and 100 (E) respectively, in a randomized complete block (RCB) design. All piglets had free access to feed and water until 8 week of age when the experiment ended. Feed intake, average daily gain, growth rate and feed efficiency were not affected by dietary treatments. Blood test parameters after completion of the growth trial indicated normal health. Even though the mean of cell hemoglobin concentration was significantly different between treatments (p<0.05) it was still within the normal range. The cost difference for BW gain of 100% RBPC substituted for skim milk in the weaning diet was approximately 35% lower than that of the control and the relative cost of production was 96.67, 92.85, 70.75 and 64.48% lower for the replacement of 25, 50, 75 and 100% of skim milk respectively. These results implied that this technology is feasible for use by small scale farmers to improve their self-reliance.

The characteristics of $CO_2$ fixation by Chlorella HA-1 cultured in bubble columns were studied to achieve high photosynthetic rates per basal area. The influence of experimental conditions such as the diameter of a bubble column and gas flow rate, on photosynthesis of Chlorella HA-1 was investigated. The maximum productivity and the overall $CO_2$ fixation rate obtained in a 0.15 L bubble column was 1.09 g dry biomassa-day and 1048 g CO$_2/\m^2$-day, respectively. Light limitation has been observed in the bubble columns having a diameter larger than 3.5 cm.. As the reactor volume increased, the decrease of the $CO_2$ fixation rate was remarkable. High gas flow rate was helpful to mitigate the light limitation problem.

Flipped learning is a new learning technique which can maximize the learning effect by mixing two or more different learning environments including online & offline, and recently introduced system: 'Google classroom' is the optimized internet platform for flipped learning. This study tried to apply flipped learning to regular course 2nd grade dental students(n=70) and evaluated the satisfaction of students. The subjects of periodontology and operative dentistry were chosen to evaluate flipped learning model for regular course 2nd grade dental students(n=70). Each class consisted of six classes, and three times of them were performed in conventional classes and the other three times were in flipped learning method by using Google classroom. Evaluation of satisfaction progressed at the end of class. In this study, application of flipped learning in the dental college classes showed high efficiency in terms of degree of understanding, self-directed learning and motivation. Collectively, it was shown that flipped learning using Google classroom can be a reliable platform in dental classes.
