The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of EarthComm implementation in the U.S. high schools in terms of demographic background including school size, urban/rural area, and teachers' teaching experiences. In addition, this study examined impact of students' higher-order thinking skills by using the visions of National Science Education Standards. Two modular of the EarthComm curriculum were used for this purpose with thirty one teachers and around thousand students involved across four states. Findings were that EarthComm did not significantly impact student achievement differentially in schools of varying sizes and school location, i.e., urban and rural areas. The years of teaching experiences did not impact student achievement scores for Module I but did significantly impact for Module II. It is noted that the two results seemingly conflict with each other similar to other research findings (Ferguson, 1998; Yager et al., 1988). Student higher-order thinking skills, on the other hand, were significantly improved as a result of studying with EarthComm. Implications were discussed at the end of the paper.

Purpose: This is a phenomenological study to describe the experiences of nursing students on home visiting nursing service as a community nursing practice. Method: Individual interviews were conducted on subjective experiences of 17 nursing students. Data were analyzed through Colaizzi's method in which meaningful statements were extracted and these were clustered into 6 themes. Result: The nursing students started practice with anxiety and expectation at the same time. They were frightened at the clients' inferior environment and their level of loneliness. They also felt pity and experienced complicated feelings for the clients. However, the home visiting practice was a chance for them to discard prejudice on the clients. Positive experiences on visiting nursing practice reported by the nursing students included lively interactions between nurses and the clients, and variable provision of primary nursing care. However, facts such as much limited visiting time, non-professional and limited scope of practice were reported as negative experiences. They felt both worthiness of the home visit service and restricted self-capability at the same time through the practice. They also felt sorry for the clients because the home visit services were carried out during limited time period. Regardless of this, the home visit experience provided them an opportunity of self-growth. This self-growth includes increased awareness of issues for elderly, building of self-identity as a nursing student, self-reflection, and realization of the value of family. Conclusion: This study may provide data for better understanding of nursing students experiences of home visiting nursing services. However, more study on the barriers of their community health practice is needed in the future. Moreover, it is needed to establish desirable practice environment through the collaborative relationships between the university and staffs in the public health center.

This study investigated student engagement of STEM-specialized higher education institutions in comparison with students from humanities & social science and STEM majors, respectively. By doing so, the study aimed to find the effects of the characteristics of STEM disciplines and organizational culture of STEM-specialized small-sized institutions on student engagement. The students majoring STEM disciplines, regardless of the organizational types, showed lower reflective-integrative learning experiences compared to students on humanities & social science disciplines. In contrast, students of STEM-specialized institutions reported significantly higher levels of peer relationship and student-faculty interaction in comparison with humanities & social science students and STEM students of general higher education institutions. Finally, the study suggests policy implications for STEM education.

이 글은 2010년대에 이루어진 1990년대와 2010년대의 학생운동 경험 구술을 대상으로, 각 구술에서 '우리'가 그려지는 양상의 차이와 그 차이를 만들어낸 배경으로 2010년대의 조건이 만들어낸 일상적 경험의 누적을 주목한다. 2010년대에 채록된 1990년대 학생운동 경험에 관한 구술에서 두드러지는 것은 당시의 학생운동 문화에 대한 거리감이다. 1990년대에 대학 생활을 경험한 구술자들의 말 속에서 당시 대학의 학생운동 문화는 사적 관계를 타고 이루어지며 굳이 설명할 필요도 없이 '자연스러운' 것으로 여겨졌는데, 동시에 그 '자연스러움'은 그것이 구술되고 있는 2010년대의 맥락에서는 '부자연'스럽거나 '이상한' 것으로 이야기되며 현재의 구술자와는 일정한 거리감을 지닌 경험으로 의미화되었다. 이러한 양상은 90년대의 경험이 2010년대에 구술되고 있는 조건과 결부되어있다. 구술자들에게 과거의 경험을 구술하는 '현재'는 '촛불' 이후 이자 '강남역' 이후로 설명되었고, 그 이전과는 질적으로 다른 세계인 듯 묘사되며 자신의 과거 경험으로부터 비판적 거리를 발생케 한 계기로서 위치했다. 균질한 '우리'를 의심케 하는 이 질적 변화는 무엇보다 한국사회에서 젠더 이슈가 가장 커다란 화두였던 2010년대 중반 이후를 살며 새로이 체득된 젠더적 감각에 기반을 둔다. 2010년대의 사회운동 경험에 관한 구술에서는 '우리'의 구성이 더 이상 어떤 공통성을 공유하는 이들의 공동체가 아니라 수많은 다름에도 불구하고 결집한 개인들과 같이 이해된다. 그리하여 2010년대의 학생운동 구술은 이런 것을 이미 일상의 감각으로 체화한 이들의 경험이 드러난다. 이들이 구성한 '우리'는 사적 관계와는 무관하거나 무관해야 하는 것이었고, 동질성이 가장 두드러진 집단으로 여겨지지도 않았으며, 그래서 시위 당시와 그 자리 바깥에서까지의 '나'를 설명할 수 있는 무엇도 아니었다. 관련 경험이 내내 조심스러운 태도로 구술되었던 것도 그런 맥락에서였다. 이는 결국 '학생운동', 나아가 사회운동과 '우리'로 결집하는 감각을 새로이 질문하고 이해해야 할 필요성을 제기한다. 운동의 주체가 과연 '누구'인가를 묻는 일의 효용을 질문한다. 곧, 운동에서 고정된 '우리'라는 정체성을 규정하는 일의 필요성과 의미를 질문한다. 그리하여, 어떤 고정된 위치나 좌표가 과연 누군가의 입장을 대변할 수 있는 것인가를 질문한다.

Purpose: This phenomenological analysis was conducted to explore the experiences of college student volunteers in the field of pediatric palliative care. Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted with nine study participants who had experience volunteering with children receiving pediatric palliative care. The study analysis was conducted using the Colaizzi method, a rigorous qualitative research method, to develop "intra-group" comparisons among the study participants. Results: Through an analysis of the data, 51 themes, 18 theme clusters, and five main categories were derived. The results confirmed that the experience of university student volunteers in pediatric palliative care can be summarized as "awareness of the role of a volunteer," "difficulties encountered while volunteering," "efforts to overcome the difficulties of volunteer work," "personal reflection," and "awareness of life and death." Conclusion: The results of this study can be used as a practical guide for the effective management of volunteers in the pediatric palliative care setting.

The study aimed to understand medical students' experiences of emotional changes, including their method of adapting to experiences, and the effect of the experiences in shaping their identities. We interviewed 12 medical students who were finishing their 1-year clinical internship in 2016. Data on their opinions and reasons for emotional changes during their school life were obtained. The descriptive phenomenological approach was applied to analyze the interviews. Their stress came from disappointment in themselves, competitive environment, observing a change in their personalities, meeting their parents' expectations, and interpersonal relations. The interviewees adjusted to the medical study by exercising self-control in their studies and daily lives, by practicing self-acceptance and observing their state of mind, and by breaking free from the competition-driven environment and obsession with grades. In addition, they cultivated endurance and found external support. Finally, they achieved self-efficacy and were comfortable in their identity as medical students. They still had to address the stress from working relationships and the difficulty in balancing studies and life. The medical students' self-evaluation and compulsive tendencies increased during the medical course due to the burden of studies. They evolved by learning self-control and introspection and seeking ways to adapt. Understanding this growth process of medical students will improve student support in medical schools.
