Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of case-based learning application in human growth development classes on nursing students' problem-solving ability, self-directed learning ability, and academic self-efficacy. Methods : The research method was a self-report questionnaire before and after case-based learning for second-year nursing students who took the human growth development course at U University in K city. The collected data were statistically processed using SPSS WIN 21.0. Results : The results of the study showed that after case-based learning, problem-solving ability, self-directed learning ability, and academic self-efficacy were all significantly improved. In addition, as a result of examining the correlation between each variable after case-based learning, problem solving ability score and self-directed learning ability score (r=.54, ｐ<.01), and problem solving ability scores and academic self-efficacy scores (r=.44, ｐ<.01), were significantly correlated with self-directed learning ability scores and the academic self-efficacy reduction scores (r=.76, ｐ<.01). Conclusion : The results of this study suggested the need for various learning programs such as case-based learning to improve nursing students' problem-solving abilities and self-directed learning abilities and their application. In addition, to improve the learning self-efficacy of nursing students, a continuous and systematic study is suggested to develop and apply customized educational programs according to the learners' preferences. Since the sample group in this study was limited to one university, there were few cases and no control group, so there are limitations in generalizing the test effect, However, significant differences a were verified in the case-based learning pre-tests and post-tests.

The need for remanufacturing ships and various mechanical components continues to increase along with environmental problems. Research on remanufacturing is being carried out in various fields, but research on cleaning is quite insufficient. In particular, there is no research on the cleaning-ability of diverse mechanical components. In order to increase the life cycle of mechanical components, remanufacturing must be considered from the step of design. Particularly, it is also very important to evaluate the degree of easiness in cleaning to remove various pollutants generated by long-term use quickly as well as easily. In this study, the degree of easiness in cleaning is defined as cleaning-ability. In fact, remanufacturing components can be easily done only when cleaning-ability is set high from the step of design. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cleaning-ability of ships and various mechanical components. The details of easiness in cleaning are cleaning and drying identification, accessibility to cleaning tools, convenience in cleaning, and convenience in drying. This study presents a quantitative procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability, derived various factors influencing each of the details of easiness and their ranges, and gave scores to the factors according to their ranges. The weight was also calculated for the details of easiness in cleaning and the factors. Lastly, this researcher suggests a scoring procedure to evaluate cleaning-ability quantitatively and the total weight of cleaning-ability.

Background: The purpose of this study was to present a practical method of medical treatment to improve the balance and motor ability of the mentally retarded child with a single mentally retarded child-subject. Methods: The subject of the study was a 39-month-old mentally retarded female. This study included a 2-week basic period and a 13-week treatment period. The treatment method was based on the Bobath Approach. Gross motor function measurement (GMFM) was used to examine changes in motor ability, and the Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS) was used to measure changes in balance ability. The curative program was composed of normalization of muscle tone, strengthening of leg endurance and muscular strength, the improvement of trunk alignment, and the increase of balance. Visual rate of change was used to examine the results. Results: As a result of this study, balance ability increased on the Pediatric Balance Scale (PBS) by 24 points, and motor function increased in terms of Gross Motor Function Measurement (GMFM) by 6.9% (18 points). Standing increased by 41% (16 points), and walking, running, and jumping increased by 31.9% (23 points) compared to thebasic period. Therefore, the Bobath Approach appears to be an appropriate method to improve balance and motor ability in mentally retarded children. Conclusion: It is surmised that aggressive intervention by physical therapists and occupational therapists, and a follow-up study, are required for the growth of motor ability in mentally retarded children.
