This study conducted qualitative research through in-depth interviews on the diffusion process of Korean food in accordance with the length of residence of Chinese students in Korea. As the analysis method, the qualitative analysis method such as NVivo12.0 was used, and the analysis was performed through word frequency, word cloud, and coding matrix. The images of taste of Korean food were revealed as ‘Spicy’, ‘Sweet’, and ‘Light taste’ by both short-term Chinese residents and long-term Chinese residents. The long-term Chinese residents showed their dissatisfaction with the institutional food, and they also pointed out the importance of the matter of cooking for quick adaptation to life in Korea. The long-term Chinese residents also thought of Korean food as ‘High-fiber food’, and this was influenced by the ‘Less-oil’ cooking method of Korean food, which is different from the cooking method of Chinese food. The length of residence was used as a main variable of this study, and it was one of the factors having positive effects on the diffusion of Korean food and acculturation. It would be difficult to generalize the results because this study used the convenience sampling method and snowball sampling.

Based on Vygotskian sociocultural theory, this study aims to investigate the longitudinal changes in English as a second language (ESL) learning, especially on motivation and learner beliefs for two recent Korean immigrants to Toronto. For 10 months, the researcher interviewed the two participants who shared similarities in age, previous work experiences, and perceived socio-economic status. Their comments were tape-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed by using NVivo, a qualitative data analysis software program. The findings indicate that Korean immigrants' ESL learning motivation was comprised of six constructs: job motivation, communicative need, heuristic motivation, context-specific motivation, self-satisfactory motivation, and demotivation/amotivation. Despite the two participants' external similarities, their monthly changes in ESL learning motivation showed drastic differences. An L2 learner belief of the positive relation between English proficiency and increased job opportunity was identified as a major explanatory factor for this difference between the two participants. This study suggests that L2 learner's beliefs may function as mediational tools from the perspective of sociocultural theory, with the learner's belief influencing job motivation.

최근 정책적 지원에 힘입어 6차산업화 농특산품이 증가함에 따라 이들의 상품 경쟁력 제고를 위해 포장디자인의 개선이 절실히 요구된다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 6차산업화 농특산품의 문제점을 체계적으로 파악하고, 문제점 분석에 따른 개 선방안을 마련하는데 있다. 연구방법은 먼저, 국가기관의 공모전에 출품된 6차산업화 농특산품 41점을 대상으로 전문가 5 인이 포장디자인 평가의견을 기술하도록 요청하여 질문지를 수집하였고, 다음으로 사진촬영을 통해 이미지자료를 수집하 였으며, 마지막으로 질적 자료분석 소프트웨어인 Nvivo 11을 활용하여 6차산업화 농특산품의 문제점을 체계적으로 분석하 였다. 연구결과 6차산업화 농특산품 포장디자인의 문제점은 시각커뮤니케이션(50%)>법적표시사항(23%)>패키징(15%)>브 랜딩(12%)의 순으로 나타났다. 또한, 각 분야별로 세부항목들을 분석하여 문제점을 구체화 하였다. 그 결과를 근거로 각 분야별 개선방안을 도출하였다. 본 연구의 의의는 6차산업화 농식품의 포장디자인 문제점을 개선하는데 있어 실증적 근거 를 제시하였다는 점과 디자인분야에서 디자인 평가에 대한 비구조화된 자료들을 활용하여 질적 연구방법을 통해 구조화하 고, 논리적 분석을 할 수 있는 방법론을 제시하였다는 데 있다.
