Higher education institutions are facing increased national and international competition for research talent and research funds (OECD, 2009). The best way for a university to react to this situation is to foster its reputation. Not only for firms (Raithel & Schwaiger, 2015), but also for universities, reputation is one of the most valuable intangible assets (Albers, 2015). Therefore, this study investigates the drivers of business school reputation as perceived by academics. The impact of the following potential drivers is analyzed in this study: research performance, third-party research funds and standing of professors within the academic community. We used the variable research reputation from the business school ranking of the Centrum für Hochschulentwicklung (CHE) as a proxy for reputation. In addition, also the variable sum of third-party funds was available from the CHE dataset. Furthermore, we measured professors’ standing in the academic community by considering if they are outstanding members in the two major German research communities and if they are in the editorial board of one of the A+ or A ranked journals according to the vhb-jourqual ranking. Moreover, we measured research performance by means of the score of the faculty achieved in the Handelsblatt Rankings Faculties as well by means of the publication output per faculty member. Besides, the previous score of the CHE ranking was included to control for path dependency of reputation (Gray & Balmer, 1998). As additional control variables, the size of the business school, the research reputation of the host university (measured as the number of Nobel-price winners from the university) and the size of the city (measured by the number of inhabitants) were used. Research performance as measured by the Handelsblatt Ranking accounts for 31% of current reputational assessment. The influence of third-party funds as well as professors’ standing within the academic community could not be confirmed. Moreover, city size was found to be correlated to reputation. The obvious explanation would be that large cities are able to attract better researchers (be it for quality of life or because universities in large cities offer more attractive compensation schemes), which in turn leads to a higher research productivity – an important driver for academics’ reputational assessments of a business school.

The paper’s proposition is that Mexican public universities potentiate social oriented activity for gsed purposes while agents in Knowledge and Innovation Networking. But they must comply with the structural restrictions of communicative action. The aim is to present communication principles for Knowledge and Innovation Networking (KIN) that promotes Green Sustainable Economic Development (gsed) in Latin American societies, characterized by heterogeneous cultural traits and varied levels of economic and political development, within countries themselves and between them. Prime gsed issues are the preservation of natural resources considering their use and enjoyment by the coming generations, the right to material progress of developing countries as well as the obligation of developed economies to reduce their energy consumption (raw energy and processed commodities). However, the validity of any gsed model is questionable unless it is coherent in terms of what gsed is considered both locally and globally, thus the relevance of networking for knowledge and innovation (see Hidalgo 2011), integrated with regional, national and international innovation systems. How can Knowledge and Innovation Networking (kin) increase university participation in the promotion of gsed? This is a question that this paper aims to answer and provide some strategies to increase participation and contribution to gsed. Knowledge and innovation networks are environments for participation of key social groups where concurrence protocols ease both lawfulness and transparency regarding market issues (global, regional and local) and sustainable development. On-line kin interactions implementation are insufficient for gsed, but will provide participants (state, business, universities and individuals) favorable environments for coordinated actions that represent added value to each and all participants with a reduced hierarchical control because the overall purpose is redefinition of gsed principles that meaningful taking into consideration each participant’s condition.

With the effect that the Yipsu-ryong(入首龍) of Ju-san(主山) influenced on the layout in the view of geomantic topography(形勢), how Ahn-san(案山) affected the layout plan of the Korean academics of classical learning(書院) is researched. And how the 『Jirisinbeob(地理新法)』which had been written by Ho-sun-sin(胡舜申) was applied to the Korean academics of classical learning in the view of Li and Ch'i(理氣) is studied. In Fengshui, the method to pick out a site and to confirm the direction for building construction was divided into two, one of them was 'the geomantic topography', which included 'Ju-san following type(主山順應形)', 'Ahn-san stressing type(案山重視形)' and 'Ju-san & Ahn-san complex type(主·案山混合形)'. And the other is the 'Rule of direction(向法)'. The Korean academics of classical learning was applied by the geomantic topography of Fengshui for its layout and direction, regardless of political, regional and period factors. So when the Sa-rim(士林) needed to set direction for the Korean academics of classical learning, the ground that was appropriate to the geomantic topography of Fengshui was selected. Therefore, the Sa-rim who was abused in Neo-Confucianism had a mind of stressing geomantic topography of Fengshui and they applied it positively for building construction.

Through investigating the effects that result from the form and preference of Ahnsan (案山) and Jusan(主山) symbolizing ground in the cases of 21 of the Korean Academics for classical learning which called Seowon(書院) located in South Korea of the whole 47, to layout the Korean Academics for classical learning, what factor Sarim(士林) preferred to and how they analyzed the form of circumjacent mountains by Fengshui. While the Jusan has intrinsic attribute due to connecting with the place, Hyuljang(穴 場) , the Ahnsan has public and extrovert. It can be explained that the Sarim who established the Korean Academics for classical learning had their internal hope and external justification. To put it concretely, because of their necessity of concentrating on their study within nature and their situation as hermits apart from government through long time, they made the Korean Academics for classical learning stable and satisfactory. Therefore, they had to choose Moogocksung(武曲星) as a Jusan. And their study was essential method to take their justification. And It was attractive for them to be a public officer by their study. So they preferred to Moonpilbong(文筆峯) symbolizing their achievements on their study. So the layout of the Korean Academics for classical learning tells us that the Sarim sought internal stability and external scholarship.

최근 한국 사회에 거주하는 다문화 가정의 수가 꾸준히 증가하고 있다. 이들은 한국에 정착하는 과정에서 언어적 문제, 그중에서 특히 한국어 발음․억양 문제로 인해 많은 어려움을 겪게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 신뢰할 만한 교육 과정 마련과 더불어 이들을 위한 체계적인 행정적 지원이 필요하다. 그러나 아직까지 이들을 위한 교육 과정이 운영되는 사례가 많지 않다. 이는 실제 교육 과정을 설계하고 운영하려고 할 때 신뢰하여 참고할 만한 모델이 없기 때문이다. 이러한 상황에서 본 연구는 선행 연구를 정리하여 다문화 구성원을 위한 한국어 발음과 억양 교육의 범위와 내용을 밝히고, 부산 B대학의 보이스트레이닝 아카데미 프로그램의 사례를 분석하였다. 이 연구는 추후 교육 현장에서 다문화 구성원을 위한 한국어 발음․억양 교육과정 설계, 운영 시 참고할 수 있는 기초 자료를 제공하였다는 데 의의가 있다.

이 연구는 초·중등 교육의 연계가 잘 이루어지기 위해서는 초등 및 중등 교원양성기관 교수의 연구 협력이 선행되어야 한다는 문제의식 아래, 그들의 연구 협력 실태를 분석하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 연구 실적 중 ‘학술지 논문’으로 분석 대상의 범위를 한정하고 24개의 한국연구재단 등재 학술지의 최근 3년간(2010년～2012년) 발표된 논문 총 3,058편 중에서 교대 및 사대 교수가 저자로 참여한 연구 논문 1,668편을 수집하였다. 분석 결과, 교대 및 사대 교수들은 단독 연구에 비해 협력 연구를 더 많이 수행하였고, 협력 연구의 경우 교수들 간 이루어지기보다 대학원생이나 교육공무원과 협력하는 비율이 더 높았다. 한편 교장(리더십), 연구동향, 학부모 및 지역사회 등 특정 연구주제에서 협력 연구의 비율이 높게 나타났다. 분석 결과를 토대로 연구의 시사점을 제시하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현재 교대 및 사대 교수들은 주로 교육공무원이나 대학원생과 공동 연구를 하는 추세이며 추후 교대 및 사대 교수 상호 간 협력 연구가 더 장려될 필요가 있다. 둘째, 특정 주제에 관한 협력 연구가 원활히 이루어지도록 연구자 개인 차원에서의 노력 뿐 아니라 기관 차원에서의 적극적인 지원 방식이 고려될 필요가 있다. 기존의 선행 연구에서 대학 교수들의 연구 협력에 대한 실태 파악이 거의 이루어진 바 없다는 점에서 이 연구는 연구 성과 향상 방안 등 추후 연구의 기초 자료로서 의의가 크다. 이 연구 결과가 의미 있게 활용되기 위해서는 단순 실태 분석을 넘어 그 현상의 원인이 무엇인지에 대한 후속 연구가 심층적으로 이루어질 필요가 있다.
