Purpose: This study aims to identify the degree of intention to hand hygiene and hand hygiene behavior in new nurses based on education experience on infection control. Method: The participants comprised 108 new nurses working in a general hospital in S city, Korea. Data were collected from September to December, 2020. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson correlation with SPSS 26.0 program. Results: There were statistically significant differences in intention to hand hygiene (F=3.39, p=.021) and hand hygiene behavior (F=3.33, p=.022) depending on education experience related to infection control during undergraduate courses. Hand hygiene intention (F=4.41, p=.008) and hand hygiene behavior (F=4.13, p=.008) showed statistically significant differences depending on educational satisfaction with infection control during undergraduate courses. There were significant positive correlations between intention to hand hygiene and hand hygiene behavior (r=.21, p=.026). Conclusion: This suggests that education in infection control can reinforce intention to hand hygiene and hand hygiene behavior in new nurses.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary education on undergraduate student’s health, environment, and consideration. A total of 54 participants were recruited from an undergraduate student in Seoul. We conductive quantitative analysis of a structured questionnaire and qualitative analysis of interviews recorded by photovoice. There are significant differences among knowledge, dietary attitude, and food behavior in the field of health (p<0.001). In the field of health, photovoice data were categorized as ‘health care practice’, ‘Korean dietary lifestyles’, or ‘awareness of importance of health’ (p<0.001). In the field of environment, photovoice data were categorized as ‘environment-friendly dietary lifestyle’ and ‘environmental contamination minimization’(p<0.001). In the field of consideration, photovoice data were categorized as ‘gratitude for others’, ‘joy of cooking’or ‘eating meals together’(p<0.01). In conclusion, we found that dietary education about health, environment, and consideration may affect healthy dietary lifestyle among undergraduate students. Our findings may warrant further studies to develop significantly effective dietary education for undergraduate students.

As a preliminary study for the effective development of a genre-focused English learner corpus, this article aims to investigate most frequent error types and their frequencies in English emails written by undergraduate freshmen in South Korea. Data for this study include English emails of 86 Korean students majoring in humanities or social science in a university located in Daegu. With the rise of Internet, ESL/EFL education has witnessed a growing interest in teaching email usage in composition courses, as it provides a variety of opportunities to evaluate language abilities including interpersonal and pragmatic abilities. The present article revealed that the most frequent error type was concerned with style, such as capitalization (28.7%) and punctuation (7.8%), which was followed by determiner deletion (6.3%), genre convention such as closing (3%), countability of nouns (3%), and verb choice (2.7%). Different error types and frequencies were identified according to different English proficiency levels (Korean SAT and TOEIC), which evidenced the need to include the English proficiency level annotation in the corpus design and to focus on different types of errors in class in accordance with learners’ proficiency levels.

이 연구는 대학의 ‘교양음악’ 교과를 통한 ‘인성교육’에 관한 것이다. 인성교육에 대한 시대적 요 구는 2015 ‘인성교육진흥법’ 제정(制定)에 이르렀고, 이는 교육의 현장에서도 인성교육에 대한 국가 적·사회적 요구를 즉각적으로 수용해 반영하지 않을 수 없게 된 것을 뜻한다. 이 같은 시각에서, 본 연구의 화두(話頭)는 ‘교양 교과목으로서 음악을 통한 인성교육은 어떤 의미이고, 또 어떠한 방 향성이 제시될 수 있는가?’하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 우선, 인성교육에 대한 정부의 목표와 교육정책의 측면에서 ‘대학 인성교육의 필 요성’을 고찰함으로, 국가적·사회적 차원에서 교양음악을 통한 인성교육의 의의를 돌아본다. 둘째, 대학에서의 인성교육이 일차적으로 교양교육을 통해 이루어져야 한다는 전제 아래, 대학교육과 인성 교육의 상관성 및 음악교육과 인성교육의 상관성들을 다룬 국내 학술연구들의 선행연구를 통해 ‘인 성교육’에 대한 연구 경향을 파악한다. 이로써 ‘대학 인성교육 연구’에 대한 학문적 요구를 조명한다. 셋째, 인성교육의 ‘개인적-상호적-사회적 측면’에 입각한 ‘교양음악’을 통한 대학 인성교육의 교육 목 표를 세운다. 그러므로 우리나라 지방거점대학 10곳과 영국의 대학평가기관인 THE(Times Higher Education)가 선정한 ‘2015-2016 세계대학평가’ 상위 800위권 내에 속한 우리나라 대학 24개교를 포함해 총 28개 대학을 중심으로, 각 대학에 개설되어 있는 음악 관련 교양 교과목들의 현황 분석 을 통해 인성교육을 현실화하기 위한 교과로서 ‘교양음악’의 가능성과 문제점을 타진한다. 마지막으 로, 이를 통해 합리적이고, 효과적인 대학 인성교육을 위한 ‘교양음악’이 나아가야 할 방향성에 대해 제시한다.

One of major education process flaws in the Lembaga Pendidikan Tenaga Kependidikan (LPTK) or Teacher Training Institute in Indonesia is portrayed in the implementation of the Program Pengalaman Lapangan (PPL) or Apprentice Program that has not optimally developed candidate’s proficiency to be competent teachers. Therefore, this research is intended to construct a teaching and learning model of practical teaching that can improve pedagogical competence as the ultimate goal to be achieved by future teacher candidates. The main subjects of this study were undergraduate students of the Elementary School Teacher Education program conducting their PPL in Indonesia University of Education and Lampung University. Based on the analysis of Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, on the level of significance of 95% (α = 0,05), the model produced from the research and development process and called theModel Pembelajaran Praktik Mengajar Reflektif (MP2MR) was verified to help improve students competence based on the following benefits,(a) teaching and learning and evaluation designs focused on standardized achievements (b) individual and contextual implementation of problem-solving based process of teaching and learning, and (c) priority to intrinsic evaluation.

In this paper, I discuss how to organize the syllabus of 'Practice in teaching Korean' course, which is one of the obligatory courses for the undergraduate Korean language education major students. Among other courses, 'Practice in teaching Korean' is a practical class in which the students visit the real class and also practice the real teaching skill. This course includes forming syllabus program, visiting an actual class, teaching exercise and lecture simulation. Currently, the demand for the professional Korean teachers is increasing gradually. At this point, it would be a meaningful work to look closely into teaching plans of the same course in many other Korean Departments, and to point out some critical issues on the basis of this research. In this paper we strongly propose that the importance of the practical excercise should not be neglected. Also, I will design syllabus of 'Practice in teaching Korean'and suggest a phase OJT(on-the-job training) program.

Education usually begins with setting a suitable goal. The education of interpreters/translators is no exception here. As the profession of interpreting/translation is based on practical business, the training of interpreters/translators is to be influenced by diverse business-related variables, including supply and demand of interpreters/translators. We should therefore take these variables into consideration when we set a goal for interpreter/translator education. Interpreting/translation education in Korea has been till now an elite training at the graduate level, With the diversification of interpreting/translation modes and languages, however, we need an increasing number of interpreters/translators with various focuses (court interpreting, document translators etc.). That is why interpreting/translation education at the undergraduate level is inevitable. We start this paper with analysis of the current situation of the Korean interpreting/translation market, utilizing statistical data. Then, general goal and principles of interpreter/translator education which are derived from the analysis are presented. Setting a goal, the bond with the social and educational demand should be taken into consideration. Again from these principles and previous researches, we suggest a curriculum and pedagogic methodology for future interpreter/ translator education, with an example of Korean-German department. We put a focus on Interpreting/translation practice as well as acquisition of language, linguistic, translational theories and general knowledge.
