This study was done to explore recognition of accreditation for nursing education, job satisfaction and intention to change teaching area for faculty in Fundamentals of Nursing. Methods: Participants were 104 faculty members teaching Fundamentals of Nursing. Each participant responded to a questionnaire. Data were collected from June 25 to October 25, 2016, and analyzed using SPSS 23.0 for descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: The participants' recognition of accreditation in nursing education was 3.45±0.81 out of 5 and in the sub-items, the score for quality improvement in professors in Fundamentals of Nursing was lowest at 3.21±1.03. Job satisfaction was 3.30±5.30, and intention to change teaching area was 2.62±1.00. Attributes related to practice appear to be major reasons why participants intended to change their teaching area and scores for intention to change teaching area were medium or higher. Conclusion: Results indicate that it is necessary to develop strategies to improve job satisfaction and reduce intention to change teaching area for faculty with less experience in Fundamentals of Nursing education. Development of strategies, management and support are needed to improve young professors' job satisfaction and reduce intention to change teaching area.
Abstract-This study presents a water quality Management program for Urban River Networks (WAQUMURIN). The model analyzes a variety of water quality problems in urban stream networks linked by ponds, lakes, and reservoirs, which are subdivided into unit reach cells. A mass balance is performed in each cell for the nonconservative contaminants loaded from point and nonpoint sources on land. The model was designed by GUI to provide a practical program for management purposes. To test the performance of the model, it was applied to the Han River network in the city of Seoul, Korea, which has eight stream branches. The test was conducted for BOD load and compared with measured data.
