Could you tell us what is your impressive memory? I stayed for 3 days in one area to teach health education to children. One of the elementary school students was afraid of strangers heavily and had a lack of social skills. However, I became close with the kid after 3 days of teaching and talking. The kid came and hugged me first in the last class. I was really pleased to share my mind with the children and find out the essence of education. Q4. What are the projects under way? Do you have any plans for the future? Firstly, the health clinic for the underprivileged has been operating for 10 years in Seoul Station. Secondly, health educational curriculums have been arranged for rural children. We have scheduled to launch health educational programs for children, teenagers, and the elderly in the highlands and islands. Finaly, medical campaigns and educational programs are being conducted in Kenya and the Philippines as a part of the overseas health care projects. We will also go to Cambodia as soon as possible. Q5. Is there anything that you would like to say for Sangmyung University students? There are only two Sangmyung University students including me. In addition, few of the 200~300 applicants are Sangmyung University students. We do not care about the major of the applicant but his or her passion. I wish for many SMU students to show their abilities in Freemed. Q6. Please tell us how to apply for Freemed. We are going to start recruting between December to next January. People who want to join us can apply to Freemed through the promotion bulletin board of ‘Every time’ or our website (www.freemed.or.kr).

제 2 호 Sangmyung’s Collaborative Learning Park for Team Project Learning

Sangmyung’s Collaborative Learning Park for Team Project Learning By Yu-jung Kim, Cub-Reporter kyjmimi121@naver.com These days, Korean universities prefer team projects that communicate and cooperate with others. Therefore, you can see many students who conduct team project at Sangmyung University. However, there are students who wait for a place or go to a café. Anyone who has ever done a team project in our university will sympathize. I want to cheerfully tell the students at my school not to worry anymore. Because now our school has a special space for team projects called the CLP(Collaborative Learning Park). CLP is a space designed for collaborative learning. It has various kinds of spaces with seminar- rooms, separated spaces and open spaces. In particular, each space has a TV for a display and a wireless cooperation solution (Bring Your Own Device) system. CLP is so popular among students to the extent that the rooms are fully booked during the usual study period. ▲The Photo of CLP So, who designed the CLP for students? CLP designers are school officials and Lee Hyun-woo, a professor of education. Professor Lee Hyun-woo actually said, “I thought it was a problem not to provide space for the team project, although we give a lot of tasks for the team project assignments.” It is of great significance that they have tried to think about and solve the lack of learning space. This may prove that the school and professors are interested in Sangmyung University students. CLP is a space for students only, so I hope all the students in our school will study and grow together. If there are any students who have not used it, go and study with friends right away. Source :https://www.smu.ac.kr/webzine/today.do?mode=view&articleNo=698259&article.offset=30&articleLimit=10

제 2 호 Sangmyung University Develops Technology for Low Cost Commodity Plastics

Kicker: SM News Sangmyung University Develops Technology for Low Cost Commodity Plastics by Chae eun Song, Cub Reporter thdcogml@naver.com Have you ever heard of commodity plastic? Commodity plastics are plastics that are used in high volume and a wide range of applications, such as film for packaging, photographic and magnetic tape, clothing, beverage and trash containers and a variety of household products where mechanical properties and service environments are not critical. Examples of commodity plastics are polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, poly(methyl methacrylate) and more. Kang Sang-wook, professor of Sangmyung University Recently, a research team led by Kang Sang-wook, professor of Sangmyung University, and a graduate student, Kim Min-soo, announced that they had secured technology to obtain ethylene and propylene at low cost, which are materials for commodity plastic. Olefin materials, such as ethylene and propylene in crude oil, are separated and produced through processes of a distillation column in petrochemical complexes. Generally, they are separated using different boiling points. The process of boiling and cooling at temperatures below minus 30 degrees must be repeated more than 100 times to obtain ethylene and propylene of a high degree of purity. Efforts have been made all over the world to replace the previous separation technique because its cost amounts to about 200 billion won a year in Korea.The membrane, which utilizes silver (Ag) ions, can get high purity olefin material with just one pass, but problems have been found in terms of durability.As a way to replace this, a membrane using silver (Ag) nanoparticles has been developed and this has received much attention due to its excellent durability.However, there were many difficulties in commercialization due to low transmission performance.To improve this, Professor Kang Sang-wook and his team recently succeeded in developing an olefin membrane that shows high permeability and mechanical properties at the same time utilizing durable silver (Ag) nanoparticles. The newly developed partitioning membrane is expected to replace the existing high-cost distillation column separation process if further cost-cutting studies are carried out.

제 2 호 A Brand New Way to Get Along

Kicker: SM News A Brand New Way to Get Along Volunteering at a Soup Kitchen by Dong-wook Kim, Cub-Reporter smartpodo@kakao.com Recently, there has been a lot of Individualism going on in our society. People are not talking to each other like before and are not communicating with acquaintances. This kind of meta is toxic in our society, not being beneficial for the developmental perspective. Individualism is also spreading in universities. According to the statistics of “Albamon”, approximately 38.5% of the freshmen are living as a “Voluntary Individualist.” Will there be some solutions to this single favored situation? On April 1st, students of the Department of Food and Nutrition of Sangmyung Univ. did volunteering at a soup kitchen to enhance the friendship between the elders and the freshmen. According to one of the freshmen’s interview after the volunteering, he said, “Breaking the ice was such a hard time for me when I first entered our school. Then my major started collecting people for this food canteen volunteering. After visiting the elderly welfare center to deliver food to the elderly, I got to know more elders and companions in my major. The volunteering was tough, but the suffering was worth it.” Students Serving Food By this interview, it seems that volunteering is effecting much wider boundaries than just working. Being interactive with people doing the duty can make both feel connected. Thus, this can ease the Individualism going on these days. The volunteering can be anything else other than serving out food from the kitchen. The volunteering subject can be the person’s major like teaching a language or coaching how to be in shape. These activities might just begin as an exercise for building a resume but in the long term, people who chose to be alone will join in.

제 1 호 Volunteer Work that Must be Filled with Necessity, Do You Know It Has Changed?

Volunteer Work that Must be Filled with Necessity, Do You Know It Has Changed? By Ju-eun Yeon/Reporter Yeonje1113@naver.com Many students have great confusion about the volunteer work process. Let’s find out about the changes to the volunteer work process and how to complete the volunteer subject. First, let’s find out the changed volunteer time. Previously, the new student of 2014 to 2017 had to do more than 58 hours of volunteer work. From this year, they will meet the conditions for volunteer work even if they fill only 28 hours, but only one credit will be granted. The rest of the credits can be filled with the essential liberal arts courses. You can choose whether to fill more than 58 hours instead of two credits or 28 hours instead of one credit. From the new student of 2018, they only fill 28 hours without any changes. Next, let’s take a look at the operational procedures. First, you need to contact a volunteer agency to do volunteer work. And then, apply for volunteer classes in the semester when you can fill with volunteer time. Then, you receive prior education from your professor in charge. Next, you enter the performance of the volunteer time directly into the university information system and submit the performance documents to the professor in charge. Finally, the professor in charge will give you a credit by pass or fail. Volunteers should be invited to a welfare center where performance is recognized at 1365(the site of volunteering) or VMS (Volunteer Management System). ▲The Homepage of 1365 Finally, I will explain the confusing points about the volunteer subject. Q1) Do I have to go to pre education? A1. Yes. Otherwise, you will get a fail grade and pre education gives you 2 hours of volunteer time. Q2) I take classes on Saturday. Do I have to go to school on the weekend? A2. No. Just take the pre-education. Perhaps the professor in charge will never call you because of volunteer work on the weekend. Q3) Can I apply for this at any time? A3. Right and wrong. You can apply for the volunteer subject at any time if you satisfy the volunteer time. Q4) Is the volunteer work that I did during the vacation acceptable? A4. Yes. You will busy during the semester, so fill it up in advance using the vacation. However, you should fill 2 hours of volunteer time during the semester. Q5. When can I give the professor in charge the performance documents? A5. Any time you have finished your volunteer time!
