The Philippines’ National Solid Waste Management reported that kitchen/food and other organic wastes comprises 50% of the total solid waste generated. This is the rationale that this study was undertaken to include the waste generators. The central question which the study sought to understand is whether attitude and knowledge relates to each other on the subject of solid waste. A descriptive and correlational design was adopted in the solid waste management survey for the food concessionaries of the university. The study involved all food concessionaries within the university compound. A questionnaire survey composed of four parts was used as instrument. The main result of the study found that the Attitude variable is positively correlated with Knowledge variable (r = .418, p < .05) and it indicated that the relationship is significant. Perceptions on the 3Rs (reduce, reuse, and recycle) positively correlated with Attitude and all three factors are found to be significantly related with Attitude. As to the mediating variables, i.e., Ease of Use, Usefulness, Volunteerism, and Facilitating Conditions, they were found to be explanatory with Knowledge rather than Attitude (particularly with Ease of Use and Volunteerism). Other mediating factors showed weak relationship with either Attitude or Knowledge. The food concessionaries were found to possess a positive attitude on the 3Rs . With the assumption that the results of the study estimates that of the population, the research found a sound basis for predicting behavioral intent of the food concessionaires to practice solid waste management.

2012, Spicy incense pot was stationed in the four dining halls of Jiangxi Normal University. Because of its delicious taste, it was deeply loved by students from Jiangxi Normal University. However, in the past two or three years, the other four of the five canteens of Jiangxi Normal University have also had different incense pots and have taken various forms to compete for customers. The competition of incense pots is becoming increasingly fierce. As an experienced old-fashioned incense pot brand, spicy pot is particularly important to enhance its competitiveness through effective management.

In Korea, software education is being strengthened. As a result, the polarization in software education is getting worse due to the private education craze. Fortunately, there is room in South Korea to narrow the gap through after-school schools. However, the ability of after-school instructors and the acquisition of information are also important, so this study developed model textbooks. Model textbooks have recently applied Nobel Engineering, which has been gaining attention in South Korea. Through the developed model textbooks, we hope to help with fun software education by applying it to the school site after school.

The purpose of this study is to develop a model for developing integrated education programs centered on technology and engineering at STEM/STEM fields in elementary, middle and high schools. We explored ways to integrate the various knowledge of the subject that students learned in class to solve the problem when they encountered technological and engineering problems that occurred in real-world. It also developed an integrated education model that is based on the development of integrated education programs centered on the areas of technology and engineering. The results of the study make it easier for teachers to develop integrated education programs centered on technology and engineering. This research also has significant value because the hands-on activities in STEM/STEM field are mostly about technology and engineering. This will foster high-level thinking skills such as the ability to integrate the divided forms of knowledge learned from each of the subjects oriented in technology and engineering education, the ability to solve problems, the ability to cooperate, the ability to communicate and decide, and creativity.
