This study analyzes the "JunghagGanguilog (中學講義錄)" published by the JoseonTongsinJunghaggwan(朝鮮通信中學館), a correspondence school in the 1920s, as well as "Mungyoui Joseon (文敎の朝鮮)," "Sinjisig (新知識)," and newspaper articles to examine the situation of science education in correspondence education at that time. The study investigated the effectiveness of science education outside of schools by analyzing the content of chemistry lectures in correspondence education materials and comparing them with Qualification Exam questions. Correspondence education served as a communication channel for individuals in the 1920s who were unable to receive formal schooling and was a valuable educational method for those aiming to pass Qualification Exam for admission to higher-level schools. Due to the similarity between the chemistry lecture content and Qualification Exam questions, learners likely favored correspondence education, leading to higher learning abilities. Therefore, it can be seen that the Korean publication of "JunghagGanguilog" was a significant resource in the science education landscape at that time.

This study explore characteristics of teaching orientation and pck of science teachers in online-offline mixed learning environment. Data consisted of open-ended survey, semi-structured interview, class observation, field notes from 12 science teachers. We categorized teaching orientation considering both science education goals and science teaching·learning orientation. There were 8 different teaching orientations such as 'understanding science concepts-lecture centered' 'constructing science concepts-inquiry based' 'applying science concepts and inquiry-inquiry based' 'applying science concepts and inquiry-lectured centered' 'analyzing and judging science information-inquiry based' 'developing scientific attitude-inquiry based' 'developing scientific attitude-lecture centered' and 'developing perception of interrelationships among science, technology, and society-inquiry based'. Teachers with inquiry based teaching·learning orientation seemed to have knowledge of science curriculum specific to online learning environment for student inquiry. While teachers with 'understanding science concepts-lecture centered' teaching orientation appeared to have questioning strategy of checking student understanding and strategy of repeating a lecture, teachers with 'constructing science concepts-inquiry based' teaching orientation appeared to have knowledge of instructional strategies to perform online group activities targeting student construction of knowledge and to replace face-to-face group activities with virtual experiments and individual experiments. While teachers with 'understanding science concepts-lecture centered' teaching orientation did not show knowledge of student science learning, teachers with 'constructing science concepts-inquiry based' teaching orientation appeared to have knowledge of student difficulties in inquiry based learning.

This study aims to describe, explain, and understand the process of coteaching instruction in which two pre-service science teachers plan, perform, and reflect the instruction in a university lecture. Pre-service science teachers exchanged their perspectives on teaching, selected the learning model and the science content to teach, and prepared the teaching material together. They performed the coteaching using the lecture room effectively and exchanging the role of leading the instruction. The professor and other pre-service science teachers participated to the coteaching instruction directly or indirectly with the role of students or lesson critics, and shared the evaluation and reflection on the instruction. We discussed the meaning and implication of the coteaching instruction on the secondary education field, the science teacher education, and the science education.

지금 교육당국자나 많은 대학에서는 교수의 강의를 컴퓨터를 통해서 진행하는 사이버대학의 계획을 추진하고 있다. 강의록을 통신망에 올려놓는 사이버교육은 다양하고 창의적인 교수법을 압박할 수 있는 문제점을 안고 있다. 그래서 사이버대학은 대학생들의 수를 늘리는데는 도움을 줄 수 있겠지만 교육수준의 질을 높이는데는 별 도움이 되지 않을 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate beginner and experienced Korean science teachers' perceptions about the science teacher preparation courses from which they graduated, and to compare them. The study was conducted as a qualitative study using in-depth interviews. For the study, interview questions were developed by the authors based on the questionnaire of 'The IMPPACT project' that was being conducted in America. The interview tool includes questions about their experience of science subject matter content knowledge, science pedagogical content knowledge, and general pedagogical content knowledge in their preparation courses. For the interview, seven beginning science teachers, less than five years of teaching experience, and five experienced science teachers, more than five years of teaching experience, were sampled from secondary schools in Korea. The research results are as follows: First, most of the beginner and experienced science teachers perceived that the teaching methods in the classes of science subject matter were not good model for teaching science in their secondary school, because they were not diverse enough and entailed mostly knowledge transfer just through lecture without teacher-student interaction. Second, most of the beginner science teachers perceived that they were affected positively by the teaching strategies and evaluation methods in the classes for science pedagogical subject matter and they could apply those strategies and methods in their current science teaching. Lastly, most of the beginner and experienced science teachers perceived that general pedagogical subject matter is important and prerequisite for science teaching in their schools, but the courses that they experienced at their university were not appropriate for their current teaching.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the usages and problems of distance science learning and learner behavior analysis. This study established an Sixteen-weeks period of experimental treatment from March to June 2020, and the students who participated in the study formed a research group of 128 students in 2nd grade of their advanced classes who are attending the second semester of B university of education and taking courses in 'teaching research 1'. B university of education is singleness class that doesn't have compare group, so this study is constituted only study group. The results of the study were as follows. First, The students who took science learning remotely liked using the university's LMS system. Second, it was not efficient for the faculty member's scientific data presentation to operate smoothly in the online system. Third, it is necessary to set various educational platforms as a standardized platform. Looking at the pros and cons of various platforms may vary depending on the suitability of education, but if the LMS system, which is a professional teaching support method, is upgraded to meet the needs of learners, the satisfaction of higher instructors and learners will be higher.

Data science is a discipline comprised of the academic fields of statistics, computer science, information technology, and domain knowledge. It analyzes data and derives meaningful results using complex technologies. Data science, along with artificial intelligence, is a core technology of the 4th industrial revolution; consequently, universities and companies worldwide are actively developing programs to develop data scientists who require high levels of expertise. In line with this undertaking, the field of elementary education has recognized the importance of data science education and so various studies have been conducted to develop curricula designed to help students understand how to use data. This paper proposes a curriculum for the purpose of educating elementary school teachers who are mostly non-majors in the computer field about data science. Satisfaction analysis was conducted based on questionnaires collected from students to analyze the effectiveness of the data science education proposed in this paper.
