The purpose of this study was to analyse the belief about mathematics teaching of elementary preservice teachers and mathematics teachers. This study involved 100 respondents from the preservice teachers and 114 respondents from the mathematics teachers. The instruments used in this study consist 15 items of mathematical knowledges and 19 items of mathematical activities. The finding showed that preservice teachers emphasized the conceptual knowledge, whereas mathematics teachers emphasized the procedural knowledge in the mathematical knowledges. And preservice teachers emphasized the knowledge representation, knowledge generation, knowledge deliberation, knowledge communication, whereas mathematics teachers emphasized the use of knowledge(syntax) in the mathematical activities. Finally, even though two groups showed the significant difference in some items, preservice teachers and mathematics teachers emphasized the various mathematical knowledges and mathematical activities.

A perspective of the nature of teacher knowledge has a significant impact on why and how we study teacher knowledge. The purpose of this study was to explore the mathematics knowledge in teaching (MKiT) in terms of meanings, characteristics, and analytic methods. MKiT regards teacher knowledge as practical knowledge that has meanings only when it is employed in teaching mathematics. Various components of teacher knowledge interact one another in teaching mathematics. Given this, teacher knowledge is regarded as an organism specific to teaching contexts and it needs to be analyzed by observing lessons or a teacher's actions related directly to the lessons. This paper is expected to induce research on teacher knowledge from the MKiT perspective and urge researchers to have a profound understanding of the nature and analytic methods of teacher knowledge. Some implications of future research are included.

This study investigated the perceptions of beginning teachers about teacher knowledge. Reflections and improvement of their class knowledge have been perceived as the most important factors by beginning teachers. In terms of utilization of actual classes, teacher knowledge, mathematical concepts and correlations such as connection linked to class contents and hierarchy have been used the most. Among the needed teachers knowledge, knowledge of student understanding and mathematics content knowledge was the most essential knowledge that could be mainly formed through classroom experience and teacher training program. On the other hand, knowledge about technology and assessment was not necessary or useful factor for beginning teachers. To facilitate formation of beginning teachers' knowledge, teacher introductory program, mentoring program, interactive relationship with teacher education institutes, curriculum improvement for teacher education institute and the development and dissemination of various teachers training program would be required.

수학 교사의 지식은 교과내용 지식, 일반 교육학 지식, 교육학 내용 지식, 교육과정 지식, 학습자에 대한 지식, 교육적 내용에 관한 지식, 수학 교육 목표, 목적, 가치에 대한 지식으로 분류될 수 있다. 지금까지 이러한 수학 교사에 대한 지식 종류에 대한 학문적 연구는 뚜렷하게 체계적으로 연구되어지지 못하고 주로 저학년 학생 및 학습자 위주로 산발적인 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 수학교사가 지녀야할 지식은 수학 학습자인 학생들을 어떻게 효과적으로 가르치느냐에 가장 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것이므로 이에 따른 구체적인 조사 연구가 필요할 뿐만 아니라 교사교육 프로그램에 반영되어 효과적으로 능력있는 교사를 양성할 수 있도록 하여야겠다.

This study has investigated the factors that make a science teacher effective by analyzing students' perception of teacher knowledge required in enhancing their science learning. The basic components of teacher knowledge identified by previous researchers have been confirmed through Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Based on the findings of the EFA, the questionnaire has been further analyzed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) by means of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In addition, the differences in students' perception on the identified factors of effectiveness have also been analyzed in terms of gender and achievement level. The findings of the EFA showed that five factors of science teacher effectiveness were identified; namely, substantive knowledge, syntactic knowledge, knowledge of students' understandings, knowledge of instructional strategies, and knowledge of assessment. These five components have been divided into two categories of teacher knowledge, SMK and PCK. What we found from the CFA was the respective high correlation between substantive and syntactic knowledge, knowledge of students' understanding and instructional strategies and the low correlation between substantive knowledge and knowledge of instructional strategies. Students perceived substantive knowledge as the most effective factor, knowledge of assessment as the least effective factor. Also, there have been considerable differences in students' perception by gender and achievement level. We proposed, based on the findings, that SMK and PCK need to be integrated into a coherent manner for the effective science teaching practice. This study provides some implications for science teacher professional development and the improvement of science teacher preparation program.

This study aimed to investigate how two eighth-grade mathematics teachers' pedagogical content knowledge is manifested in their classroom instruction. A case study was conducted for the study. The results revealed similarities and differences in the teachers' knowledge manifested in their mathematics classrooms and that the two teachers had slightly different structures of pedagogical content knowledge. One teacher is more dependent on his knowledge of mathematics and knowledge of students' understanding and the other teacher on her knowledge of instructional process and, to a lesser extent, knowledge of mathematics.

교육의 질은 교사의 질에 의하여 크게 영향을 받는다고 볼 때, 수학교육의 질적 개선을 성공적으로 이끌기 위해서는 전문가로써의 자질을 갖춘 유능한 교사의 역할이 뒷받침되어야 할 것이다. 일반적으로 교사들이 갖추어야 할 지식을 크게 3가지로 나눈다면 교과의 내용에 관한 지식, 교수 방법에 관한 지식, 학생에 관한 지식으로 나누고 있다. 본고에서는 초등학교 수학 학습지도와 관련된 교과 교육학 및 교과 내용학에 관한 지식과 교사의 전문성을 개발할 수 있는 방안에 대해 개괄적으로 살펴본다.

This research investigates how pre-service music teachers demonstrated pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and self-efficacy during a 16-week Music Education Course. 37 pre-service music teachers underwent peer mentoring, and prepared teaching guides and class teaching demonstrations. At the end of the course, the 37 participants' teacher self-efficacy and PCK components (namely pedagogical knowledge, representational knowledge, subject matter knowledge, assessment knowledge, student characteristics knowledge, curriculum knowledge, and context and social knowledge) were assessed. Data on their self-efficacy and PCK were gathered through a group interview and their self-reflection journals, and analyzed as phenomenological experience research. Analyses of the data show that pre-service music teachers acquired diverse knowledge. It also showed that peer mentoring enhanced the pre-service music teachers' self-efficacy, enabling them to prepare teaching guides and confidently demonstrate classes. Thus, diverse opportunities in research and practical class demonstrations contributed to pre-service music teachers' PCK and self-efficacy.

본 연구에서는 국내 정보 교사가 가지고 있는 교사 전문성의 특성에 대해 고찰하였다. 교사가 가져야 하는 전문성의 여러 종류 중 인지적 영역의 전문성은 학생 성취에 중요한 역할을 담당하기 때문에 가장 중요한 부분으로 볼 수 있다. 교사가 가지고 있는 인지적 영역의 전문성을 교과에 대한 지식, 일반적 교육학 지식, 교수 내용 지식으로 나누어 생각할 때 정보 교사는 세 가지의 전문성을 가지고 있다. 먼저 교과의 내용이 빠르게 변하기 때문의 지식의 개정이 빠르고, 교수내용지식의 많은 부분이 컴퓨팅 도구의 활용과 이에서 발생하는 오류에 대한 내용으로 구성된다는 점이다. 또한 이러한 이유 때문에 정보 교사의 교수내용지식 또한 꾸준히 변화하게 된다.
