In the 2000s, various countries have tried to reform their professional development systems for teachers, including teacher education and induction, as an initial yet crucial step to improve the quality of education. Since 2015, OECD member countries have been conducting an international comparison study on teacher education and induction programs(i.e. ITP). The ITP project is an in-depth comparative study among the member countries that have expressed willingness to participate voluntarily. This paper introduces the progress of the ITP project and analyzed the national background report on the teacher education and induction system of the participating countries and compared the features of the systems.

The objective of this research is to compare the teacher education system in countries that have reformed, or are in the process of reforming, their informatics education by reflecting ongoing social changes and developments in IT. The teacher education systems in Finland, Germany, Japan, the UK and US were compared. As a result of the study it was found that (1) the results did not differ according to the teacher education institution, (2) there was a focus on a minor subject, and (3) there were various routes for teacher training. The systems for special graduate schools were found to be developed, probation period after graduation was more than one year, and license renewal systems were being enforced. Based on these results, it was proposed that (1) more teachers be recruited to attend graduate schools and (2) that software training be given to all teachers as a minor. Finally, a license renewal system for revaluating teachers' qualifications was also proposed. This research is meaningful in that it compared the teacher training system in Korea with five major developed countries.

On March 2011, an annual salary plan was applied to new faculty members in National Colleges and Universities. In 2015, all tenured faculty members will receive salaries based on annual performance evaluations. The efforts and accomplishments of faculty are normally assessed according to a standard formula of 40% teaching, 40% research and 20% service. In almost all colleges and universities, student course evaluations may be considered as the only measure of the perceived quality of the courses offered by the faculty member. The mandatory course evaluations are becoming prevalent in Korea. The results of course evaluations do not reflect the fairness and the appropriateness of the quality of the course taught by the faculty member and should not be considered under the teaching evaluation criteria.

The research attempts to explore legal issues related to teacher certification in gifted education. For this end, first, the institutional processes of the 'Law of the Promotion of Education for the Gifted and Talented' and its legal characteristics were reviewed. The 'Law of the Promotion of Education for the Gifted and Talented' appeared to be superior to the 'Law of Elementary and Secondary School Education' in order to ensure the right of the gifted to receive a proper education. In consequences, regulations related to teacher certification in gifted education should require to obtain professional knowledge and ability in addition to general education teacher certification. Second, the differences between 'Law of the Promotion of Education for the Gifted and Talented' and 'Law of Elementary and Secondary School Education' were analyzed. It was found that the 'Law of the Promotion of Education for the Gifted and Talented' is not sufficiently articulated in terms of required and elective courses and hours to certify teachers for the gifted as well as their employment at gifted educational institutions. In conclusions, further attentions to legal imperatives in gifted education are called for establishing and upgrading teacher certification in gifted education.

교육인적자원부는 교육행정 전반의 효율성을 높이고 교원 업무 환경 개선을 위하여 교육행정정보시스템(NEIS)를 시행하고 있다. 그러나 교육행정정보시스템의 도입단계에서 시스템의 보안성 취약과 개인정보에 대한 해킹 우려 등의 이유로 교육행정정보시스템이 정착되지 못하였으나 NEIS의 27개 영역 중 개인정보를 많이 담고 있는 교무/학사, 입(진)학, 보건을 분리 별도의 서버를 구축하는 NEIS 교무업무시스템이 탄생하였다. 따라서 NEIS 교무업무시스템 활용하여 전자문서를 활용하여 이를 통한 교원업무가 경감되어 학교교육행정의 효율성을 모색할 필요성을 느끼게 되었다. 본 연구는 NEIS 교무업무시스템 활용에 따른 교원업무의 효율성을 분석하고자 하였다. 연구결과, 시스템 개선점 도출 및 편리성이 증진되었고 업무조직의 효율적인 분장 및 업무승인을 전자결재로 시행함으로써 시간단축 효과가 큰 것으로 나타났고 교원의 교무업무도 획기적으로 단축시켜 교원 업무의 효율성도 증진시켰다. 또한 교무업무시스템의 활용으로 소요시간과 예산이 절감되었다. 교무업무시스템의 이러한 교원 업무 경감 효과에 비추어 향후 과제를 제시하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교무업무시스템의 원활한 운영을 위하여 네트워크 정비나 성능 좋은 컴퓨터가 확보되어야 하고 둘째, 업무 효율화를 위해서 시스템 내에서의 업무 승인 기능이 확대되어야 하며 교원의 업무경감 및 시스템 운영의 활성화를 위해서 훈령을 학교현장의 여건에 맞추어 정비 보완해야 하며, 시스템 운영의 표준화를 위한 제도 개선이 필요하다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze an experience of field practice perceived by vocational teachers. Data for analysis were collected from 689 vocational teachers who participated in the training at the Center for in-service teacher education in the School of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Seoul National University and at the Center for in-service teacher education of Chungnam National University. After screening, 685 responses were used in the analysis. As a result, it turned out that only 112 vocational teachers(16.5%) participated in the field practice for more than 4 weeks when they were in pre-service education. However, vocational teachers seemed to perceive that experience of field practice was generally required in pre-service education(average 4.07). In-depth questionnaire was conducted on 143 respondents who replied that they participated in field practice program for more than 4 weeks and those who participated in the program for less than 4 weeks but completed the paperwork. Most of vocational teachers who participated in field practice were placed in small and medium sized enterprises, stayed at home or relatives' home and commuted by the bus or subway. In this research, 34.8% of the vocational teachers who participated in field practice received financial compensation and 80.3% of the teachers got credit recognition. The perception of satisfaction on field practice program was found to be moderate(average 3.51).
