This study investigated the effects of a 7 week nutritional educational program on the unbalanced dietary habits, tastes, dietary attitudes, and nutritional knowledge of 127 fourth grade students. The subjects were selected from seven elementary schools that were under the supervision of the Dongbu Office of Education in Incheon. Results showed that most of the subjects were fully aware of the fact that they were on an unbalanced diet. It was also revealed that the main reason for their unbalanced diet was that they tended not to eat foods that did not fit their tastes. After implementation of the 7 week nutritional education, the subjects'unbalanced dietary habits significantly decreased, but their desires to fix their unbalanced diet failed to increase. The subjects'tastes showed a positive change in their perception towards vegetables, seafood, and seaweed to a significant degree; however, their appetite far meat, eggs, beans, frozen floods, and processed goods did not show any noticeable change. A significant increase was also found on the level of the subjects'nutritional knowledge but not in their dietary habits and dietary attitudes.

The statement, 'Taking more mathematics would result a better mathematics teacher.' sounds plausible. However, it is questionable that how much of taking university level of mathematics such as abstract algebra and real analysis would affect to teach elementary mathematics well. Would a mathematician be a better teacher for elementary students to teach mathematics than who has been prepared to teach elementary mathematics? This paper reports the effects of opportunities to learn tertiary level mathematics and school level mathematics on pre-service primary school teachers' mathematics pedagogical content knowledge. The study analyzed Teacher Education and Development Study in Mathematics 2008 (TEDS-M 2008) database using multiple regression. Prospective primary teachers who have been prepared as generalist were the focus of the study. The results support future elementary teachers might need to have opportunities to revisit school mathematics they are going to teach.

The purpose of this study is to probe into student teachers' understanding of mathematics content knowledge and to identify the features of knowledge which is required to be emphasized in the elementary teacher education. For this, student teachers attending teacher preparation courses in Korea and Hong Kong were interviewed on tasks encompassing the 'what', 'why' and 'how' aspects of elementary mathematics. It was found that for the student teachers in the sample, their understanding of the concepts behind elementary mathematical topics was not very thorough. They were unable to retrieve the advanced mathematics that they learned in their advanced mathematics courses. It is suggested that for student teachers in mathematics, it is essential that the advanced mathematics they learn be explicitly related to the elementary mathematics they have learned in school.

Several previous studies suggested that simulation could be a main didactic instrument in overcoming misconception and probability modeling. However, they have not described enough how to reorganize probability knowledge as knowledge to be taught in a curriculum using simulation. The purpose of this study is to identify the theoretical knowledge needed in developing a didactic transposition method of probability knowledge using simulation. The theoretical knowledge needed to develop this method was specified as follows : pseudo-contextualization/pseudo-personalization, and pseudo-decontextualization/pseudo-deper-sonalization according to the introductory purposes of simulation. As a result, this study developed a local instruction theory and an hypothetical learning trajectory for overcoming misconceptions and modeling situations respectively. This study summed up educational intention, which was designed to transform probability knowledge into didactic according to the introductory purposes of simulation, into curriculum, lesson plans, and experimental teaching materials to present didactic ideas for new probability education programs in the high school probability curriculum.

사회는 빠르게 변화하고 있으며, 그러한 변화는 새로운 적응을 요구하고 있다. 그래서 오늘날의 사회는 “사고력의 사회”라고 생각하는 지도 모르겠다. 이에 발맞추듯, 교육과정에서도 사고력 개발의 필요성을 역설하고 있지만, 실제 교육현장에서는 어떠한가? 어떻든 이런 저런 이유로 ‘주입식’수업, ‘암기식’수업은 안 된다고 오랜 세월 많은 연구자들이 합창을 해왔다. 그러나 ‘예전대로’, ‘하던대로’의 전통은 별로 바뀌지 않고 계속되고 있는 것 같이 보인다. 따라서, 본고는 아동들이 수학수업에서 사고학습을 어떻게 함으로써, 아동의 능력을 강화하고, 아동의 인지발달을 촉진하며, 개인의 지식 수준을 향상시킬 수 있는 특별한 방법을 찾고자 한다.

교사가 효과적으로 수업을 하려면 계속해서 개선을 해야 한다. 교사들이 자신의 수업을 계속해서 반성함으로써, 또한 교수와 학습에 대한 지식이 변함에 따라 수업이 변하고 발전한다. 따라서 이상적인 교사는 꾸준히 변하는 교사이다. 이러한 교사역할에서의 변화가 요구되는 합의가 암묵적으로 이루어지고 있으므로, 교사의 역할을 인지적 관점과 사회적 관점으로 나누어 살펴보고, 교사교육을 실행공동체에서의 참여의 변화과정으로 개념화하여, 교사교육 프로그램의 방향과 효과에 대하여 알아본다. 이에 따른 바람직한 교사의 변화 방향을 탐색하여 수학 교실 향상에 대한 앞으로의 시사점을 얻는 것이 이 논문의 목적이다.

본 연구에서는 경영환경 및 정보기술의 변화에 경영 정보학 교육이 어떻게 적응해 나갈 것인지 경영 정보학 교수와 정보시스템 실무자들의 인식을 조사 분석하였다. 40명의 경영정보전공 교수와 22명의 정보시스템 실무자들은 정보시스템 전문가가 갖추어야 할 경 영능력, 이들이 숙지해야 할 최근 정보관련 이슈, 또 정보시스템 전문가에게 요구되는 정보 기술에 대한 지식 및 활용 능력 등에 관해 거의 일치된 견해를 보였다. 경영정보 전공 교수 들은 변화하는 정보기술을 반영한 새로운 교과목을 개발하고 대학당국에서는 경영정보학이 유사공학분야(Psuedo-engineering)임을 인식하고 교과과정 개편과정에 신축성을 부여하고 이공계에 준하는 실습시설 및 연구지원을 해주어야 실무에서 원하는 인재를 양성할 수 있을 것이다.

The aims of this study are to identify Dewey's theory on mathematics education and to clarify its influence on the modern theories of mathematics education. For this purpose, we have examined Dewey's theory of knowledge named as pragmatism or instrumentalism, and studied the Dewey's theory of education in which he maintained education is the reconstruction of experiences. And then, we have examined Dewey's theory on mathematics education, such as theory of mathematics, purpose of mathematics education, contents of mathematics education, and methods of mathematics education respectively. After that, we have analyzed how his theory on mathematics education is connected with the diverse theories of modern mathematics education, such as Piaget's operational constructivism, Freudenthal's theory of realistic mathematics education, Polya's theory on mathematical problem-solving, and social constructivism. Through this study, we might say that Dewey's theory on mathematics education is a prototype of modern theories of mathematics education and a comprehensive paradigm which is very suggestive to the phenomena of mathematics education.

Teachers' perceptions about curricular objectives are very important to achieve given educational objectives. This study examined teachers' perceptions about priority and hinderance of science objectives. The national science curriculum stated four areas of objectives: inquiry, knowledge, attitude, and STS. A total of 76 elementary and 217 secondary teachers were responded to questionnaire developed for this study. Non-parametric statistics, such as Friedman test, Kruskal-Wallis test, and chi-square test were used by using SPSS/PC program. Teachers in general ranked the inquiry first among the four areas at their perception on the national curriculum, on themselves, and on their instructions. Elementary teachers ranked inquiry higher than secondary science teachers, while secondary science teachers ranked knowledge higher than elementary teachers. As factors hindering teachers from achiving the objectives, elementary teachers pointed out overcrowded classroom and secondary science teachers pointed out college and university entrance examination respectively.
