Many elementary school teachers' lack of scientific knowledge reveal as several problems in teaching science. Thus, elementary school teachers need to improve their scientific knowledge, but there is the limit to improve the teachers' scientific knowledge through activities based on lecture that conducted in process of training and retraining them. Therefore, Improvement for training science teacher to improve scientific knowledge of elementary school teachers would be searched in this study. Depth interview was conducted toward three elementary school teachers, who had conducted action research, to improve content knowledge of material domain within teaching process and elementary school science. Based on result of the interview, difficulty and development that the three teachers were commonly experienced in process of conducting scientific inquiry in action research were analyzed. One of the difficulties of the inquiry were to figure out how the three teachers, who participated in the interview, understand specific concept, what they do not understand, and what they should study more to understand the concept. And there was a circumstance that the teachers did not know how to apply procedural knowledge, which learned explicitly in the process of setting plan for conducting research, into real context. Since there was difference between knowledge that they understand disjunctively and context that observed in real circumstance, they faced difficulty. However, the teachers conducted analysis of topic, planning research, conducting research, discussion of the result by themselves with those difficulties Thus, the teachers mentioned that not only content knowledge had been improved, but understanding of procedural knowledge, which is not intended to improve, had been also improved. Besides, they also mentioned that comprehensive understanding content knowledge, which they already understood, was also helpful. And the teachers suggest that if there were chance to discuss and examine the scientific practices by consisting of group with colleagues rather than conducting it individually it would more efficient studying. Considering their suggestion, direction of training elementary school teachers for improving their scientific knowledge should be improved in a way to understand science concepts based on direct research about context that is generated in circumstance of studying group of the teachers. Consequently, it would contribute to improvement of teaching science by combining teachers' practice and understanding.

본 인식 조사에서 나타난 결과와 개선 방안의 도출과 관련한 시사점을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 국내 연구부정행위 실태는 우려할만한 수준으로 나타났다. 위조, 변조, 표절, 부당한 저자 배분, 업적 부풀림 등 연구부정행위에 대해 연구비 유용이나 횡령보다 훨씬 더 만연한 것으로 응답하였다. 연구부정행위가 발각되는 정도에 대해서는 의견이 분분하였으나 처벌의 수위는 엄격하지 않다고 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 본인의 연구윤리 의식이 타인에 비해 높은 것으로 자부하고 있으나 부정행위 인지시의 행동에 대해서는 바람직하다고 생각하는 행동과 자신의 예상 행동 사이에 괴리를 보였고, 바람직하다고 생각하는 행동도 매우 소극적인 것으로 나타났다. 부정행위 실태 조사에서 나타난 중요한 사실은 주로 기초 연구를 수행하는 과기부/교육부 사업 수행자가 응용이나 개발 연구를 수행하는 산자부/정통부 사업 수행자에 비해 자신의 연구 분야에서 연구부정행위가 훨씬 더 만연해 있는 것으로 응답한 것이다. 둘째, 가장 심각한 연구윤리 저해 요인에 대해서는 단기간 성과의 강조, 연구 수주의 경쟁 심화, 정량적 성과 주의 등을 꼽았으며, 전체적으로 개인적/문화적 요인보다는 구조적/조직적 요인, 특히 구조적 요인이 더 중요한 것으로 인식하고 있었다. 신뢰도 분석 결과 제3장에서의 분석을 바탕으로 본 연구에서 제시한 구조적, 조직적, 개인적, 문화적 요인의 구분은 유효한 구분으로 나타났다. 대학에 비해 정출연 소속 연구자들이 구조적 요인이 연구부정행위와 더 관련이 많다고 인식하고 있었으며, 기업 소속 연구자들은 구조적 요인이나 조직적 요인과의 관련성이 더 적은 것으로 인식하고 있어 본 연구에서 제시한 여러 저해 요인들이 대학이나 정출연에 더욱 밀접한 것으로 나타났다. 개인적 요인에 대해서는 여성이나 고연령층에서 부정행위와의 관련성을 더 크게 느끼고 있었다. 셋째, 개선 방안에 대해서는 과도한 연구비의 집중 방지, 소규모 개인과제 확대, 평가의 전문성과 공정성 확보를 가장 효과적인 방안으로 인식하고 있었다. 부정행위에 대한 처벌의 강화와 양적 평가의 개선에 대해서도 효과를 높이 기대하고 있었다. 연구윤리 교육이나 상대 평가의 강화, 진실성 검증 시스템의 보완 등에 대해서는 큰 효과를 기대하지 않고 있었으나 이는 국내에서 그동안 연구윤리에 대한 체계적 교육이나 진실성 검증 시스템이 존재하지 않은 탓에 연구자들이 그 효과를 잘 인식하지 못하고 있다는 점이 고려되어야 할 것이다. 개선 방안을 크게 평가, 선정, 수행, 연구윤리의 인프라로 구분하였을 때에는 선정과 평가와 관련된 개선이 시급한 것으로 인식하고 있었다. 사업별로는 과기부/교육부 사업 수행자가 선정과 관련된 개선의 효과를 더욱 크게 느끼고 있었고 소속기관으로는 대학 연구자들이 더욱 크게 느끼고 있어, 소규모 과제의 확대와 연구비 집중 문제 해결, 경쟁 완화 등이 대학과 기초연구분야에 더욱 절실하다는 것을 나타내었다. 전체적으로 제시된 세부 항목에 대해 과기부/교육부 사업 수행자가 산자부/정통부 사업 수행자보다 효과성을 높게 보고 있는 것은 연구부정행위 실태에 대해서도 더 심각하게 인식하는 것과 맥락을 같이한다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안하는 여러 개선 방안들을 단계적으로 적용한다고 할 때 우선 기초연구나 개인 단위 과제 중심으로 적용하는 것이 효과성이나 필요성의 측면에서 모두 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

This study was carried out to identify the reality of students' understanding of Korean traditional scientific knowledge (TSK), the educational contexts influenced their understanding of TSK, and their sense of value of TSK, through the science activity 'Being a commentator on Korean traditional scientific culture' as a way of finding direction to apply TSK to science education while maintaining the inherent meaning of our traditional science. Seventh grade students have discovered TSK contents in Changdeok Palace, prepared their own scripts for seven months, and finally, explained to fifth to sixth grade students. The video recordings of all lessons, scripts of explanation, reports of field activities, and individual interviews were all analyzed. Students understood TSK in four viewpoints: the traditional view of nature, the traditional science and technology, the traditional life using science, and the natural science contents. During their activities, communication with peers or elders both in classroom and in Changdeok Palace, the interaction with place, and the sense of responsibility as a commentator helped students understand the scientific aspects of TSK, form contextual and sensible scientific knowledge, and apprehend various scientific explanations of contents. Depending on their internalization of experiences, the students' experiences produced three types of interpretation: delivery, persuasion, and understanding. Students formed their TSK sense of value as scientific characteristics, the need of new perspective about science, the need to protect and maintain TSK as our culture. The results of this study show that TSK can provide integrated and actual contextual education in science education and can be used to understand the cultural diversity of scientific and scientific methods and the characteristics of oriental scientific thinking. In addition, the simultaneous approach of TSK and school science to traditional culture can contribute to ideal concept formation and subjective attitude toward our traditional culture.

Teachers play a key role in designing a students' learning experience. Teachers are asked to interpret the context in which they are located and to adjust their practice to fit circumstantial needs based on their teacher agency. In this study, we explore the emergence of teacher agency in distance learning caused by COVID-19 and we analyze factors shaping the teacher agency. For this purpose, we interviewed six secondary science teachers who practiced distance learning in 2020. Semi-constructed interviews and their artifacts were collected and analyzed. This study shows that teacher agency is captured when they respond to circumstantial change and modify their practice to achieve their professional purpose or adjust their practice in space for maneuvering or keep their practice consistent. This study also analyzes the factors that affect the emergence of teacher agency in two dimensions. One is individual and the other is contextual. In the individual dimension, educational values shaped by his/her experiences and short/long-term goals for the future support the emergence of teacher agency. In the contextual dimension, there are collaborative and flexible culture shared by the community, co-operation within the teacher community, and material support. On the other hand, in the individual dimension, the teachers' sense of their role, and no reflection for own practice constrain the emergence of teacher agency, and in the contextual dimension, performativity discourse and strong requirement without guidance constrain the emergence of teacher agency. We suggest an effective lens for establishing a strategy that support teachers' professional practice and the emergence of teacher agency.

The purpose of this study is to understand the context of cosumers' lives in Korea with a narrative analysis method. The epistemological orientation of eh narrative analysis is Interpretivism, which blends the two polar philosophical perspectives, Empiricism and Rationalism, and includes Narrotology, Hermeneneutics, Semiotics, and Structural Criticism. Narrative analysis takes as its object of investigation the story itself. This study collects eleven narrative plots from four housewives, into which Labov's structural approach is applied. This study shows clearly that the socio-cultural environment in which consumers live has strong influence on their consumption behavior and also reveals that narrativization tells not only about past actions but how individuals understand those actions, that is, meaning.

In this paper, I applied known theories of appraisal and re-appraisal to the Japanese Colonial Archives and the Colonial City Planing Archives in Korea. The purpose of this application to some of sample archives was to develop a useful and effective approach to appraise the archives which were not appraised before they were determined to be "permanent" archives by the Japanese colonial officials. The colonial archives have lost their context and "chain of custody." A large portion of their volume also disappeared. Only thirty thousands volumes survived. The appraisal theories and related issues applied to and tested on these archives are; "original natures" of archives defined by Sir. Hillary Jenkinson, Schellenburg's information value appraisal theory, the re-appraisal theory based on economy of preservation and prospect for use of the archives, function-based appraisal theory and documentation theory, the special nature of the archives as unique, old and rare colonial archives, the intrinsic value of the archives, especially the city planing maps and drawings, and finally, the determination of the city planing archives as permanent archives according to the contemporary and modern disposal authority. The colonial archives tested were not naturally self-proven authentic and trustworthy records as many other archives are. They lost their chain of custody and they do not guarantee the authenticity and sincerity of the producers. They need to be examined and reviewed critically before they are used as historical evidence or any material which documented the contemporary society. Rapport's re-appraisal theory simply does not fit into these rare historical archives. The colonial archives have intrinsic values. Though these archives represent some aspects of the colonial society, they can not document the colonial society since they are just survived remains or a little part of the whole archives created. The functions and the structure of the Government General of Korea(朝鮮總督府) were not fully studied yet and hardly can be used to determine the archival values of the archives created in some parts of the colonial apparatus. The actual appraisal methods proved to be effective in the case of colonial archives was Schellenburg's information value appraisal theory. The contextual and content information of the colonial archives were analysed and reconstructed. The appraisal works also resulted in full descriptions of the colonial archives which were never described before in terms of archival principles.

In this study, pre-service science teachers' reflective thinking in their journal writing was investigated. To do this, the authors used pre-service science teachers' journal writing abilities, wherein they not only reported data and result formally, but also wrote their feelings and reflections about an inquiry-based physics experiment they performed. Pre-service science teachers' writings were decomposed into sentences and each sentence was analyzed into a framework with 4 dimensions: knowledge, procedure, orientation and attitude. Reflective thinking in knowledge dimension included reflection on what they know before the experiment, what they still do not know and what they learned from the experiment. Reflective thinking in procedure dimension included recalls of experiences about general experimental procedures and specific experimental skill. Reflective thinking in orientation dimension included their views about the nature of science and science teaching and learning, and reflective thinking in attitude dimension consisted of interests, motives and values about the experiment they performed. While there were some variations in frequency distribution of reflective thinking by the topic of experiments, pre-service science teachers' reflective thinking in journal writings revealed their metacognition on their knowledge and learning, epistemological belief about science and science learning, and affective domain related to experiment. This study can infer that such kind of writing with 'their own language' in an informal way followed by formal 'scientific' reports in a scientific experiment has a significance not only as a mediator representing reflective thinking but also as an instructional activity to facilitate reflective thinking in science learning and teaching.
