이 연구는 수학교사가 자기수업 관찰을 바탕으로 수업반성의 과정에서 발문을 어떻게 반성하는지, 반성을 통해 수업에서 발문을 어떻게 변화시키며, 교사와 학생 사이의 상호작용에 어떤 변화가 나타나는지를 분석하기 위한 것이다. 두 중학교 수학 교사를 대상으로 일주일에 1회씩 총 5회의 수업관찰과 수업반성의 순환과정을 통해 얻어진 관찰자료, 녹화자료, 면담자료로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교사의 수업반성 결과 학생들로 하여금 수업에 더 많이 참여하고 학생 자신의 생각을 표현할 수 있도록 유도하기위한 효과적인 발문을 고안하였고, 교사 자신의 수업을 자발적으로 평가하는 경향을 보였다. 둘째, 발문의 변화 면에서 반성 초기의 수업보다 반성 후기의 수업에서 설명을 요구하는 발문유형의 빈도가 높게 나타났으며, 판단을 요구하는 발문을 하고 나서 그 판단에 대하여 설명하도록 요구하는 발문을 함으로써 학생들로 하여금 자신의 생각과 아이디어를 표현할 수 있도록 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 문제해결과정에 학생들의 참여의 기회가 늘어나도록 발문을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 상호작용 측면에서 교사와 학생간의 상호작용이 학생과 학생들 간의 상호작용 패턴으로 변화하였고, 교사의 판서가 의사소통을 단절시키던 것에서 교사와 학생의 의사소통의 방향을 안내하는 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다.

중등교사 임용고사는 현실적으로 수요를 초과하는 다수의 교사 자격증 소지자 가운데에서 우수한 교사를 선발하여 공립 중등학교에 임용하기 위한 공개 경쟁 시험제도이지만, 그 영향력은 중등교육의 발전과 사범대학의 교육과정에서 결정적일 뿐 아니라, 사회적으로도 지대하다. 여기서는 “좋은 수학교사”의 양성과 선발이라는 문제를 중심으로 임용고사가 수학교육의 발전에 순기능적 원동력이 될 수 있도록 개선을 위한 몇 가지 드러난 문제점들에 대하여 논의하고, 필연적으로 임용고사의 영향력 아래 놓이게 되는 수학교육과의 교육과정과의 관계에서 상호 보완적 역할을 할 수 있는 방안과 수학교육과의 교육과정에 대하여 개략적으로 논의하였다.

Teachers' philosophies have not been emphasized enough in the current teacher education curriculum even though teacher's philosophy palys a critical role in schools and classrooms. The examination on pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies is necessary to improve teacher education curriculum so that teaching philosophies are often discussed in the courses of 'pedagogical content knowledge' as well as 'general education.' Therefore, the current study investigated 44 pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies, their sub domains, and relationships among the sub domains. The previous studies regarding mathematics teacher's teaching philosophy were more about 'teacher's belief' and employed deductive inference approach using surveys or questionnaires. These studies commonly pointed out that there were three major domains of 'belief on mathematics itself,' 'belief on teaching mathematics,' and 'belief on learning mathematics.' As these three domains of teacher's philosophy has been strengthened, there were very few studies examining the other potential domains of teacher's teaching philosophy. According to the findings of the present study, which employed inductive inference approach and pre-service teachers' free essay writing assignment, 'belief on teacher's role in mathematics classroom,' 'belief on the purpose of mathematics education,' and 'motivation to be a mathematics teacher' were additionally illuminated as sub domains of teacher's teaching philosophy. Moreover, the interrelationship among the sub-areas of teacher's teaching philosophy was disclosed. Specifically, 'belief on the purpose of mathematics education' and 'motivation to be a mathematics teacher' influenced the other sub domains. This implies that the relationships among the sub domains of teacher's teaching philosophy were more likely to be causal and vertical relationships rather than independent and parallel relationships. Finally, the findings from the current study provide implications indicating how pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies might be established in mathematics education courses for future research and education.

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.

This research aims to compare and identify the prospective elementary teachers' perspectives on mathematics class. In this aim, we analyzed the comments on the mathematics class by the prospective elementary teachers (senior students and junior students) who are differ in the time of study in the University of Education. As the results of this research, the senior students commented the mathematics class by applying the theories in mathematics education, but the junior students did not. Furthermore, the senior students had the more rigid perspectives on mathematics class and commented in more depth on mathematics class in comparison with the junior students. While, the senior students showed a weak point that they overextended and over-applied the some mathematics education theories in the comments on mathematics class.

The purpose of this study was to find ways to improve teacher training programs for mathematics teachers' professional development in Korea. To do so, we first investigated current programs for in-service mathematics teachers in Korea. Then five professional development programs for mathematics teachers in foreign countries were searched and described, which have clear concepts of professionalism and distinct strategies in terms of their aims, processes, focal points, financial supports, etc. We then analyzed the advantages and disadvantages and the types of each program. Based on the analyses, we finally discussed what we learned to make mathematics teacher training programs better for their professional development in Korea.

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.

To offer insights in organizing professional development programs to promote teachers' substantial ongoing learning, this paper provides an overview of situative perspectives in terms of cognition as situated, cognition as social, and cognition as distributed. Then, it describes research findings on how mathematics teachers can enhance their knowledge and thus improve their instructional practices through participation in a professional development program that mainly provides opportunities to learn and analyze students' mathematical thinking and to perform mathematical tasks through which they interpret the understanding of students' mathematical thinking. Further, it shows that a knowledge of students' mathematical thinking is a powerful tool for teacher learning. In addition, it suggests that teacher-researcher and teacher-teacher collaborative activities influence considerably teachers' understanding and practice as such collaborations help teachers understand new ideas of teaching and develop innovative instructional practices.

This study aims to explore central and peripheral beliefs of mathematics teachers in the context of teaching and learning. For this purpose, this study analyzed teacher noticing of 8 mathematics teachers who are in-service in terms of mathematical beliefs using video-clips of math lessons. When the teachers in the video-clips seemed to have a teaching and learning problem, teachers who adopt noticing critized the classroom situation by reflecting his or her own mathematical beliefs and suggested alternatives. In addition, through noticing analysis, teachers' mathematical beliefs reflected in specific topics such as student participation in teaching and learning were compared to reveal their individual central and peripheral beliefs. Through these research results, this study proposed a model that extracts the central and peripheral beliefs of math teachers from the constraints of the teaching and learning context using noticing analysis. Additionally, it was possible to observe the teacher decision-making and expertise of mathematics teachers.

교육과정은 그 시대에 적합한 요구들을 반영하여야 한다. 제 7차 수학과 교육과정에서 이산수학의 도입이 바로 정보화 시대의 반영이라고 볼 수 있다. 즉, 이산수학의 도입은 수학의 변화가 수학교육의 변화로 이어졌다는 점에서 긍정적으로 평가할 수 있다. 그러나 새로운 내용의 교육과정 도입은 충분한 검증 절차의 부재로 인하여 부정적인 측면도 나타날 수 있다. 예를 들어, 교사양성 대학에서 이미 오래 전부터 개설되어진 해석학이나 대수학 같은 강좌와는 달리 이산수학의 강좌는 비교적 최근에 개설되어 졌으므로 대부분의 현장교사들은 이산수학 내용에 대한 지식이 거의 없다는데 있다. 이러한 문제점들을 바탕으로 우선, 교사양성 대학교육과정에서의 이산수학에 대한 충분한 연구와 우리 현실에 맞는 교재의 재구성이 요구되어진다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 7차교육과정을 고려하여, 교사양성 대학에 적합한 이산수학 강좌에 대한 구체적인 예들을 제시하여 사범대학 학생들로 하여금 이산수학을 제대로 이해하고, 아울러 이러한 연구가 현직 교사연수에도 충분히 반영될 수 있도록 한다.
