본 연구의 목적은 예비 초등교사의 수학 수업에 대한 자기효능감을 조사함으로써 예비 교사를 위한 수학 교육프로그램 개선에 도움이 되고자 하는데 있다. 기존의 문헌 분석에 의하면 수업에 대한 교사들의 자기효능감은 수업 수행 능력과 학생들의 학습에 크게 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려졌다. 뿐만 아니라 최근 우리가 지향하고 있는 교사들에 대한 학습자 중심 수학 수업으로의 개선과 변화된 수업 방식의 지속성에 매우 유효한 요인이 된다. 예비 초등교사들을 대상으로 한 본 연구 결과에 의하면 이들의 수학 수업에 대한 자기효능감은 보통의 수준에 머물러 있으며, 특히 상당수의 예비 교사들은 자신의 수학 수업에 대한 자신감이 매우 부족한 것으로 들어났다. 이러한 결과는 아마도 현재 교육대학교에서 예비 교사들에게 제공하는 수학 교육과 관련된 과목을 수강할 수 있는 기회가 매우 제한적인 데서 그 원인을 찾을 수 있으며, 이는 또한 수학 교육 프로그램의 초점이 예비 교사들의 수학 수업 능력의 측면에 초점이 맞추어져야 한다는 것을 시사한다. 예비 교사들의 수학 수업에 대한 자기 효능감은 그들이 이해하고 있는 수학 교수법적 지식과 매우 관련이 깊은 것으로 나타났다.

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.

In this study we analyse the features of process of problem posing and explore the development of mathematical knowledge of primary preservice teachers as result of their engagement in problem posing activity. Data was collected through the preservice teachers' class discussions. Analysis of the data shows that preservice teachers developed their ability to understand connections among mathematical concepts.

The development of teacher's professionalism through teacher education is a key element in the improvement of school education. However, there has been criticism that the mathematics teacher education in Korea do not provide given enough opportunities for the classroom experience during preservice teacher education period. For development of inservice mathematics teachers and preservice teachers' teaching professionalism, this study develops a research community for mathematics classroom consisting of experts, inservice mathematics teachers, and preservice teachers. And the study explores the possibilities of the model as an educational space for inservice teachers and preservice teachers by participating in a series of courses such as task development and revision, and observation and analysis of classes. As results, inservice teachers and preservice teachers were able to enhance the practical experience and understanding necessary for the class, and they were also positively influenced in teacher efficacy and view of teaching on the model. Based on this, we suggest the possibility of the model as a teacher education system.

본 고에서는 교육대학의 3학년에 재학 중인 예비 초등교사들이 학생으로, 교생으로의 자신들의 경험을 중심으로 기술한 내용을 토대로 그들의 관점에서 본 수학에 대한 생각과 유능한 수학교사의 특징에 대하여 조사하였다. 이들 예비교사의 관점에서 보면 유능한 수학교사는 수학교과에 대한 수학 지식은 물론이고 수학교수에 대한 열정과 함께 학생들에 대한 관심과 사랑을 가지고 있어야한다.

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 is to examine a preservice elementary mathematics teacher's beliefs and stated-actions in which she planned and implemented mathematical activities in a field experience within a mathematics methods course. Results show that the preservice teacher seemed to be dealing with conflicts and trying to resolve them in order to make sense to herself. Results also suggest that the preservice teacher's beliefs about how children learn seem to get confirmed through the field experiences so that she was able to articulate, which influence her experience of focusing on an individual child. This, in turn, induces her to elaborate her beliefs. These processes would explain her beliefs and actions as a sensible system.

This study aims to find out the feasibility and effectiveness of mathematical games as a way to provide primary pre-service teachers with doing mathematics. The game had induced the active participation of elementary pre-service teachers. Through transforming the game, the teachers have been able to experience of mathematical problem posing and generating mathematical representation. Based on this, we discuss the role of mathematical games as a method of pre-service teacher education.

The purposes of the study were to analyze pre-service mathematics teachers' MKT and to examine the perceptions of MKT to find implications for the improvement of pre-service mathematics teacher education program in the aspect of teachers' content knowledge. Twenty-six pre-service mathematics teachers participated in the survey to examine the perceptions of MKT and they also finished two MKT tasks which focused on a specific area of middle school geometry. According to the survey results, the participants thought that they have enough knowledge in all categories of MKT except KCT-2 and they appreciated the importance of MKT education in pre-service mathematics teacher education program. However, the participants showed difficulties in MKT task items which required SCK, KCS, KCT, especially, the proportions of those who showed appropriate knowledge on the items required SCK and KCT was less than 50%. These results show disagreement between the perceptions of pre-service mathematics teachers' MKT and practice of MKT.

The purpose of this study was to investigate preservice mathematics teachers' perceptions for mathematics digital textbook. To do this, we provided a questionnaire to 52 preservice mathematics teachers and analysed the questionnaires. The questionnaire was investigated using 5 point scale. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. First, the preservice mathematics teachers' perception on effectiveness of mathematics digital textbook was positive. Second, the preservice mathematics teachers' perception on interaction of mathematics digital textbook was normal. Third, the preservice mathematics teachers' perception on interest of mathematics digital textbook was positive. Fourth, the preservice mathematics teachers' perception on students' health of mathematics digital textbook was normal. Fifth, the preservice mathematics teachers' perception on class-management of mathematics digital textbook was normal. Sixth, some preservice mathematics responded that mathematics digital textbook was efficient to teach a function or a geometry, others responded that paper textbook was more efficient to teach a mathematics.
