As concerns have been raised about the increasing number of children with food allergies, the management of food allergies through the consideration of school meals is an emerging issue. This study investigated the perception and practices regarding food allergy of elementary and middle school nutrition teachers in the Jeonnam area. A total of 236 nutritionists/nutrition teachers participated in the survey and completed questionnaires. The foods most reported to cause allergic reactions were peach, eggs, peanuts, shrimps, mackerel, and milk. Participants reported that the major tasks to be completed for management of food allergies: the estimated number of students with food allergies, the offering of allergy-free or alternative foods and informing families of foods that may cause an allergic reaction. A majority of the participants (94%) recognized that the nutrition teacher has the primary role in managing students with food allergies in school. To manage these students, nutrition teachers mostly reported informing of allergic foods/ingredients in the school menu and the estimation of students with food allergy. The percentage of participants who experienced education programs on food allergies was 16.9%, whereas 97% of participants answered that a good professional education regarding allergies for nutrition teachers is required. The knowledge level evaluated with objective questions was significantly higher than the self-estimated knowledge level. In conclusion, nutrition teachers understood the tasks regarding food allergy thoroughly and that, the tasks are relatively under-practiced. To improve the management of food allergies in school meals, professional education programs regarding food allergies should be provided for nutrition teachers.

This study explored the effects of pre-service elementary teachers' inquiries into science class dilemmas. By closely examining the characteristics of the pre-service teachers' inquiry processes and changes in their educational decisions, the effectiveness of using dilemmas as part of teacher education was determined. Twenty fourth-year university pre-service teachers participated and conducted inquiries into science class dilemmas over seven weeks. Based on pre- and post-questionnaires, KWHL tables, inquiry reports, discussions, and group class presentations, the major factors that influence the pre-service teacher's decision-making changes were extracted. The pre-service teachers found the science inquiry process meaningful when exploring the science topics covered in the dilemmas, and claimed that elementary school students would be able to engage in meaningful science explorations if they learned science through inquiry. Furthermore, the pre-service teachers explored the thinking processes and background knowledge of the students in different ways. Documents such as teacher's guides and the curriculum were examined and the students' thought processes were identified through interviews with the teachers and students, which were found to reflect their educational decision-making. Moreover, it was recognized by the pre-service teachers that depending on the situation, alternative teaching methods were possible. The focus on the unstructured dilemma problems provided the pre-service teachers with problem-solving situations that triggered scientific inquiry and exploration of student thinking and revealed the complexity of science teaching and learning. Based on these results, the teacher education implications for using dilemma cases are discussed.

사회가 변화함에 따라 수학교육과정도 변화를 거듭하고 있으며, 이러한 변화에 잘 대처하기 위해서 교사는 수학교육의 방향에 대한 깊이 있는 성찰과 함께 수학, 교육학, 심리학 등 수학교육과 관련된 학문에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 이러한 교사에 대한 시대적인 요구에 능동적으로 대처하는 방안으로 Wittmann(1984)은 수학교과의 특성상 변하지 않는 요소들을 교수단위(Teaching Units)라 하고, 수학교육을 통합시키는 개념으로 교수단위이론으로 제시하였다. 교수단위는 수학에서 가르쳐야 할 내용들을 목적, 자료, 활동, 배경 등의 4요소에 따라 작은 단위로 조직화한 것으로, 이를 통해 수학연구자나 교사는 가르쳐야 할 내용에 대한 구조적인 이해와 체계적인 조직화를 도모할 수 있게 되어 나아가 사회의 변화에 대응할 수 있게 된다. 본 연구에서는 2007년 개정 수학과 교육과정 도형영역의 교수단위를 학년별로 추출하고, 추출된 교수단위의 특징과 제목을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 교수단위가 수학교육과정연구에 어떻게 활용될 수 있는지 그 방안을 모색해 보았다. 도형영역의 교수단위(TU)는 특징과 제목에 따라 '개념알기형', '개념적용형', '관계알기형'의 세 유형으로 분류할 수 있다. 현재의 도형영역 교육과정은 대체로 개념알기형, 개념적용형, 관계알기형의 순으로 구성되어 있으며, 개념적용형이 개념알기형보다 조금 더 많다. 이는 도형영역 교육과정이 학습한 개념을 다양한 방법을 통해 여러 활동에 적용시켜 봄으로써 도형의 개념을 좀 더 명확하게 알게 되는 초등학생의 발달단계를 고려하여 구성되었음을 알 수 있다. 이러한 교수단위(TU)는 수업자가 도형학습주제에 맞게 수업을 재구성하거나 학생들의 수준에 맞는 수준별 맞춤자료를 제작할 때 유용하게 활용될 수 있으며, 더 나아가 수학연구자들이 새로운 교육과정을 수립하고자 할 때 기초자료로 활용될 수도 있을 것이다. 교수단위는 고정불변의 것이 아니고 계속 보완되고 진화될 수 있는 모델이다. 따라서 앞으로도 많은 수학연구자나 현장교사의 참여로 교수단위가 보다 더 체계적이고 조직적으로 연구되어야 한다. 또한 추출된 교수단위를 교사나 학생들이 보다 편리하게 활용할 수 있도록 컴퓨터용 소프트웨어로 개발하려는 후속 연구가 필요하다.

This is descriptive research to understand the constipation rate of elementary school students due to their differences in cognition of their eating habits, hours of exercise/physical activity, stress, and school restroom environment in accordance with the matter of constipation, as well as the factors related to the constipation rate. A total of 741 students (grade3-6) from six elementary schools in Jeollanam-do were targeted; the survey was conducted from April 30th to May 12th, 2014. The frequency, percentage, ${\chi}^2$ test, independent t-test, and bivariate logistic regression analysis were conducted. The constipation rate was 23.9%, and there were factors related to the constipation rate, such as restroom preference, matter of defecation during breaks, number of meals per day, number of breakfasts skipped, size of the meal, hours of institute class, hours of internet use, stress, and cognition of school restroom environment. In particular, students with 'high' stress had a 5.44 times higher rate of constipation than students with 'low' stress. As subjective symptoms are limited in diagnosing constipation, a detailed medical examination and physical checkup should be included in the process of understanding the constipation rate, as well as in education and management to prevent elementary school students from having constipation.
