This study examined inservice elementary teachers' thoughts on the development of educational apps by preservice elementary teachers and implications for TPACK education for preservice elementary teachers. A case study was conducted in which preservice elementary teachers developed a science education app, and the three teachers were surveyed for their thoughts regarding this. The results regarding the characteristics of the developed app by preservice teachers were as follows. First, "inquiry" had the highest value among educational goals intended by the preservice teachers. In addition, the scores for tool-type apps and apps in which interaction between learners and instructors occurs were relatively high. Second, most of the preservice teachers developed apps to meet curriculum goals, but their apps showed low-level characteristics in terms of the constructive and cooperative dimensions. The results of the analysis of the thinking of elementary school teachers regarding the education development apps are as follows. First, elementary school teachers assigned the lowest scores to the effectiveness of the apps, and to this problem, the achievement standard with respect to the curriculum and the evaluation and modification activities fir the apps were proposed. Second, the teachers indicated that it would be appropriate to provide the experience of making apps to directly improve the TPACK of preservice teachers. Third, the respondents thought that preservice teachers should develop block coding literacy to create apps using App Inventor. Fourth, the teachers considered it necessary to emphasize simulated instructions, as well as the experience of collecting and handling data through apps to improve preservice teachers' TPACK app development for educational use.

This research aims to conduct the teaching experiment based on the constructivism to elementary preservice teachers and report on how they construct and develop the mathematical knowledge on ratio concept. Furthermore, this research aims to examine the significances and difficulties of "constructivist teaching experiment" which are conceived by elementary preservice teachers. As the results of this research, I identified the possibilities and limits of mathematical knowledge construction by elementary preservice teachers in the "constructivist teaching experiment". And the elementary preservice teachers pointed out the significances of "constructivist teaching experiment" such as the experience of prior thinking on the concept to be learned, the deep understanding on the concept, the active participation to the lesson, and the experience of learning process of elementary students. Also they pointed out the difficulties of "constructivist teaching experiment" such as the consumption of much time to carry out the constructivist teaching, the absence of direct feedbacks by teacher, and the adaption on the constructivist lesson.

This study intended to analyze pre-service elementary teachers' perceptions of teacher knowledge based on the Technological, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework. Seventy-four pre-service elementary teachers who were enrolled at an University of Education located in mid-continent of Korea participated in a survey. Results of the survey was analyzed using Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) method. It was found that perception of importance was significantly higher than that of performance at all seven domains of the TPACK. IPA matrix extracted from the survey indicates that Technological Content Knowledge (TCK), Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK), and TPACK which are related to technology especially need to develop. Results of this study also show the necessity to support pre-service teachers so that they can have opportunities to develop and use technology-related knowledge and skills. This study especially implies that technological knowledge needs to be integrated with content and pedagogical knowledge when implementing curriculum and educational programs for pre-servie elementary teachers.

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 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.

This study involved an investigation of prospective elementary teachers' preconceptions and experiences of diagrams and their ability to draw diagrams in solving math word problems. A questionnaire and two math word problems were administered to prospective elementary teachers who began to taking an introductory mathematics education course. The results from the analysis of their responses to the questionnaire items indicate that prospective elementary teachers appreciate the value of diagrams as tools for problem solving and communication. In addition, prospective elementary teachers have the will not only to teach their future students how to use diagrams but also to encourage them to draw diagrams in solving math word problems. However, the results also indicates that prospective elementary teachers neither use diagrams spontaneously in their math problem solving activities nor have confidence in drawing useful diagrams. Prospective elementary teachers also manifested low scores on the questionnaire items asking whether they were taught how to draw useful diagrams or encouraged by their teachers to use diagrams in their previous learning experiences. The results from the analysis of the diagrams that prospective elementary teachers drew in solving math word problems showed that most of them had difficulty drawing diagrams that represent their reasoning and solving process.

The purpose of this study is to assess pre-service elementary teacher's conceptions of environmental issues. 141 pre-service elementary teachers from local college participated in this study. We discovered that most of participants understood the possibility of technological abuse that could lead to environmental destruction. They also well understood the crisis of the Earth's ecosystem. Nevertheless, it seemed most of participants were not ready to take action to save ti. In addition, they also showed stereo-typically biased opinions about science, technology and their relationship with environmental issues. It appeared to come from media-oriented environmental education. Since pre-service teacher's conceptions could directly effect future education, it is necessary to establish a more systematic educational system for environmental education, for both pre-service teachers and students.
