In the current era of mathematics education, constructivism is a core theory of learning. For teachers, understanding and applying constructivism to their teaching practices are crucial for student centered teaching. However, some mathematics educators understand Constructivism in a different way. For example, some future teachers view Constructivism as making mathematics 'fun' by creating game without considering conceptual understanding. In this paper, the original articles of Constructivism were revisited and investigated to understand and to search for their meanings. Also several types and sources of Constructivism were identified; Radical Constructivism, Vygotsky's social-cultural theory of development, Social Constructionism, and Social Constructivism. This paper investigated arguments of the several types of Constructivism and discussed their implications for mathematics teaching.

The purpose of this study is to analyze what kinds of science education theories are targeted in the "Examination for Appointing Secondary School Science Teachers (EASST)." For the analyses, we extracted the contents related to the science education theories in the question items of the EASST of 2008 through 2012, and categorized those theories into science curriculum, history of science and philosophy of science, scientific inquiry, theory of teaching and learning, model of teaching and learning, and assessment. The results of this study indicated that the theory of teaching and learning appeared most frequently and there were high proportions of question items related to the following topics: contents in science curriculum, scientific method, contemporary philosophy of science, process of inquiry, Ausubel's theory, learning cycle model by Lawson, cooperative learning, criteria of performance assessment, and etc. While we, as science educators, believed that the other categories such as 'history of science' provides important topics for pre-service science teachers, questions items dealing with those were rarely found in the past EASSTs. As EASST has strong influences on the professional developments of pre-service science teachers, more research should be pursued on how much and what domains of science education theories would be appropriate for the test.

This is a theoretical study of which the goal is to investigate the meaning of a participation metaphor (PM) for learning and draw its implication for teaching and learning science. The review of relevant literature reveals that the PM is associated with the view of learning as ongoing participation in sociocultural practices within a community, and that cognitive apprenticeship is an instructional model related closely to the PM. It is then suggested that a community of learners should be developed if science teaching and learning are to be implemented in line with the PM. Finally, the present study briefly introduces a high school science club as an exemplar of science learning community, including what should be considered in science education research.

This paper is to make strides toward an enriched understanding of mathematics teacher learning and professional development. Different theoretical frameworks in understanding mathematics teacher learning are reviewed, followed by a discussion of the relationships of knowledge and teaching practice. This paper then analyses contemporary conceptions about effective professional development and, in particular, deals with teacher learning in inquiry communities. This paper introduces a research project describing transition processes from teacher- centered mathematics classroom culture to student-centered culture and analyzing teacher learning in communities and its concomitant change in teaching practice. On the basis of the emerging problems in doing the project, this paper finally addresses some crucial issues on teacher learning and professional development, including the management of an inquiry community, the description of teaching practice from the researcher's perspective, and the analysis of teacher learning in communities.

In existing the learner testing system, it has a weak point to determine differently the difficulty of each question which has been estimated by teacher's view and the subjective stand point. In this paper, we develops the learner testing system which supports the estimation of the individual ability of learner, provides the questions for suitable to the individual learner level, and able to estimate the question of individual that used by three parameters such as the difficulty parameter, discrimination parameter, and guessing parameter. Also, it is applied to three-parameters logistic model of IRT(Item Response Theory) for using CAT(Computer Adaptive Testing) technique.

본 논문은 스마트 사회에 요구되는 핵심역량으로서 디지털리터러시를 제안하고 선행연구에서 다루었던 학습지향성을 자원기반관점의 핵심역량으로 채택하여 기업성과와의 관계를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 중소기업창업지원법상의 기술기반 창업기업 200개 업체를 표본으로 하여 연구를 진행하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학습지향성이 기업성과에 유의적인 정(+)의 영향을 미칠 것이라는 가설은 채택되었다. 둘째, 디지털리터러시가 기업성과에 유의적인 정(+)의 영향을 미칠 것이라는 가설은 채택되었다. 셋째, 디지털리터러시가 높을수록 기업성과에 대한 학습지향성의 영향력이 커질 것이라는 가설은 채택되었다. 본 논문의 이론적 실무적 시사점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 스마트 사회의 등장으로 창업 및 기업성과에 대한 디지털리터러시의 영향이 중요해지고 있음에도 불구하고 디지털리터러시와 기업성과 간의 관계에 대한 실증 연구가 많이 부족하였다. 본 연구는 스마트 사회의 창업성공요인으로 디지털리터러시를 제안하여 학습지향성과 기업성과 간의 관계에 대한 디지털리터러시의 조절효과 및 디지털리터러시와 기업성과 간의 관계를 실증적으로 분석함으로써 디지털리터러시 관련 연구의 확산에 기여하고 있다. 둘째, 자원기반관점과 핵심역량이론에 따라 창업기업의 핵심역량으로서 학습지향성과 디지털리터러시를 채택하고 기업성과와의 관련성을 도출함으로써 두 가지 변수 모두 혁신형 창업을 활성화할 수 있는 스마트 사회의 핵심역량임을 확인하였다. 셋째, 연구방법론 측면에서 본 연구는 기업성과의 하위변수로 재무성과와 비재무성과 이외에 지적재산권의 출원이나 등록 등을 통해 측정되는 연구개발성과를 추가함으로써 기술기반 창업기업의 성장성 및 미래관점을 반영하고 있다.

We expected that PBL (Problem based Learning) methode has good effectiveness for HTML(Hyper Text Markup Language) learning of elementary school students. In this study, a test was conducted in which a PBL method and the traditional lecture-based learning method were applied to an HTML class, and compared the level of educational accomplishment and compared the effectiveness of the two methods. PBL applied was based on the IMSA model of problem-based learning center. Educational accomplishment was evaluated base d on evaluation of theory and application skills. Test results revealed that there were no significant differences in theoretic learning between the two methods of learning. However, in application skills, the PBL was proved to be significantly more effective th an the traditional lecture-based learning method. Through the study, it was verified that PBL has a more positive educational effect that the traditional lecture-based learning.

가상교육에 대한 초등학교 아동들의 교육적 욕구가 증대되고 있는 상황에서 현재까지는 웹기반의 학습내용 게시 및 문제제출 등에 연구들이 많이 진행되어 왔다. 또한 현 교육과정에서 강조되고 있는 협동학습에 대해서도 이론적인 연구들이 많이 발표되었으나, 이를 학교 현장에서 실제적으로 협동학습 프로그램을 개발하여 운영하는 학교들은 거의 없다. 본 연구에서는 웹 기반의 학급 경영모델을 기본 환경으로 구축한 후, 이러한 학급경영모델에 협동학습을 지원할 수 있는 세부 내용을 설계하고 구현하였다. 현재 초등학교 1개 반을 대상으로 구현된 모델에 따라 학급을 운영하면서 학습현장의 문제점에 대해서도 고찰한다.
