The purpose of this study is to investigate preservice secondary mathematics teachers' knowledge about graphical representation and provide implications for better mathematics teaching and learning in our schools. For this purpose, sixty-three preservice teachers were selected and given diverse graphical representation problems of y=1, y=x, x=0, $x^2+y^2=1$. All preservice teachers completed two types of questionnaires. First type is about constructing the graphs of the above each equation, and the second one is to make them find the appropriate graphs from given examples of the each equation. The results indicated that all the participant pre service teachers were unable to construct graphs in terms of various dimensions and various direction of coordinate axis. All of the participants represented the graph of each equation on only two-dimensional coordinate system. In addition, some preservice teachers believed that the axis of coordinates have to be x-axis on horizontal line and y-axis on vertical line. From this study, it is implicated that pre service teacher education program needs to provide the experience of representing the graphs of equation in terms of various dimensions and various direction of coordinate axis so as to develop their future students the flexibility and creativity in mathematical thinking especially in the area of space perception.

The purpose of this study was to explore the possibility of digital simulation by which pre-service teachers (PSTs) can approximate the core teaching practice of eliciting student thinking. This study examined PSTs' questions to elicit student thinking, their use of "pause" session and peer feedback, and their reflections on doing a digital simulation. We analyzed a two-hour digital simulation session with 13 PSTs who enrolled in the elementary mathematics methods course. The results showed that PSTs shifted their general questions to more content-specific questions throughout the simulation and made a quick transition to comparing students' strategies. The number of lead PST-initiated "pause" ranged one to four times for various reasons. Their peer-coaches did not voluntarily "pause" the simulation session but actively shared what they noticed from the student work samples and suggested the next teaching moves. Without utilizing the pause session, the dramatic improvement of questioning was not observed. Even though the PSTs felt overwhelmed with interacting with the student-avatars in real-time, they highlighted the benefits of simulations, appreciated the opportunity to learn the core teaching practice, and viewed this digital simulation as "real" and "authentic" experience. The findings of this study provide implications for re-designing a practice-based teacher education program.

The importance of computer education has increased as a knowledge-based society develops. The national project for developing the industry of educational information will be ended by the year of 2000 From year 2001 on, the korean government plans to include computer education in Elementary and Middle-School Curricula. Teachers' colleges in Korea need to develop standardized teaching materials. These teaching materials may be used to teach a computer education class, plan a computer education curriculum, and do research on computer education teaching methods as well as computer education teaching materials. This study attempted to examine some aspects for developing teaching materials which we may use to teach pre-service teacher trainees in a teachers' college. The results of this study will help pre-service teacher trainees not only improve their ability of information literacy, but also obtain some techniques and strategies for teaching computer education in school.

The importance of pre-service teachers' curriculum that can run K12 school SW education is raised. However, there is insufficient study on the standard of SW curriculum for pre-service teachers in domestic. In this study, we analyzed domestic and foreign cases based on four kinds of contents knowledge. Domestic cases were found to be concentrated on curriculum contents of education and teaching methods. Through the analysis of cases in domestic and abroad, we presented the content of SW education based on knowledge of teaching contents for preliminary teachers. The main contents are all four areas, and the curriculum contents and the teaching method are emphasized the most, and the SW subject education experts are asked for the feasibility study. The results of the questionnaire survey showed that although the validity and consensus exceeded the standard, the CVR value for the student management field was lower than the standard value.
