  • Purpose: Business education is in high demand whereas knowledge is critical for an individual's professional development in general, and for teachers in particular. In this research, the effect of the distributions of teachers' business knowledge on schools' achievement were investigated. Research design, data and methodology: This study employs a quantitative method to investigate the level of business knowledge distributions of teachers on schools' achievement. 155 business studies subject teachers were categorised into 66 respective schools to measure the correlation and regression between teachers' business knowledge distribution and schools' achievement. Results: The results of the study show that there is a significant relationship between school achievement from the aspect of teachers' business knowledge distributions, with the score of, r = 0.345, p < 0.05. The value of R2 shows a moderate relationship between the teachers' knowledge distributions on school achievement but still plays a role in determining the measurement of the school's level of achievement. Conclusions: It is concluded that the relationship between teacher's business knowledge and school achievement in the subject of Business Studies is significant. This study proves that the teacher's knowledge about business is very important in guaranteeing the success of students who took this subject.

  • The paper discusses the nature of Knowledge Organization Systems (KOSs) and shows how these can support digital library users. It demonstrates processes related to integration of KOS like the Dewey Decimal Classification, $22^{nd}$ edition (DDC22) in DSpace software (http://www.dspace.org/) for organizing and retrieving (browsing and searching) scholarly objects. An attempt has been made to use the DDC22 available in Bengali language and highlights the required mechanisms for system-level integration. It may help a repository administrator to build an IDR (Institutional Digital Repository) integrated with SKOS-enabled multilingual subject access systems for supporting subject descriptors based indexing (DC.Subject metadata element), structured navigation (browsing) and efficient searching.

  • 본 연구에서는 수업 과정 내지 단계에서 교사의 반성 역할의 의미가 무엇인지 개략적으로 살펴보고, 이에 기초하여 반성을 통한 교사 지식의 확장 과정을 탐색하여 이를 도식화하여 나타내어 보고자 하였다. 또한, 이러한 도식화된 모델을 바탕으로 하여, 교사가 자신의 수업 반성을 통해 수업 개선은 물론 교사 지식의 확장을 이끄는 수업 평가틀을 마련하고자 하였다. 이러한 평가틀은 반성에 초점을 둔 수업 평가틀로서, 교사 자신의 수업 평가를 통하여 교수 개선 및 교사 지식의 확장을 통한 전문성 신장을 이루고자 함이다. 끝으로, 본 연구에서는 이러한 평가틀에 기초하여 교사 자신이 활용 가능한 자기 평가지의 예를 제시하고자 하였다. 다만, 교사 지식의 범위가 방대하므로 여기서는 교과 내용 지식(Subject matter knowledge)을 중심으로 해당 연구 내용을 구체화하고자 하였는데, 이는 교과 내용 지식이야말로 어떻게 가르칠 것인가에 강력한 영향력을 행사하는 주요 요소로서 교수 활동 결정시 가장 직접적인 영향을 주기 때문이다.

  • In this paper, we analyze what the components of mathematics teacher` knowledge are, and find that mathematics teacher need knowledge of three areas: subject matter knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, and pedagogical content knowledge. Studies of practicing teachers suggest that When teachers lack understanding in their respective disciplines, it inhibits them from providing students the best learning opportunities, but that a teacher possessing pedagogical content knowledge provides learners with multiple approaches into learning. Some teachers having sound knowledge of mathematics and students were able to respond appropriately to students' questions, design appropriate learning activities involving a variety of mathematical representations, and orchestrate mathematical discourse in the classroom. Thus, it appears that mathematics teachers' knowledge positively affect teaching and student learning..

  • The purpose of this study is to inquire the building process of Pedagogical Content Knowledge of prospective mathematics teachers about the function concepts. For this purpose, We performed the following steps; First, we performed the survey relaying to the prospective mathematics teachers' teaching experiences, capabilities of their error evaluation of the students, and viewpoints about the function concepts. Second, we performed the survey on the subject-matter knowledge about the function concepts and the key items of designing teaching plans about the function concepts. And then, we interviewed the participants to check the results of the surveys and to supplement the necessary contents. The collected data was relatively correlative and analyzed in the process. As a result, we found the followings; First, subject-matter knowledge of prospective mathematics teachers about the function concepts is different depending on the grades. Second, prospective mathematics teachers are building more extended function concepts through the major subjects. Third, the major subjects are important to build the Pedagogical Content Knowledge of function concepts. Fourth, teaching experience plays an important role in transforming subject-matter knowledge of function concepts to Pedagogical Content Knowledge of it. Fifth, building the Pedagogical Content Knowledge means transferring the teacher's viewpoint from himself/herself to the learner.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 탐구 과제에 대한 사전지식이 초등 과학 영재의 관찰방법과 의문에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 '거미와 거미줄' 이라는 과제를 해결하는 과정에서의 학생들의 관찰방법과 의문이 사전지식에 의해 어떻게 영향을 받는지 연구하였다. 사전지식이 상대적으로 높은 집단의 학생들은 사전지식이 낮은 집단에 비해서 관찰의 방법과 양이 높게 나타났다. 그러나 사전지식이 양이 높은 집단이나 낮은 집단 모두 관찰 방법에서는 오감을 이용한 단순 관찰을 주로 하였다. 이는 사전지식의 양이 관찰의 양에는 영향을 미치나 관찰 방법에는 영향을 주지 못하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 사전지식이 높은 집단에서는 보다 높은 수준의 관찰이 나타났다. 이는 관찰의 수준이 높아지기 위해서는 사전에 충분한 교육이 필요함을 의미한다. 따라서 교사들이 관찰을 이용한 수업을 수행할 경우에 사전에 관련된 지식에 대하여 충분한 수업이 이루어져야 보다 효율적인 관찰이 일어난다고 볼 수 있다.

  • In Korea environmental education has been taught as a separate subject in school since 1995. Still it has not established its own individuality. The environment subject teaches many areas that are also taught by the other subjects. Its text focuses on the knowledge of ecology and pollution although it tries to help students acquire a desirable attitude for environmental conservation and participate in environmental activities. To achieve the goals of environmental education in school, the environment subject and the other subjects should take differentiated parts in environmental education. For example, the latter teach knowledge and skill related to ecology and pollution and the former encourages students to behave responsibly to environment. One of the ways for it to do so is to let students discuss current environmental issues based on knowledge and skill and make their own decisions. The teacher who is charged with the subject has to help students, with their own will, decide to do good to environment and sustainable society, but should not make them to decide according to their teacher's will. We need to deeply discuss, with open mind, what the environment subject will teach and how it will cooperate with the other subjects to effectively achieve the goals of environmental education in school. Without such partitioning it is difficult that the environment subject keeps its own individuality and justifies its existence.

  • This study examines the differences and similarities of mathematics teachers' subject matter knowledge among England, the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong. Data were collected from a ten-item test in the SKIMA subject matter audit instrument [Rowland, T.; Martyn, S.; Barber, P. & Heal, C. (2000). Primary teacher trainees' mathematics subject knowledge and classroom performance. In: T. Rowland & C. Morgan (eds.), Research in Mathematics Education, Volume 2 (pp.3-18). ME 2000e.03066] from over 500 participants. Results showed that participants from England performed consistently better, with those from Hong Kong being next and then followed by those from the Chinese mainland. The qualitative data revealed that participants from Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland were fluent in applying routines to solve problems, but had some difficulties in offering explanations or justifications.

  • This article is based on an international collaborative study that aimed to investigate mathematical preparation of prospective elementary teachers in several selected education systems in East Asia. This article reports the Korean portion of the study. A survey instrument was developed to explore not only prospective teachers' knowledge of elementary mathematics curriculum and their beliefs in their preparation and mathematics instruction but also their subject matter knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge on the topic of fraction division. A total of 291 seniors in 3 universities participated in the survey. The results reveal these prospective teachers' strengths and weaknesses with regard to their knowledge of fraction division, and suggest that content-specific pedagogical knowledge needs to be emphasized in the teacher preparation program.
