In this study, we investigated the perception of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) education consultants (SEC) about the requirements to achieve actual results and the improvements for STEAM education consulting. Data were collected from teachers who have had previous SEC experience or have extensive experience in STEAM education. First, an open-ended questionnaire was used to conduct a survey on the requirements and improvements for the STEAM education consulting, and items were composed by analyzing the contents of these free responses, and then statistical analysis was performed by asking them to respond on the Likert scale to how much they agreed to each item. As a result of the analysis, the SEC recognized that "formation of consensus between consultants and teachers", "consultant feedback on reflection of previous consulting results" and "encouragement and support for teachers" are appeared to be the most required for STEAM education consulting to achieve actual results. As the improvements of STEAM education consulting, "sharing cases and opinions among consultants", "selection and sharing of consulting best practices", and "development of various consulting types such as open classes" received the highest agreement. Based on these results, a support plan to increase the effectiveness of STEAM consulting was proposed.

The main goal of the research is to develop instructional consulting manual to help math teachers improve classroom teaching. Improving the quality of teaching in schools is stressed as a central focus of meaningful classroom instruction and high quality education. In this research, teaching consulting was defined as an activity that covers reflection process oriented towards formative assessment and continuing professional development. Within this context, subject-specific teaching consulting and teaching professionalism with focus on PCK was reviewed. Further, the questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the current situation of teaching consulting and teachers' needs for consulting. And also, specific examples of subject-specific consulting based on our previous consulting experiences in math classes were shown. Alternative ways to improve subject teaching were derived through the conferences where consultants and consultees analyze video-taped lessons conducted by the consultees. By those results, a manual for invigorating teaching consulting was developed. The contents of the manual consists of setting conditions of teaching consulting and its implementation in the classroom teaching. The first part of the manual contains steps to establish teaching consulting system, the qualification and role of the consultant, system evaluation, etc. The second part of the manual presents the pre-preparation, prescription and implementation and follow-up management steps. Each part of the manual provides consultants with specific guidelines for each step. Finally, recommendations for making policy related to ways to invigorate teaching consulting was suggested. It is expected that specific examples and cases of subject-specific teaching consulting presented in this research will be used to narrow the gap between theory and practice of teaching consulting, and to help math, science and English teachers develop teaching professionalism.
