The purpose of this study was to examine what factors affect the construction of preservice white mathematics teachers' racial identities and the relationship between their racial identities and Culturally Relevant Teaching (CRT) practices. We examined five white female preservice teachers who enrolled in an elementary mathematics methods course at a private university in the US. We collected data consisting of lesson plans, semi-structured interviews, and reflection of a taught lesson in the 2018 fall term and examined them using qualitative research methods. We found that preservice teachers' racial identities were affected by their backgrounds, K-12 school experiences, and practicum school environment. We also found a relationship between teachers' sensitivity to racial issues and their endorsement of CRT strategies. The findings also revealed that the relationships were mediated by practicum school contexts. Based on the findings, we provided practical implications for the teacher education programs.

이 연구는 현직 초등 과학 교사의 인식론적 신념에 대한 개인 변인의 주 효과와 상호작용 효과를 확인하였다. 수도권 지역의 338명의 초등 과학 교사들을 대상으로 성별, 교직 경력, 인식론적 신념에 대한 설문을 분석한 결과 인식론적 신념은 성별과 교직 경력, 그리고 성별과 교직 경력의 상호작용에서 모두 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 성별에 따라서는 여교사가 남교사보다 지식이 고도로 통합되어 있으며, 배움에서 결과보다 과정을 중요시하는 것으로 나타났다. 교직 경력에 따라서는 대체로 고경력 교사가 지식은 통합되어 있으며 끊임없이 진화하고, 지식은 개인의 추론에 의해 획득되며 개인과 외부의 상호작용을 통해 정당화되는 것으로 보고 이 과정에서 결과보다 과정을 중요시하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 저경력 교사들이 다른 집단에 비해 학습에 있어서 노력이 필수 불가결한 것으로 인식하는 모습을 보였다. 성별과 교직 경력의 상호작용에 따라서는 초등교사들은 성별과 관계 없이 교직 경력이 높을수록 지식이 통합되어 있으며 끊임없이 진화한다고 믿는 것으로 나타났지만, 학습 능력에 대해서 저경력 남교사들은 학습 능력은 타고나는 것으로 보았지만, 저경력 여교사들은 학습 능력은 경험을 통해 발달하는 것으로 믿고 있었으며, 학습 과정에 대해서 고경력 남교사들은 학습에 있어서 결과를 중요시하는 반면, 고경력 여교사들은 결과보다 과정을 중요시하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 바탕으로, 교수학습의 질 향상을 목적으로 하는 많은 연수들의 설계 시 교사의 개인적 특성을 고려한다면, 교사들의 과학 인식론적 신념을 발달하는 데보다 효과적인 기회를 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

Teachers' perception on educational attributes of new technologies can be dealt with a critical factor for enhancing educational effectiveness through using new technologies in education. The present study attempts to identify teachers' perceptions on educational attributes of cutting edge technologies established through a government-driven educational agenda, "The rural public school model", To achieve this purpose, e-survey was conducted for analyzing the differences of teachers' perceptions on educational attributes of TPCs, e-Whiteboards, and Fastel according to teachers' working areas, school levels, teaching experiences, and training experiences. Participants were 123 elementary school teachers (male:62, female:61) and 66 middle school teachers (male:37, female:29) who are working in the rural public model schools (Gyeonggi: 29, Chungcheong: 12, Jeolla: 30, Gyeongsang: 88, Gangwon: 22, Jeju: 8). The results are as follows: firstly, there were statistically significant differences according to regions, but no significant difference according to school levels; secondly, significant differences in teacher's perceptions on educational attributes of TPCs and Fastel according to teacher's teaching experiences were not shown; thirdly, differences in teachers' perceptions according to their training experiences were meaningfully significant in terms of three new technologies, Based on research results, the implications and further studies are suggested in order to increase educational effectiveness and efficiency for using the technologies.
