The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of instructional multi-media in Home Economics Education perceived by teachers. The data for this research were attained from 139 middle & high school teachers of Home Economics. The data were analyzed by frequency of distribution, mean, stand deviation. t-test and analysis of variance, scheffe test with SPSSWin 7.5 program. The results of this study are as follows: The effects of instructional multi-media were composed of four dimensions in this study; need, frequency of use, pros and cons. 1. From these four dimensions, the need has the highest and the frequency of use has the lowest score. 2. The effects of instructional multi-media are significantly related to personal & environmental characteristics. 1)Need of the instructional multi-media effects is significantly different according to age, experience of computer education and possession of a computer at home. Low and high age groups are higher in the need of the instructional multi-media effects score than middle group age and the more experience of computer education and possession of a computer at home are higher in that score. 2) Frequency of use is significantly different according to LAN system in school. The higher score of frequency of use is in a LAN system’s school. 3) Pros of the instructional multi-media effects is significantly different according to the level of education, experience of computer education and the type of school. Undergraduate high school teachers and the lower o experience of computer education are higher in the pros of the instructional multi-media effects score. 4) Cons of the instructional multi-media effects is significantly different according to the level of education. Graduate teachers are higher in the cons of the instructional multi-media effects score.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship pattern among the children's negative and aimless behaviors, and the variables related to teachers (characteristics, stress, efficacy, and quality of teachers' behaviors). Subjects were 190, 5 year-old children and 48 teachers at 45 child care centers. The children's negative and aimless behaviors were observed with time sampling method. The quality of teachers' interaction behaviors was rated by the Assessment Scales for Day Care Programs during the free play activities. Teachers responded to the Scale for the Teachers' Job Stress and Teachers' Efficacy. The data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlations, multiple regressions, and partial correlations. The results were as follows. The teachers' experience and the quality of teachers' behaviors significantly explained the children's negative behaviors. The quality of teachers' behaviors significantly explained the children's aimless behaviors. Lastly, the quality of teachers' behaviors mediated the relationship between the teachers' job stress and the children's aimless behaviors.

In order to improve the quality of student teachers' practicum, this study analysed the current situation of student teachers' field practice in child care centers. The study also assessed the practicum implementation case of H Cyber University. First, this research examined the characteristics of practicum implementation in universities. Second, a variety of strategies based on a blended model, on/off-line lectures, professor-student interaction, university-daycare centers collaboration, e-mentoring, and student teachers' portfolios that reduce the problems of student teachers' training, were explored. Finally, the practicum implementation case that adopted these factors was assessed. The results from this case study implied that student teachers' practicums based on a blended model can be an alternative method for problem-solving in existing student teachers' training in universities.

The purpose of this research is to study the performance assessment made by high school home economics teachers : their awareness and attitudes toward the assessment correlate with the qualitative output of the executions of it. as well s to determine how their awareness and attitudes toward the assesment correlate with the qualitative output of the executions of their performance assessments. The research has yielded the following results : 1. The attitudinal score shows above average of 58.7/90. By the sub-factors. awareness of the characteristics of performance assessment is 20.6/30 : the favorable attitudinal score is at 20.0/30. the behavioral attention at 9.5/15. and the effects of performance assessment on the teachers and the classes at 8.6/15. 2. In a single semester. the highest frequency of executing performance assessment is between 1 to 2 times (58.7%). and practical skill test is proven to be the most frequently used category at 79.9%. 3. The correlation between the overall attitude on performance assessment and the quality of actual performance assessment executed is high. indicating superior quality of performance assessment. which is directly proportionate to the enhanced attitude of teachers on performance assessment.

In present study, using 1572 low-income families and 266 Head Start teachers from Family and Child Experiences Survey (FACES) in the U.S., we examined the effects of mothers' reading and the characteristics of interaction between teacher-child interaction on 4-and 5-year-olds' cognitive development represented by their verbal and numerical abilities. Frequencies of mothers' reading at home consistently predicted higher scores of children's Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and Woodcock Johnson Applied Problems. Teachers' sensitivity and permissiveness in their interactions with children in classroom were positively related to children's verbal abilities and teachers' sensitivity predicted better numerical abilities of children after controlling for mothers' reading and the characteristics of family and teacher. The findings shed light on the contributions of teacher behaviors and familial factors to children's cognitive development calling for attention to the need for parent education on cognitively stimulating family environments and continuing education for early childhood teachers focusing on quality interactions with young children.

이 연구에서는 중학교 기술가정 교과서 주생활 영역에 제시된 개별 활동자료의 형태와 각 개별 자료에 대한 교사의 인식을 알아보았다. 자료는 중학교 6개 교과서 주생활단원 '주거공간의 활용'과 '실내환경과 설비' 중단원에 제시된 활동자료 $9\sim14$개 각각에 대해 교과서별로 $30\sim69$명의 담당교사 총 256명이 응답하였다. 이 단원을 가르쳐 본 조사대상 교사들은 주생활단원을 비교적 중요하다고 인식하고 있는 반면 이에 대한 자신의 배경지식은 다소 부족하다고 인식하였다. 주생활 영역 자료는 본문이나, 참고자료, 활동자료에 비해 그림자료 활용을 더 중요하게 인식하고 있었다. 제시된 활동자료의 자료특성을 자료형태(그림, 표, 보충 글, 복합형태, 문장만 제시), 비문장 자료형태의 성격(이미지, 설명적, 해석적, 복합성격), 활동유형(학습내용확인형, 자료분석사고형, 외부자료조사형, 복합활동형)으로 분류했을 때, 자료형태에서는 문장만 제시한 자료형태가, 비문장 자료형태의 성격에서는 설명적 성격의 자료가, 활동유형에서는 자료분석사고형의 활동자료가 많이 제시되어 있었다. 교과서별 활동자료 수는 활동유형별 보다 자료형태나 자료형태의 성격에 따른 차이가 더 커서 집필자에 따라 특정 자료형태의 활동자료를 다수 제시한 경향이 있었다. 자료특성별 주생활 영역 활동자료 각각에 대한 인식은 전반적으로 활동자료형태별 인식의 차이가 활동유형별이나 자료형태의 성격별 인식의 차이보다 더 컸다. 자료특성별로 교사의 흥미와 학생의 흥미가 유사했으나 대체로 교사 자신의 흥미보다 학생의 흥미를 낮게 보고 있었다. 활동자료에 대한 교사의 주관적 배경지식수준과 내용적합성 보다 수준적합성을 더 낮게 인식하고 있었다 가장 긍정적으로 나타난 자료특성별 활동자료는 자료형태면에서는 그림을 제시한 활동자료였고, 비문장 자료형태의 성격은 해석적이거나 복합성격의 활동자료였으며, 활동유형은 학습내용확인형이나 복합활동형 활동자료였다. 이러한 활동자료특성별 교사의 인식은 교과서에 실린 자료수와 관련이 적었다. 활동자료에 대한 교사의 인식에 대한 이 연구에 이어 개별 활동자료가 현장에서 실제 얼마나 활용되고 있는지를 밝히는 후속연구가 필요하겠다.
