Throughout the century, based on the precedent set by Flexner in the United States, almost every subsequent report on the reform of medical education has pointed out the need for more prevention-oriented teaching in the curriculum. This has been particularly so in countries like Korea where the basic public health services have been so important for the improvement of health of the people. And, in fact, preventive medicine and public health have contributed a great deal to the prevention of communicable diseases and prolongation of life expectancy. Recently, however, along with the educational reform that emphasizing the interdisciplinary teaching, integration of basic science and clinical education, and centralization of responsibility for the medical education curriculum, concerns are being voiced by preventive medicine educators. These concerns are primarily centered around the fear that the implementation of interdisciplinary, centrally administered courses would result in a weakening of content and teaching expertise as well as a loss of departmental power and control. This paper foresees that preventive medicine and public health will be more important in Korea in the future and proposes that preventive medicine educators will have to step forward and turn the challenges of curricula restructuring into opportunities to expand the role of preventive medicine in the curricula of their institutions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate misconceptions regarding the structure of flowers and the function of the course based on the 'Flower' section of 5th grade elementary school science courses. It also sought to investigate how misconceptions are changed before and after the application of a Driver learning model, and finally analysing any differences in the correction of misconceptions. A questionnaire was created for 199 5th grade elementary school pupils. The major results before and after using an applied Driver learning mode teaching plan are as follows: In the response for questions, 13.6% and 14.5% of misconceptions were corrected for male and female pupils, respectively. For rural and urban pupils, 14.8% and 11.2% of misconceptions were corrected, respectively. In the comparison of male and female pupils according to the reasons for selection of responses before and after using an applied Driver learning model teaching plan, 27.8% of male and 30.0% of female pupils scientific conceptions showed improvement. For rural and urban schools, 26.6% and 32.2% of scientific conceptions were improved, respectively. Data from this study may help teachers to reconsider their own conceptions regarding the study of the flower as it is presently conducted in elementary school.

In this research, we investigated the historical development and ways of improvement of the teacher employment test (TET, hereafter) in Korea. This paper consists of three parts. The first part details the secondary science teacher education system in Korea. The second part elaborates upon the development of the TET since 1990's. The third part provides conclusion by addressing ways to improve science teacher education and employment systems in Korea. After all, the keen competition for teacher education and the demanding entry test ensure that secondary science teachers are selected from a pool of candidates with high academic achievement. Korean teacher employment system in general places more weight on subject knowledge. Although we cannot simply conclude that Korean science teachers must have profound knowledge in the subject matter and are competent in pedagogy, it stands to reason that the teachers could be more competent in performing their roles than those of many western countries with an acute shortage of teachers. We also suggested future directions and ways of improvement regarding teacher education and the TET in Korea.

이 연구에서는 삼구의를 활용한 기존의 수업 방식으로는 학생들이 달의 위상변화의 원리를 정확하게 이해할 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 교사들 조차도 제대로 된 이해가 부족한 채 지도하고 있음에 주목하였다. 따라서 삼구의를 활용한 달의 위상변화 학습에서 초등학생들이 이해하고 있는 유형을 161명의 응답 결과를 토대로 분류하고, 기존의 연구에서 개발된 학습 자료를 재구성한 교수 학습 방법을 활용함으로써 그들의 이해 유형이 어떻게 변하였는지 확인하였으며, 129명 학생들의 학업성취도에는 어떠한 효과를 미치는지 검증하였다. 그리고 교사와 학생 총 8명을 대상으로 새로운 교수 학습 방법에 대해 어떠한 생각을 갖고 있는지 심층 면담을 통해 확인하였다. 그 결과, 학생들은 크게 C 유형과 W 유형을, 세부적으로는 W1, W2, W3, W4, W5 유형으로 나눌 수 있었는데 보름달 보다는 초승달과 상현달의 위상 원리를 더 어려워하였다. 그리고 재구성한 교수 학습 방법을 활용해 보충수업을 실시한 65명의 실험집단 학생들이 지도서의 내용으로 보충수업을 실시한 64명의 비교집단 학생들보다 학업성취도 사후 검사뿐만 아니라 추후 검사에서도 효과가 있었다. 심층 면담에서도 교사 학생 모두 이 연구에서 제시한 교수 학습 방법에 대해 긍정적인 답변을 해 주었다. 결론적으로 이 연구를 통해 달의 위상변화와 관련된 활동을 삼구의를 활용해 학습할 때는 결과만을 암기하는 학습에서 벗어나 원리를 정확하게 이해할 수 있도록 초등학생들에게 도움을 주는 단계별 학습 자료를 적극 활용할 것을 강조하였다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify the effects of a newly developed instructional coaching program regarding Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) for teachers. Methods: Seventy teachers participated in this study involving a nonequivalent control group and a pretest-posttest design. The instructional coaching program consisted of eight 60-minute sessions. The program was developed through a theoretical development program involving six steps. To evaluate the effects of the program, data were collected through self-report questionnaires including the Knowledge Scale of Attention Deficit Disorder, Attitude Scale of Primary School Teachers Experiencing Students with ADHD, Practice Scale of Educational Intervention Activity, and the Korean ADHD Rating Scale. Data were analyzed with an independent t test, a chi-square test, and an ANCOVA using SPSS WIN version 20. Results: The intervention program consisted of 3 sectors, 8 subjects, and 24 content items. The experimental group showed a significant improvement in attitudes toward ADHD (F=22.83, p<.001). In addition, teacher's knowledge regarding ADHD (F=7.16, p=.010) and the implementation of instructional interventions (F=4.29, p=.043) improved. Further, teachers reported a reduction in children's ADHD-related behavior (F=4.34, p=.041). Results showed that the coaching program made a positive contribution to teaching skills and understanding of school-age children with ADHD. Conclusion: The instructional coaching program was well structured and significantly improved not only teachers'attitudes, knowledge, and teaching skills but also the behavior of children with ADHD in class. Therefore, the program is recommended as a means of facilitating teaching and managing children with ADHD in class.
