Purpose of this study is to analyze eye movements of pre-service teachers and elementary students about a visual material of the change on the lunar phases. Eye-Tracker was used for analysis for eye-fixation time and eye movement at the structure, behavior, function question on the visual material. The Results were as follows. First, the pre-service teacher checked the visual materials from a holistic perspective depending on the function questions and fixed eye-fixation on the moon of the behavior question concerned. On the contrary, elementary school student only checked function of the moon located in the upper part and eye-fixation focus was spread here and there regardless of the questions. Second, the pre-service teacher gazed at the sun, earth and moon in a consecutive order depending on the questions to identify their spatial relations and checked location of the moon related to the question. On the contrary, the elementary school student did not view relations between earth, sun and moon from a spatial perspective. These findings indicate that the pre-service teacher conjures up the mechanism of the change on the lunar phases and confirms it in visual materials by visualizing change on the lunar phase model from earth's point of view while the elementary school student fails to take advantage of visual materials to visualize it from earth's point of view.

Teacher written feedback on student compositions has received tremendous attention in second language (L2) writing research. Notwithstanding the importance of understanding both teachers' and students' perspectives on the feedback process, much of the feedback research has only looked into one-side of the story - adopting either the teacher's or the student's perspective. The current study is an attempt to look into both sides of the story by examining the types of written feedback that students prefer, the extent to which students' preferences and teachers' actual feedback practice overlap, and the extent to which student perceptions of teacher feedback coordinate teacher self-reflections on their feedback practice. Three English composition classes (3 teachers and 46 students) at a university participated in this study. It analyzed student and teacher data from questionnaires and teacher written feedback on student compositions. The results showed that students' preference for feedback on global and local issues varied across the three composition classes. This is partly a consequence of how students perceived the type of feedback that their teachers practiced. Teacher self-reflection on and student perception of teacher written-feedback generally coordinated. These findings are discussed in light of how contextual factors affect learner perception of teacher written feedback and underscore the need for examining students' reactions to feedback and teacher self-reflection.

This study investigated elementary and secondary mathematics teachers' views on: (1) Requirements for good mathematics teaching (2) what professional development programs and supports are needed for these requirements. In particular, this study analyzed the common and difference between school levels and teaching experiences. For it, we developed questionnaire and the questionnaire was anonymously answered by one-hundred-five elementary and secondary mathematics teachers. We suggested implications related to professional development programs for mathematics teachers based on common and difference between school levels and teaching experiences.

In this work we present a study undertaken with in-service mathematics teachers of primary and secondary school where we describe and analyze the didactical competences needed to implement an innovative design in geometry applying Van Hiele's models. The relationship between such competences and an ideal teacher profile is also studied. Teachers' epistemology is established in terms of didactical competences and we can see that this epistemology is an element that helps us understand the difficulties that teachers face in practice when implementing an innovative curriculum, in this case, geometry based on the Van Hiele theory.

In this commentary, I examined the implications of Existentialism for science teaching and teacher education. Existentialist thoughts and premises can be used to explore the human element in an educational system. Before emphasizing the pragmatic and technical aspects of teaching, we need to rethink why we teach and recognize our learners as unique beings in a continual process of becoming. By incorporating the existential perspective into curriculums and pedagogies of science education, we can help learners to make their existences and experiences meaningful. This paper consists of three parts. In the first part, I drew on relevant aspects of Existentialism and its implications on the views of the learner. In the second part, I examined the competency-based curriculum in light of Existentialism. Existentialism aims, in part, to develop an educated person who possesses a clear sense of personal identity, a critical attitude, and the inclination to be a life-long learner, and so on. These characteristics are consistent with the implications developed from the competency-based curriculum. In the third part, I explored pedagogical activities consistent with existentialist thinking the ultimate goal of which is to create authentic individuals who can take responsibility for being humans. In the conclusion, I discussed how existentialist ways of thinking and teaching call for the science teacher's reflective practices, where the teacher needs to integrate personal and professional knowledge as the situation demands.

본 연구는 초등예비교사들이 수학평가문항을 개발하고 적용하는 과정을 분석하여, 예비교사들이 개발한 문항이 검토 과정에서 어떻게 수정되는지 그리고 문항을 적용한 결과를 해석하면서 예비교사들의 평가에 대한 관점은 어떻게 변화하였는지를 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 평가문항의 변화 양상은 주로 출제의도를 명확하게 표현하기, 교육과정에 제시된 용어와 기호의 사용, 수학적 오류의 수정, 보기의 재구성 및 재배치 등으로 나타났다. 또한 예비교사들의 평가에 대한 관점이 변화되었는데, 평가 과정에서 학생 수준을 고려하는 것의 중요성 인식, 좋은 평가문항에 대한 인식 전환 등으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate young children's perceptions of a teacher assistant robot, IrobiQ. in a kindergarten classroom. The subjects of this study were 23 6-year-olds attending to G kindergarten located in E city, Korea, where the teacher assistant robot had been in operation since Oct. 2008. Each child responded to questions assessing the child's perceptions of IrobiQ's identity regarding four domains : it's biological, intellectual, emotional and social identity. Some questions asked the child to affirm or deny some characteristics pertaining to the robot and the other questions asked the reasons for the answer given. The results indicated that while majority of children considered an IrobiQ not as a biological entity, but as a machine, they thought it could have an emotion and be their playmate. The implications of these results are two folds : firstly, they force us to reconsider the traditional ontological categories regarding intelligent service robots to understand human-robot interaction and secondly, they open up an ecological perspective on the design of teacher assistant robots for use with young children in early childhood education settings.

과학 수업은 과학 교사와 학생들이 만나 가르치고 학습하며 과학 교육을 수행해 나가는 출발점이 된다. 따라서 성공적이고 좋은 과학 수업이 이루어지도록 하는 데 교사와 학생은 물론 학부모, 교육 행정가, 과학 교육 연구자 등 다양한 교육 주체가 과학 수업에 관심을 가지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 과학 교사의 학습지도 능력 중에서 어떤 것이 중요한지에 대해 알아보기 위하여, 다양한 교육 주체를 대상으로 설문 조사를 하였다. 조사 결과 학생들은 '수업의 진행'과 '교사의 태도'를 중요시하는 반면, 현직 교사는 '학습자 특성 및 교과내용 분석'과 '교사 학생 상호작용'을 가장 중요시하며, 예비 교사와 학부모는 '교사 학생 상호작용'과 '수업의 진행'을 강조한다. 또한 교육 행정가는 '교수 학습 전략의 수립'을, 과학 교육 연구자는 '교육과정의 이해 및 교수 학습 방법 개선 노력'을 '학습자 특성 및 교과내용 분석'과 함께 강조한다. 이 연구 결과는 교육 주체 사이에 과학 교육에 대한 커뮤니케이션에서 과학 수업에 대한 서로를 관점을 이해할 수 있는 기초 정보로 활용될 수 있다.
