The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of forth grades in elementary the environmental-friendly attitude by STSE in elementary lesson. To verify research problem, the subject of this study were forth-grade students selected from two classes of an elementary school located in Ulsan. Post-test showed following results: the research group showed a significant improvement in the environment-friendly attitude of cognitive domain and behavior domain compared with the comparison group. In conclusion, STSE program was more effective than the teacher map based teaching model on environment-friendly attitude. However, since the study has a limit on an objet of the study and the applied curriculum, the additional studies need to be conducted with an extended comparative group and curriculum.

본 연구는 ICT를 활용하여 수학과 교수 학습 과정안을 만드는 과정을 통하여 교원 양성기관의 교육과정에 ICT활용 교육방법의 도입과 함께 예비 수학 교사들의 ICT활용 능력을 키우고자 하는데 목적이 있다. 또한 이로써 ICT활용 교수 학습 과정안을 학교 수업에 적용함으로써 단순히 방법적 측면에서의 도구적 교체가 아닌 교육의 패러다임 변화를 통한 학습과정의 질적 개선을 추구하는데 궁극적인 목적을 둔다 수학교육론시간에 학부생을 대상으로 직접 ICT활용 교수 학습 과정안을 만들었으며 중학교 수학 1, 2학년 교과 내용을 211개의 교수학습 과정안으로 개발하였다. 이를 위하여 교과서 및 교육과정 분석 교수학습 모형정립 등의 과정을 거쳤으며 내용적 연구와 함께 과정안의 구현을 위한 기술공학적 실습 과정을 병행하였다.

The purpose of this study is to contribute research on mathematics education by reviewing earlier studies on teachers' communities. To do so, I searched literature on various kinds of teacher community such as study groups, video clubs, and lesson study. Teacher community has been studied for professional development of teachers and there existed many studies that teacher community help teachers develop their professionals in real. From reviewing literature, I suggest that researchers in Korea need to study about teachers' communities and to find ways using communities in teacher development programs.

The open approach to teaching school mathematics in the United States is an outcome of the collaboration of Japanese and U. S. researchers. We examine the approach by illustrating its three aspects: 1) Open process (there is more than one way to arrive at the solution to a problem; 2) Open-ended problems (a problem can have several of many correct answers), and 3) What the Japanese call 'from problem to problem' or problem formulation (students draw on their own thinking to formulate new problems). Using our understanding of the Japanese open approach to teaching mathematics, we adapt selected methods to teach mathematics more effectively in the United States. Much of this approach is new to U. S. mathematics teachers, in that it has teachers working together in groups on lesson plans, and through a series of discussions and revisions, results in a greatly improved, effective plan. It also has teachers actively observing individual students or groups of students as they work on a problem, and then later comparing and discussing the students' work.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the use of calculators in elementary school mathematics education. For this purpose, we established the subject matters of the research as folloows; (1) to develop the lesson plan and the students' activity sheet related to the use of calculators. (2) to analyze the effects of the use of calculators when we applied the materials developed. Four classes of sixth grade students were sampled two elementary schools in D city. Two of them were assigned to the calculator group and the others to traditional group. The experiment was conducted for 10 class times. Two kinds of test instruments were used: pretest and post test. The pretest scores guaranteed that both groups were homogeneous. Post-test was used to identify the effect of use of calculator and the post-test scores were analyzed by t-test. We also used questionnaire to identify the students' change of attitude toward mathematics. The results of this study as fellows: (1) The calculator group got scores significantly higher than the traditional group on the test. (2) The students' attitude in calculator group was changed a little positively.

This article explores how mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) engaged in collaborative inquiry into the microteaching experiences of preservice teachers (PSTs), ultimately developing a noticing framework through collective MTE inquiry. We delve into the specifics of what MTEs notice focusing on three emerging categories of noticing on PST's microteaching videos-lesson structure, task quality, and teaching practices. Each category, along with MTEs' noticing within these components, is elaborated through vignettes. This approach positions MTEs' noticing as a crucial element in the overarching vision to enhance the teaching practices of PSTs.

The aim of this current study is to survey and analyze the degree of concern and difficult of elementary school teachers in elementary school science classes, and providing the results to teachers as a basic reference to improve their scientific specialties. As a result, firstly, the degree of concern of elementary school teacher in science class is more than normal level. Secondly, the degree of concern in science class differs dependent on environmental factors. Next, the degree of difficulty about science class was under normal level. Among area surveyed, physical and psychological environment were lower compared with other areas, and the difficulty in evaluation of class result was comparably higher than others. At fourth, teacher's degree of difficulty in science class was dependent on environment factors, but not on gender. Finally, there was reverse correlation between degree of concern and the degree of difficulty of elementary school teachers in science class. Further, the degree of concern in student knowledge showed more significant reverse correlation with all of area tested.

The current study aims to identify factors associated with private tutoring of college students in Korea. For this purpose, this study used the Korean Education and Employment Panel survey, which contains items regarding whether or not college students receive private tutoring as well as the monthly costs of private lessons. The current study focuses on private English lessons due to the very low response rates of other types of private tutoring. For the analysis, the 5th wave of KEEP collected in 2008 was selected, and a Heckman selection model was employed, including three categories of variables: individual, school, and parent/household factors. The results have revealed that for the selection model (receiving private English tutoring or not), having received private lessons in high school, gender, and level of satisfaction regarding the respondent's current university were significant. In terms of the outcome model (cost for private English tutoring in college), university admission type (rolling vs. regular), living with parents, school type (4-yr university vs. others), being in debt to cover private lesson fees in high school, and monthly household income had significant effects. This article also discusses the results and implications for future research and policy makers.

In this study we aimed to find out if a mathematics lesson with Jigsaw model can help to change such negative mathematical affective characteristic to a positive one. The results of the study were as in the following. First, the mathematics lessons applied Jigsaw model can help to inspire curiosity and motivation of students. During the lessons, communication among students was vitalized. Such communication inspired learner's curiosity and learning motivation. The expert group and home group activities in the Jigsaw model made the learner's question-answering activities more instantaneous and frequent. Second, the mathematics lessons applied Jigsaw model can help students to become aware of the value of mathematical concepts and formula.
