University teacher education programs have sought for ways of how to improve student teaching in order to supply mathematics teachers with practical theory to achieve the goals of the current educational reform in school mathematics. In this context, the purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of student teachers' teaching experience in the after-school mathematics programs and the ways of how to develop the after-school learning programs as an effective site for learning to teach based on the inquiry into student teachers' own teaching experience. For the purpose, data were collected through the interviews with the student teachers who had taught after-school mathematics class. In addition, data were collected through survey, class observation, and seminal meetings with the student teachers in order to supplement the findings from the interview analysis. Data analysis focused on the student teachers' experience with teaching in after-school mathematics classes, that is, what and how they had learned as teachers, what kinds of difficulties they encountered in their teaching and supports that they expect to improve their learning through teaching. The analysis shows that the teaching experience in the after-school programs had positively contributed to their development as future mathematics teachers. Specifically, the after-school programs provide the site for learning through teaching at the early stage of teacher education program. The after-school programs provided the students teachers for the opportunity to participate peripherally in educational practice of school. Through the participation, the student teachers developed positive attitudes toward teaching career and became to have more solid ideas about how to teach mathematics. Based on the analysis, this research provides following suggestions concerning how to improve student teaching. First, it is necessary to provide student teachers to participate into the practice of teaching at the early stage of teacher education programs. Second, it is important to give students teacher opportunity to participate in teaching at peripheral and legitimate positions. Finally, it is necessary to construct mentoring networks to support student teachers to move from a peripheral position toward a center of teaching practice.

The role of teachers has been explicitly emphasized to implement the vision of sustainable development(SD). Also, it is very important to understand the way student teachers understand SD and how they interpret their own professional task in terms of SD, usually referred to as education for sustainable development(ESD). This study investigated student teachers' perceptions of SD and ESD using group interview. Key findings include, first, that they think SD as development which does not exceed the limits of natural environment, and as wise management of resources/protection of environment for future generations. They also think SD as good thing though they don't understand the contested nature of SD. Second they think ESD as education about SD, but some student teachers say they can't explain ESD. Many student teachers prefer field trip to local examples for both elementary school students and themselves. Also they will teach only what the textbook says about SD and ESD during their school placement and as teachers. So it will be the beginning of ESD in school to include SD in the curriculum for students and student teachers. It is suggested to study student teachers' perception of SD focussing on how they think the relationship between protection of environment and economic growth.

다양한 수업의 구조와 역동성을 이해하기 위해서는, 그것이 우연한 것이든 의식적인 것이든지 간에 그러한 구조와 역동성을 교과에 관련된 구체적이고 역사적인 활동으로, 그리고 특정한 맥락 내에서 연구해야 한다. 지도교사의 실천적 지식을 실제 수업 상황에서 도제하게 되는 예비교사들의 교육실습에 대한 연구는 특히 그러하다. 이리한 관점에서 본 연구는 중등예비교사인 9명의 지리교생이 지도교사의 38시간 수업을 참관하면서 관찰한 경험을 질적으로 분석하였다. 주요 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교생들의 지도교사는 대부분 지리교육을 전공한 경력교사였으며, 2주간의 참관수업에서 교생들은 주로 지도교사의 중학교 지리수업을 참관하였다. 둘째, 지리교생들은 같은 수업을 관점에 따라 다르게 보기도 했다. 즉, 교생들은 학생들과 문답식으로 설명이 이루어지는 수업은 긍정적인 관점에서 '교사와 학생의 상호작용이 이루이지는 수업'과 자유스럽고 활기찬 수업'으로 관찰했고, 교사들의 평범하고 조용한 수업을 '차분한 수업'으로 관찰했다. 셋째, 지리교생들은 부정적인 관점에서 '학생중심의 모둠별 발표와 이에 대한 교사의 수행평가'로 이루어진 수업은 매우 산만한 수업으로 관찰했으며, 교사들의 '교과서 중심의 강의식 수업'과 '교사 중심의 일방적인 강의식 수업'은 교사와 학생의 상호작용이 이루어지지 않는 경직된 수업으로 관찰했다. 넷째, 연구자의 관점에서, 관찰된 중학교 지리수업의 가장 큰 특징은 모두 교사중심의 강의식 수업이었고, 학생과 교사의 질문이 없는 수업이었다. 요컨대, 지리교생들의 이러한 관찰 경험 중에서도 특히 '지리 수업의 실재성' 그리고 '초임교사와 경력교사의 실천적 지식'에 대한 경험은 지리 수업의 실제에 대한 교생들의 이해를 강화하거나 교정하는 계기가 될 것이다.

Therefore, the purpose of this study includes to explore metaphors about science teachers' teaching for the gifted in middle schools and classify into types of metaphors. The survey was administered and completed survey instruments by 66 science teachers for the gifted at gifted educational institutions affiliated with local offices of education and 18 science teachers at middle schools were analyzed. It was revealed that science teachers for the gifted described seven types of metaphors about their teaching with characteristics of student-centered (counsel, helper, etc.), teacher-centered (judge, captain, etc.), or student-teacher-interacted (painter, nurse, etc.) types. More than 60% of teachers described their teaching as either student-centered or student-teacher-interacted types. However, percentage of teachers for the teacher-centered and power-oriented type was higher for science teachers for the gifted (33%) than science teachers for regular students (22%). It was also found that female science teachers for the gifted showed higher percentage for teacher-centered and power-oriented (35%) than male teachers (28%) and teachers with BS degree showed higher percentage for student-centered and service-oriented type (33%) than teachers with MS degree (27%). In addition biology teachers for the gifted also were appeared to be more teacher-centered and power-oriented type (60%) than physics (21%), chemistry (6%), and earth science (33%).
