  • Since 'teaching coding' or 'programming' classes for computational thinking (CT) education in K-12 are renowned around the world, a pre-service teachers' readiness for integrating CT into their teaching subjects is important due to the fact that CT is considered to be another 'R' from algoRitm for 21st century literacy, in addition to the traditional 3R (Reading, Writhing, and Arithmetic) [2] and CT roles to other disciplines. With this rationale, we designed a guided instruction based CT course for pre-service teachers. We show the effectiveness of the program with respect to the teachers' attitude toward combining CT into their teaching subjects, and mindset changes of learning computing connected with the career development of the teacher themselves. The research focused on the instructional methodology of teaching programing for non-Computer Science Education (CSE) majors who are not familiar with computer science for alleviating the cognitive load of first exposure to programming course under the CT concepts.

  • A debate about the importance of geometry courses has existed for years. The questions have revolved around its significance to students and teachers alike. This study looks to determine whether a teacher taking a college-level geometry course has a positive relationship with their students' algebraic reasoning skills. Using data from the High School Longitudinal Study 2009 (HSLS09: Ingels et al., 2011, 2014), it was determined that 9th-grade teachers who took a college-level geometry course had a significant positive association with their students' 11th-grade algebraic reasoning scores. This study suggests that teachers who take geometry during college have a lasting effect on their students. The implications of these findings and how they may affect higher education are discussed.

  • 2015 개정 교육과정에서는 미래 사회의 인재를 육성하기 위해 중학교에 정보 교과를 필수화하였다. 이를 지도할 정보·컴퓨터 교사를 확보하기 위해 비 정보과 교사를 대상으로 부전공연수를 실시하여 정보 교육을 할 수 있는 자격을 부여하고 있다. 이들은 일반 학습자와 다르게 교육학적 지식과 역량은 높으나, 내용 지식은 컴퓨터과학의 초보자 수준이다. 이러한 학습자의 특성을 고려하여 마이크로비트를 활용한 연수를 12차시 동안 진행하였고, 이는 비 정보과 교사의 프로그래밍 자아효능감에 긍정적인 영향을 준다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 본 연구는 단일집단에게 실험을 실시하였으므로 그 효과를 일반화하는 데 한계가 있다. 따라서 후속 연구에서는 비교 집단을 설정하는 실험 설계로 교육 효과를 검증할 필요가 있다.

  • This study aims to make a research on the secondary school education of geography and the system of teacher training in Belgium, focused on the case of Francophone Community. What has been made clear by this research can be summed up as follows. The first two years of the secondary school offer two hours of 'environment education', per week, which can be categorized into the learning of living geography, in that at this stage students learn how to observe the geographic phenomena in their daily life and pigeonhole them. The two years of the second stage of the secondary school offer one hour of 'world geography' which actually is focused on the district of Europe and Russia. The two years of the third stage of the secondary school offer an advanced course of geography which aims to teach systematically the physical geography and the human geography. A remarkable change in geographic education in Belgium is that in the wake of the Revision Act of the secondary school education, textbooks were replaced by other teaching manuals adapted to the regional condition by the teachers. This may result in a wide gap of achievements in geography according to the conditions of educational establishments. Another notable change is that the stress of geographic education tends to be placed on the ability of acquiring practical geographic knowledge rather than the geographic information itself. And it is also another marked tendency that most learning activities in geography class are conducted on the basis of student-centered and the method of investigation. Teachers of the lower secondary schools in Belgium are trained in the School of Education as multi-major teachers, such as a teacher for biology-chemistry-geography or a teacher for history-sociology-geography. Teachers of the higher secondary school education are trained in the Department of Teacher Education in universities as solo-major teachers in that they are required to know more deeply to teach an advanced course of geography in the higher secondary schools. To improve the teacher education many folds of policies are adopted. One is that many in-service teachers are officially put into services of guiding and teaching teacher training. Another is that faculty members in charge of teacher training course are trying to level up the qualifications of teachers by rigorous disciplining.
