Teachers' intervention in small groups is a research area that needs more research attention. Ehrenfeld and Horn (2020) identified teachers' group work monitoring routines that consist of four recurrent talk moves: 1) Initiation, 2) Entry, 3) Focus, and 4) Exit. To better understand prospective teachers' (PTs) intervention in small groups in mathematics classrooms, I investigated how PTs' intervention actions and purposes are related to the monitoring routines, particularly, in terms of Focus moves. I analyzed 26 PTs' responses to four written scenarios, each of which depicts interactions among students in a small group. I identified 1) types of PTs' math talk, 2) types of PTs' non-math talk, 3) types of intervention purposes, and 4) patterns of intervention actions and purposes by scenario. This study contributes to understanding PTs' intervention actions and purposes in mathematics instruction.

This paper presents a case study of the effectiveness of debate class in promoting speaking skills of advanced learners. The researcher adopted English debate techniques in an English speaking class during four-week teacher training program and investigated how teachers responded to the new technique. Forty-five middle and high school teachers participated in the study and classroom observation, pre-survey, post-survey, and focus group interviews were used as the major research methods. The teacher pre-survey results presented that teachers prefer a conversation class where they can directly acquire proper sentence patterns and speaking strategies rather than spend time in performing communicative events. The results of the focus group interview and post-survey confirmed that a debate class can meet this specific teachers' needs. Most teachers responded positively to the debate classes since: 1) debate techniques are relatively new ideas to Korean teachers; 2) debate techniques require speed and accuracy in speech; thus teachers could learn to present their ideas logically and efficiently in a limited time through repeated argument exercises. The study result implies that debate technique can be an effective vehicle in an EFL context to promote advanced learners' logical thinking skills and logical English sentence structures.

The purpose of this study was qualitatively conducted for getting the answer of this problem by searching the beliefs of mathematics teachers with experience in technology and the factors that influences these beliefs. The participants in this study consist of eight teachers and one university professor having technological experiences from three years to ten years with a higher degree than M.A. The data was collected through focused group interviews for twice and individual interview as well. Data analysis was completed through several readings of transcripts and then main themes were derived by classifying, comparing, and contrasting codings. The result of this study showed that teachers with the experiences of technological tools have the concrete belief that technology helps both students and teachers understand mathematical concepts and enhance various representational activities and motivations. The result also identified the impeding factors of three beliefs of mathematics teachers. From these beliefs and factors, this study would suggest how to help teachers hold their beliefs about using technologies to improve their teachings and students' learning.

First, we tested science anxiety test to these teachers, and then chose 50 teachers that are 25 teacher of highest score and 25 teachers of lowest score. Next, we chose 1848 students that 50 teachers take charge. The results are as follows. 1. The children learned from lowest scored teacher got the higher point than the children learned from highest scored teacher in science achievement test. 2. Children's science attitude have a little differences in 4 sub-boundary area but totally lower science anxiety group have higher score than higher science anxiety group. 3. Another variables such as grade, living district, teachers' training experience give influence to the children's attitude to science.

본 연구는 유아교사의 사회 인구학적 요인과 내적 요인인 자아탄력성 수준에 따라 유아의 문제행동을 인식하고 지도하는데 차이가 있는지를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 연구 결과에 따르면, 유아교사의 문제 행동에 대한 인식 정도는 2년제 대학 졸업 이상의 교사 집단이 기타 집단보다, 유치원 교사 집단이 어린이집 교사 집단 보다, 그리고 자아탄력성 상위 집단이 하위 집단 교사보다 높게 나타났다. 한편, 유아의 문제 행동 지도 전략과 관련하여 하위 영역에서의 차이가 확인되었다. 구체적으로, 교사의 연령과 경력이 많을수록 또한 학력이 높은 경우 긍정적 예방전략 I를 많이 행하였으며 반면 부정적 반응전략은 유치원 교사가 어린이집 교사보다 더 많이 행하는 것으로 나타났다. 끝으로, 교사의 자아탄력성 수준에 따른 유아 문제 행동 지도 전략 사용은 모든 하위 영역에서 집단 간 차이를 보여준다. 설명하건대, 자아탄력성이 높은 교사 집단이 낮은 집단에 비해 유아의 문제 행동에 대해 더 많이 긍정적 예방전략과 긍정적 반응전략을 행하고 있는 반면 부정적 반응전략은 자아탄력성 하위 집단의 교사가 상위집단의 교사보다 더 많이 행하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 교사의 유아 문제 행동 지도와 관련하여 교사의 연령과 학력 그리고 자아탄력성 수준에 따른 차이를 보여줌으로 이러한 변인을 고려한 교사 재교육 프로그램과 교사 양성 프로그램 개발 및 실시의 필요성을 시사한다.

Meals served in school cafeteria for teachers were evaluated in terms of calorie and nutrient level and food composition. Daily energy expenditure of teachers was compared with caloric content of the meal. The followings are results of the study. 1) Twelve different foodstuffs were used in each meal of school cafeteria for teachers. The average amount of food served meal was 396.0g. The ratio of animal food to total food served was 13.2%. The meal was consisted of 44.8% of basic food group 4, 34.7% of basic food group 3, 19.3% of basic food group 1, 0.4% of basic food group 2 and 0.9% of basic food group 5. 2) The average caloric content of the meal was 629.9Kcal. The caloric ratio of carbohydrate, protein and fat to total calorie was 72.4% : 15.3% : 12.3% respectively. The ratio of animal protein to total protein was 43.2%. In meals of school cafeteria, the level o fall nutrients except iron and niacin was lower than RDA for male, whereas the level of all nutrients except protein and niacin was lower than RDA for female. 3) The average daily energy expenditures of teachers were 2,017.2Kcal for male and 1,735.3Kcal for female. The meal in school cafeteria supplied 93.7% of daily energy expenditure of male teachers and 110.0% of daily energy expenditure of female teachers. When planning meals in school cafeteria, recommended allowance, actual energy expenditure and food preference of teachers should be considered to improve the quality of meals. Also it seems desirable to give teachers the nutritional education for taking balanced diet.
