21세기 들어 컴퓨터와 통신 기술의 급속한 발전과 정부의 보급 의지로 인하여 정보기기 및 통신 장비는 급속한 발전을 이루게 되었다. 이에 정부에서는 중ㆍ고등학교의 컴퓨터 교육을 강화하기 위한 방안으로 현재 고등학교에서 추진하고 있는 정보소양인증 제도를 중학교까지 확대 시행하고 학교 교육과정에서 적극 반영하도록 하여 중 고등학교에서 컴퓨터 교육을 필수적으로 실시하도록 유도하고 있으며 현재 시행되고 있는 제7차 교육 과정에서는 모든 교과의 수업에서 10% 이상에서 컴퓨터를 비롯한 정보통신기술 활용을 목표로 각 교과별 정보통신기술 활용 내용을 개발하여 교과서 편찬시 반영하도록 하여 이를 보급하려 하고 있다. 또한 2001년부터 컴퓨터 교육이 필수화됨에 따라 초등학교에서도 교사 교육 및 시설의 확충 등 체계적이고 지속적인 지원을 하기 위하여 노력하고 있다. 그러나 정보보호 측면에서 이들 교재를 분석하여 보면 그 내용과 구성이 너무나도 미흡하며 보강이 필요한 것이 현실이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 현 초등학교 교과서를 분석하여 담고 있는 내용과 이를 개선하기 위한 방법을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study was to monitor evaluation in science education at primary and secondary school in Korea. In order to do this, the survey was administered. The subject was 518 teachers; 292 elementary school teachers, 110 middle school science teachers and 116 general high school science teachers. It was found that the ratio of paper examination increased while that of performance evaluation decreased according to the grade of school. In the science paper examination, the ratio of selection type item was higher than that of supply type item, and the ratio of item belonging to knowledge area was higher than that of item belonging to the inquiry area regardless of the grade of school, teaching career, and teacher's gender. The teachers recognized the necessity of supply type item, but they suffered from the reliability of the result of that item. And it was hard for them to do performance evaluation because it took much time and effort. This study suggested that the high-quality in-service teacher training be provided and laboratory assistants who help the science experiment and grading test papers be employed in order to fulfil the performance evaluation and increase the ratio of supply type item and items belonging to the inquiry area.

In high school mathematics class, to subtract a number b from a, we add the additive inverse of b to a and to divide a number a by a non-zero number b, we multiply a by the multiplicative inverse of b, which is the formal approach for operations of real numbers. This article aims to give a connection between the intuitive models in middle school mathematics class and the formal approach in high school for teaching operations of negative integers. First, we highlight the teaching methods(Hwang et al, 2008), by which subtraction of integers is denoted by addition of integers. From this methods and activities applying the counting model, we give new teaching methods for the rule that the product of negative integers is positive. The teaching methods with horizontal mathematization(Treffers, 1986; Freudenthal, 1991) of operations of integers, which is based on consistently applying the intuitive model(number line model, counting model), will remove the gap, which is exist in both teachers and students of middle and high school mathematics class. The above discussion is based on students' cognition that the number system in middle and high school and abstracted number system in abstract algebra course is formed by a conceptual structure.

This study aims at developing and evaluating the cohousing teaching/learning plan for middle and high school. The plan was developed into 5 stages such as data collection and analysis, design, development, implement, and evaluation_ It was composed of 3 lessons with various teaching materials; the concept and necessity of cohousing, spatial composition, and making a cohousing village as the main theme. The 3 home economics teachers carried out the plan for 28 classrooms (1125 students) in 2 middle and I high school, during 23th, Aug., to 17th, Sep. 2010 in Kyunggido. The high level of understanding, learning processes, interest, satisfaction with the class reported by the students showed that the plan might be adequate to both high and middle school students. The teachers carried the lessons reported the similar positive responses to the plan with some suggestions to increase teaching hours, prepare class appliances, and prepractice the teaching materials.

The study aimed to thoroughly observe the process of science-gifted students' career development from elementary to high school in Korea. Eighteen science high school students participated in this study. Data source was retrospective interviews with individuals. Results indicated that the inner factors influencing their career development included 'interest in science' and 'desire for deep understanding of science,' and 'ambition for taking a lead in society by means of science.' The outer factors included 'dissatisfaction with regular schooling,' 'social atmosphere to prefer special purpose high schools,' and 'in-depth educational programs beyond high school levels with brilliant peers.' These inner and outer factors have reacted upon each other in their career development. The implications for proper career development were discussed on the basis of the results.

This study aimed to proposed repeated reading aloud, which combines repetitive reading and reading aloud, as a method for teaching and learning mathematics. We investigated the effect of repeated reading aloud on students' academic achievement and cognitive load, and explored the implications of repeated reading aloud as a method for teaching and learning mathematics. To this end, we conducted a case study involving repeated reading aloud for two units: the limit of a function and the number of cases. The study targeted four 9th-grade students and four 10th-grade students, analyzing how their academic achievement and cognitive load changed. As a result, the eight students showed positive changes in academic achievement and cognitive load as the repeated reading aloud accumulated. When comparing the units, the academic achievement was lower for the limit of function than the number of cases. In terms of cognitive load, students exhibited higher cognitive load in the unit on the limit of function. When compared cognitive load by grade, there was no significant difference after 3rd repeated reading. However, in both units, the academic achievement of four 10th-grade students was higher than that of four 9th-grade students. Nonetheless, the gap narrowed as the reading aloud was repeated.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the teachers' recognition on the optimization of the educational contents of Clothing & Textiles in subjects of :he Practical Arts or the Technology & Home Economics in the course of elementary, middle and high schools. The statistical data for this research were collected from 203 questionnaires of teachers who work on elementary, middle and high schools. Mean. standard deviation, percentage were calculated using SPSS/WIN 12.0 program. Also. these materials were verified by t-test, One-way ANOVA and post verification Duncan. The results were as follows; First, The equipment ratio of practice laboratory were about 24% and very poor in elementary schools but those of middle and high school were 97% and 78% each and higher than elementary schools. Second, More than 50% of teachers recognized the amount of learning 'proper'. The elementary school teachers recognized the mount of learning in 'operating sewing machines' too heavy especially, the same as middle school teachers in 'making shorts': the same as high school teachers in 'making tablecloth and curtain' and 'making pillow cover or bag'. Third, All of the elementary, middle and high school teachers recognized the levels of total contents of clothing and textiles 'common'. The 80% of elementary school teachers recognized 'operating sewing machines' and 'making cushions' difficult especially. The same as middle school teachers in 'hand knitting handbag by crochet hoop needle', 'the various kinds of cloth' and 'making short pants'. The same as high school teachers in 'making tablecloth or curtain'. Fourth, Elementary school teachers recognized 'practicing basic hand needlework' and 'making pouch using hand needlework' important in the degree of educational contents importance. Middle school teachers recognized 'making short pants unimportant. High school teachers considered the contents focusing on practice such as 'making tablecloth and curtain' and 'making pillow cover or bags' unimportant. My suggestions were as follows; Both laboratories and facilities for practice should be established for making clothing and textiles lessons effective in Practical Arts in elementary schools. The 'operating sewing machines' which were considered difficult should be dealt in upper grade, re-conditioning to easier or omitted. The practical contents should be changed to student-activity-oriented and should be recomposed in order to familiar with students' living. It was needed to various and sufficient supports for increasing the teachers' practical abilities.

This study investigated high school students' perception of English extensive reading (ER) after introducing ER to general high school students in a metropolitan area. In addition, as the free semester system was expanded in high schools as well as middle schools, we developed a class model for English extensive reading. 91.4 percent of the students who participated in the study said that they wanted to try using the English extensive reading method. Also 35 high school students who experienced English extensive reading chose the 'Five Finger rule' and 'Graded Readers' Series' as the most helpful factors in their extensive reading experiences. In interviews with English teachers, teachers expressed their demand for the development of a model of English extensive reading suitable for free semesters in general high schools. This study proposes an English extensive reading class model utilizing library resources that can be used in the free semester system as well as a performance assessment-oriented English extensive reading class model.
