This study examines the content of vectors and matrices in Artificial Intelligence Mathematics textbooks (AIMTs) from the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum. We analyzed the implementation of foundational mathematical concepts, specifically definitions and related sub-concepts of vectors and matrices, in these textbooks, given their importance for understanding AI. The findings reveal significant variations in the presentation of vector-related concepts, definitions, sub-concepts, and levels of contextual information and descriptions such as vector size, distance between vectors, and mathematical interpretation. While there are few discrepancies in the presentation of fundamental matrix concepts, differences emerge in the subtypes of matrices used and the matrix operations applied in image data processing across textbooks. There is also variation in how textbooks emphasize the interconnectedness of mathematics for explaining vector-related concepts versus the textbooks place more emphasis on AI-related knowledge than on mathematical concepts and principles. The implications for future curriculum development and textbook design are discussed, providing insights into improving AI mathematics education.

This article is based on an international collaborative study that aimed to investigate mathematical preparation of prospective elementary teachers in several selected education systems in East Asia. This article reports the Korean portion of the study. A survey instrument was developed to explore not only prospective teachers' knowledge of elementary mathematics curriculum and their beliefs in their preparation and mathematics instruction but also their subject matter knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge on the topic of fraction division. A total of 291 seniors in 3 universities participated in the survey. The results reveal these prospective teachers' strengths and weaknesses with regard to their knowledge of fraction division, and suggest that content-specific pedagogical knowledge needs to be emphasized in the teacher preparation program.

학습 효과는 교사의 질을 능가할 수 없으므로 교사가 학습자를 어떻게 가르칠 것인가에 전략이나 방법은 학습자의 학습에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변인이 된다. 이러한 점에서 볼 때 교사는 교육학적 지식, 교과 내용학적 지식을 수업에 적절히 통합하는 능력을 갖추어야 한다. 특히 현대 사회는 테크놀로지가 발전하면서 수업에 테크놀로지를 활용하여 학습의 효과를 높이고자 하는 다양한 시도들이 이루어지고 있다. 테크놀로지라는 영역에 포함되는 것들을 살펴보면 주로 도구나 응용소프트웨어를 사용하는 것에 한정되어 있는 경우가 많다. 그러나 도구나 응용소프트웨어는 이들이 제공할 수 있는 기능 내에서만 활용 가능하다는 점에서 제약점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 TPACK의 테크놀로지 지식을 프로그래밍으로까지 그 범위를 확장하는 가능성에 대하여 논의하였다.

This research investigates how pre-service music teachers demonstrated pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) and self-efficacy during a 16-week Music Education Course. 37 pre-service music teachers underwent peer mentoring, and prepared teaching guides and class teaching demonstrations. At the end of the course, the 37 participants' teacher self-efficacy and PCK components (namely pedagogical knowledge, representational knowledge, subject matter knowledge, assessment knowledge, student characteristics knowledge, curriculum knowledge, and context and social knowledge) were assessed. Data on their self-efficacy and PCK were gathered through a group interview and their self-reflection journals, and analyzed as phenomenological experience research. Analyses of the data show that pre-service music teachers acquired diverse knowledge. It also showed that peer mentoring enhanced the pre-service music teachers' self-efficacy, enabling them to prepare teaching guides and confidently demonstrate classes. Thus, diverse opportunities in research and practical class demonstrations contributed to pre-service music teachers' PCK and self-efficacy.

본 연구는 변화하는 시대에 맞는 교육과정 개편에서 초등학교 컴퓨터 교육이 교과로서 이루어져야 할 것인가에 대한 초등학교 교사들의 의견을 조사하기 위한 것이다. 설문을 통해 조사해 본 결과 초등학교 교사들은 학생들이 미래사회에 잘 적응하기 위한 능력을 기르는데 초등학교에서 컴퓨터 교육이 매우 중요하다고 생각하고 있었으며, 이에 따라 컴퓨터 교과를 독립적으로 또는 재량활동의 형태로서 학생들에게 가르쳐야 한다고 보았다. 그러나 컴퓨터 교과가 독립교과로서 자리를 잡기 위해서는 너무 많은 과목으로 구성되어 있는 현재의 교육과정이 축소되어야 하며, 컴퓨터 교과서를 국가적으로 개발하고 보급하여 현장에 투입되는 노력을 보여야 한다고 생각하고 있었다. 또한 컴퓨터 교과는 그 내용의 특수성 때문에 담임교사들이 지도하기를 꺼려하였고, 컴퓨터 전담 교사가 필요하다는 의견이 지배적이었다.

The purpose of this study was to conceptualize the idea of engineering between science and technology, to classify the types of K-9 engineering education, and to develop content standards for it. The primary goal for an engineer is to design, create, and produce new tools, machines, and systems for practical means of human by exploiting technology and science. Engineering is the professional art of using technology, and the practical application of science and mathematics to achieve the optimum conversion of the resources of nature for the benefit of humankind. We reviewed the literatures and documents for background research, had surveys, and interviewed with engineers and educators to set the frame of the content standards for K-9 Engineering education and to construct standards for each sub-component. We developed and suggested the content standards for K-9 engineering education by examining and revising it.

In this article we study on a mathematics(geometry) textbook which is written for the purpose of considering student's individual difference by famous russian author V. A. Gusev. We analyze text and exercise of the experimental textbook, form and extract some didactical ideas that help us to design individualized mathematics classroom activities with students.

The study's purpose is to present model for constructing of media education's curriculum. The concept and goal of media education have changed by various media education's paradigm historically. Also this changed the content and the goal of the media education. Curriculum model of media education is various by the nation. AS so the study analyzed the media education's curriculum model to be applying in USA, United British, German, Australia, Canada. Through this, the model for constructing of media education' curriculum is presented. The curriculum model helps to be executed systematically media education in Korea. According to the result, The model is composed of the goal and content. The goal of media education is composed of media knowledge, media appreciation, media analyze, media production. The content of media education is composed of Media, Text, User.

The purpose of this study is to support elementary teachers to use the teaching of weights and measures. To help the author of the next elementary mathematics textbook to be used as a reference for the quantitative narrative process. For this purpose, I focused on the contents of textbooks in terms of definition, a unit of measure, and calculation. As a result, first, as for the definition of weights and measures, it is taken as an example rather than as an explicit statement. Second, several problems were found in the metrology content and metric unit introduction order. Third, the computation between measurement units stood in simple computation rather than procedural knowledge. Fourth, it was concluded that the reason and groundbreaking of the grade-specific differences and the amount of a student's education are necessary.

In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) components and their integrations in the processes of developing performance assessment tasks of pre-service chemistry teachers who participated in the constructive performance assessment workshop. Eight pre-service teachers participated in this study. After three weeks of the constructivist performance assessment workshop, they developed their own performance assessment tasks. The think-aloud method was used to investigate their developing processes. Their activities were recorded and videotaped, and semi-structured interviews were also conducted. The analysis of the results revealed that the PCK component considered in the planning step showed similar frequencies for assessment, instructional strategies, students, and subject matter components. In the embodying step, assessment component was most frequent. In the discussion step, the frequencies for assessment, instructional strategies, and students components were similar. However, curriculum component and the subcomponent of science process skill were rarely used. The integrations among the PCK components were found to be centered on the instructional strategies component in the planning step and the students component in the embodying and discussion step. However, curriculum and subject matter components were rarely integrated with other PCK components. On the basis of the results, educational implications are discussed.
