대부분의 중등학교 교사양성대학교 수학교육과 학생들은 복소해석학을 3학년이 되었을 때 꼭 수강해야 한다. 그런데 교과내용은 자연대학 수학과에서 가르치는 내용과 다른 점이 별로 없다. 교과내용이 너무 어렵고 많을 뿐만 아니라 중등학교에서 수학교사로 일하는데에 별로 필요하지 않은 많은 내용을 담고 있다. 이런 교과과정은 중등학교 수학교사 양성을 목표로 하는 교사양성대학에는 매우 불합리한 것이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지금까지 오랜 세월 동안 이런 교과과정이 변하지 않고 지속되어 왔다는 것이 놀라올 뿐이다 이제는 오래되고 비현실적이며 비효율적이기따지 한 옛툴에서 벗어나려는 시도를 너무 늦기전에 해야만 한다. 이런 취지에서 복소해석학의 교과내용을 새롭게 구성하려 하고 있으며 2003년 1월24일부터 25일까지 이틀 동안 한국교원대하교에서 열리는 전국수학교육연구대회에서 이런 연구내용과 건의사항 등을 발표하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate beginner and experienced Korean science teachers' perceptions about the science teacher preparation courses from which they graduated, and to compare them. The study was conducted as a qualitative study using in-depth interviews. For the study, interview questions were developed by the authors based on the questionnaire of 'The IMPPACT project' that was being conducted in America. The interview tool includes questions about their experience of science subject matter content knowledge, science pedagogical content knowledge, and general pedagogical content knowledge in their preparation courses. For the interview, seven beginning science teachers, less than five years of teaching experience, and five experienced science teachers, more than five years of teaching experience, were sampled from secondary schools in Korea. The research results are as follows: First, most of the beginner and experienced science teachers perceived that the teaching methods in the classes of science subject matter were not good model for teaching science in their secondary school, because they were not diverse enough and entailed mostly knowledge transfer just through lecture without teacher-student interaction. Second, most of the beginner science teachers perceived that they were affected positively by the teaching strategies and evaluation methods in the classes for science pedagogical subject matter and they could apply those strategies and methods in their current science teaching. Lastly, most of the beginner and experienced science teachers perceived that general pedagogical subject matter is important and prerequisite for science teaching in their schools, but the courses that they experienced at their university were not appropriate for their current teaching.

In this study, we investigated the current status of the teacher education curriculum and the recruitment of general science teachers, and the ways to improve them as suggested by Professors from the Department of Science Education. Most science education departments have not required double majors in general science, and there are wide differences in the number of students who take the general science programs. There is not any department that requires science courses other than its own science major courses when students get only their own in-depth science major certificate. A few departments provide integrated science courses such as history of science, scientific creativity, integrated science, and so forth. Most professors revealed negative perceptions toward 'a compulsory requirement of double majors in general science' with other in-depth science majors such as physics, chemistry, biology, and earth sciences. The majority of professors also suggested providing elective courses in integrated science-related subjects. Regarding general science majored teacher employment, most professors did not agree with separate employment for the general science teacher, although they agreed with the necessity of the general science teaching certificate. They also suggested that preservice teachers need to take science courses other than their own specialized science majors for the in-depth science teaching certificate. Based on the results, we suggested ways to improve the teacher education curriculum and the recruitment of general science teachers.

This paper aims to compare the two groups of TFA in U.S. and Dream Touch For All in Korea established with the same goals: 1) goal and core value, 2) qualification and training of teachers, and 3) educational performance. As a result of the analysis, the two groups showed that they focused on the role of teachers to improve the academic achievement of the underprivileged under the goal of solving the inequality of education. However, while TFA in the United States was able to function within public education, Korea's Dream Touch For All played a complementary role in public education. In the case of the United States, it appears to be a 'quasi-open' teacher training system that allows teachers from alternative teacher groups such as TFA to be accepted, while in Korea it shows the character of 'closed teacher training system' to be. For this reason, the two groups showed differences in core value, teacher training, and operating program, and as a result, they also set different educational models.

This study examines the characteristics of teacher education system and professional standards of teachers in Canada through analysis of the current teacher education curriculum and salary grids of teachers in Canada. As a result, the following characteristics were found. First, contents and theories acquired during the course of teacher education are connected to the actual practice to increase the site-compatibility. Second, professional standards of teachers is rather holistic, than detailed and systematic. Based on the findings, the following implication can be drawn. To enhance the site compatibility of teachers in the Republic of Korea, it is requisite to build a persistent, and cooperative relationship among the faculty members of teacher education program, the members of the community, and supervisor teachers of practicum schools. Also, it is necessary to come up with a system that directly connects the professionalism of the teachers and the salary grids, as the salary of teachers are adjusted according to the completion of degree or courses, reflecting the professionalism.

Teacher's competence in student assessment is an essential ability to mathematics teachers and should be improved qualitatively. This study suggests how college of education should make efforts in educating prospective teachers who will have competence in student assessment. First, $\ulcorner$Assessment of Mathematics Learning$\lrcorner$ must be set as a required subject. Second, the contents of the subject should be consisted to improve the competence of the prospective teachers in student assessment. Therefore, the contents based on the standards of teacher's competence in student assessment are suggested in this paper. Third, teaching methods should be practiced by using exemplary samples of teacher's assessment on students in addition to lecture.

The claim that the quality assurance measures towards teacher education institutions tend to be deviated from its original purposes has been raised among international scholars, especially in those countries where prospective teachers are oversupplied. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of evaluation systems of teacher's colleges in South Korea and China from a comparative perspective. Based on six areas such as evaluation authority, purposes, cycle, criteria, methods, result utilization, we describe current practices to draw similarities and differences of the two systems. The analyses revealed remarkable similarities despite the slight differences. First, the evaluation was deviated from the quality assurance and support of the teacher's colleges. Second, the evaluation focused on supervision of the institutions and control of quantitative aspects of teacher's colleges instead of quality assurance. Based on the findings, we suggested some policy recommendations to recover the original purposes and functions of teacher education institutional evaluations in South Korea and China.

본 연구는 교사양성 대학에 적합한 현대대수학 강좌운영의 실례를 소개하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 군, 환, 벡터공간 내용을 적절히 재구성한다. 갈로아 정리는 고차방정식 근의 가해성과 밀접한 관련이 있으므로 중 ${\cdot}$ 고등학교육과정과도 관련지을 수 있다. 그러나 근론과 환룐, 벡터공간의 이론적 배경을 바탕으로 체론의 갈로아 정리로 나아가는 과정에서 많은 학생들이 어려움을 토로하는 것이 현실이다. 이처럼 그 내용의 중요성에 비해 실질적인 접근의 어려움으로 인하여 체론을 아예 배우지 않거나 배우더라도 그 본질을 이해하지 못하는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, 교사양성 대학의 학생들의 갈로아 정리의 핵심과 본질을 보다 쉽게 이해할 수 있도록 함에 초점을 두고자 한다.
