This study aims to examine how technology integrated instruction change teachers' activities in schools since using technology in classrooms. A total of 311 elementary and secondary school teachers were participated in this study. Using exploratory factor analysis five factors were extracted. In addition, technology attitude in education and technology competence as psychological factors are analyzed to be influenced by the five extracted factors. The results of this study show that there are outstanding change since using technology in schools. Also changing of teachers' activities in schools is influenced by technology competence which reflects teachers' confidence on using technology rather than technology attitude in education which reflects teachers' recognition of the necessity of technology integrated instruction.

Robotics has been increasing its role among factors affecting teachers' technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge(TPACK) in education. This paper reviews these factors and analyses each to identify those most influential: teachers' individual (gender, teaching experiences), professional development(PD) for technology integration, psycho-philosophical characteristics (attitude toward technology integration, constructive belief), and school characteristics.Those having the most significant influence on teachers' TPACK of robotics were PD for technology integration from individual characteristics, attitudes toward technology integration, educational belief from psycho-philosophical characteristics, and schools' atmosphere and support from school characteristics.Thisreview confirmed that PD for technology integration and school atmosphere are the two most influential factors among all factors considered. Practical implications on precautions for effective integration of robotics in education were identified.

This study explores the impact of a flipped classroom, in terms of self-efficacy, for elementary pre-service teachers in US teacher education programs. This research project explores how ESL microteaching activity in the flipped classroom shapes teacher-candidates' self-efficacy regarding teaching culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students. By analyzing ESL microteaching videos, pre-service teachers' reflection papers, and individual interviews with the course instructors, the study results show how pre-service teachers enhance their self-efficacy in teaching CLD English language learners in mainstream content subject classrooms. Moreover, the researchers provide suggestions on how teacher educators can utilize the flipped classroom to create an authentic and meaningful learning experience, such as using ESL microteaching for pre-service teachers to shape their self-efficacy in order to be well-prepared for CLD English language learners. The implication is that Korean pre-service teachers should be prepared to teach CLD students in their mainstream classrooms.

This research aimed to explore the nature of teachers' experiences of multicultural education in primary schools with ethnic diversity in the Republic of Korea and draw policy implications. For this study, the researchers interviewed 15 primary school teachers using semi-structured questionnaires in mine different schools. The participating teachers were in charge of the multicultural education in schools with ethnic diversity in two rural counties in the Republic of Korea. The analysis of the empirical data suggests that teachers stationed in ethnic diversity have not been trained for the diverse population nor multicultural education in general. In addition, they were struggling with the lack of teaching resources including textbooks for multicultural education, support for students and their parents in need of learning Korean as a foreign language, accurate data of those students etc. These teacher policy implications are suggested while discussing the findings; such as the importance of practical in-service training opportunities, quality teaching resources, Korean as Second Language(KSL) experts, and accurate data of students with ethnic diversity.

The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of background variables, development stage, and perception of accountability on kindergarten teachers' adaptation to the teaching profession. The researchers surveyed 224 teachers in public and private kindergarten. The results of the study are as follows: First, in terms of age, the older they were, the better teachers adjusted to the teaching profession. As for their teaching career, the more teaching experience they had, the better teachers adapted to the teaching profession, but there were no significant differences between 6-10 years and more than 11 years. As to the level of education, four-year college graduates or graduate school graduates adjusted better than two-year college graduates. Second, teachers in the Capability Development Stage and Growth-Enthusiasm Stage showed a higher degree of adaptation than those in the Entrance-Acceptance Stage. Finally, the higher perception of accountability they have, the better teachers could adapt to the teaching profession. Among the categories of accountability, the professional accountability affected most highly the teachers' adaptation to the teaching profession.

The purpose of this study was to provide research results on how teacher background variables and teacher efficacy affect the teacher's instructional behavior of elementary school teachers in student participatory classes. A survey was conducted on 122 elementary school teachers in the G area and a regression analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship of influence between variables. As a result of the regression analysis, self-regulation efficiency and task difficulty preference had a significant impact on elementary teachers' instructional behavior. As for teaching knowledge, class motivation, which are sub-variable factors in class behavior, self-regulating efficacy had a higher influence than task difficulty preference and for class communication, task difficulty preference had a higher influence than self-regulating efficacy. Based on the results of the study, we considered ways to show desirable teaching behavior of elementary school teachers in student participatory classes.

쾌적하고 명료성이 높은 교실내의 음향환경은 학생들의 학업 성취도 및 교사의 언어전달 이해 향상을 이룩할 수 있는 중요한 사항이다. 이러한 우수한 교육환경을 위해서는 우선 우리나라의 교실 음향 실태 파악과 함께 교육시설의 음향상태 및 소음에 의한 학업 성취도, 심리적, 사회적 영향에 대한 정량적 조사가 이루어 져야 한다. 국내 교육시설의 음향 실태 파악을 통해 교육시설에서의 음향 및 소음 기준을 수립하여 교육시설내의 음환경 개선을 추진해야 한다. 교실 음향개선을 합리적으로 평가할 수 있는 지표로서 잔향시간과 배경소음이 가장 중요한 요소로 알려져 있다. 교실의 우수한 음환경을 위해 적절한 잔향시간은 $0.4\sim0.6$초, 배경소음은 NC-$25\sim30$수준이 확보되어야 하는 것으로 조사되었다. 또한 교사의 음성레벨과 배경소음과의 비(S/N비)는 최소 10 dB이상 되어야 강의 내용 전달이 가능하며, 각종 기계설비에서 발생되는 소음 및 진동은 저소음 기기 선정을 통해 최소화하여야 한다. 인접 실에서 발생되는 소음을 충분히 차단하기 위해서는 차음성능 우수한 구조의 벽계로 개선되어야 하며, 기밀성이 높은 출입문사용과 적절한 출입구 배치를 통해 인접한 교실로의 소음 전달을 최소화 할 수 있다.

Teachers' mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) strongly influence student achievement (Hill, Rowan, & Ball, 2005). However, there is generally no record that shows the levels of teachers' MKT in schools and districts. Because of the limited resources, schools and districts need some criteria to decide how to distribute their resources to help teachers improve MKT. This study explores what factors in teachers' backgrounds are related to their levels of MKT. This article examines the relationships between the MKT of 336 elementary teachers and their demographic, educational, and teaching backgrounds. To measure MKT, I used a series of multiple-choice problems. The number of years teaching mathematics is not critical to these measures. Implications are discussed with regard to policy for mathematics teacher education.
