The participants were 312 special education teachers. The perception groups were identified as 'closed', 'laissez-faire', 'average', 'controlled', and 'autonomous.' The groups had different teacher burnout rates. The closed group had the highest rate, while the autonomous group had the lowest. This paper discusses the implications of these results for special education teacher burnout and school organizational climate, and suggests ideas for future studies.

This study is to identify different patterns of childhood's smart media literacy and to predict factors relating to smart media literacy behaviors. Also, the purpose of the present study is to examine parents' and teachers' mediation of childhood's smart media literacy. The data were collected from 400 elementary students in Korea and we presented two patterns of smart media literacy : perception literacy, critical literacy. The results showed positive relationships between perception literacy and parental active and passive mediation. And a teacher's active and passive mediation was positively associated with children's perception literacy. In addition, the results of this study showed that parental active and passive mediation also affected the critical literacy. It was found that there were significant differences in sociological characteristics like in gender, school year, spending time, a double income family on smart media literacy. This suggests that a parent's active and passive mediation may lead to activate children's smart media use.

For this study, the survey data collected by 64 students who were enrolled in the kindergarten preservice teacher education were analysed by using multiple regression analysis. The results of this study showed as follows. First, technology easy to use significantly affected perceived usefulness. Second, technology easy to use negatively affected technostress. Third, perceived usefulness significantly affected technology intention to use while technostress negatively affected it. From this results, it is revealed that various technology training opportunities would be provided for improving preservice teachers' technology intention to use and lessing preservice teachers' technostress. Furthermore, effective teaching-learning strategies for utilizing technology as an educational media should be developed in the early childhood educational environment.
