As the 2015 Revised Secondary Information Curriculum was reorganized into a software-focused curriculum, a number of information teachers were needed. For this purpose, a special training course for multiple majors for secondary information teachers was established, and produced about 100 teachers with multiple majors. To improve this training program, this study surveyed the trainees joined in this program. As the result of the survey, there were findings that the short training period made it difficult to understand the overall content of the curriculum, and that they had a loss of learning due to the burden on another major. Therefore, long-term training is necessary to train informatics teachers, and by realizing the reinforcement of specialty through pre-training and main training, and by organizing a gradual curriculum, substantiality should be sought.

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 study aims to make a research on the secondary school education of geography and the system of teacher training in Belgium, focused on the case of Francophone Community. What has been made clear by this research can be summed up as follows. The first two years of the secondary school offer two hours of 'environment education', per week, which can be categorized into the learning of living geography, in that at this stage students learn how to observe the geographic phenomena in their daily life and pigeonhole them. The two years of the second stage of the secondary school offer one hour of 'world geography' which actually is focused on the district of Europe and Russia. The two years of the third stage of the secondary school offer an advanced course of geography which aims to teach systematically the physical geography and the human geography. A remarkable change in geographic education in Belgium is that in the wake of the Revision Act of the secondary school education, textbooks were replaced by other teaching manuals adapted to the regional condition by the teachers. This may result in a wide gap of achievements in geography according to the conditions of educational establishments. Another notable change is that the stress of geographic education tends to be placed on the ability of acquiring practical geographic knowledge rather than the geographic information itself. And it is also another marked tendency that most learning activities in geography class are conducted on the basis of student-centered and the method of investigation. Teachers of the lower secondary schools in Belgium are trained in the School of Education as multi-major teachers, such as a teacher for biology-chemistry-geography or a teacher for history-sociology-geography. Teachers of the higher secondary school education are trained in the Department of Teacher Education in universities as solo-major teachers in that they are required to know more deeply to teach an advanced course of geography in the higher secondary schools. To improve the teacher education many folds of policies are adopted. One is that many in-service teachers are officially put into services of guiding and teaching teacher training. Another is that faculty members in charge of teacher training course are trying to level up the qualifications of teachers by rigorous disciplining.

In this study, we analyze the phenomena of professional development under the four categories: motivation toward entering college of education, pedagogical content knowledge, study of subject matter and future vision. We conducted a survey method for almost 60 computer education majors at S university ranging from freshman up to junior levels and interviewed 5 selected participants. According to SPSS analysis, there was no significant level difference in any category while male students responded more positively than female students in all the categories. To explore the survey results deeply, we selected 3 students from sophomore and junior levels and 2 extra senior students to conduct interviews. The interpretation of the data indicated how their academic problems revealed due to heavy curricular loads seeking second major and difficulties of pursuing pedagogical contents knowledge.

국가의 국가경쟁력은 학창시절 학생의 학력만큼 중요하다. 성인의 경우, 학력을 위한 노하우는 체험을 통해 터득할 수 있었다. 그러나 국가경쟁력에 관해서는 우물 안 내부관점을 벗어나기 힘들어 추진 방향과 제도 운영에 자칫 시행착오를 범하기 쉽다. 이는 사안에 대해 본질적인 접근보다 껍데기만을 쫓기 때문이었다. 이 현상을 분석하려면 관점과 보이지 않는 영역의 것들을 다룰 수 있는 수학적 사고법이 필요하며, 이 능력은 현 지식정보화 사회에서 매우 긴요하다. 그러나 현실은 여러 가지 이유로 수학적 사고법을 비롯한 기초학문을 위기로 몰아가고 있고, 안타깝지만 그 중심에 수학교육이 자리잡고 있다. 수학교육의 위기를 유발하는 요인으로 제도 운영에 관한 건이 있다. 제도 운영에서 한 변수의 변화, 예로 대입의 계열교차지원 허용 건, 교원임용고시에서 교과교육학 영역의 출제 건과 복수전공, 부전공 자격소지자에 대한 가산점 부여 건은 수학교육과 교육과정에 직, 간접적으로 영향을 미친다. 이 관계를 사범대학 수학교육과 현장의 사례를 통하여 조명하고, 그 문제점을 지적하고자 한다. 현 사범교육은 졸업이수학점 140학점 체제하에서 제 7차 교육과정에 따른 복수전공, 부전공 우대 정책을 펴고 있다. 수학교육과의 경우, 부전공 열풍이 불어 전공선택 과목이 3학년 1학기부터 폐강될 위기에 처해 있다. 교양교육의 고사 또는 전광교육이 예전보다 반으로 줄어들게 된 사범대학 실상에 비애감을 느끼게 된다. 이는 전문화된 교사 양성, 나아가 미래 국가경쟁력 향상에 심각한 저해 요소로 작용할 것이다. 복잡다단한 세상에서 최적화를 향한 개선 노력이 멈춰서는 안 된다. 현행 교원임용고시 운영상의 문제점을 공론화하고, 수학교육인의 중지를 모아야 할 긴박한 시점이다. 이를 계기로 교원임용고시의 운영개선과 수학교육과 교육과정을 한층 더 견실하게 하는 데에 이바지하고자 한다. 것이라면 후속연구로 이러한 가능성을 실험연구로 검증하고자 한다.toceros resting spores/Chaetoceroe vegetative cells도 80 cm 보다 상층에서는 높게 나타나 규조온도지수 분포와도 일치하는 경향을 보인다. 이상의 규조군집 분석 결과에 의하면, 홀로세의 후빙기동안 본 연구 지역인 동해 북동부에는 대마 난류의 유입이후 현재와 유사한 환경이 우세하게 발달했으나, 난류종 P. doliolus의 변화는 동해내에서 대마난류의 세기가 반복되었음을 지시하고 있다./3 수준으로 높다. 결론적으로 풍부한 화학물질들을 함유한 제주해류는 남해 및 동해의 생지화학적 과정들에 있어 상당히 중요함을 시사한다.다. 수조 상층수 중 Cu, Cd, As 농도는 모든 FW, SW수조에서 시간이 지남에 따라 일관성 있게 감소하였고, 제거속도는 Cu가 다른 원소에 비해 빨랐다. 제거속도는 FW 3개 수조 중 FW5&6에서 세 원소 모두 가장 느렸고, SW 3개 수조 중에서는 SW1&2에서 가장 빨랐다.

The purpose of the study is to explore the experiences and meaning of the AP (Advanced Placement) at the specialized school for the highly gifted through the in-depth interview with 39 college students who had graduated from the specialized schools with the AP experiences. It is expected that the AP will be expanded to the students at the Science High Schools from the year of 2015, however, there has been no study to examine the realities of the AP in-depth especially through the voices of the AP participants. Students have taken 8 required and/or selective courses as AP in average. Students usually start to take AP from the second year of the specialized school for the highly gifted, but some start from the first year through the placement test. Numbers of available AP courses vary by subjects, but relatively more courses open in the areas of math and physics. Students' opinions regarding the AP were quite positive. Specifically, the high quality of the AP class and energetic interaction between student and teacher compared to the college classes were preferred by the students. However, it was controversial whether C+ is enough for the pass condition of the AP. Students were using the shortened time by AP in diverse ways, such as early graduation, double majors, exchange students, individual researches, and so on. Most of all, they tried to search for their career interests through the AP experiences. In closing, the present study provides some advices and future directions for the better AP management, including the improvement of administrative system between schools for the gifted and the universities, and the expansion of the number of university which approves the AP system.
