The purpose of the study is to enhance the teaching competence for pre-service elementary teacher by using DGE in order to enhance SMK and PCK for them. To do this, we investigated the initial SMK and PCK for 23 pre-service elementary teachers, the reality of implementation activity of DGE and the change of SMK and PCK after quest activity by DGE. As results, 3 pre-service elementary teachers made errors which are misunderstanding a general angle as special angle, an excessive jump of logic and a circulation logic in the aspect of an initial SMK. In the aspect of contents of PCK, most of pre-service elementary teachers proposed teaching focused on the character using in the problem solving. And most of pre-service elementary teachers proposed teaching methods which are based on explanation, measurement and material manipulation. The reality of implementation activity of DGE was classified 4 cases which are a difficulty in understanding the concept of dynamics and embodying in DGE, an obsession about construction of $75^{\circ}$ and generalization, a difficulty in interpreting 'folding activity' mathematically and a good implementation activity. After quest activity by DGE, the case which is misunderstanding a general angle as special angle could be improved, but the others are not. And after quest activity by DGE, most of pre-service elementary teachers still proposed teaching focused on the character using in the problem solving in the aspect of contents of PCK, and some of pre-service elementary teachers added only teaching methods which are involving visual confirmation by GSP. From these results, we could extract some pedagogical implications helping pre-service teachers to reinforce SMK and PCK by DGE.

This study suggests a theoretical model of information literacy instructions in the context of the Extended Essay included in IB(International Baccalaureate) Diploma Program Core. The study particularly analyzed I-LEARN model as a model to teach and learn with information for inquiry-based learning since the model was developed for the purpose of learning with information. Some school districts in Korea adapted IB programs to address the need for better education. Findings indicate the followings. First, students can achieve deep understanding by applying a model of information literacy instructions that provides scaffolding. Second, the expected roles of school librarians in information literacy instructions for Extended Essay are process specialists, teachers, and instructional partners. Third, I-LEARN model is appropriate as a framework to teach information literacy skills for inquiry needed for Extended Essay. Fourth, I-LEARN assessment rubric is useful in assessing the process and outcomes of students' information seeking and use. Implications include that school librarians should develop themselves as experts in information literacy instructions for inquiry-based learning such as Extended Essay, and that Korean schools recognize the crucial role of school librarians in teaching information literacy skills for inquiry-based learinng.

Meaningful learning occurs through an active process of engaging with the content in a lively interaction between teacher and student. In this study, we explored teachers' learning, challenges, and changes as they learned and practiced responsive teaching (RT), a practice that supports students to put their ideas at the center of their lessons. As a result, we found that teachers initially embraced RT from different perspectives and struggled to implement it in ways they understood. We then explored RT more deeply by focusing on the case of a teacher who was teaching science herself, and found that her experience was both rewarding and confusing. However, by the end of the learning process, the teachers were able to define RT in their own ways, which strengthened their commitment to implementing RT in elementary science education. Based on this teacher learning process, it was suggested that teachers should be viewed as curriculum experts, that they should learn and explore collaboratively through a community of teachers, and that they should be researchers who continue to explore various practices in the field.

This study examined the changes of preservice biology teachers' NOS pedagogical content knowledge through two consecutive science methods courses: NOS understandings; attitudes toward teaching science; difficulties of NOS teaching; NOS teaching strategies; and views of orientation of NOS teaching. During the science methods course I, the preservice teachers engaged in discussions and reflections on what science is and how scientific knowledge has produced, drawing NOS aspects from episodes of history of science, and planning the lessons cooperating NOS instructional objectives. Then the next semester, through the science methods course II, the preservice teachers had a chance of the simulated teaching by adopting NOS teaching and learning activities in the context of the secondary biology context. The preservice teachers, further, reflected on their NOS teaching. The results showed that the preservice teachers constructed the NOS pedagogical content knowledge. They significantly improved their views of NOS and its teaching(p<.05) after the science methods course I, and retained their understanding after the science methods course II(p>.05). The preservice teachers mentioned the difficulties of teaching NOS in the secondary biology context, and further suggested effective NOS teaching methods in their reflective journals.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differences in the verbal interactions of earth science gifted depending on their communications structures and group status in small group activities. To this end, a small group activity was conducted to measure the density of the earth, and 8 small groups were selected, including 4 co-ownership type and 4 monopolistics type groups with different communication structures. And then, the framework was developed for analyzing verbal interactions to compare the differences in characteristics between small groups. The results are as follows. First, regardless of the communication structures, there were showing a simple pingpong-type communication structures for all small groups. Second, negative interactions such as 'restraint', 'command', 'complaint', and 'lack of confidence' predominantly appeared in all small groups. Third, the students in the status of out-lookers in small groups were mainly verbal interactions, such as instructing the other person, acting against the other person's actions, and expressing dissatisfaction with the attitudes and abilities of members. Therefore, teachers should guide students to use higher-level verbal interactions in their group activities in small group activities, and engage in students communication to prevent negative interactions from occurring. The teachers also need to check the level of achievement for students in the status of out-lookers in advance and guide them to participate more actively in small group activities. This study is meaningful in that it can be sued to design teaching and learning to improve students' problem solving and communication skills.

본 연구 개발은 초등학교 예비 교사에게 국어과 ICT 교수 학습에 대한 이해와 과정안 개발 및 수업에서의 활용 능력을 길러주고, 아울러 향후 ICT를 활용한 국어과 교육을 교육과정에 반영할 경우 제기될 수 있는 문제점을 짚어보고 개선 방안을 모색하는 데 그 목적을 두었다. 연구 개발의 내용은 국어과 ICT 활용 교육 관련 문헌 및 자료 탐색, 자료 및 수업 운영 실태 분석, 국어과 국어과 6학년 1, 2학기 180차시에 대한 학습 내용 및 목표 분석과 국어과 6학년 1, 2학기 180차시에 대한 ICT 교수 학습 과정안 개발, ICT 교수 학습과정안 개발 결과물의 수정 검토 및 서버 탑재, ICT 교수 학습 과정 개발 과정의 교육과정 적용 방안 모색이다. 본 연구 개발을 위하여 2003년 2학기 강좌인 '국어과 교재 연구(2학점)'와 통합하여 교수 학습 과정안 개발을 추진하였다. 본 강좌에서는 과정안 개발에 필요한 모형 안내, 과정안 작성 방법 지도, ICT 활용 수업의 분석, 과정안 개발에 필요한 컴퓨터 소양 교육이 이루어졌으며 과정안의 개발은 학기 과제로 추진하였다. 본 연구 개발 과제의 수행을 통하여 최종적으로 국어과 6학년 ICT 교수 학습 과정안 180차시와 연구 보고서 1종을 산출하였다. 본 연구 개발의 성과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 예비 교사에게 국어과 ICT 교수 학습 모형 및 과정안에 대한 이해를 높이고 교수 학습 과정안의 작성 능력을 길러주었다. 둘째, 연구 보고서에 제시된 국어과 ICT 자료 개발 및 활용 실태, 예비 교사의 ICT 교수 학습 과정안 개발을 위한 강의 계획과 개발을 위한 실제 지도 과정은 향후 관련 강의나 연구를 설계하고 교육과정을 마련하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있다. 셋째, 예비 교사들이 개발한 자료는 현장 교사들이 국어과 수업을 운용하는 데 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구 개발 결과 드러난 문제점과 보다 나은 연구와 강의를 지향하기 위한 개선 방안을 제시하여 보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 예비 교사의 특성과 개발 내용에 비추어 볼 때 ICT 교수 학습 과정안 개발 기간이 짧았다. 따라서 강의 시수를 늘리는 방안, 관련 강좌를 추가로 개설하는 방안, 기존 강좌를 통합하여 운영하는 방안을 고려해 보아야 한다. 둘째, 예비 교사의 수준을 고려할 때 여러 가지 '부가 자료'를 포함하는 ICT 교수 학습 과정안을 1인 1차시씩 개발하도록 하는 것은 학생들에게 상당한 부담을 안겨 주었다. 대안으로는 개발 관련 강자를 1년 단위로 계획하여 운용하는 방법, 학생 4-5명 당 1차시씩 개발하도록 하는 방법, ICT 교수 학습 과정안 자체만 개발하고 학습지, 교사연구자료, 자율학습 자료 등은 생략하는 방법 등이 있다. 셋째, 학생들의 컴퓨터 소양 기능이 부족한 상태에서 ICT 교수 학습 과정안 개발을 과제로 부과할 경우 좋은 결과물을 기대할 수 없다. 따라서 현재 교육대학의 교육 과정 편성 체제를 감안하면 컴퓨터 강좌와 교과 교육 강좌를 통합 강좌 형태로 운영하는 방법을 고려해 볼 만하다. 넷째, 교수 학습 모형의 경직성과 실제 교수 학습 변인을 고려한 활용이나 변형에 대한 탐구가 여전히 부족했다는 점이다. 앞으로는 이를 몇 가지의 모형 틀 속으로 자꾸 끓어 내려고 하는 것보다는 기존의 모형을 다양하게 변형할 수 있도록 그 틀을 열어줄 필요가 있다.
