The purposes of this study were (a) to ascertain early childhood teachers' beliefs and practices relative to the developmentally appropriate practices, and (b) to determine the relative differences of child care center teachers' beliefs and practices and kindergarten teachers' beliefs and practices. Although interest in obtaining information regarding teachers' beliefs and practices for developmentally appropriate practices in early childhood education is not new, it has commanded considerable attention recently, reflecting concern about growing fragmentation and discontinuity between the early childhood education and care services. A questionnaire measure of 4-and 5-year-old classroom teachers' beliefs and practices based on the guidelines for developmentally appropriate practices of the National Association for the education of Young children, which was consisted of the Teachers' Beliefs Scale(TBS) and the Instructional activities Scale(IAS), was administered to 215 child care center teachers and 215 kindergarten teachers. Positive correlations were found not only between teachers' beliefs and practices but also between developmentally appropriate belief and activities, and between developmentally inappropriate beliefs and activities. There was significant difference between child center and kindergarten teacher groups on the mean scores of each subscale, revealing that kindergarten group had a greater mean score on both TBS and IAS than child care center group. The results of this study implies that there is a great deal of teaching in either child care centers or kindergartens which is not congruent with developmentally appropriate practice. Also, the information obtained with the questionnaire has supported the contention that early childhood education and care services are need to be amalgamated based on the developmentally appropriate practices.

일반교육에서와 마찬가지로 영재교육이 성공적으로 이루어지기 위하여서는 영재학생들을 담당하고 있는 교사의 역할이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 현재 각급 학교에서 영재교육을 담당하고 있는 대부분의 교사들은 단 기간의 영재교육연수를 받은 후 영재학생들을 가르치고 있다. 이런 단기간의 영재교육연수만으로도 그동안 일반 학생들을 담당하고 있던 교사가 영재교육에 대한 나름대로의 철학을 정립하고 영재학생들을 효과적으로 가르칠 수 있을지는 의문이다. 최근 교사의 신념이 교수활동에 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 시사하는 연구 결과가 많이 발표되고 있다. 이 논문은 현재 과학영재학교에서 과학과목을 가르치고 있는 교사들을 대상으로 사례연구를 수행하여, 영재교육에 대한 교사의 개인적 신념과 교수활동과의 관계를 파악하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이 연구에서 구체적 으로 다루고자 하는 문제는 다음과 같아. 첫째, 연구에 참여한 교사들의 영재교육에 대한 신념은 무엇인가? 둘째, 이들의 신념은 교수활동에 어떤 방식으로 반영 되고 있는가? 본 연구에 참여한 교사들은 과학영재학교 물리교사 2명, 생물교사2명, 기구과학교사1명으로 총 5명이다. 자료는 참여교사 당 4차시의 수업 관찰 및 녹화, 심층면담을 통해서 수집하였고, 모든수업과 면담자료를 전사 후에 분석하였다. 이외에 추가적인 자료는 이메일을 통해서 수집하였다. 참여교사들의 사례 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 참여 교사들의 영재교육에 대한 신념은 독립적으로 존재하는 것이 아니라 교수학습관과 교과목에 대한 신념이 서로 맞물려 하나의 신념체계를 형성하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 참여교사들의 신념체계는 '학생 중심', '교사 중심', '갈등 혼돈', 이 세 가지 형태로 나눌 수 있었다. '학생 중심' 신념체계를 가진 교사들은 수업진행 시 학생들의 질문이나 의견이 중요한 역할을 하게 하며, 학생들이 교사의 지적권위에 의지하지 않고 학생들 스스로 문제를 해결하도록 함으로써, 학생들이 수업에 주체가 되어 적극적으로 수업에 동참하게 하는 교실 참여구조를 보이고 있었다. '교사 중심' 신념체계를 가진 교사들은 주어진 시간 내에 많은 지식을 가르치는데 치중하고, 수업진행에서 학생보다 교사가 절대적인 역할을 수항하여 학생들이 주체적으로 수업을 이끌어나가기 보다는 교사의 지적권위에 학생들이 의존하는 수동적인 교실 참여구조를 보이고 있었다. '갈등 혼돈' 신념체계를 가진 교사는 자신만의 확고한 신념체계가 아직 형성되어 있지 않으며, 교수활동에서 전통주의 교수학습관이 많이 반영되고 있었다. 이 연구의 결과는 교사의 신념이 교수활동에 중요한 영향을 미친다는 사실을 다시 확인시켜준다. 특히, 영재학생 담당교사의 경우는 영재교육에 관한 신념뿐 아니라 교수학습관과 교과목에 대한 개인적 신념이 교수활동에 크게 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여준다. 이에 더하여 연구자는 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 영재교사교육에 대한 몇 가지 개선점을 제안하였다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relations between maternal traditional-modern values, childrearing practices and children's social behaviors. The subjects were 500 fifth grade elementary school children and their mothers, and teachers, and peers in the same classroom. The data were collected through questionnaires on maternal traditional values, perceived maternal childrearing practices, and children's social behaviors. Traditional maternal values focused on familial collectivism and politeness. The major results were as follows: (1) Maternal traditional values were positively related to childrearing practices in both maternal affection rational guidance and authoritarian control. (2) Maternal traditional values did not directly influence children's social behavior but showed an indirect moderating effect through maternal childrearing practices. Implications were discussed in terms of the importance of traditional values on childrearing behavior as well as the development of children.

The present study examines various pedagogical functions of conversational repair strategies employed by the teacher in the ESL classroom. As part of interactional resources, conversational repair is defined as the treatment of trouble occurring in interactive language use and is originally designed to deal with communication problems. Research on conversational repair has focused on ordinary conversation and organization of repair practices. Studies on more pedagogical functions of repair sequences initiated by the teacher are very few. The data were from five hours of ESL structure classes in an intensive English institute at a large U.S. university. They were closely transcribed and microanalyzed following the conversation-analytic methodology. The analysis found that ESL teachers' repair techniques not only resolve communication problems but they are also designed to serve several important instructional purposes of teaching the target language. They include creating opportunities of comprehensible input, inducing modified comprehensible output from students, guiding and controlling student output, and initiating corrections by initiating repair.

It is widely recommended that teachers should actively mediate students' engagement with tools such as manipulative materials. This paper is to help to parse classroom life so that both social and psychological aspects are accounted for and coordinated. Building on the theory of affordances from ecological psychology and the activity theory from sociocultural perspectives, the main strategy of this paper is to view manipulative materials as simultaneously participating in social and psychological activity systems. Within these activity systems it is charted how both mathematical affordances related to the structure of mathematical concepts and ecological affordances related to socially situated classroom practices need to be considered by teachers in effective mediation of mathematical manipulatives. This paper has three major sections. The first section develops a theoretical extension of Gibson's theory of affordances from natural to social environments. The second section introduces mathematical and ecological affordances using empirical data from a grade two elementary school classroom. The third section illustrates the need of coordinating the two affordances as embedded in different activity systems.

Competent mathematics teachers need to implement the responsive teaching strategy to use student thinking to make instructional decisions. However, the responsive teaching strategy is difficult to implement, and limited research has been conducted in traditional classroom settings. Therefore, we need a better understanding of responsive teaching practices to support mathematics teachers adopting and implementing them in their classrooms. Responsive teaching strategy is connected with teachers' noticing practice because mathematics teachers' ability to notice classroom events and student thinking is connected with their interaction with students. In this regard, this review introduced and examined a study of the relationship between mathematics teachers' noticing and responsive teaching: In the context of teaching for all students' mathematical thinking conducted by Kim et al. (2017).

The rich cultural backgrounds and practices of children from native cultures are often absent in classroom instruction, as teachers might feel that they have inadequate knowledge and backgrounds in the unique practices of these populations. Historically, children from native cultures have had challenging educational experiences and poor educational outcomes. To address these challenges, we propose a Family and Culture Based (FCB) framework that draws from family-centered practice, asset-based practice, and culturally responsive pedagogy. This article describes the three steps of the FCB framework, which uses a teacher-as-learner approach to instruct students from native cultures by engaging teachers in reflection, gaining knowledge about the cultural practices of the family and community, and integrating the new knowledge into practice. We use a Pacific Islands case (Native Hawaiian family) and a Pacific Northwest case (First Nations family) to illustrate the potential benefits of using the FCB framework with indigenous students.

본 연구는 제 2 언어 학습자들의 읽기-쓰기 통합에 대한 인식 정도를 대학 영작문반 학습문맥에서 탐구하였다. 동일한 연구 참여자들을 반복적으로 측정하는 패널설문(N=60)을 이용하여, 학습자들의 읽기-쓰기에 대한 통합인식이 일련의 교실수업 활동을 통하여 어떻게 재형성되는 지를 조사하였다. 대학생들의 통합인식 정도를 나타내는 인식점수는 5점-척도 설문을 이용하여 측정하였으며, 그룹간 시간별 평균차는 "반복측정-이요인 ANOVA"를 수행하여 평가하였다. 분석 결과, 트리트먼트 효과는 통계적으로 유의하지 못한 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 연구기간 동안 학생들의 통합인식에 대한 변화가 미미했음을 의미한다. 그러나 인식변화의 유형은 인식그룹에 따라 크게 다른 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 통합학습에 대한 인식이 쓰기 과정 중 발생하는 학생들의 학습행태를 이해하는 데 큰 도움을 줄뿐만 아니라, 읽기-쓰기 통합수업에서 보다 통합 지향적인 교수법을 개발하는데도 활용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

This paper aims to explore instructional design of a cyber classroom for secondary students' basic English language competence. A paucity of support for low or under achieving students' English learning exists particularly at the secondary level. In order to bridge the gap, there has been demand for online educational resources considered to be an effective tool in improving students' self-directed learning and motivation. This study employs a comprehensive approach to instructional design for the asynchronous cyber classroom with the underlying premise that different learning theories can be applied in a complementary manner to serve different pedagogical purposes best. Gagné's conditions of learning theory, Bruner's constructivist theory, Carroll's minimalist theory, and Vygotsky's social cognitive development theory serve as the basis for designing instruction and selecting appropriate media. The ADDIE model is used to develop online teaching and learning materials. Twenty-five key grammatical features were selected through the analysis of the national curriculum of English, being grouped into five units. Each feature is covered in one cyber asynchronous class. An Integration Class is given at the end of every five classes for synthesis, where students can practice grammatical features in a communicative context. Related theories, pedagogical practices, and practical web-design strategies for cyber Basic English classes are discussed with suggestions for research, practice and policy to support self-directed learning through a cyber class.

This paper presents cross-national perspectives on challenges in implementing current mathematics education reform ideals. This paper includes detailed qualitative descriptions of mathematics instruction from unevenly successful second-grade classrooms both in Koran and in the U. S with regared to reform recommendations. Despits dramatic differences in mathematics achivement between Korean and the U.S student. problems in both countries with regard to mathematics education are perceived to be very similar. The shared problems have a common origin in teacher-centered instruction. Educational leaders in both countries have persistently attempted to change the teacher-centered pedagogy to a student-centered approach. Many teachers report familiarity with and adherence to reform ideas, but their actual classroom teaching practices do not reflect the full implications of the reform ideals. Given the challenges in implementing reform, this study explored the breakdown that may occur between teachers adoption of reform objectives and their successful incorporation of reform ideals by comparing and contrasting two reform-oriented classrooms in both countries. This comparison and contrast provided a unique opportunity to reflect on possible subtle but crucial issues with regard to reform implementation. Thus, this study departed from past international comparisons in which the common objective has been to compare general social norma of typical mathematics classes across countries. This study was and exploratory, qualitative, comparative case study using grounded theory methodology based on constant comparative analysis for which the primary data sources were classroom video recordings and transcripts. The Korean portion of this study was conducted by the team of four researchers, including the author. The U.S portion of this study and a brief joint analysis were conducted by the author. This study compared and contrasted the classroom general social norms and sociomathematical norms of two Korean and two U.S second-grade teachers who aspired to implement reform. The two classrooms in each country were chosen because of their unequal success in activating the reform recommendation. Four mathematics lessons were videotaped from Korean classes, whereas fourteen lessons were videotaped from the U.S. classes. Intensive interviews were conducted with each teacher. The two classes within each country established similar participation patterns but very different sociomathematical norms. In both classes open-ended questioning, collaborative group work, and students own problem solving constituted the primary modes of classroom participation. However in one class mathematical significance was constituted as using standard algorithm with accuracy, whereas the other established a focus on providing reasonable and convincing arguments. Given these different mathematical foci, the students in the latter class had more opportunities to develop conceptual understanding than their counterparts. The similarities and differences to between the two teaching practices within each country clearly show that students learning opportunities do not arise social norms of a classroom community. Instead, they are closely related to its sociomathematical norms. Thus this study suggests that reform efforts highlight the importance of sociomathematical norms that established in the classroom microculture. This study also provides a more caution for the Korean reform movement than for its U.S. counterpart.
