  • The purpose of this study is to analyze and present keywords, trends, and language networks of keywords for each year of the pedagogical exam of the secondary teacher's employment exam for the 2019~2022 school year. The main research methods were text mining technique and language network analysis method, and analysis programs were KrKwic, Wordcloud Maker, Ucinet6, NetDraw, etc. The research results are as follows; First, keywords such as teacher, student, curriculum, class, and evaluation appeared in the top rankings, and keywords (online, wiki, discussion ceremony, information, etc.) that reflect the recent online class progress in the current COVID-19 situation also tended to appear. The keywords with high frequency of occurrence in the four-year integrated text were student(44), teacher(39), class(27), school(18), curriculum(16), online(10), and discussion method(8). Second, the overall language network of the keywords with high frequency of 4 years showed a significant level of density(0.566), total number of links(492), and average degree of links(16.4). The degree centrality was found in the order of teacher(199.0), class(197.0), student(185.0), and school(150.0). Betweenness centrality was found in the order of teacher(30.859), class(18.956), student(16.054), and school (15.745). It is expected that the results of this study will serve as data to be considered for preparatory teachers, institutions and related persons, and teachers and administrators of secondary school teacher training institutions.

  • At present, the secondary school teacher employment examination(SSTEE) is the only gateway to become a national and public secondary teacher in Korea, and after the revision from the 2014 academic year, all the questions of the exam have been converted to supply-type test items, requiring more definitive, accurate, and solid answers. Compared to the selection-type test items that measure recognition memory, the supply-type questions, testing recall memory, require constant memorization and retrieval practices to furnish answers; however, there is not enough learning tools available to support the practices. At this juncture, this study invented a mobile app, called ONE PASS, for the SSTEE. By unpacking the functional mechanisms of the brain, the basis of cognitive processing, this ONE PASS app offers a set of tools that feature brain-based learning principles, such as a personalized study planner, motivation measurement scales, mind mapping, brainstorming, and sample questions from previous tests. This study is expected to contribute to the research on the development of learning contents for applications, and at the same time, it hopes to be of some help for candidates in their exam preparation process.
