최근 수학교육에서 가치(values)에 대한 재조명과 함께 교사와 학생의 수학 교수·학습에 대한 가치 연구가 부각되는 반면에, 국내에서는 이에 대한 연구가 많지 않다. 본 논문은 초등수학교육에 전문성을 가진 한 수석교사가 5학년 학생들을 대상으로 수학 수업을 실행하였을 때 학생들이 수석교사의 가치를 어떻게 인식하는지, 수업 전후에 수학 학습 가치의 변화가 있는지를 분석한 것이다. 연구 결과 학생들은 수석교사가 수학 수업에서 이해, 예습·복습, 그림, 문제, 이유 등을 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 인식하였고, 특히 이해를 수석교사의 핵심가치로 인식하고 있었다. 학생들의 일반적 수학 학습 가치 및 개인적 수학 학습 가치를 분석하였을 때, 수업 전후에 동일하게 예습·복습을 가장 중요하게 인식하고 있었으나, 변화의 측면에서 보면 이해의 가치에서 가장 큰 변화를 보였다. 학생들은 자신이 인식한 수석교사의 가치를 있는 그대로 수용하기 보다는 능동적으로 가치를 재구성하는 양상을 보였다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 토대로 본 논문은 수학 학습에서 학생들의 가치를 고려하는 것과 관련한 시사점을 제공한다.

The mathematics education community is seeking to change a teacher-centered class-room culture to a student-centered culture. However, the real transition is not easy, even for teachers who are eager and willing to teach differently. The challenge for teachers is to use the social structure of the classrooms to nurture students' development toward mathematical ways of thinking and communicating as well as their under-standing of mathematical concepts and processes. By introducing an elementary teacher's teaching practice and professional develop-ment along with her classroom episodes, this paper is to make strides toward an enriched understanding of the culture of the elementary mathematics classrooms in which students may have a lot of opportunities to develop conceptual under standing and math-ematical disposition. This paper first provides a detailed description of the classroom flow in terms of general social norms and sociomathematical norms in order to explore how the teacher and the students have established such a student-centered math-ematics microculture. This paper then analyzes the teacher's teaching approach and professional development.

Teachers' beliefs about teaching English are reflected in their practices in the classroom. They influence on the students' attitude to English learning. Any teacher training program expects the trainees to change or modify their existing beliefs and attitude through the new ideas and information introduced by the program toward a desired direction. The present study describes a teacher training program for elementary school English teachers and compares the beliefs of the teachers about teaching English before and after the training. The subjects are the elementary school English teachers around Chungnam area who get a special training of 120 hours during January 1997. The investigation of the subjects' beliefs on English teaching is conducted through examining two journals of each subject before and after the training. The journals show the teachers' inner flow of thought, so teacher trainers are expected to get insight on their general instructional considerations and have implications on the future teacher training program through examining these journals. In addition, the journal writing itself gives the teachers opportunity to reflect their practice and rethink about their beliefs, and develop themselves as professional English teachers.

The article aims to present findings of a study which has examined the ability of elementary school mathematics teachers and of teacher-trainees in other disciplines to solve irregular challenging problems of sequences in general rather than numerical sequences only. The findings show that mathematics teachers succeed to cope with unusual assignments when the requirements of the problems presented to them are analogous to irregular problems. However, when the problems require a change in the thinking procedure in the direction of creative thinking, there is a considerable decrease in performance. Another finding shows that, although teacher-trainees succeed less in solving the presented problems, they give incorrect solutions which do indicate creative thinking. An inevitable conclusion based on the research findings is that teacher training institutions should enhance and reinforce multi-directional. branching out and creative thinking competences.

본 논문은 수학 교사들의 TPCK (Technology Pedagogical Content Knowledge) 개발을 위해 만들어진 수학교사 전문성 개발 프로그램을 통해 한 교사의 TPCK의 변화를 알아봄으로써 테크놀로지를 이용한 수학교육과 수학교사 교육의 개선점을 제공한다. TPCK는 수학 내용 지식, 테크놀로지 지식, 그리고 수학 교수 학습에 대한 지식의 교차부분을 말하며 이 전문성 개발 프로그램은 특히 수학 교사들의 수학 교육에 있어서 스프레드쉬트의 이용을 기초로 하고 있다. 이 프로그램은 여름방학 과정과 실제 수업실습의 두 과정으로 구성되었다. 10명의 교사들이 여름 방학 프로그램에 참여했으며 그중 변화가 가장 큰1명의 TPCK를 조사하여 변화에 가장 큰 영향을 미친 것이 무엇인지 알아보았다. 교사 전문성 개발 프로그램에서 실제 수업이 뒤따르는 요구가 변화에 가장 큰 영향을 주었다.

Objective: In order to promote the rights of childcare teachers, there is a need to identify problems and demands about the rights of childcare teachers. Therefore, this study sought to examine the perception of childcare teachers' rights in order to identify the concepts of teacher rights. Methods: This study used the concept mapping method to identify the concepts of childcare teachers' teacher rights and interpreted these concepts utilizing the multi-dimension analysis method. Results: As a result of interviews from eight childcare teachers, 37 statements were derived. The result of similarities evaluated by 28 childcare teachers showed that 37 statements about teachers' rights consisted of two dimensions and four clusters (direct-indirect and indoor-outdoor of day-care center). Conclusion/Implications: This study suggested that direct and indirect efforts are needed to enhance the rights of childcare teachers and that change is necessary not only within daycare centers such as the principal but that change is also necessary outside daycare centers such as at government agencies in relation to daycare teachers's rights.

Taking the issues of inequity and power between NES and NNES teachers as a starting point, this qualitative study explores the way the widespread belief of the native speaker fallacy manifests itself in one NNES teacher's teaching life and is linked to the teacher's understanding of herself as an English teacher. Guided by critical applied linguistics (Pennycook, 2001) and using Bourdieu's (1991) theorization of symbolic violence, I conducted an instrumental case study (Stake, 1995) in an ESL writing class at a US university. I collected data through classroom observations and interviews over a nine-month period and analyzed the data using the constant comparison method (Glaser and Strauss, 1967). The findings illustrate the ways the dominant ideology of the native speaker fallacy works to maintain and reproduce the status quo unequal relation between NES and NNES teachers by making all parties involved believe in the artificial sociocultural arrangements that favor NES teachers as legitimate. The findings direct our attention to the importance of critical teacher education that will enable future TESOL professionals to engage in critical reflection on diverse issues and envision transformative change. The findings, in particular, point to the need for language support for NNES teachers in TESOL teacher education.

This study is designed to positively transform a teacher's emotional state whilst teaching their classes and be able to create happier lessons for preschool children. To do this, a teacher needs to reflect upon current problems and take steps to deal with them. The data for this study was collected from participatory observation and in-depth interviews, making use of photos, a reflective teacher's journal and interview records from Mar. 28, 2011 through Oct. 7, 2011. The problems identified were, (1) teacher centered classes, (2) a daily routine filled with large group activities, (3) disruptive students, and (4) repetitiveness. The routes to greater classroom "happiness" are (1) rearranging seats, (2) "story sharing activities" in small groups, (3) making a separate "story sharing activity" area, (4) using small groups instead of large groups, (5) changing the daily routine. The role of the teacher in finding greater "happiness" are (1) meaningful, 'real observation', (2) discovering genuine change from small points, (3) power sharing, and (4) growing and developing with children.
