  • 학교도서관은 학생들에게 미래의 불확실성에 대응할 수 있는 능력을 기를 수 있는 장소로, 다양한 정보를 활용하여 기본 역량과 변화 대응력을 키울 수 있는 곳이다. 학교도서관의 활용은 교사의 지도가 필수적이므로 교사의 인식은 매우 중요하다. 그러나 대부분의 연구는 교사의 인식을 외부환경으로 간주하여 그 중요성을 계량적인 척도로 측정하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있다. 본 연구에서는 초등학교 교사들의 학교도서관 인식을 구체적으로 알아보고자, 사람 중심적인 접근 방법인 잠재프로파일 분석기법(Latent Profile Analysis, 이하 LPA)을 사용하여 기존 연구에서 검토하기 어려웠던 교사의 학교도서관의 역할과 중요성에 대한 복합적인 인식과 그 인식의 대표적인 유형을 확인하였다. 이를 토대로 교사의 인식유형에 따라 학교도서관의 운영과 활성화 방안을 맞춤형으로 제안하였다.

  • 본 연구는 과학교과서에 대한 중학교 교사와 학생들의 인식을 알아보기 위해 시도되었다. 먼저, 교사 및 학생의 인구학적 변인에 따른 교과서 인식의 차이를 알아보고, 교사 학생의 교수 학습관에 따른 교과서관의 관계를 알아보고, 마지막으로 교사와 학생간의 교과서 인식의 차이를 알아보았다. 연구목적에 따른 연구문제와 연구가설을 설정하고, 설정된 가설을 검증하기 위한 설문지를 개발하였으며, 대구 경북지역의 중학교 과학교사 113명과 중학생 715명을 대상으로 연구를 수행하였다. 통계기법으로는 주로 일원변량분석을 실시하였고, 교사와 학생간의 교과서 인식 차이를 알아보기 위해서는 t검증을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 한 결론은 다음과 같다. 중학교 교사의 인구학적 변인 중 교과서에 대한 인식의 차이를 나타내는 변인은 학교소재와 학급규모이었고, 교사의 연령, 성에 따라서는 별 차이가 없었다. 중학교 학생의 인구학적 변인 중 교과서에 대한 인식의 차이를 나타내는 변인은 학교소재와 남녀공학여부, 학급규모, 학년이었고, 성에 따라서는 차이가 없었다. 상대주의적 교수관을 가진 교사나 상대주의적 학습관을 가진 학생이 교과서의 지식을 상대적으로 보았으며, 학생중심의 교과서를 선호하였다. 교사들은 학생들보다 더 학생 중심으로 서술된 교과서를 선호하였고, 절대주의적인 지식관과 교수 학습관을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고, 학생들은 교사들보다 더 전자교과서를 선호하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate English teachers' perceptions about doing their own action research to find out the benefits of involvement in action research. I believe that teachers should engage in curriculum research and development because it relates to their own classrooms and because a primary aim for teacher education program is to give teachers ways of exploring their own classrooms. I focused on 17 graduate students who had undertaken action research during the fall semester of 2007 and administered a questionnaire about their perceptions of doing action research. The results revealed that their perceptions of doing action research fell into the following two categories, positive and negative aspects. For positive aspects, they experienced a sense of personal and professional growth and they underwent identity transformation from passive, etic-oriented, and uncritical to active, emic-oriented, and critical teachers. However, many of them expressed that major obstacles to doing action research were time constraints and lack of skills or training in conducting action research. Thus, it is suggested that both pre- and in-service teachers should consider conducting a language teaching diary study, doing collaborative action research, and acquiring all the necessary skills for conducting action research.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare the perceptions and needs for nutrition education between early childhood teachers and parents. This data will address the effective plans and suggest further nutrition education programs for early childhood education centers. This study was conducted with 200 early childhood teachers and 174 parents in Busan. We collected data through questionnaires from teachers and parents and then computed the frequency and ${\chi}^2$ test to analyze the data. The questionnaire was revised and complemented on the basis of related literatures and previous researches. According to our results in this study, there was a significant difference between the teachers' and parents' perceptions on the need of nutrition education and the reason for needing nutrition education. And there were differences among aims, contents, methods, and effective ways of nutrition education for children. In addition, there was a significant difference among the needs from teachers and parents on nutrition education. Finally, the results of this study suggest various implications for developing nutrition education programs in early childhood education centers. These results can be used to develop nutrition education program by considering the teachers' and parents' perceptions and needs. These may be useful data when planning for the nutrition curriculum in early childhood education centers.

  • Various modern social problems are also related with science and technology. Thorough understanding about Technology-Society(STS) interactions is required to take informed action about how to deal effectively with these problems. In this case, there is a need for STS education. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of high -school students and science teachers about Technology-Society interactions and differences of their perceptions. It is my hope that this thesis will contribute to future "General Science" class in Korea. We obtained the data by a survey of 414 high school students who took "General Science" courses in Seoul and 54 of their science teachers. The survey was made using 10 multiple-choice items selected from the VOSTS (Views On Science-Technology-Society) item pool. The results of this study are as follow: 1. More than half of the students and teachers thought that science is exploring the unknown and discovering new things. Their perceptions about the science are somewhat stable, but about the technology various. 2. Most students and teachers thought that science and technology interact and complement each other. They also thought that the improvement in the quality of life needs investments in both science and technology 3. Most students and teachers thought social facts as community, government, and politics influenced scientists and scientific research. They also had a good understanding about the effects of science and technology on society. We can conclude from this that they had a Science-Technology-Society oriented viewpoint. 4. There are significant differences between the perceptions of boys and girls in following categories (p<.05): Influence of Community or Government Agencies on Scientists Influence of Politics on Scientists Role of Scieoce/Technology in Resolving Social Problems 5. There are significant differences between the perceptions of students and teachers in following categories (p<.05): Definition of Science Influence of Politics on Scientists

  • In this study, we investigated the perceptions of elementary school teachers on the use of analogy generation in scientifically-gifted education. The relationships among the perceptions and the self-perception as teacher for scientifically-gifted students were also investigated. A survey was administered to 119 elementary school teachers, and in-depth interviews with some teachers were conducted. The results revealed that the teachers had a relatively good understanding of the advantages/disadvantages of analogy generation in cognitive, affective, and learning environmental aspects. Their perceptions on the usability of analogy generation and their willingness to practice of it in scientifically-gifted education was also positive. They highly perceived on the various factors related to effective uses of it in scientifically-gifted education. Their self-perception as teacher for scientifically-gifted students was comparatively low, and significantly related with the perceptions on the advantages of it, the usability, the practical methods to use, and the various factors related to effective uses in scientifically-gifted education. Educational implications of these findings are discussed.

  • The study aims to discover the scope of pre-service special education teachers' knowledge and perceptions of using computer technology in teaching students with disabilities from a pre-service teacher (PST) perspective in light of the gender and sub-major variables. The sample consisted of 84 MEd students/pre-service teachers at the Department of Special Education, Faculty of Education, Umm Al-Qura University. The descriptive analytical approach is used due to its relevance to the study. A survey consisting of the participant's basic information section and 12 statements was sent to a set of pre-service teachers. Findings showed that pre-service special education teachers had an overall high knowledge of using computer technology (M=3.93). Findings also indicated that there were no gender- or major-related statistically significant differences (α = 0.05), in pre-service special education students' knowledge and perceptions of using computer technology.
