최근 국내외에서 교육의 현장에 대한 이해가 절실해지면서 '교실'에 대한 관심이 크게 부상하고 있다. 본 연구는 영어권을 중심으로 교실 연구의 최근 동향을 검토한 다음, 교실의 이해를 위해 긴요하지만 지금까지 다분히 간과되어 온 주제로서 '교실의 공간성' 문제를 제기하고 이를 '교실 공간 메타포'를 통해 접근하는 데에 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 영어권의 최근 동향에 주목하면서 최근의 교실 연구에서는 교실 그 자체를 수단이 아닌 목적으로 다루고 있으며 방법론에 있어서도 모종의 전환을 보이고 있다는 점을 확인할 수 있었고, 이를 근거로 최근의 일단의 교실 연구들을 염두에 두고 '교실론'의 설정 가능성을 제안하였다. 다음으로 최근의 교실론의 지평을 확장함에 있어서 매우 중요하면서도 다분히 간과되었던 주제가 바로 '교실의 공간성'에 대한 논의임을 제기하였다. 여기에 접근하기 위해 연구자는 '메타포' 개념을 동원하였고, 전통적 교실 연구에서 상정하는 교실 공간 메타포를 크게 '작업장으로서의 교실'과 '연극 무대로서의 교실'로 범주화할 수 있었다. 그리고, 최근의 교실론을 바탕으로 '삶의 공간으로서의 교실'이라는 새로운 메타포를 제시하면서 여기에 내포된 교육적 함의를 제3공간에 대한 논의와 연결시켜 도출해 보고자 하였다.

진통 인지심리학과 달리 상황인지이론은 학습의 구성주의 본성을 강하게 반영하는 교육학 이론으로 이해된다. 학교에서 상황학습을 하기 위해서는 교실상황은 교수와 학습이 진정으로 일어나는 장소로 매우 중요하다. 인간의 정신활동인 학습은 그것이 일어나는 상황과 맥락에 의존하면서 학습 결과보다는 과정에, 그리고 실제 상황에서의 학습의 경험을 강조하고 있다. 수학교육에서는 주어진 정형화된 수학문제를 해결하는 것을 넘어서는 능력을 요구하고 있다. 본 논문의 목적은, 수학함이 잘 일어나도록 하기 위해 상황인지이론과 그에 토대한 상황학습이 수학 교실수업에 어떤 시사점을 주고, 어떤 방향으로 나아가야 하는지를 밝히고자 한다. 이를 위하여 상황인지와 상황학습을 간단하게 설명하고, 수학자들이 행하는 수학과 교실에서의 수학을 비교하여 보고, 상황인지론의 3가지 관점에 따른 수학교육과 관련성을 검토하고, 수학교육에서의 적용할 방안을 검토, 제시하고자 한다.

This study aims to suggest a Biophilic classroom design of high school to obtain attention restoration for students. The learning space for youth in the modern society is composed of dry artificial structures. This space is considered to be a space that can not relieve stress caused by learning. "The Attention Restoration Theory" is divided into "Directed Attention" of humans, which is the cause of fatigue and stress, and "Involuntary Attention" as a solution to it. "Involuntary Attention" takes place in a rest state and helps the brain recover when exposed to nature. And the core of "Biophilic-Design Theory" is that humans can recover physical and mental conditions when exposed to nature. The purpose of this study is to apply "The Biophilic-Design Theory" that emphasizes the importance of exposure to nature to the educational space and plan the space where the 'Attention Restoration' can be achieved. The research method is as follows. First, we review previous studies related to "The Biophilic-Design Theory" and "The Attention Restoration Theory". Second, we analyze the application examples of "The Biophilic-Design Theory" and "The Attention Restoration Theory" in domestic and foreign educational spaces. Third, the concept of educational space is set up based on the elements derived from previous studies. Finally, we propose the planning direction of classroom design based on Biophilic-Design. The following conclusions were drawn. First, The creation of the education space to restore the learner's attention requires a visual space plan that utilizes natural elements such as natural light, artificial light, plants, and natural materials that can directly experience nature. Second, the direction in which students in the classroom can be "The Attention Restoration Theory" should consider the use of indirect natural elements that bring the surrounding natural landscape into the interior. This study will be used as the baseline data for the spatial design and planning of education facilities based on Biophilic-Design.

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.

The role of interaction in second language (L2) classrooms has been examined from different angles, ranging from early studies of foreigner talk to the studies of the teacher- and task-based talk. However, most of the research on L2 classroom interaction has been based on a traditional psycholinguistic view of language and learning, failing to reconceptualize a broad and holistic understanding of L2 learning. Currently, many researchers have attempted to explore and describe classroom interaction in L2 classrooms from a sociocultural perspective. The purpose of this paper is to discuss Vygotsky's theoretical framework in terms of L2 classroom interaction and research from a sociocultural perspective, by describing three key concepts (zone of proximal development, private speech, and activity theory) in Vygotsky's theoretical framework and relating them to L2 classroom interaction. The results demonstrated the importance of social interaction for second language acquisition with the review of the related research study. It was also suggested that the dynamic and interactive processes of second language learning in the classroom should be valued by L2 researchers as well as L2 teachers. Finally, implications for the concepts for L2 classroom research and pedagogy are presented in the conclusion.

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.

The notion of contradiction from Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) perspectives is known as an "engine" for the development of human practices because participants attempt to adjust their practices to resolve contractions. This study examines two middle school teachers' classroom practices from CHAT, focusing on the role of contradictions that emerged between their existing teaching practices and constructivist activities in the development of a student-centered technology-integrated learning environment. Findings indicated that teachers' awareness and resolution of contradictions played a large role in the development of a technology-supported student-centered learning environment, a culturally more advanced activity system: students displayed greater responsibilities for their learning and were guided to make effective decisions for their learning activity.

This study deals with the postmodern perspectives in mathematics classroom. Today, mathematics and mathematics education can be explored through postmodernism because they have very different practices, pluralism, and anti-authoritarianism. Thus practices and researches of mathematics classroom are coherent to postmodern perspectives such as situated theory, anthropological approach, and interactionism. In these socio-cultural views, learners' milieu and participation, language of classroom activities, and culture of mathematics classroom are considered very important. Therefore, it is required that both mathematics educators and researchers make a change toward postmodernism in attitude and subject of mathematics classroom research.

Conducted as an ethnographic examination of science teaching and learning in an Innovative Middle School in Korea, this study employs sociocultural theory to examine how structures afford and limit student participation in an innovative school designed to promote student-centered learning. Data includes teacher and student interviews, student responses to a questionnaire, classroom observations, and analysis of video recordings of ten lessons in two in two 8th grade science classes. Using structure|agency dialectic theory, we identify and describe some structures that afford and limit teacher and student agency at the micro (science classrooms), meso (school), and macro (Korean society) levels to raise some questions about current reform measures, such as innovation schools, that seek to position classroom teachers as agents for change in science education reform in Korea. Findings suggest that while teachers and school administrators play an essential role in structuring learning opportunities at the meso and micro levels, they have limited agency to address structural constraints originating at the macro-level, which can negatively impact teaching and learning in the science classroom. We offer implications for policy and practice and argue the need for more qualitative research, informed by sociocultural theory, to inform science education reform efforts in Korea.

이 연구는 언어학적 이론을 과학교육 실제에 접목시켜 '교수학적 담화분석'의 초석을 마련하는데 그 목적이 있다. 교수학적 담화분석이란 언어학적 담화분석을 통해서, 수업언어에 대한 기술을 넘어, 교육적 함의를 이끌어 내는데 초점적인 관심을 둔다. 특히 이 연구에서는 지금까지 과학수업 담화에서 큰 관심을 받지 못했던 담화의 구성적 측면을 중심으로 교수학적 담화분석을 시도하였다. 이를 위해 체계기능언어학의 '주제 구조'와 '정보 구조'를 두 축으로 하는 '교수학적 담화분석틀'을 제안하였다. 그리고 이것의 가능성과 유용성을 탐색하기 위해서, 실제 과학수업의 담화분석 사례를 제시하였다. 이러한 노력은 언어학 이론에 경도되었던 종전의 과학수업 담화분석 연구에서 진일보하여, 교육의 맥락을 보다 충실하게 반영할 수 있는 논의를 위한 새로운 지평을 마련할 것으로 보인다.
