  • Computer based instruction in the elementary science curriculum will be played an important role through the fifth curriculum reform from the 1989 school year. This is essential for the science instruction because the strategies on the problem-solvings and inquiry approaches can be utilized for the science classroom. Computer education can be thought as the education about the computer and the education using the computer. Of them the education using the computer means the computer assisted instruction(CAI) what is called all the possible activities using the computer in the classroom. Student achievement as the result of CAI depends on the learning activities of students and the instructional techniques and strategies of teachers using the computer. However, computer based education to enhance the student achievement is pointed out the lacks of the standardized Korean alphabet code and the compatibility of qualified software. These problems will be relieved according to the coding for the Korean alphabet of SUPER PILOT program language.

  • The purpose of study was to introduce and propagate the children's verses as the teaching/learning strategies in science education far elementary students and teachers. 238 pre-service teachers, 140 in-service teachers and 602 elementary students wrote the own verses and read colleague's verses with respect to science. In this situation, the writing was considered as creation and the reading was reception and appreciation for the verses. When they wrote the verses, the themes were not restricted except that they were related to science. Mostly, the subjects were something about science concepts, scientific phenomena or experimental instruments, etc. In addition, this study investigated the merits and demerits of the reading/writing activities of children's verses as the teaching/learning strategies in science classroom.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate science teachers' understandings about scientific argumentation in the classroom. Seven structured interview protocols were developed, asking the definition of scientific inquiry, the differentiation between scientific inquiry and hands-on activity, the opportunity of student argumentation, explicit teaching strategies for scientific argumentation, the critical example of argumentation, the criteria of successful argumentation, and the barrier of developing argumentation. The results indicate that there are differences and similarities in understandings about scientific argumentation between two groups of middle school teachers and upper elementary. Basically, teachers at middle school define scientific inquiry as the opportunity of practicing reasoning skills through argumentation, while teachers at upper elementary define it as the more opportunities of practicing procedural skills through experiments rather than of developing argumentation. Teachers in both groups have implemented a teaching strategy called "Claim-Evidence Approach," for the purpose of providing students with more opportunities to develop arguments. Students' misconception, limited scientific knowledge and perception about inquiry as a cycle without the opportunity of using reasoning skills were considered as barriers for implementing authentic scientific inquiry in the classroom.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of school safety education for children to increase their safety behavior. Method: The participants were 262 fourth graders enrolled in S elementary school located in Anyang city. The participants were randomly assigned to three groups. For the first experimental group, school safety education was provided for both children and parents. For the second experimental group, safety education was provided only for the children. For the control group, no treatment was given. Result: The first experimental group showed the highest increment on the classroom safety activities score. The first experimental group also had the highest increment on the outside-the-classroom safety activities score. Further, the first experimental group showed the highest increment on the traffic safety activities score. Conclusion: Safety education in the elementary school is very effective to ensure children are protected from school and traffic accidents. Also safety education can be more effective if safety related parent education programs are provided to parents. Therefore safety education should be provided systematically for both children and their parents to prevent childhood accidents.

  • For assessing classroom environment, numerous instruments were developed and reported the survey results for science students in science education. In this study I translated Constructivist Learning Environment Scales (CLES) were into Korean versions for elementary school teachers, and measured the reliability. The subjects were randomly selected from three departments of an University of Education in a metropolitan city. All of them were 110 students, who would be elementary school teachers. According to the survey results, pre-service teachers for elementary school have recognized constructivistly for learning environments in an actual forms. In a scale of student negotiation they have most constructivistly recognized learning environment, and moderately in scales of relevance, uncertainty and critical view while they have seldom constructivistly recognized in a scale of shared control. Also Korean version CLES would be an reliable instruments for constructivist assessing learning environments.

  • 정보통신기술은 교육을 큰 위기에 빠트리는 위험물질 취급을 받기도 하고, 위기에서 구원하는 구원자로 비추어지기도 한다. 한국 정부는 2011년 스마트교육 정책을 통해 정보통신기술을 적극 공교육의 학교들로 끌어들여 교육을 혁신하고 인재대국을 건설하겠다고 발표했다. 스마트교육은 타블렛 PC나 노트북과 같은 기기를 활용하여 수업을 진행할 수 있는 표준 교실 모델을 정립해 각 학교에 확산, 정착시키고자 했다. 이 논문은 스마트교육 정책이 꿈꾸었던 스마트교실이 실제 교육 현장에서는 어떤 마찰을 일으켰는지 분석한다. 이를 위해 스마트교육 정책의 방향과 이상을 분석하고, 실제로 스마트한 교실 환경을 구축하고 있는 학교 세 곳에 방문해 시설 견학 및 심층 인터뷰를 수행했다. 스마트교육 정책이 제안한 이상적 교실은 모델하우스처럼 깔끔한 공간에 스마트폰처럼 다양한 기능을 한 번에 갖춘 패키지였지만 일상적으로 보통 교실처럼 활용되기 어려웠다. 각 학교는 모델을 수용하는 대신 규모, 지역 특성, 학생들과 교사의 사회경제적 상황, 교사의 경험, 기존 인프라의 유무 등의 요인들이 조합되는 방식에 따라 각자의 방식으로 "스마트"해졌다. A 초등학교에서는 기계가 학교의 공간을 길들여 자신만의 공간을 만들어내는 한편 이동을 위해서는 학교의 규칙에 따르게 되었다. B 초등학교에서는 학교 전반을 아우르는 인프라가 만들어지지는 못했지만 선생님의 경험에 힘입어 조직화했으며, C 초등학교에서는 특정 교실에 밀집되어 선생님의 전문성을 증진시켰다. 스마트교실의 구성하고 있던 기기들은 분해되고, 맥락에 맞게 재조합되어 각 학교의 교실들을 "스마트"하게 만들었다.

  • For teachers' conceptions and understandings are critical to their decision making and classroom practice, this study attempts to understand pre-service elementary teachers' views and practices of science inquiry during peer teaching practice. Fifteen 4th year university students in teacher education program participated in peer teaching practice. Their teaching and reflective discussion were video and audio recorded and written lesson plans were collected for data analysis. Five science teacher educators individually looked into the data and shared their comments and interpretations on pre-service teachers' views and practice. The study findings suggest that pre-service teachers emphasized the importance of providing students with motivating resources in the beginning of lesson, employing certain inquiry teaching models, the process of predicting and dis/proving via experiment, and teachers' minimal intervention as the important features of inquiry teaching. Science teacher educators emphasized that it is critical to help children understand inquiry questions in the beginning of inquiry process, to be mindful of children's problem solving and critical thinking rather than following instruction models or simply going through prediction and test process. They also commented that teachers' guidance could lead a good inquiry process in classroom practice, not always interfering students' inquiry. Based on the findings, the study suggests science teacher educators need to understand what and how pre-service teachers view and practice science inquiry teaching and consider these as useful resources where they can start effective teaching for pre-service teachers at the university level.
