The results of the research are as follows. First, factors influencing elementary school teachers who choose the science museum as a place for field trips were 'student's interest', 'teacher's own experience related to the science museum', 'science curriculum', 'suggestions from a fellow teacher', 'space available for field work' and so on. Second, 82% of the respondents conducted pre-education program, but they mainly conducted safety education. Third, the teacher conducted post-education program less than pre-education program. In the post-education program, the most activities were to express and share knowledge and experience gained from the science museum.

The purposes of this study are to investigate the perception of renewable energy technology among elementary school teachers, and confirm whether elementary school teachers have basic knowledge about renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and tidal power generation. We conducted preliminary interviews to gather information related to other studies about renewable energy. We developed the last interview question about the perception and knowledge of elementary school teachers regarding renewable energy. This study analyzed the transcribed responses of 10 elementary school teachers in Siheung-city, Gyeonggi-do, following 30-minute interviews. The study's findings are as follows. First, elementary school teachers recognize that they are unfamiliar with concepts and they have only shallow content knowledge about renewable energy. And they tended to distorted to other concepts, and analyze to different meanings. Second, elementary school teachers thought that knowledge about renewable energy should be part of a well-rounded education. And they felt positively about solar energy and wind power energy generation but they had a negative view towards tidal power generation because it destroys tideland. Third, teachers tended to confuse solar heat energy and geothermal energy, they tend to think this two energy sources the same. Teachers had generally correct concepts about wind power energy generation. In the case of tidal power generation, elementary school teachers answered mechanically that it is possible on the western sea, and that 'the difference between the rise and fall of the tide' grows. But they could not talk in depth about 'the difference between the rise and fall of the tide' and the force of waves. This suggests that they are answering by simple memorization and without deep understanding.

이 연구의 목적은 초등 예비교사들은 '과학'에 대해 어떻게 이해하고 있는지를 알아보기 위한 것이다. 특히 이번 연구에서는 초등 예비교사들의 '과학'에 대한 이해를 구체적으로 알아보기 위해 포토 내러티브의 방법을 이용하였다. 포토 내러티브는 연구참여자가 이야기하고자 하는 것을 사진을 찍어 설명하는 방법을 말한다. 연구참여자는 초등 예비교사 66명이었다. 연구 결과, 첫째, 초등 예비교사들은 과학을 설명하기 위해 현상, 원리와 같은 과학적 용어뿐만 아니라, 사람, 생활, 일상과 같은 단어를 많이 사용하였다. 둘째, 초등 예비교사들이 과학을 설명하기 위해 사용한 사진에는 생활용품, 자연현상, 첨단기기, 생물 등이 있었다. 셋째, 초등 예비교사들은 과학을 학문과 지식, 탐구, 편리함, 과학의 본성 등으로 설명하고 있었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 초등 예비교사들이 과학을 생활과 밀접하고 필요한 학문으로 인식하고 있음을 알게 되었으며, 이번 연구결과가 앞으로 초중등 과학교육의 교육과정 구성 및 교과 내용 편성은 물론 교사양성을 위한 교육과정 편성에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이라 생각된다.

교육의 패러다임이 전환되면서 평가관행에서의 변화 또한 꾸준히 요구되어 오고 있다. 평가에 대한 교사의 올바른 인식은 평가의 질에 영향을 미치며 결과적으로 평가관행에서의 변화를 유도할 수 있게 된다. 본 연구는 초등 예비교사들의 수학교과에서의 평가에 대한 인식을 조사하기 위해 선행연구를 토대로 평가의 목적과 역할, 평가 자료와 평가의 신뢰도 그리고 평가 방법과 전략에 대한 문항들을 추출하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 총 95명의 초등 예비교사들을 대상으로 설문조사한 결과, 초등 예비교사들이 평가의 역할, 평가 자료, 평가 전략에 대해서는 대체적으로 잘 인식하고 있었으나, 평가의 목적과 평가의 신뢰도, 평가 방법에 대해서는 다소 제한적인 인식을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 설문조사 결과를 바탕으로 초등 예비교사들의 평가에 대한 인식이 부족한 측면들에 대한 가능한 해석과 시사점을 제공하였다.

In general, teachers' perceptions on the physical environment of elementary school are related on the quality of education and school life. But, we don't have study what teachers think of their enviroment of school. This study analyzed elementary school teachers' satisfaction with overall physical environment and their assessment of spaces with specific functions in order to understand teachers' perception of the physical environment of elementary schools. A survey questionnaire was administered to 982 homeroom teachers working at 67 elementary schools located in Seoul and Busan. Teachers' satisfaction with physical environment of school and their assessment were analyzed comparatively according to the teachers' personal attributes and school conditions. 1) Most of the surveyed teachers were satisfied with overall physical environment of the school, and assessed high the substantiality of functional spaces indoor and outdoor. By sub-factor, however, their satisfaction with work environment was lower than that with education and living environment. 2) The teachers perceived that the optimal number of classes was 30~36, and this is probably because they were relatively accustomed to large scale schools. 3) As might be expected, negative assessments were more frequent among teachers working at a large-scale school, an old school, or a school with small outdoor spaces. The results of this study show that, though partially different according to region, gender, teaching experience and school condition, teachers' satisfaction with school environment was relatively high. This suggests that elementary school teachers perceive their current school environment positively. Because they are accustomed to traditional education methods that have been maintained.
