The purpose of this study was to analyze one science teacher's understanding of student argumentation and his explicit teaching strategies for implementing it in the classroom. One middle school science teacher, Mr. Field, and his students of 54 participated in this study. Data were collected through three semi-structured interviews, 60 hours of classroom observations, and two times of students' lab reports for eight weeks. Coding categories were developed describing the teacher's understanding of scientific argumentation and a description of the main teaching strategy, the Claim-Evidence Approach, was introduced. Toulmin's approach was employed to analyze student discourse as responses to see how much of this discourse was argumentative. The results indicated that Mr. Field defined scientific inquiry as the abilities of procedural skills through experimentation and of reasoning skills through argumentation. The Claim-Evidence Approach provided students with opportunities to develop their own claims based on their readings, design the investigation for evidence, and differentiate pieces of evidence from data to support their claims and refute others. During this approach, the teacher's role of scaffolding was critical to shift students' less extensive argumentation to more extensive argumentation through his prompts and questions. The different level of teacher's involvement, his explicit teaching strategy, and the students' scientific knowledge influenced the students' ability to develop and improve argumentation.

This study intends to find out the desirable teacher's image and to investigate the ideal appearance of the female teacher. The subjects were gathered into 403 high school girls, and convenience sampling was done regarding the number of schools classified by districts and regional characteristics of school. And for analysis of data frequency, percentage, mean, cronbach'$\alpha$ , $x^{2}-test$, 1-test, F-test, Duncan's Multiple Range Test, Factor-Analysis, were conducted. The results are as follows; 1.

Many developing countries consider ICT as a key enabler to improve their educational systems and teachers are viewed as change agents. This paper aims to present policy suggestions concerning how to foster teachers' ICT competencies in developing countries based on the outcomes of an ODA project case in Peru. This study was conducted through three stages: Literature survey, site visit, and policy suggestions. To draw relevant policy suggestions, we employed the framework of the 'macro-meso-micro' level of teacher professional development. The following policy suggestions are discussed: (a) macro level: to develop the national framework of teacher ICT competencies and competency-based teacher training, (b) meso-level: to promote teacher communities of practices and school-based research programs, and (c) micro-level: to redesign teacher professional development programs to help teachers better understand the complex relationships between content, pedagogy, and technology, beyond learning about basic ICT literacy skills. This study contributes to the understanding of how ODA projects can approach the issue of teacher ICT capacity building at multiple levels.

이 연구의 목적은 유치원 누리과정 사회관계 영역과 예술경험 영역에 대한 교원들의 이해도를 분석하여 유치원 교원들의 전문성 신장을 위한 연수 자료 또는 주요 교육 프로그램 구안의 기초 자료를 제공하는 것이다. 연구에 사용된 도구는 사회관계 활동과 예술경험 활동에 대한 교원들의 이해도 조사 설문 22문항이었다. 연구 참여자는 유치원 현직교원 650명과 예비교원 78명으로 총 728명이였다. 조사 결과 분석에 사용된 프로그램은 SPSS 23이었고, 자료 분석의 유의수준은 .05, .01, .001이었다. 본 연구 결과 자료에 근거하여 제시할 수 있는 결론은 누리과정을 운영하는 과정에서 인구통계학적 변인별로 상대적 보완책을 강화하여 운영 할 필요가 있음을 발견하였다. 즉, 유치원 교원들을 대상으로 하는 교육이나 연수 활동은 유치원의 설립유형별-운영형태별 분석 결과와 교원들의 근무지역별-담당학급 규모별-담당 유아 연령별 분석 결과, 교원들의 경력-연령-소지자격별 분석 결과, 그리고 현장교원과 예비교사의 이해도 분석 결과별로 보완책을 수립하여 운영하여야 한다는 것이다. 따라서 유아교육을 위한 사회관계 활동의 경우는 유아 자신에 대한 관심을 바탕으로 자신이 가능한 일들과 가족들을 위해 할 수 있는 일을 실천하면서 이들을 소중하게 생각하는데 초점이 맞추어져야 하고, 유아교육을 위한 예술경험 활동의 경우는 음악적 요소-움직임 요소-미술적 요소 등을 탐색하여 예술적 표현 활동과 감상 활동이 통합된 경험이 되도록 하는데 초점이 맞추어져야 한다는 것이다.

Teacher written feedback on student compositions has received tremendous attention in second language (L2) writing research. Notwithstanding the importance of understanding both teachers' and students' perspectives on the feedback process, much of the feedback research has only looked into one-side of the story - adopting either the teacher's or the student's perspective. The current study is an attempt to look into both sides of the story by examining the types of written feedback that students prefer, the extent to which students' preferences and teachers' actual feedback practice overlap, and the extent to which student perceptions of teacher feedback coordinate teacher self-reflections on their feedback practice. Three English composition classes (3 teachers and 46 students) at a university participated in this study. It analyzed student and teacher data from questionnaires and teacher written feedback on student compositions. The results showed that students' preference for feedback on global and local issues varied across the three composition classes. This is partly a consequence of how students perceived the type of feedback that their teachers practiced. Teacher self-reflection on and student perception of teacher written-feedback generally coordinated. These findings are discussed in light of how contextual factors affect learner perception of teacher written feedback and underscore the need for examining students' reactions to feedback and teacher self-reflection.

이 연구에서는 화학교육을 전공하는 4명의 예비교사들과 화학을 전공한 2명의 예비교사들을 대상으로 고등학교 화학II 교과서에 제시된 "묽은 용액의 성질" 단원에 관련된 개념의 이해를 비교하였다. 연구결과, 예비교사들 중에 고등학교 화학II 교과서에 제시된 내용을 깊이 있게 이해하는 예비교사들이 많지 않았으며, 묽은 용액의 성질에 관련된 오개념을 가지고 있는 경우도 나타났다. 그리고 사범대학에서 화학교육을 전공한 예비교사들의 이해수준과 비사범대학에서 화학을 전공한 예비교사들의 이해수준은 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 연구에 참여한 대부분의 예비교사들은 대학과 상관없이 그들의 예비교사 교육과정에서 실천적 지식이 부족하다고 느끼고 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to introduce the Knowledge Quartet (KQ) framework by which we can analyze teacher knowledge revealed in teaching mathematics. Specifically, this paper addressed how the KQ framework has been developed and employed in the context of research on teacher knowledge. In order to make the framework accessible, this paper analyzed an elementary school teacher's knowledge in teaching her fifth grade students how to figure out the area of a trapezoid using the four dimensions of the KQ (i.e., foundation, transformation, connection, and contingency). This paper is expected to provide mathematics educators with a basis of understanding the nature of teacher knowledge in teaching mathematics and to induce further detailed analyses of teacher knowledge using some dimensions of the KQ framework.

Our gorvernment announced an educational reformation bill to establish the institutional foundation of educational system on May 31, in 1995. To secure the open education which is to foster students' creativity, individualization and personalization, it was requested that the past teacher-centered system should be changed to learner-centered system. To gurantee such a change, however, there are many conditions that has to be satisfied first. I think that the most important thing for the new system is a close interaction between teachers and students. To accomplish a successful interaction, the teachers' understanding and attitude toward their students must change at first. The purpose of this study is to examine what kind of understanding and attitude the teachers need, and what kind of roles teachers must take charge of. At the same time, I suggest that we need to establish a Teacher Center to give teachers a seperate place to learn new theories, and to exchange among themselves the informations they got from the actual field experience.

Initial science teacher education in Hong Kong is provided by the Post-graduate Diploma in Education Programme (PGDE) for both pre-service and in-service secondary school teachers. This programme includes a balanced treatment of subject curriculum and teaching in science, general pedagogical knowledge and skills, educational psychology and school administration. The science courses in this programme also have some units that equip science teachers with the knowledge and skills that are essential for teaching a science curriculum that emphasises conceptual change and understanding of the nature and methods of science. This emphasis is illustrated by two studies: (1) Developing a conceptual change model of instruction in Biology teachers, and (2) Constructing understanding of the nature and methods of science.
