Exploring the Implications of the Teacher's Training Course through analysis of Questions in Pedagogy for the Certification Examination of Secondary Education Teachers

The purpose of this study is to analyze the questions in pedagogy for the certification examination of secondary education teachers between 2002 and 2010, in order to discuss the implications for the operation of the teacher's training course. With such an objective, such things as the trend of setting questions in pedagogy for the certification examination of secondary education teachers, the frequency of certain questions according to the 'basic subjects and fields' proposed by the Korea Institute of Curriculum & Evaluation, and the frequency of questions related to the contents of each field of evaluation have been analyzed. The results of the study can be summarized as follows. Firstly, after analyzing the suggested forms of questions in pedagogy and the contents requiring answers, it seems that the suggested forms of questions have become complicated enough to suggest illustrations or examples, instead of simply suggesting forms. Also, the contents requiring answers have suggested the complicated knowledge or the form of understanding, instead of showing the simple knowledge or the form of memory. In particular, the number of questions has been reduced from 50 to 40. Since 2009 when the multiple-choice questions with four examples were changed to those with five examples, such a trend of change has been clearly identified. Secondly, after analyzing the frequency of questions for the six basic subjects and fields, it seems that the questions are based on certain fields of evaluation for most basic subjects and fields. Thirdly, after analyzing the frequency of questions for the contents from each field of evaluation, it has been found that more than 50% of the entire questions are repeatedly chosen. Since it is possible to become teachers only through the certification examination, the forms and frequency of questions greatly influence the operation of the teacher's training course. The implications suggested by the results of the study on the teacher's training course have been discussed in various aspects.
