초등학교 영어수업 분석을 통한 영어로 진행하는 영어수업(TEE) 평가도구의 적용가능성 연구

A study of applicability of the Teaching English in English(TEE) assessment tool through an analysis of the elementary school level English class

This study is aimed to identify the applicability of the TEE tool by implementing the TEE in an elementary English teaching context and to promote an improvement of a classroom English teaching by providing a chance to examine English teachers’ TEE ability in terms of evaluating TEE. More specifically, this study tested whether the TEE assessment tool postulated by Lee, Kim, Lee, Lee, and Jang (2009), was applicable to elementary school level English classes. Five Korean and five English native teachers participated in this study, and eighteen TEE video clips were measured using the TEE assessment tool. Our findings revealed that while those assessment elements are observable and feasible, redundancy of the assessment elements were observed. In addition, while the TEE assessment tool was fully reliable and valid within the participants, it had only partially different results. The results are discussed in terms of exploring new possible directions in elementary-level assessment, and evaluation of the TEE implementation in various levels of the elementary English education system as well as the overall development of TEE proficiency and the role of implementation in elementary English teaching context.
