The two series of studies were conducted in this project to investigate actual conditions among the sized-reduced learning group teaching under the policy that MECSST notified in 2001.
The result of the first study uncovered that the size-reduced learning group teaching is in force in elementary school math class and in lower-secondary school math and English classes more than other subjects, and it is often in case that proficiency-dependent teaching with splitting regular classroom or team teaching were addressed as the size-reduced learning group teaching. It is also revealed that teachers who are engaged in the size-reduced learning group teaching instructed their students with corresponding to their achievement and/or interest.
In the second study, it is examined that the effect of size-reduced learning group teaching on students' achievement, attentiveness, and learning attitude] inquiring into 4th and 6th math and 8th grade math and English classes. The result indicated that some of size-reduced learning group teaching methods were more efficient than traditional whole-class teaching through the grades and subjects. Furthermore, the importance of contriving ways to instruct students was discussed.
More information could be got in these reports ; Actual conditions of size-reduced learning group teaching and its' effect-with Referring to the result of the survey on principal, teachers, and students (March, 2003) for the former study, and Comparative study of instructional methods-Achievement, attentiveness, and learning attitude (March, 2004), for the latter study.
