ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to explore the level of perception on teaching competency of special education teachers and the level of their needs. To these ends, 162 special education teachers were asked to complete the questionnaire designed by using literature review. Results were as follows. First, there were significant differences between the importance level and current status level of five sub teaching competencies. As well, there were statistically significant differences according to sociodemographic variables such as career period, school class, duty organ, and status of homeroom teacher. Second, in terms of special education teachers’ needs on the teaching competency, they needed various competencies such as ‘assessment the learning outcomes with proper instrument for evaluation’, ‘understanding a series of inter-subject and intra-subject’, ‘self-reflection and peer-evaluation after class’, and ‘delivering an individualized instruction’. Based on these findings, practical strategics for developing teaching competencies were suggested.
