A Study on the Reform of School Mathematics and the Education of Teachers in Modernization of Elementary School Mathematics

초등수학교육의 현대화에 따른 교육내용의 개선 및 교사교육에 관한 연구

In this report. it is assumed in the first chapter. various motives for modernizing of school mathematics can be indicated as the development of modern mathematics the highly advanced technology. the emergence of computor, and the progress of symbol logic. It is also confirmed that its modernizing process contains the modernization of contents in school mathematics. the broad application of school mathematics. the intellectualization of school mathematics. and the variation of its educational process. And the following chapter of this report is composed of the comparative study on the modernizing tendency of school mathematics among the SMSG of U. S. A., the mathematical education in France. and the late tendancy of Japan. The most significant part of the report is the chapter which propose the new program for school mathematics. It establishes the direction of school mathematics and its purpose. And at the same time it divides its fundamental conceptions into six parts according to school grades; the number. the operation. the functional relation. the quality and measure, the geometry, and the statistics. For the perspective of school mathematics, it is probable that the program for education and training of teachers could be realized, if it were spported by the system of specializing teachers and of functional teachers with advanced technology of education. Particularly the education of teachers contains the training of teachers as well as educational administrators or parents. Finally, the report concludes that the necessity of research required for the development of school mathematics must be emphasized in regard to the established program of teacher training.
