Abstract

In this study, we tried to suggest a meaningful teaching method that is a mathematical thinking-oriented. After referring to the recent trend of mathematics education, we examined the direction that school mathematics should go. Next, we considered previous studies that deals with teaching methods focusing on the mathematical thinking. On the basis of the above examination, we accomplished case studies that aims at mathematical thinking-oriented teaching. And we explained that these case studies reflects the key points didactics of mathematics such as the education of ‘open mathematics’, constructivism etc. Finally, we proposed the necessity of mathematical thinking-oriented teaching in the current state of school mathematics.
