Abstract
The aims of this study are to identify Dewey's theory on mathematics education and to clarify its influence on the modern theories of mathematics education. For this purpose, we have examined Dewey's theory of knowledge named as pragmatism or instrumentalism, and studied the Dewey's theory of education in which he maintained education is the reconstruction of experiences. And then, we have examined Dewey's theory on mathematics education, such as theory of mathematics, purpose of mathematics education, contents of mathematics education, and methods of mathematics education respectively. After that, we have analyzed how his theory on mathematics education is connected with the diverse theories of modern mathematics education, such as Piaget's operational constructivism, Freudenthal's theory of realistic mathematics education, Polya's theory on mathematical problem-solving, and social constructivism. Through this study, we might say that Dewey's theory on mathematics education is a prototype of modern theories of mathematics education and a comprehensive paradigm which is very suggestive to the phenomena of mathematics education.
이 논문의 목적은 Dewey의 지식론과 교육론에 입각하여 'Dewey의 수학교육론'을 정립하고, 이를 바탕으로 Dewey의 수학교육론이 현대의 여러 수학교육 이론에 어떻게 반영되어 있는지를 밝히고자 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 프래그머티즘 혹은 도구주의로 불려지는 Dewey의 지식론과, 교육은 경험의 재구성이라는 Dewey의 교육론을 고찰하였다. 이어서 Dewey의 수학교육론을 수학론, 수학교육 목적론, 내용론, 방법론으로 구분하여 체계적인 분석
