The purpose of this study is to develop a STEAM education model on the basis of mathematics curriculum using real life context, and to analyze the effect of the class based on developed model to make applicable pedagogical discussion. For this purpose, STEAM class materials that can be used in terms of recognition, connection, extension, and application of mathematical concepts, principles and laws are considered, taking into consideration the ways in which real life contexts and mathematical learning could be harmonized. As a results of using these materials, it was empirically confirmed that students' cognitive thinking and affective aspects abilities were improved. The STEAM instruction centered on the mathematics curriculum and the mathematics class based on the data developed in this study have a unique identity compared to the conventional general mathematics teaching methods using the textbooks. And it is pursuing the future class model which could present desirable creativity and personality education. The result of this study would provide preliminary data and meaningful implications to the researchers for next curriculum and concomitant instructional materials as well as the mathematics teachers.

Because of the local college students' learning ability stands on a relatively low level, this research is accomplished to inspire students with further desires, considering students' learning ability and desire. As a result of research we can find the existence of the learning ability difference between the students in local colleges and in the capital area colleges. From the multiphasic personality inventory and the personal orientation inventory it is confirmed that the personalities of the students in both areas are almost same, and from the question investigation it is confirmed that the students in local colleges have relatively low interests of their curriculums and few confidence of success as a expert.

Character means a person's nature and the mind and behavior to lead a desirable life personally and socially. Also character can be changed with education and environment. Therefore character education will be possible to do practice through various educational activities and life experiences in school. In other words, we think that students will get person's character required to lead a desirable life personally and socially beyond what they just learn knowledge and skill, enter the higher schools and succeed one's way. This study accepts merits of existing character education policy through subject(mathematics) education and focus on direction for character education through subject(mathematics) education for systematic and synthetic approach for practice of character education. For this, we will see applicability of the plan for character education in the whole subject education, in particular focusing on cases of character education in mathematics subject.

2009 revised national curriculum for mathematics emphasizes the mathematical processes which consist of mathematical problem solving, mathematical reasoning, and mathematical communication. This study focused on applying these processes to an elementary school class for mathematics. Even though they say that it is desirable that the mathematical processes are realized in every mathematics class, any vague intention for their application without specific plans is apt to be apart from meaningful practice. Therefore this study proposed a lesson plan about the characteristics and the comparison of bar graphs and line graphs for 4th grade students based on the mathematical processes. And we applied it to 27 subjects. By observing and analyzing their activities and communications, we discussed about the guidelines of applying the mathematical processes to elementary school classes for mathematics.
