현실적 수학교육은 탐구학습, 열린학습 등을 통해 수학적 사고력, 문제해결력을 신장하려는 최근의 수학교육의 방향에 걸맞는 새로운 교수${\cdot}$학습 방법의 하나로 주목받고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 고등학교 확률과 통계 영역에서 현실적 수학교육을 적용하기 위한 문맥을 개발하였다. 이 문맥들은 수학사, 자연 및 사회 현상, 실생활의 상황, 타 교과에서의 활용 상황 등 다양한 분야에서 고등학교 2${\sim}$2학년 수준에 알맞게 개발되었다.

Teachers' philosophies have not been emphasized enough in the current teacher education curriculum even though teacher's philosophy palys a critical role in schools and classrooms. The examination on pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies is necessary to improve teacher education curriculum so that teaching philosophies are often discussed in the courses of 'pedagogical content knowledge' as well as 'general education.' Therefore, the current study investigated 44 pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies, their sub domains, and relationships among the sub domains. The previous studies regarding mathematics teacher's teaching philosophy were more about 'teacher's belief' and employed deductive inference approach using surveys or questionnaires. These studies commonly pointed out that there were three major domains of 'belief on mathematics itself,' 'belief on teaching mathematics,' and 'belief on learning mathematics.' As these three domains of teacher's philosophy has been strengthened, there were very few studies examining the other potential domains of teacher's teaching philosophy. According to the findings of the present study, which employed inductive inference approach and pre-service teachers' free essay writing assignment, 'belief on teacher's role in mathematics classroom,' 'belief on the purpose of mathematics education,' and 'motivation to be a mathematics teacher' were additionally illuminated as sub domains of teacher's teaching philosophy. Moreover, the interrelationship among the sub-areas of teacher's teaching philosophy was disclosed. Specifically, 'belief on the purpose of mathematics education' and 'motivation to be a mathematics teacher' influenced the other sub domains. This implies that the relationships among the sub domains of teacher's teaching philosophy were more likely to be causal and vertical relationships rather than independent and parallel relationships. Finally, the findings from the current study provide implications indicating how pre-service teachers' teaching philosophies might be established in mathematics education courses for future research and education.

최근 초등수학교육에서 구성주의는 현대사회가 요구하는 수학적 사고력 신장을 위한 하나의 대안으로 수학교육의 이론적 연구와 실제적 개혁을 이끌어 오고 있다. 그러나, 구성주의적 인식론은 수학교육에서 그 자체가 수학교수에 대한 하나의 대안으로 받아들여져서, 교수활동에 대한 실제적인 모색은 활발하지 못했다.(중략)

최근 Ma에 의한 한 연구는 국 ${\cdot}$ 내 외에서 상당한 관심을 불러일으키고 있다. 미국의 수학교육, 특히 초등 수학 교육 현장의 근본적인 문제점을 명확히 지적했기 때문일 것이다. 본 글에서는 그의 연구를 개략적으로 소개한다. 특히, 그의 연구로부터 교사의 교과 내용에 관한 정확한 이해와 지식이 얼마나 중요한지 주목하여, 우리 나라의 수학교육에 관한 시사점을 교사 교육과 교사 재교육 등의 측면에서 도출한다.

This study is on a supplementary textbook, a mathematics activity book which is first introduced in the fifth curriculum. There was three revision of mathematics activity book with the change of curriculum. On this study, the aim of introducing mathematics activity book, the direction of development, the organization system and the relation with curriculum were analyzed systematically on the basis of literature consideration.

The purpose of this study is to research the meaning of core ideas and to compare the core ideas in mathematics curriculum of each country. I derived that the core ideas were approached and presented in curriculums of South Korea, The United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore as several perspectives; the main domains of mathematics contents which should be taught; the basis of the core principles between of mathematical contents; the focuses for teaching and learning in school mathematics. Finally, I discussed the further research direction on the contents of core ideas and the methods of presenting it to teach meaningfully the core mathematical contents to students who will live in the future.

Children's early mathematics education sets the tone for their later learning of mathematics. So the importance of early mathematics education has been emphasized day by day and there has been growing interest in it. The purpose of this study is to examine the possibility of including standards for kindergarten in mathematics curriculum and to select the specific content knowledge for designing mathematics curriculum focusing on continuity of kindergarten and first grade. To do this, continuity between kindergarten mathematics and the first grade mathematics were examined by investigating the five countries' mathematics curricula which include kindergarten level. Based on the results, the content standards of kindergarten mathematics were constituted in the categories of 'number and operation', 'geometry', 'measurement', 'pattern', and 'data and chance', following the some principles of selection. Finally, the implications for attainment of continuity between kindergarten and elementary mathematics were induced, containing the discussion of the methods for teaching and learning mathematics in the kindergarten level.

수학사는 수학적 사실이나 수학자에 대한 연대기적 나열만을 의미하는 것은 아니다. 수학사에서는 수학적 개념들, 정리들, 연구 방법의 발생, 축적, 그리고 발전에 대한 폭넓은 견해를 접할 수 있다. 특히, 수학사에서 접할 수 있는 수학 문제해결의 다양한 방법은 수학 교수-학습 과정에서 교사의 올바른 교수학적 선택을 위한 중요한 기초 자료가 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 그리스의 수학자 아르키메데스가 구의 부피를 구하기 위해 사용했던 공학적 문제해결 방법을 살펴보고, 공학적 방법의 활용에 관련된 수학적 기초를 살펴보고, 공학적 문제해결 방법을 중등학교 수학 영재교육에 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 모색할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate research trends of the articles in Math-Educational journals between 1998 and 2006 in a bid to discuss whether the articles evenly dealt with different fields and whether studies on elementary mathematics education were in line with the 7th national curricula. It's basically meant to determine some of the right directions for future research on elementary mathematics education. The articles included in Math-Educational journals during the selected period were analyzed to find out the theme, area, method and subjects of the studies and when the studies were conducted. After checking National Assembly Digital Library by inputting a keyword 'elementary mathematics', 235 articles were found, and a content analysis was carried out, and statistical data on percentage were obtained. The results of this study were as follows: First, there had been steady research efforts about elementary mathematics education, as 20 or 30 studies had been conducted on a yearly basis. Second, as for theme of research, the most common themes were instructional design and method(25.5%), and an analysis of curricula and textbook(15.3%) was the second most dominant theme. Third, regarding the area of study, the most widely investigated area was number and operation (30.0%), followed by character/expression(27.8%), figure (23.9%), regularity/function (8.9%), probability/statistics(5.6%), and measurement (3.9%). Fourth, concerning the method of research, didactical analysis(43.8%) was most prevalent, followed by quantitative research(29.8%), qualitative research(16.6%) and a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches(9.8%). Fifth, as to subjects, many of the studies(21.7%) investigated upper graders. In conclusion, it has to be accomplished the impartial researches for the whole area in order to develop elementary mathematics education and attain the objects of the 7th national curricula.

수학교과서는 수학 교수-학습의 매개체로서 그 변화에 대한 비교 연구는 수학 교육을 조명하는데 있어 의미있는 일이라 할 수 있다. 그러나 국가간의 수학 교과서를 비교 ${\cdot}$ 분석한 것은 여럿 있으나 우리나라 교육과정의 변화에 따른 비교 ${\cdot}$ 연구는 드물다. 이에 본 연구는 제 6, 7차 교육과정에서 실용수학의 편제 ${\cdot}$ 성격, 목표, 영역명의 차이점은 무엇이며, 내적체제 면의 유사점과 차이점 및 각 영역에서 학습 내용의 유사점과 차이점이 무엇인가에 대한 비교 ${\cdot}$ 분석을 통하여 우리나라 6. 7차 교육과정에 따른 실용수학 교과서의 문제점을 도출하고 좀 더 나은 교과서 개발에 기여하고자 하는데 그 목적이 있다.
