최근 학교 수학교육에서는 창의성 교육을 강조하고 있으며, 창의성을 향상시킬 수 있는 프로그램에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 창의성을 향상시키기 위해서는 기계적인 계산에 의해서 한 가지 답을 구하는 학습보다는 탐구하고, 추측하고, 논리적으로 추론하고, 다양한 문제해결 전략을 구사할 수 있는 능력을 키우는 프로그램이 필요하다. 또, 이러한 프로그램이 학생들에게 활동을 통해 다양한 경험을 제공할 수 있다면 더욱 효과적일 것이다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 다양한 창의성 프로그램을 소개하였고, 창의성을 평가하는 방법을 소개하였다.

It arises that teachers' professional competence should be considered not only with a cognitive perspective but also with a situative perspective. In this study, we considered mathematics teacher noticing as situational professional competencies of a mathematics teacher, and explored how mathematics teachers noticing on children's development of reasoning about variability in a video club has changed with the situative perspective. Findings illustrate that the 'interpreting' component among the three components of noticing-attending, interpreting, and deciding how to respond-was critically decisive for the change of the participant teachers' noticing. We also discussed how the video club intervention(the framework of children's development of reasoning about variability) can support the development of teacher noticing as a professional competence. This study has implications on the design of a video club to improve mathematics teacher noticing.

Mathematical process is an issue in current mathematics education. In this paper discuss how to assess the mathematical process using essay type questions. For this we first suggest the concept of Mathematical Process Oriented Question which is an essay type question and possible to assess mathematical processes, that is, the mathematical communication, reasoning, and problem solving as well as mathematics knowledge. And we develop a framework for developing the mathematical process oriented question and rubric, examples of assessment standards and those questions containing rubric for assessing mathematical processes. The results of this paper can serve as basic data and examples for follow up research about mathematical process assessment.

There are many studies on 'how' students solve mathematical problems, but few of them sufficiently explained 'why' they have to solve the problems in their own different ways. As quantitative reasoning is the basis for algebraic reasoning, to scrutinize a student's way of dealing with quantities in a problem situation is critical for understanding why the student has to solve it in such a way. From our teaching experiments with two ninth-grade students, we found that emergences of a certain level of covariational reasoning were highly consistent across different types of problems within each participating student. They conceived the given problem situations at different levels of covariation and constructed their own quantity-structures. It led them to solve the problems with the resources accessible to their structures only, and never reconciled with the other's solving strategies even after having reflection and discussion on their solutions. It indicates that their own structure of quantities constrained the whole process of problem solving and they could not discard the structures. Based on the results, we argue that teachers, in order to provide practical supports for students' problem solving, need to focus on the students' way of covariational reasoning of problem situations.

There are two approach methods widely in statistical inferences. First is sampling theory methods and the other is Bayesian methods. In this paper, we will introduce the most basic differences of the two approach methods. Especially, we investigate and introduce the historical origin of Bayesian methods in Statistical inferences which is currently used. Also, we introduce the some characteristics of sampling theory method and Bayesian methods.

인간의 추론 능력이란 문제에 주어진 조건을 보고 문제 해결에 필요한 것이 무엇인지를 논리적으로 생각해 보는 것으로 문제 상황 속에서 일정한 규칙이나 성질을 발견하고 이를 수학적인 방법으로 법칙을 찾아내거나 해결하는 능력을 말한다. 이러한 인간인지 능력과 유사한 인공지능 시스템을 개발하는데 있어서 핵심적 도전은 비구조적 데이터(unstructured data)로부터 그 개체들(object)과 그들간의 관계(relation)에 대해 추론하는 능력을 부여하는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 지금까지 딥러닝(deep learning) 방법은 구조화 되지 않은 데이터로부터 문제를 해결하는 엄청난 진보를 가져왔지만, 명시적으로 개체간의 관계를 고려하지 않고 이를 수행해왔다. 최근 발표된 구조화되지 않은 데이터로부터 복잡한 관계 추론을 수행하는 심층신경망(deep neural networks)은 관계추론(relational reasoning)의 시도를 이해하는데 기대할 만한 접근법을 보여주고 있다. 그 첫 번째는 관계추론을 위한 간단한 신경망 모듈(A simple neural network module for relational reasoning) 인 RN(Relation Networks)이고, 두 번째는 시각적 관찰을 기반으로 실제대상의 미래 상태를 예측하는 범용 목적의 VIN(Visual Interaction Networks)이다. 관계 추론을 수행하는 이들 심층신경망(deep neural networks)은 세상을 객체(objects)와 그들의 관계(their relations)라는 체계로 분해하고, 신경망(neural networks)이 피상적으로는 매우 달라 보이지만 근본적으로는 공통관계를 갖는 장면들에 대하여 객체와 관계라는 새로운 결합(combinations)을 일반화할 수 있는 강력한 추론 능력(powerful ability to reason)을 보유할 수 있다는 것을 보여주고 있다. 본 논문에서는 관계 추론을 수행하는 심층신경망(deep neural networks) 중에서 Sort-of-CLEVR 데이터 셋(dataset)을 사용하여 RN(Relation Networks)의 성능을 재현 및 관찰해 보았으며, 더 나아가 파라미터(parameters) 튜닝을 통하여 RN(Relation Networks) 모델의 성능 개선방법을 제시하여 보았다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate middle school students' understanding and development of function graphs. We collected the data from the teaching experiment with two middle school students who had not yet received instruction on linear function in school. The students participated in a 15-day teaching experiment(Steffe, & Thompson, 2000). Each teaching episode lasted one or two hours. The students initially focused on numerical values rather than the overall relationship between the variables in functional situations. This study described meaning, role of and students' responses for the given tasks, which revealed the students' understanding and development of function graphs. Especially we analyzed students' responses based on their methods to solve the tasks, reasoning that derived from those methods, and their solutions. The results indicate that their continuous reasoning played a significant role in their understanding of function graphs.

It takes much of times and efforts for mathematical knowledge to be regarded as truth. Mathematical knowledge has been added, and modified, and even proved to be false. Mathematical knowledge consists of mathematical languages, statements, reasonings, questions, metamathematical views. These elements have been changed constantly by investigations and refutations of mathematicians, by modification of proofs considering the refutations, by introduction of new concepts, by additions of questions about new concepts, by efforts to get answers to new questions, by attempts to apply previous studies to the present, constantly. This study introduces the change of mathematical knowledge instituted by filcher, and presents examples of the change.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate high school students' learning characteristics which revealed in their learning process of limit using GeoGebra. And we are going to analyze effects of teaching of limit using GeoGebra to high school students' interesting and attitudes for mathematics learning. To do this, we selected three high school students as participants and ask them performing limit learning using GeoGebra. We recorded their problem solving process. Through analyzing their problem solving process relate to their solution, we found the followings: First, students did not logically approach based on mathematical properties or given materials, rather showing tendency decide with self-conscious and intuition. Second, it is possible that former reasoning strategies disturb following reasoning in the process of high school students' mathematics learning. Third, learning process of limit using GeoGebra help high school students to identify and correct their errors relate to limit learning. Forth, learning process of limit using GeoGebra positively effects to high school students' interesting and attitudes for mathematics learning.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the meaning and roles of rhymes in oriental mathematics. To do this, we consider the rhymes in traditional chinese, korean, indian, arabian mathematical books and the mathematical knowledge which they implicate. And we discuss the reasons for which they were often used and the roles which they played. In addition, we suggest how to use them in teaching mathematics.
