As teachers need to understand how to select and use technology in mathematics education, analysis on history, characteristics, and effects of various technology used in school mathematics will facilitate effective use of technology. This thesis aims to analyze through literary studies the history, characteristics, and effects of using spreadsheets Excel, dynamic geometry softwares GSP, Cabri and CAS, the most commonly used technology in teaching and learning mathematics in Korea. And we also study the current trends on using technology in mathematics education in Korea by investigating research trend, secondary mathematics curriculums past and present in Korea, mathematics textbooks, and classroom environments.

The problem of mathematical rigor is that of giving an objective definition of a rigorous proof. But standards of rigor have changed in mathematics and the notion of proof is not absolute. There are different versions of proof or rigor, depending on time, place, and other things. In this paper we will briefly trace that evolution.

본 연구는 첫째로는 수학교육에서 패턴이 강조되는 이론적 근거를 찾고자 역사적 맥락에서 수학의 성격변화를 탐색하였다. 수학의 성격 변화를 통하여 수학은 수의 탐구, 기하의 탐구, 운동ㆍ변화ㆍ공간의 탐구, 수학 연구의 도구에 대한 탐구로 그 영역을 점차 확대하여 왔으며, '수학은 패턴의 과학이다'라는 정의는 수학이 폭넓어짐에 따라 수학이 무엇인가에 대한 수학의 본성에 접근하는 논의라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 수학에 대한 새로운 관점은 수학교육의 새로운 방향 모색에 시사하는 바를 살펴보고, 특히 수학교실의 변화에 따른 패턴의 강조를 살펴보았다. 둘째로는 수학적 패턴을 밝힘과 동시에 수학 교육에서 수학적 패턴 분석의 틀을 마련하고자 수학적 패턴의 유형화를 시도하였다. 패턴의 속성에 따른 유형화와 패턴의 생성 방식에 따른 유형화를 통하여 수학적 패턴의 유형을 마련하였다. 초등학교 수학에서 다루어지는 패턴은 어떠한 것인가를 현행 4학년 수학교과서 및 익힘책에 제한하여 유형화한 틀로서 조사 분석하였다. 셋째로는 수학적 패턴에 관한 지도 방안의 모색으로서, 지도의 기본 방향을 설정하고 수학적 패턴에 관한 교수 전략을 마련하였다. 교수전략은 크게 패턴에서의 규칙 찾기, 패턴을 변형ㆍ확장하기, 자신의 새로운 패턴 만들기, 패턴을 수학적으로 설명하기로 나누고, 각각에 3-4개의 세부 전략과 세부 전략에 따른 예를 제시하였다.

Mathematization is cognitive process of empirical phenomena into mathematics. The article shows that mathematization is an fundamental element in the process of westernization and the difference between the East and tile West is due to the existence of mathematics.

This Paper introduces a historical background of mathematical logic. Logic and mathematics were not developed dependently until the mid of the nineteenth century, when two streams of logic and mathematics came to form a river so that brought forth synergy effects. Since the mid-nineteenth century mathematization of logic were proceeded while attempts to reduce mathematics to logic were made. Against this background $G{\ddot{o}}del's$ proof shows the limitation of formalism by proving that there are true arithmetical propositions that are not provable.

By showing that several evidences from the history of mathematics do not follows the naturalness emerging in human being, the teaming principles of history of mathematics oriented teaming should be replaced both theoretically and practically by the principle of teaming from constructivism.

This study is the field of mathematics education on the assumption that they can extend outside the classroom. Recent mathematics education is increasing the importance of field experience and various activities based on real-life math education. Thus, it is necessary to consider this situation in pre-service teacher's education. The purpose of this study is to apply the 'Mathematics Field Trips Activities' in the pre-mathematics teacher education. So the specific case of 'Mathematics Field Trips Activities' was analyzed. Mathematics teachers conducted preliminary exploration activities on the historical cultural property which were effective in the following four aspects. First, cognitive effects and second, definitive effect. Third, cultural-mathematical effect. Fourth, the effect on improving math class. Finally they were summarized and divided into classes target content knowledge and teaching knowledge both sides. As a result, the 'Mathematics Field Trips Activities' were found to have significant effects on pre-service math teacher. Finally, ongoing research is needed to settle into a new teaching and learning methods.
