인지적으로 안내된 교수(CGI)는 학생들의 수학적 사고(특히, 비형식적 지식)의 발달; 그러한 발달에 영향을 미치는 교수; 교수 실제에 영향을 미치는 교사의 지식과 신념들; 교사의 지식, 신념들, 실제들이 학생들의 수학적 사고에 대한 이해에 의해 영향을 받는다는 점에 초점을 둔 통합된 연구 프로그램이다. 본 논문에서는 아동의 비형식적인 지식을 중시하는 최근의 연구들을 고찰하고, CGI를 위한 수업을 어떻게 조직하며, 그러한 교수법이 수업을 어떻게 진행할 것인지에 대한 구체적이고 명확한 지침을 제공하지 않으므로 CGI를 적용하는 교실들의 유사점을 살펴본다. 그리고, 마지막으로 최근의 연구들을 고찰함으로써 CGI의 효과를 알아본다.

One of the major roots of the value and power of mathematical knowledge is the belief on ‘the Pythagorian-Platonic divine mathematicity of the universe’ and the ‘pre-established harmony between mathematics and physics’. This kind of the nature of mathematical knowledge demands strongly the school mathematics to become a subject for humanity education going beyond the practical usefulness. Here, investigating the roots of the thought of mathematical education, we tried to clarify that the traditional educational ideal which has maintained the theoretical knowledge-centered mathematical education is the education of humanity, and investigate the way today's mathematical pedagogy should first turn to if it should realize this ideal.

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.

Teacher knowledge needed for teaching is bound to be revealed in teaching the subject matter in relation to the given instructional context. Given this, recent studies on mathematics teacher knowledge tend to analyze actual Mathematical Knowledge in Teaching [MKiT]. This study focused on the dimension of transformation and its related codes in Knowledge Quartet, which has been recognized as a MKiT framework, and analyzed a Korean teacher's transformation knowledge revealed in her elementary mathematics teaching. The analysis showed that the codes related to the dimension of transformation were useful in analyzing teacher knowledge in the Korean context. However, a few codes need to be revised or added for more suitability. On the basis of these results, this paper closes with implications for analyzing teacher knowledge in mathematics teaching.

Nam(2008a) suggested that the role of teacher for helping students to learn mathematical structures should be the manifestor of tacit knowledge. But there have been lack of researches on embodying the manifestation of tacit knowledge. This study embodies the manifestation of tacit knowledge by showing that exemplification is one way of manifestation of tacit knowledge in terms of goal, contents, and method. First, the goal of the manifestation of tacit knowledge through exemplification is helping students to learn mathematical structures. Second, the manifestation of tacit knowledge through exemplification intends to teach students mathematical structures in the tacit dimension by perceiving invariance in the midst of change. Third, the manifestation of tacit knowledge through exemplification intends to teach students mathematical structures in the tacit dimension by constructing explicit knowledge creatively, reflection on constructive activity and social interaction. In conclusion, exemplification could be seen one way of embodying the manifestation of tacit knowledge in terms of goal, contents, and method.

The aim of the study presented in this paper was to explore South Korean elementary teachers' knowledge regarding educational theory in mathematics. An independent t-test and ANOVA are applied to examine elementary teachers' knowledge regarding educational theory in mathematics. Findings of this study suggest that there is a negative correlation between the teachers' knowledge regarding educational theory in mathematics and their teaching experiences as well as the teacher certification level. However, there is a little affect of the teachers' gender and educational backgrounds on the teachers' knowledge regarding educational theory in mathematics. The results of this quantitative study may broaden our understanding of the South Korean elementary teachers' knowledge for teaching mathematics, which have a deep impact on their teaching practice.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the preservice elementary teachers' knowledge of division through open-ended problems focused on the following perspectives in understanding division : connectedness between procedural and conceptual knowledge as well as the knowledge of units. Results indicates that the preservice elementary teachers showed low level of understanding of division such as the making word problem including division of fractions and the identification of the units in division operation.

수학 학습에서 컴퓨터와 계산기의 활용은 시각화의 강화로부터 직관력과 사고력의 향상을 가져왔다. 컴퓨터 대수체계(Computer Algebra System)가 탑재된 수학 학습용 컴퓨터 프로그램과 계산기가 활발히 사용되고 있으며, 교수매체로서의 활용은 지식 정보전달 체계와 학습자의 지식 구성방법에 새로운 패러다임을 형성하였다. 특히 수학학습용 그래픽 계산기(Graphing Calculator)는 휴대형(Hand-held Technology)으로 학습공간의 이동(Mobil Education)이 가능하며, 수학학습 전용기라는데 의미를 둘 수 있다. Symbolic Graphing Calculator를 활용한 수업에서 학습자는 계산기를 가지고, 기호연산 실행 조작을 통해 자신의 사고과정을 표현하고, Symbolic Graphing Calculator는 실행 조작에 즉각적으로 과정과 결과를 제공하며, 다른 표상과 상호작용을 함으로써 학습자 스스로의 규제가 강화된 과정을 통해 지식을 구성하게 된다. 이때 교사는 지식 정보전달 체계인 대화형 실행매체(IMTs)를 작성하여 학습자의 지식 형성에 안내자의 역할을 하게 된다. 이번 워크샵에서는 CASIO fx 2.0을 활용한 교실 수업모형을 그래프 표상과 연계한 방정식의 풀이과정을 통해 알아본다.

This study investigated three pre-service teachers' mathematical problem solving among hand-in-write-ups and final projects for each subject. All participants' activities and computer explorations were observed and video taped. If it was possible, an open-ended individual interview was performed before, during, and after each exploration. The method of data collection was observation, interviewing, field notes, students' written assignments, computer works, and audio and videotapes of pre- service teachers' mathematical problem solving activities. At the beginning of the mathematical problem solving activities, all participants did not have strong procedural and conceptual knowledge of the graph, making a model by using data, and general concept of a sine function, but they built strong procedural and conceptual knowledge and connected them appropriately through mathematical problem solving activities by using the computer technology.

This paper analyzed the pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) presented in three novice teachers' mathematics instruction. PCK was analyzed in terms of the knowledge of mathematics content, the knowledge of students' understanding, and the knowledge of teaching methods. Teacher A executed a concept-oriented instruction with manipulative materials because she had difficulties in learning mathematics during her childhood. Teacher B attempted to implement an inquiry-centered instruction in the lesson of looking for the area of a trapezoid. Teacher C focused on the real-life connection to mathematics instruction. There were substantial differences among the teachers' PCK revealed in mathematics teaching, depending on their instructional goals. The detailed analyses of three teachers' teaching in terms of their PCK will give rise to the issues and suggestions of professional development for beginning elementary school teachers in mathematics teaching.
