This research is how students and teacher apprehend mathematics education, pointing out problem areas as a basis on how to improve students understanding of mathematics through improved guidance by teachers in the future. 1107 high school students and 105 teachers from around Daejeon and Choongnam province were surveyed and the results were as follows. 1. 77 %( 852) of students viewed the "application of problem solving methods" as understanding mathematic problems. 2. Replies to the question on understanding the study of mathematics resulted in 85.7% of teachers saying "it is the understanding of the basic concept to which you solve the problems" 3. For questions relating to the large difference in-class mathematics achievements and mock University entrance exam achievements, students' response that "for in-class tests you only have to learn problems with similar form but the mock tests are not like that" pointed out the problem in the area of mathematics education. 4. For future mathematic education teachers will have to "explain better and more completely the basic principles and concepts before solving problems" , and make an effort to stimulate students by "creating a more fun atmosphere" . There will also be the need to prevent as much as possible, the use of "formula or memory driven problems" and encourage students to initiate problem solving for themselves.; and encourage students to initiate problem solving for themselves.

A new teaching-learning method is needed to improve creative problem-solving ability of the gifted students at mathematics. In response to this demand, I applied mentor-project studying to the mathematically gifted class students of Chungnam Science High School. The purpose of this monograph is to analyze in what situations they demonstrated mathematical creativity and whether the interactions among the gifted in the process of studying were of great help toward improving creativity. The effectiveness of mentor-project studying was especially verified by the analysis of creative problem-solving test results.

Along with the continual debate relating to the use of technology, especially since LOGO in 1980, technology has always been the issue to the society of mathematics education about what is the role of technology in teaching and learning, how it can facilitate for the better understanding of learners, especially what we can do more with it comparing to the traditional teaching and learning environments. Here I propose a way of using technology[GSP] for creative exploration, which makes it possible to extend our knowledge that leads to new discovery.

현대사회는 지식정보의 사회로서 이러한 사회에서는 지식을 단순히 암기하는 것보다 주어진 지식과 정보를 이용하여 새로운 지적 가치를 창출할 수 있는 자율적이고 창의적인 인재가 필요하다. 창의성 신장의 측면에서 볼 때, 수학은 문제 해결의 다양성, 사고의 유연성을 길러주므로 매우 중요한 과목이다. 하지만 많은 학생들이 수학의 가치와 필요성을 인식하지 못하고 흥미를 잃어가고 있다. 이에 자발적인 학습을 유도할 수 있는 PBL학습을 도입하고자 한다. 그리고 컴퓨터 프로그래밍은 수학 학습에서 학습자의 알고리즘적 사고력을 향상시킨다. 따라서 본 연구자는 수학 흥미도를 향상시키기 위해 스크래치를 활용한 PBL기반의 수학 학습 컨텐츠 개발을 제안한다.

삼각비 단원에 대한 학습 결손은 나아가 공통수학 삼각함수 단원에 대한 선수학습 결손으로써 학습의욕의 상실, 자기 열등감, 삼각함수 단원에 대한 지속적인 학습결손의 누적으로 이어진다. 실제로 고등학교 1학년 학생들의 삼각함수를 학습할 때 삼각비에 대한 기초가 부족한 것에 영향을 받아 지적인 측면은 물론이고 정의적 측면에서도 기초가 부족하다는 부정적 자아개념을 가지고 출발하게 되어 이후 학습에 많은 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 중학교 9-나의 삼각비 단원과 고등학교 공통수학의 삼각함수 단원에 대한 중 ${\cdot}$ 고등학교 교사 및 학생들의 인식과 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 실태를 알아보고, 수학의 계통성을 고려하여 올바른 교육과정을 모색하는데 그 목적이 있다.

새로이 열리고 있는 정보화시대에 부응하기 위해 교육계에서는 컴퓨터를 교육매체를 활용한 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습방법에 대한 연구를 활발히 전개해 나가고 있다. 최근에는 인터넷을 활용하여 좀더 효과적인 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 방법의 개선에 대해 연구하는 움직임들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이에 중학교 수학과를 중심으로 하여 인터넷 상의 학습자료들을 검색하고 이를 먼저 홈페이지별로 분류하여 그에 따른 내용들을 분석하고, 반대로 항목별로 홈페이지를 중학교 교과서 내적인 내용과 외적인 내용들로 분류하고 그에 대한 분석을 하여 봄으로써 현재 인터넷 상의 학습자료들을 알아보아 향후 인터넷을 활용하여 중학교 수학의 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 방법을 개선하는 연구 및 인터넷 상에 새로운 자료를 올리는 사람들에게 도움이 되도록 하고자 한다. 또한 간단하나마 인터넷을 활용하는 수업에 대해서도 기술하여 인터넷 상의 학습자료를 활용하는 방안을 모색하여 보고자 한다.

It is to design diverse teaching methods to construct competitive knowledge-based society and to design teaching methods suitable to Korean conditions. The study reviewed Ausubel's meaningful learning especially subsumption theory as a plan to make students understand math and receive it meaningfully through explanatory class. Analyzing meaning and conditions of Ausubel's meaningful learning can make utility of significant explanatory learning in education of mathematics easier.

고등학교 수학과 교육과정에서의 ‘확률과 통계'단원은 실제로 자료의 수집과 요약을 통하여 자료 분석방법을 배우고 사회와 자연현상을 인식하고 추론하는 능력을 기르는데 목표를 두고 있다. 추상적인 수학내용을 직접 시도하거나 학생들이 실제적인 자료를 수집하고 직접 자료를 해석하고 추론해 보는 경험과정은 수학실험과 시뮬레이션이라는 컴퓨터 학습을 통해 가능하고 개념학습의 전 단계에서 보다 구성적이고 탐구적인 활동을 강화할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 ‘확률과 통계'의 교수-학습과정에서 수학적 시뮬레이션을 활용한 웹 기반 학습모형을 제시하여 학습자들에게 수학적 내용과 관련된 구체적 매체를 조작하는 컴퓨터 실험 활동을 통하여 수학에서의 원리발견과 통계적 추론을 경험하고 유도할 수 있는 탐구적 학습 환경을 조성해 보고자 한다.

This study investigated relationships between academic stress and mathematics learning motivation focusing on the mediating effect of academic motivation types. It also tested differential structural relationship among the variables in the high vs. low academic achievement level groups and the boys vs. girls of middle schools. The participants were 952 second graders from five middle schools. Student scores from the standardized tests that were developed to assess the students' academic stress, mathematics learning motivation, and three types of motivation (amotivation, controlled motivation, and autonomous motivation) were used in this study. The results demonstrate that there were significant differences in the relationship patterns of the research variables. Correlation analysis provided evidences that academic stress was negatively related with mathematics learning motivation and autonomous motivation but positively related with amotivation and controlled motivation. Also, mathematics learning motivation was negatively related with amotivation and controlled motivation but positively related with autonomous motivation. Structural equation modelling analysis provided the evidence that the full mediation model was a significant, in that the students' types of academic motivation mediated the effect of academic stress on mathematics learning motivation. Multiple group analysis revealed that there were group differences in the path coefficients of the structural model. But the academic stress showed negative influence on the mathematics learning motivation via amotivation and autonomous motivation in all groups.

This article tried to review the meaning and implication of six stages theory of learning mathematics suggested by Zoltan Dienes in "Building up Mathematics" in 1971. It was not much concretely known to Korean mathematics education society. In particular, there is no mathematical example which could cover all the stages to know what the theory tells. So this article focused on the example which Dienes developed for learning integers in 2000 to dig the theory. As a result, some critical aspects and problems of six stages theory were found. And finally educational implication was described.
