The purpose of this study is to identify possibility of a mathematical problem posing ability by presenting problem posing tasks with different degrees of structure according to the study of Stoyanova and Ellerton(1996). Also, the results of this study suggest the direction of gifted elementary mathematics education to increase mathematical creativity. The research results showed that mathematical problem posing ability is likely to be a factor in identification of gifted students, and suggested directions for problem posing activities in education for mathematically gifted by investigating the characteristics of original problems. Although there are many criteria that distinguish between gifted and ordinary students, it is most desirable to utilize the measurement of fluency through the well-structured problem posing tasks in terms of efficiency, which is consistent with the findings of Jo Seokhee et al. (2007). It is possible to obtain fairly good reliability and validity in the measurement of fluency. On the other hand, the fact that the problem with depth of solving steps of 3 or more is likely to be a unique problem suggests that students should be encouraged to create multi-steps problems when teaching creative problem posing activities for the gifted. This implies that using multi-steps problems is an alternative method to identify gifted elementary students.

Negative numbers have been one of the most difficult mathematical concepts, and it was only 200 years ago that they were recognized as a real object of mathematics by mathematicians. It was because it took more than 1500 years for human beings to overcome the quantitative notion of numbers and recognize the formality in negative numbers. Understanding negative numbers as formal ones resulted from the Copernican conversion in mathematical way of thinking. we first investigated the historic and the genetic process of the concept of negative numbers. Second, we analyzed the conceptual fields of negative numbers in the aspect of the additive and multiplicative structure. Third, we inquired into the levels of thinking on the concept of negative numbers on the basis of the historical and the psychological analysis in order to understand the formal concept of negative numbers. Fourth, we analyzed Korean mathematics textbooks on the basis of the thinking levels of the concept of negative numbers. Fifth, we investigated and analysed the levels of students' understanding of the concept of negative numbers. Sixth, we analyzed the symbolizing process in the development of mathematical concept. Futhermore, we tried to show a concrete way to teach the formality of the negative numbers concepts on the basis of such theoretical analyses.

소셜 네트워크를 통해 수집된 수많은 데이터들은 여러 분야에 중요한 자료로 활용되고 있으며, 소셜 네트워크상의 데이터들이 이용되면서 개인정보가 노출되는 프라이버시 문제가 발생하고 있다. 프라이버시 문제를 해결하기 위한 실용적인 방안으로 k-익명성, l-다양성 등의 개념과 이를 토대로 한 데이터 익명화 방법이 제안되어 있다. 데이터의 익명화에서는 원본데이터의 왜곡을 최소화하면서 프라이버시 보호를 극대화하는 것이 목적이다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 익명화 비용을 측정하기 위한 합리적인 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 소셜 네트워크 그래프의 익명화 알고리즘 수행을 위해 필수적 요소인 익명화 비용을 합리적이고 실용적으로 측정하는 방법을 제안한다.

본 연구는 학습 구조차트 구성을 통하여 고등학교 수학의 학습내용을 구조적 ${\cdot}$ 체계적으로 조직화시켜 학생들로 하여금 학습 내용의 효과적인 이해와 상호 관련성을 촉진시키고 학습 내용의 조직화 및 구조화 활동이 고등학생들의 학업에 미치는 영향을 조사하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구에 따르면 수학 학업성취도가 상인 학생은 문제풀이시 머릿속에서 차트를 그리게 되고 여러 가지 개념을 나열하여 조작할 수 있는 능력이 생겼으며 문제 유형에 맞춘 학습 보다는 어떤 개념들이 문제풀이에 사용되었으며 이러한 개념들이 어떻게 나열되는지에 대한 학습으로 관심이 전환되었다. 수학학업 성취도가 하인 학생들은 학습 구조차트의 구성에만 만족하는 편이며 선행지식의 부족으로 복합적인 개념의 문제풀이에 있어서는 여전히 어려움을 경험하고 있었다. 성적이 낮은 학생일수록 개념에 대한 구조화와 조직화에 대한 어려움이 많은 것으로 보여 이들 학생들에 대한 장기적인 연구가 필요하다고 본다.

The purpose of this study is to find a method to improve geometry instruction. For this purpose, I have investigated aims and problems of geometry education. I also reviewed related literature about discovery methods as well as verification. Through this review, “Mathematising teaching and learning methods” by Freudenthal is Presented as an alternative to geometry instruction. I investigated the capability of dynamic software for realization of this method. The result of this investigation is that dynamic software is a powerful tool in realizing this method. At last, I present one example of mathematic activity using dynamic software that can be used by school teachers.

Composition of functions are important tool for producing associativity in mathematical model. However it is not properly treated in dealing together with the other operation, the addition +, of functions defined on real numbers. In this note, we will study mathematization of the construction of nearring axiom from relationships between the addition + and the composition $\circ$ of functions, comparing with those between the addition + and the multiplication of functions. Furthermore, we will suggest some helpful teaching methods of these mathematization in the secondary school mathematics.

컴퓨터의 급속한 보급으로 시각화는 수학 교육자사이의 논의에 자주 등장하는 소재가 되었다. 우리는 다양한 소프트웨어를 사용하여 준비한 수업에 학생들로 임하게는 하지만 거의 그들의 사고 발달과정에는 관심을 갖지 못하고 있다. 이 논문은 구성주의(Constructivism)와 정보처리체계(Information-Processing System)에 입각하여 수학의 시각화를 생각해보고 어떻게 시각화 환경을 준비해야하는지 논해보고자 하였다. 구성주의의 시각화에서는 반영적 추상(reflective abstraction), 반복되는 경험(repeated experience), 그리고 지식 위계성이 학습의 기능 체계를 이루므로 발견적 학습을 통해 학생 스스로 의미를 구성할 수 있도록 Thomas (1992)의 세 가지 제안을 이용하여 수업을 준비할 수 있다. 정보처리체계에서는 지식은 서술적인 것과 과정적인 것으로 나뉘어지고, 시각적 표상을 수록하고 삭제하는 과정과 조작 가능한(manipulative) 환경과의 상호작용으로 기호적 시각으로 표상을 변화하는 과정을 통해 개념을 습득하게된다. 시각화는 스키마와 개념상을 통해서 일어난다. 그래프, 애니메이션, 그리고 다른 시각적 표상 등은 이 개념상에 직접적 효과를 주므로 매우 중요하다. 이런 논란을 바탕으로 교사는 반영적 추상화를 위해 시간을 충분히 제공해야하고, 비슷한 문제를 가지고 여러번 시도를 할 수 있게 하며, 학생을 잘 관찰하여 그들의 지식 위계성을 이해하고 방향을 제시하며, 논리적이고 잘 연결된 시각적 표상을 제공하고, 상징적 사관으로 확장할 수 있게 조작할 수 있는 환경에서 시각화에 대해 학생과 많은 대화를 하도록 수업을 준비해야한다. 그한 예로 타원을 가르치기 위해 몇 가지 테크놀로지를 활용한 시각화 환경을 구성해보았다.ates of bisected bovine embryos by micromanipulator and micropipett were 29.2% and 19.1%, respectively. The rates of non-bisection embryos(46.7%) were significantly higher than those of bisection embryos. 2. The in vitro developmental rates of bisected bovine embryos by micromanipulator, micropipett and pipetting method were 32.4%, 19.4% and 25.6%, respectively.3. The in vitro developmental rates of with and without-zona pellucida of bisected bovine embryos by raicromanipulator were 30.8% and 25.0%, respectively.

Cultivating mathematical creativity is one of the aims in the recently revised mathematics curricular. However, there have been lack of researches on how to nurture mathematical creativity for ordinary students. Perspective of Realistic Mathematics Education(RME), which pursues education of creative person as the ultimate goal of mathematics education, could be useful for developing principles and methods for cultivating mathematical creativity. This study reanalyzes RME from the points of view in mathematical creativity education. Major findings are followed. First, students should have opportunities for mathematical creation through mathematization, while seeking and creating certainty. Second, it is vital to begin with realistic contexts to guarantee mathematical creation by students, in which students can imagine or think. Third, students can create mathematics in realistic contexts by modelling. Fourth, students create the meaning of 'model of(MO)', which models the given context, the meaning of 'model for(MF)', which models formal mathematics. Then, students create MOs and MFs that are equivalent to the intial MO and MF given by textbook or teacher. Flexibility, fluency, and novelty could be employed to evaluate the MOs and the MFs created by students. Fifth, cultivation of mathematical creativity can be supported from development of local instructional theories by thought experiment, its application, and reflection. In conclusion, to employ the education model of cultivating mathematical creativity by RME drawn in this study could be reasonable when design mathematics lessons as well as mathematics curriculum to include mathematical creativity as one of goals.
