What an individual values and regards as important has a significant impact on his or her learning. Classroom instruction would be even more effective if what the teacher regards as important in his or her pedagogical practice are aligned with what students regard as important too. Given this background, this study sought to find out what Korean students valued about mathematics and mathematics learning using a questionnaire developed by Seah (2005). The participants were 409 students from Grade 6 and 407 students from Grade 9 in Korea. The results of this study showed that students put the biggest emphasis on ideological aspects of mathematics, specifically rationalism, among mathematical values. The students also valued product, computation, process, exposition, and recalling among values related to the learning of mathematics. A comparative analysis between the two groups of students showed that sixth graders tended to think more positively with regards to each value than ninth graders. On the basis of these results, this paper raises some issues about students' values in mathematics learning. It also suggests that teachers need to consider what students value and regard as important in their mathematics learning to bring about even more effective instruction.

학교에서 가르치는 것과 학교 밖에서 실행되고 있는 것과는 서로 연결성을 유지하면서 통합을 이루어야 된다고 볼 때, 교과서 위주의 형식화되고 구조화된 내용만으로 이루어지는 제한된 학습활동은 수학과 교육과정에서 요구하는 수준의 문제해결을 기대하기가 어렵다. 본고에서는 학생들의 수학적 경험과 관련된 실생활 중심의 과제(Project)를 공동으로 해결하는 과정에서 학생 개개인이 자신의 지적 능력에 따른 역할을 가치 있게 수행함으로써 문제 해결력을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다.

In this paper, we investigate several values of the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art on mathematics educational viewpoint. We study them with four points of view: mathematical approach through problems of real life, algorithmization of concept and type, significance of affective domain and application of arithmetic. The result shows that the Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art have great meaning of today's Korean mathematics education and possibility of application.

수학교육에서 학생들이 학습을 통하여 습득하여할 중요한 주제는 수학 지식과 수학을 다루는 인지적 조작 기술일 것이다. 특히 수학지식과 지식의 활용은 문제해결을 통한 학습에서 의미 있게 학생에게 나타나며 이를 통하여 수학 학습 동기를 강화하고 수학의 가치를 느끼게 한다는 점에서 중요한 의의를 갖는다. 대학수준의 수학교육과정에서도 문제해결은 중요한 수학교육의 중심 수단으로서 목적으로서 선언되어 있지만 실제 수업에서 잘 다루고 있지 못하다. 문제해결 지도에 대한 접근 방식으로 1950년대의 문제해결전략을 다룬 Polya, 1990년대의 메타인지적 접근을 강조한 Schoenfeld 및 최근의 여러 연구자들의 활발한 연구가 이어지고 있다. 본 논문에서 대학 수준의 문제해결 수업의 접근 방법을 소개함으로 문제해결 수업을 구현할 수 있는 지식을 제공한다. 특히 Schoenfeld의 문제해결 수업 모델은 수학 교육의 교실 수업으로의 구현 측면에서 갖는 다양한 함의를 제시한다.

Studying functions is the fundamental that makes people understand complicate social events by using mathematical symbol system. But there are not enough program design and Teaching-learning strategy for mathematical-gifted student. So this research aim to design education program and teaching-learning strategy in functions area for mathematical-gifted student. 1 use real life-related problems to make students develop their problem-solving skill. And in this research I encourage students to study functions by grouping, discussion and presentation for self-directed teaming.

교사 중심 수업과 획일적인 평균 교육으로 인해, 창의적인 사고와 탐구활동이 학습과정에서 소홀히 취급되면서, 문제를 인식하고 해결할 수 있는 기회를 학생들에게 제공하지 못하였다. 또한 이러한 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습의 불균형은 학생들에게 진정한 수학의 가치를 경험할 수 없게 만들고 있다. 본고는 이러한 교실수업을 개선하기 위해 (1) 수준별 교수 ${\cdot}$ 학습 자료를 개발하고, (2) 수준별 협동학습에 적용하여 (3) 문제해결 능력에 미치는 영향을 고찰해 보고자 한다. 수준별 협동학습은 학생들의 능력에 따른 맞춤수업과 그들의 자기표현 욕구 및 공동체에 대한 소속감을 증진시킴으로써, 학습 부진의 누적을 예방하고 협동하는 사회 교육실현에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

This study is a case study of STEAM education. We have developed teaching and learning materials, suggested teaching method, and analysed the result for exploring the potential and effect of STEAM. The content of this study is based on the history of mathematics. Science (S) is related to the 24 divisions of the year, the height of the sun, the movement of heavenly bodies. Technology (T) is related to the exploration with graphic calculators. Engineering (E) is related to design sundial and research on the design principles. Art (A) is related to literature review about mathematical history, the understanding of the value of the mathematics. Mathematics (M) is related to the trigonometric functions. We have considered that Project-Based Learning is proper teaching and learning for STEAM education, we have designed the STEAM PBL and analysed the results focused on the developing integrative knowledge, mathematical attitude including mathematical value, the competencies of 21 century. The result of this study is as follows. We find that STEAM education activates students' collaboration, communication skills and improves representation and critical thinking skills. Also STEAM education makes positive changes of students' mathematical attitudes including the values of the mathematics.

Mathematics and science courses have a deep connectednessGnterrelationship). This research analysis their connectedness focused mathematics courses. Textbooks which were used in seventh education process were used in this analysis and the connectedness was further analyzed. From this analysis, three norms study various cases where mathematics courses affect science courses. The three norms are defined by order of curriculum of mathematics and natural science courses that have interrelationship. Lastly, a method to organize to connect mathematics and natural science course is discussed in detail in two aspects. Thorough this research, improvement in study achievement ability is expected by positive effects of mathematics courses to science courses.

수학 교사의 지식은 교과내용 지식, 일반 교육학 지식, 교육학 내용 지식, 교육과정 지식, 학습자에 대한 지식, 교육적 내용에 관한 지식, 수학 교육 목표, 목적, 가치에 대한 지식으로 분류될 수 있다. 지금까지 이러한 수학 교사에 대한 지식 종류에 대한 학문적 연구는 뚜렷하게 체계적으로 연구되어지지 못하고 주로 저학년 학생 및 학습자 위주로 산발적인 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 수학교사가 지녀야할 지식은 수학 학습자인 학생들을 어떻게 효과적으로 가르치느냐에 가장 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것이므로 이에 따른 구체적인 조사 연구가 필요할 뿐만 아니라 교사교육 프로그램에 반영되어 효과적으로 능력있는 교사를 양성할 수 있도록 하여야겠다.

This study is intended to investigate contents related to parents' perception and satisfaction level of school mathematics curriculum. Based on the results, this study intended to deduce implications for mathematics education in schools, child education, and parent education. According to the result of the survey, the more positively the parents perceived the value of the mathematics learning, the more positively the child perceived, and the higher the parent's participation rate in mathematics-related education was. In terms of perception of teaching and learning activities, it showed that the willingness to participate in educational programs was lower for the parents of middle and high school students than the parents of elementary school students and the parents of elementary school students also showed higher satisfaction level of school mathematics curriculum. parents have perceived the necessity of teaching and mathematics education to develop artificial intelligence or data analysis skills. It was also found that the parents of middle and high school students' participation experience in education had an effect on the satisfaction level of their children's math teacher's class preparedness. Parents perceived positively to how pragmatic mathematics curriculum can be and provided answers to what they wish in specific mathematics classes in learning methods and future mathematics learning. As this is for educational experts to consider much in-depth in the future, this study suggested the need for diverse parents' education related to mathematics including the expansion of mathematics education with parents' participation, the creation of a mathematics learning environment for future mathematics learning.
