한 가지 문제에 대한 다양한 풀이 방법을 탐색하는 것은 수학적 대상의 성질을 발명, 일반화하는 것 뿐만 아니라, 학생들의 지적인 유창성 및 유연성 계발, 수학에 대한 심미적 가치의 함양을 위한 의미 있는 교수학적 경험을 제공할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서는 고등학교 '미분과 적분'에 제시된 사인의 덧셈정리에 대한 다양한 증명 방법을 제시하고, 이를 분석하여 수학교수학적으로 의미로운 시사점을 도출하였다. 이를 통해, 사인의 덧셈정리에 대한 새로운 증명 방법의 탐색, 사인의 덧셈정리의 수학교수학적 활용의 다양한 가능성을 모색할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공할 것이며, 제시된 증명 방법들은 '미분과 적분'의 지도에서 심화학습 자료로도 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to explore in detail $5^{th}$ grade students' understanding on the big ideas related to addition of fraction with different denominators: fixed whole unit, necessity of common measure, and recursive partitioning connected to algorithms. We conducted teaching experiments on 15 fifth grade students who had learned about addition of fractions with different denominators using the current textbook. Most students approached to the big ideas related to addition of fractions in a procedural way. However, some students were able to conceptually understand the interpretations and algorithms of fraction addition by quantitatively thinking about the context and focusing on the structures of units. Building on these results, this study is expected to suggest specific implications on instruction methods for addition of fractions with different denominators.

The purpose of this study was to get reflections on teaching numbers and operations for special education from analyzing lessons for counting, addition and subtraction of natural number with counting board for students with autism. In order to attain these purposes, this study analyzed the lessons for counting, addition and subtraction of natural number to students with autism in 4th and 6th graders in special class at regular elementary school using counting board for one hour per week for 30 weeks. According to the analysis, counting board that reveals the structure of numbers becomes an effective mathematical materials, and using the counting strategy and computation strategy can be an effective method of teaching, and it is possible to teach mathematical communication to students with autism. From this result, this study presented suggestions for teaching counting, addition and subtraction for students with disabilities.

The addition and subtraction relationship and the multiplication and division relationship are explicitly dealt with in second and third grade mathematics textbooks. However, these relationships are not discussed anymore in the problem situations and activities in the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade mathematics textbooks. In this study, we investigate the calculation principles of subtraction and division in the elementary school mathematics textbooks. Based on our investigation, we justify the addition and subtraction relationship and the multiplication and division relationship at the level of children's understanding so that we discuss some problem situations and activities where the relationships can be applied to subtraction and division. In addition, we suggest educational implications that can be obtained from children's applying the relationships and the properties of equations to subtraction and division.

This study aims to investigate the possibility of elementary students' generalization from three-digit numbers to multi-digit numbers in principles for addition and subtraction. One of main changes was the reduction of range of numbers for addition and subtraction from four-digit to three-digit. It was hypothesized that the students could generalize the principles of addition and subtraction after learning the three-digit addition and subtraction. To achieve the purpose of this study, we selected two groups as a sampling. One is called 'group 2015' who learned four-digit addition and subtraction and the other is called 'group 2016' who learned addition and subtraction only to three-digit. Because of the particularity of these subjects, this study covered two years 2015~2016. We applied our addition and subtraction test which contains ten three-digit or four-digit addition and subtraction items, respectively. We collected their results of the test and analyzed their differences using t-test. The results showed statistically meaningful difference between the mean score of the two groups only for four-digit subtraction. Based on the result, we discussed and made some didactical suggestions for teaching multi-digit addition and subtraction.

This paper compared and contrasted Korean and Singaporean textbooks in order to explore the direction and possibility of teaching the big ideas related to the addition and subtraction of fractions with different denominators proposed by Lee & Pang (2016a). Firstly, we examined the teaching sequences related to the addition of fractions with different denominators in a series of elementary mathematics textbooks of Korea and Singapore. We then analyzed what types of representations are used and how the representations are presented for the big ideas related to the addition of fractions with different denominators. The results of the analysis showed that the contents related to fraction addition are addressed more gradually and systematically in Singaporean textbooks compared to Korean counterparts. The graphical representations appeared in the Singaporean textbooks provide specific implications for teaching the big ideas of the addition of fractions with different denominators. Based on such implications, we expect that the big ideas related to the addition of fractions with different denominators will be addressed explicitly and systematically in Korean textbooks.

Students can calculate the addition and subtraction problem using informal knowledge before receiving the formal instruction. Recently, the value that a computation lesson focus on the understanding and developing the various strategies is highlighted by curriculum developers as well as in reports. Ideally, a educational setting and classroom culture reflected students' learning and problem solving strategies. So, this paper analyzed the similarity and difference with respect to the numeric sentence and word problem in the addition and subtraction. The subjects for the study were 100 third-grade Korean students and 68 third-grade American students. Researcher developed the questionnaire in the addition and subtraction and used it for the survey. The following results have been drawn from this study. The computational ability of Korean students was higher than that of American students in both the numeric sentence and word problem. And it was revealed the differences of the strategies which were used problem solving process. Korean students tended to use algorithms and numbers' characters and relations, but American students tended to use the drawings and algorithms with drawings.

The purpose of this study was to analyze and derive pedagogical implications from elementary mathematics textbooks that align with the revised 2015 curriculum. Specifically, the focus was on the chapters related to simplifying fractions, finding a common denominator, and performing addition and subtraction of Fractions with Different Denominators. The analysis revealed that the overall structure of these chapters was similar across the textbooks, but variations existed in terms of the main activities and the textbook organization. Furthermore, different textbooks employed various types and quantities of visual representations. When designing lesson directions and content, it is crucial to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each visual representation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate addition strategies of the 1st year elementary school students compared to the strategies recommended by the 7th national curriculum. We used interviewed children's worksheets to analyze the children's strategies. The results of the study showed that the formal strategies the textbook recommended and the children's strategies were so different. Teachers need to articulately comment two strategies when they teach mathematics in the classrooms.

Binary Edwards curves (BEdC), a new form of elliptic curves proposed by Bernstein, satisfy the complete addition law without exceptions. This paper describes an efficient hardware implementation of point scalar multiplication on BEdC using projective coordinates. Modified Montgomery ladder algorithm was adopted for point scalar multiplication, and binary field arithmetic operations were implemented using 257-bit binary adder, 257-bit binary squarer, and 32-bit binary multiplier. The hardware operation of the BEdC crypto-core was verified using Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device. It takes 521,535 clock cycles to compute point scalar multiplication.
