It is well known that the development of mathematics in eastern Asia was based on Chinese mathematics. Investigating Chinese mathematics books that were brought into Chosun, we study how Chinese mathematics influenced Chosun mathematics. Chinese mathematics books were brought into Chosun in three stages, namely basic mathematics books in the era of King SeJong(1397-1450), Chinese mathematics books influenced by western mathematics in the 17th century and finally those with commentaries on mathematics of Song-Yuan era in the 19th century. We also study the process of their importations.

중국의 수학교육에서는 두 가지 기본, 즉 기본지식과 기본기술을 주창하는 전통이 있다. 이러한 전통의 직접적인 결과는, 중국 학생들이 국제수학시험(예를 들어 1989년도의 IAEP)에서 뛰어난 성적을 거둘 수 있는 능력을 갖추거나 국제수학올림피아드(IMO)에서 빼어난 성적을 거두는 것으로 나타난다. 우리는 이 강연에서, 중국 교사들이 "두 가지 기본"을 왜 그리고 어떻게 가르치는가와, 그들의 "두 가지 기본"을 학생의 창의성과 어떻게 결합시키는가를 보일 것이다. 개방형 문제해결 기법은 그러한 목적을 달성하기위한 한 가지 방법이다. 이 강연에서 생각할 주제들은 다음과 같다. 문화적 배경; 계산속도; "연습이 완전함을 만든다"라는 가설; 교실에서의 효율성; "두 가지 기본"과 개인적 성장 사이의 균형. 특히, 중국의 수학 교육자는 개방형 문제해결 기법과 "두 가지 기본" 초석 사이의 연결성에 더 많은 주의를 기울이고 있다.

China becomes more and more important for Koreans in political and social aspects as well as in educational aspect. However, there hasn't been any study regarding the mathematics curriculum of China. Thus, it is necessary to introduce the recent mathematics curriculum of China, compare the curriculum of China with that of Korea, and find the features of the curriculum. Several characteristics of the mathematics curriculum of China were identified; 1) mathematics strands were combined, 2) condensed and linear structure of contents, 3) providing examples for mathematics topics stated in the curriculum, and etc. Based on these characteristics, some implications were elicited for the next mathematics curriculum revision in Korea.

Under the consideration of Chinese math education tradition and new educational orientation, we compared and analyzed Korea and China's lower-grade elementary school textbooks. The result was that Chinese textbook puts much emphases on practice, skill and repetition, presents condensed contents, provides various learning contents simultaneously, rich humorous expressions, and a lot of implicit representations. From these results, we presented some implications for our mathematics education, future textbook writing, and the follow-up studies.

This study investigated the Chinese national university entrance examination (Gaokao) in mathematics administered in 2009 and 2010 to draw out some implications on the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT) in mathematics of Korea. To evaluate the attainments of basic mathematical skills and multilateral abilities required for further studies in university, the Gaokao mathematics is set in two forms(Art/Science), based on the Chinese national mathematics curriculum. The types of items in the Gaokao mathematics are multiple-choice, single-answer, and write-out-answer. The mathematical abilities that the Gaokao mathematics evaluates are mathematical reasoning, operation, geometrical imagination, application, and creativity. As a result, some implications on the Korean CSAT are drawn out in terms of the level of difficulty, the types of items, the arrangements, and the scores of items.

This study is necessary for the stable settlement of the 2022 revised mathematics curriculum 'data and possibility' area. This study was conducted centering on literature analysis. The purpose of this study is to realize statistics education in line with the 2022 revised mathematics curriculum. This purpose was achieved by examining the statistics learning contents of the 2022 revised curriculum, analyzing Chinese mathematics curriculum, and analyzing Chinese mathematics textbooks. In this study, the following studies were conducted. First, five elements were extracted through the analysis of the 'statistics and probability' area of the Chinese mathematics curriculum. The extracted elements are the 4th grade goals, synthesis and practice content areas, achievement standards for statistics and probability (6), (9), and (11). Second, examples presented in Chinese mathematics textbooks and Chinese curriculum appendices related to the extracted elements were analyzed. Regarding the 4th grade goal, the statistical problem-solving process of the 7th grade 2nd semester mathematics textbook was analyzed. Regarding the synthesis and practice content area, the data analysis unit of the 8th grade 2nd semester mathematics textbook was analyzed. In relation to the achievement standard (6), Example 85 of the curriculum appendix was analyzed, in relation to the achievement standard (9), Example 86 was analyzed, and in relation to the achievement standard (11), Example 87 was analyzed. Third, based on the analysis results, implications for the development of new curriculum and 'textbook development, teaching and learning methods' according to the 2022 revised middle school mathematics curriculum were derived. Through the results of this study, we expect the successful realization of the 2022 revised middle school mathematics and curriculum statistics education.

This study starts with dividing the history of mathematics education of China into four periods; Experimentation Period(the 1st period, from 1949 to 1965), Stagnancy Period(the 2nd period, from 1966 to 1976). Adjustment Period(the 3rd period, from 1977 to 1999) and Development Period(the 4th period, since 2000 ~) Through periodical classification, several causes and characteristics in mathematics education of each period are identified. And from that, this study draws implications for Korea mathematics education.

This study is aimed to compare the area of geometry of elementary mathematics textbooks in korea and china. Through this study, we would like to suggest some guidelines in order to develop geometric curriculum and textbooks in korea and to search for more efficient methods of learning mathematics. For this, we have looked through the general characteristics of geometry domain in mathematics curriculums and the textbooks in korea and china. Furthermore, we have found the similarities and differences while comparing specific contents in the two countries. The followings are the conclusions of this study. First, The mathematics curriculum in korea is divided into 'figure' domain, but the one in china is divided into 'space and figure' domain, which deals with figure and measurement. And china constructs the contents of the basic figure as a whole unit. Second, korea gives clear learning aims about contents whereas china gives learning activities. Lastly, when starting teaching a plain figure, korea focuses on checking and finding definitions and characters through fundamental figures. However, china focuses on figuring out components and the relations among them throughout various plain figure activities.
