The R&E(Research and Education) programs in Mathematics, which have the objects to give students mathematically creative experiences and enlarge creativities of the study of mathematics, could not give the experiences as creative researchers because of the following reasons: The students did not participate in the process of choosing the subjects, the evaluation of individual students actually did not existed, and the publications of mathematics papers have been excluded. In this paper, we study on the issues and some suggestions related to these R&E programs to obtain new R&E Model that gives a mathematically creative experience and enlarges creativities of the study of mathematics.

This study aimed at designing an effective earth science instruction which would help to improve students' scientific creativity using the questioning strategies. The developed questioning strategies were applied to 153 students of $10^{th}{\sim}11^{th}$ grades from March, 2004 to February, 2006. The Reaction Evaluation of Educational Program was used for students' reponses on these questioning strategies. And the Creativity Test developed by the Korea Institute for Aptitude Test was used for the changes of students' scientific creativity. The students responded that these questioning strategies improved students' scientific creativity, and those did not promoted interaction between the teacher and the students. After implementing these questioning strategies, students' analogical ability of language was evaluated the largest score among the 6 categories of scientific creativity. The survey about students' scientific creativity showed that there are meaningful differences between before and after implementing these questioning strategies : analogical ability of figure, analogical ability of language, reading comprehension ability.

This study was carried out in order to explore possibility of artistic activity for strengthening creativity of the gifted children at home by analyzing influence of the gifted children's musical experience and interest level upon creativity. As a result of research, the gifted children's musical experience and interest level were distributed in the mid-lower rank as a whole. The mean in score of creativity was high. Among sub-spheres, originality, abstractness of titles, and resistance to premature closure were surveyed to be especially excellent. And the result of this study was indicated to be high in influence of musical experience and interest level upon creativity. Some conclusions and implications that were obtained through this study are as follows. First, to explore influence of musical experience as artistic activity upon creativity, first of all, the qualitative inspection needs to be given priority to musical activity itself, which is being experienced by the gifted children as the research subjects. Second, there is necessity of paying attention to the musical experience and interest level of the low gifted children. Third, for the gifted children prior to activation of art education, a clear reason why the art education is needed and the usefulness need to be presented.

지식정보화 사회에서는 보편적인 지식의 습득과 활용을 넘어 기존의 정보를 창의적으로 재활용하는 능력을 요구하고 있다. 반면 현재의 컴퓨터 교육은 소프트웨어의 활용교육에 그치고 있어 다양하고 창의적인 사고를 신장시키기 위한 교육으로는 적합하지 않다. 이에 본 논문에서는 7차 교유과정에서 교육목표로 다루고 있는 창의성이라는 주제와 학교현장에서 아동들에게 쉽게 접목시킬 수 있는 프로그래밍 언어로 로고를 선택, 분석하여 적용 가능한 교육 자료로 개발하여 보았다.

삼각형은 초 ${\cdot}$ 중등학교 수학교육에서 가장 기본적인 평면도형들 중의 하나지만, 삼각형을 활용한 다양한 유형과 수준의 교수-학습 자료들은 많이 개발되어 있지 않다. 특히, 정형적인 교수-학습 활동을 포함하여 학습자들의 창의적 성향을 개발 ${\cdot}$ 육성하는데 도움을 줄 수 있는 자료들은 그리 흔치않은 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 삼각형을 창의성 신장을 도구로 활용하여, 다양한 구체적 조작 활동에서부터 다양한 형식적인 논증의 경험을 제공할 수 있는 창의적 학습 자료를 개발할 것이다.

창의성은 21세기 지식기반 정보사회를 살아가는 현대인에게 정보홍수에서 새로운 정보를 재창조하는 중요한 능력이다. 그리고, 디지털미디어는 현대인들의 가장 빠르고 쉽게 생각이나 느낌을 표현하는 도구이다. 현 교육현장에서는 학습자의 창의성과 문제해결력 신장을 위해 디지털미디어를 활용한 이미지와 영상을 투입하고 있다. 하지만, 본 연구는 교수자의 입장에서 디지털미디어를 활용한 교수학습자료를 투입하는 것이 아닌, 학습자 스스로가 디지털미디어를 활용하여 자신의 생각을 창의성있게 표현하는데 중점을 두었다. 특히, 디지털미디어 중에서 디지털카메를 활용하여 초등학교 5학년 국어과에서 적합한 학습차시를 선택하여 학습자의 창의력 신장을 위한 수업을 설계하여 적용해 보기로 하였다.

The study was conducted to analyze the extent of students' creativity through the use of scaffolding composed of different kinds of experience in making insights on problem solving and to investigate the function of a new scaffolding type which is not used in accomplishing a phase of activity but in having an insight. The students' achievements in problem solving given the scaffolding for on-site experience were compared with those given the scaffolding using stories. Also, the extent of creativity of the first- and sixth- grade students using the two types of scaffolding were investigated as they carried out picture completion task from TTCT. The results of the study showed that the control groups not given the scaffolding in post-test did not advance in creativity but experimental groups given the scaffolding showed improvement in some subordinate elements after scaffolding. Moreover, scaffolding using stories were more effective in enhancing the students' creativity than the scaffolding using on-site experience.

This research examines the effect of robots for improving creativity in elementary art classes. A creative art program with robot was developed based on research of robots and their effects on creativity, and an elementary art curriculum analysis. The program ran for 16 class periods. In this research, fifty seven 4th grade students participated, and an analysis of covariance was carried out based on before and after creativity tests. The research result shows that students who used the robot program achieved a significant improvement in their creativity over students who did not use the robot program in art classes. It proves that robots can be effective tools for improving creativity in elementary art classes.

In this study, we performed experimental studies on the educational programming languages of Dolittle and Robot to compare and analyze their effect on improving creativity. We formed three sixth grade classes, totaling 99 students, into a Robot class, a Dolittle class, and a general class that served as a neutral. The Dolittle class and the Robot class took ten programming lessons with specific hand-in operations, as well as feedback and discussion, during ten weeks. The experiment results showed that student creativity in the two programming classes improved more than that of students in the general class. Especially creativity of the students in the Robot class improved the most. Moreover, the mean creativity of the lower academic achievement group was slightly better than that of the higher group. This implies that there is no positive correlation between academic achievement and creativity.

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.
