In this paper, we primarily focus on the perspectives about creative process, which is how mathematical creativity emerged, as one aspect of mathematical creativity and then present a desirable task characteristic to measure and program characteristics to develop mathematical creativity. At first, we describe domain-generality perspective and domain-specificity perspective on creativity. The former regard divergent thinking skill as a key cognitive process embedded in creativity of various discipline domain involving language, science, mathematics, art and so on. In contrast the researchers supporting later perspective insist that the mechanism of creativity is different in each discipline. We understand that the issue on this two perspective effect on task and program to foster and measure creativity in mathematics education beyond theoretical discussion. And then, based on previous theoretical review, we draw a desirable characteristic on instruction program and task to facilitate and test mathematical creativity, and present an applicable task and instruction cases based on Geneplor model at the mathematics class in elementary school. In conclusion, divergent thinking is necessary but sufficient to develop mathematical creativity and need to consider various mathematical reasoning such as generalization, ion and mathematical knowledge.

Web2.0 이라는 인터넷 환경의 변화 속에서 사용자들의 자발적인 참여를 통해 생산된 컨텐츠(UCC)가 화두가 되고 있다. 다수의 사용자 참여는 집단지성을 발휘하고 이렇게 생성된 UCC 는 새로운 가치를 창출한다는 믿음이 확산된 가운데, 사용자는 더 이상 정보수용자의 입장이 아닌 정보제공자의 입장에서 컨텐츠 생성에 대한 범위와 역할이 크게 향상되고 있다. 그렇다면 과연 무엇이 이러한 사용자 생성 컨텐츠의 창의성에 가장 큰 원동력이 될까 또한 무엇이 집단지성, 집단의 창의성을 창출하는데 가장 큰 영향을 미칠까? 본 연구는 이러한 의문에서 출발하였다. 이와 같은 연구 문제를 해결하기 위하여 피드백과 동기 그리고 창의성에 기반한 인지 평가 이론과 창의성에 관한 사회적 특성이론에 근거, 상호작용 즉 컨텐츠에 대한 피드백을 기반으로 연구모형을 세우게 되었다. 이러한 연구 모형을 설문을 통해 검증해 본 결과, 피드백이 사용자의 동기에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고, 결국 그러한 동기가 개인의 창의성 및 집단 창의성에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 이론적으로는 인지 평가 이론의 확장 적용 및 CSCW 환경에서 암묵적으로 인식된 피드백과 같은 상호작용의 중요성을 공고히 하는데 기여할 수 있으며, 실제로는 이러한 피드백 요소를 시각적으로 적절히 배치 및 노출하여 사용자의 내적 용기와 창의성을 촉진하여야 함을 밝힌다는데 의의를 가질 수 있겠다.

With leadership and speciality, creativity is cutting a fine figure among major values of human resource in 21C knowledge-based society. In the 7th school curriculum much emphasis is put on the importance of creativity by pursuing the image of human being based on creativity based on basic capabilities'. Also creativity is one of major factors of giftedness, and developing one's creativity is the core of the program for gifted education. Doing mathematics requires high order thinking and knowledgeable understandings. Thus mathematical creativity is used as a measure to test one's flexibility, and therefore it is the basic tool for creativity study. But theoretical study for mathematical creativity is not common. In this paper, we discuss mathematical creativity applied to 6 approaches suggested by Sternberg and Lubart in educational theory. That is, mystical approaches, pragmatical approaches, psycho-dynamic approaches, cognitive approaches, psychometric approaches and scio-personal approaches. This study expects to give useful tips for understanding mathematical creativity and understanding recent research results by reviewing various aspects of mathematical creativity.

Creativity is the thinking ability and the expression of new image by imagination as a problem recognition and way of solution. This study aims to search for the creativity theory of body movement and to analyze the creativity factor. According to the study, the creativity of body movement needs four steps: movement awareness, movement design, movement discovery and movement use. The use of new image through self-perception and self concept brings about a creative improvement in the problem recognition and its resolution function. In conclusion, the creativity of body movement means the infinity of body movement as 'the third energy' and 'the flexibility of flow' by interaction.

In this study, the relationship between the perception of 'scientific creativity' and 'scientific creativity education' of pre-service elementary school teachers was explored, focusing on the creativity within and between the framework. Within-frame creativity is divided into theoretical creativity and experimental creativity that operate within the paradigm, and between-frame creativity refers to theoretical creativity that brings about paradigm shift. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, and the analysis was performed based on the categories within and between the frames. As a result, pre-service elementary school teachers mainly understood scientific creativity as the scientific creativity within a frame. And they consider scientific creativity in various ways in experimental and theoretical creativity aspects within a frame. On the other hand, they thought that scientific creativity education was possible in terms of experimental creativity within a frame. Based on the results of this study, we would like to discuss the attributes of scientific creativity that can be considered in science education and its educational direction.

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.

Mathematical creativity is essential in school mathematics and mathematics curriculum and ensures the growth of mathematical ability. Therefore mathematics educators try to develop students' creativity via mathematics education for a long time. In special, 2011 revised mathematics curriculum emphasizes mathematical creativity. Yet, it may seem like a vague characterization of mathematical creativity. Furthermore, it is needed to develop the methods for developing the mathematical creativity. So, the goal of this paper is to search for teaching and learning models for developing the mathematical creativity. For this, I discuss about issues of mathematical creativity and extract the factors of mathematical creativity. The factors of mathematical creativity are divided into cognitive factors, affective factors and attitude factors that become the factors of development of mathematical creativity in the mathematical instruction. And I develop 8-teaching and learning models for development of mathematical creativity based on the characters of mathematics and the most recent theories of mathematics education. These models make it crucial for students to develop the mathematical creativity and create the new mathematics in the future.

The study aims to analyze Thomas Young's problem solving processes of analogical reasoning during the formation of the interference theory of light, and to draw its implications for secondary science education, particularly for enhancing creativity in science. The research method employed in the study was literature review of the papers which Young himself had written about sound wave and property of light. His thinking processes and specific features in his thought that were obtained through analysis of his papers about light are as follows: Young reconsidered Newton's experiments and observations, and reinterpreted Newton's results in the new viewpoints. Through this analysis, Young discovered that Newton's interpretation about his own experiments and observations was faulty in a certain point of view and new interpretation is necessary. Based on the data, it is hypothesized that colors observed on thin plates and colors appeared repeatedly on Newton's ring are appeared because of the effect of light interference. Young used analogical reasoning during the process of inference of similarity between sound and light. And he formulated an hypothesis on the interference of light through using abductive reasoning from interference of water wave, and proved the hypothesis by constructing an creative experimental device, which is called a critical experiment. It is implicated that the analogical reasoning and experimental devices for explaining the light interference which Young created and used can be utilized for school science education enhancing creativity in science.
