One of the biggest changes in 2007 Curriculum Revision is introduction of letter, equation, direct proportion and inverse proportion in fifth and sixth grade of mathematics. The purpose of this study is to provide some implications about teaching-learning method for introduction of letters, teaching and learning activities of equation between the 6th Curriculum and 2007 Curriculum Revision. The below conclusions were drawn from findings obtained in this study. First, the letter and expression were learned in fifth and sixth grade until 6th Curriculum and were learned in seventh grade in middle school of 7th Curriculum. But letter, equation are introduced in 2007 Curriculum Revision again. The overall contents of letter and expression were learned on the 'Relationship' domain in the 6th Curriculum, it were learned on the 'Letter and expression' domain in the 7th Curriculum and is learned on the 'Regularity and problem-solving' domain in the 2007 Curriculum Revision. Second, teaching method of these contents was to promise some definitions at first and then to solve exercises in the 6th Curriculum. But leaning was forced to improve student's problem-solving in the 7th Curriculum. To reduce student's pressure offers at a minimum mathematics terms and to provide problem situations to students who contact daily, it is emphasized on learner's communication in the 2007 Curriculum Revision. We want to be easily connected elementary mathematics and higher mathematics through this study about letter, equation. We recognized how we teach the letter and expression to reduce misconceptions and draw a transition from arithmetic thinking to algebraic thinking and want to be continue of another studies.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the typical characteristics of mathematics education of Japan. In order to achieve this goal, we focused the journal 'Arithmetic Education' from 2007 to 2011. This journal has published by the Japan Society of Mathematical Education and 6 issues each year. A total of 133 articles related with mathematics education were analyzed. The typical characteristics of Japan's research for mathematics education were as follows: The number of single author of article were 98 cases (74%), and those of two co-authors were 21 cases (16%). There are some unusual research topic for mathematics education such as 'combined class'. 'cultural pluralism' and 'mathematics learning disabled children'. The articles 'statistical methods related to educational evaluation', 'statistical analysis for educational evaluation' and 'the relationship between number and quantity on the quaternion number' are very interesting results to the readers who know the basics of statistics and algebra. We may find many researcher who majored pure mathematics in the University of Educations in Korea. So we hope that they may write the paper which combine the pure mathematics and mathematics education. The education survey conducted by the policy is actually very meaningful. If the researcher can connect these surveys to the field of education, then the readers can see a nice paper in the journal of elementary mathematics education in Korea. Finally, it is very difficult to find that counterstatement paper for the results of the other's.

The study aims to compare between two lectures of elementary mathematics education in United States and Korea based on the Ball et al.'s classification of mathematical knowledge for teaching. The lecturers are a professor of University in United States and me. In both lectures, subjects and contents of lectures are much similar but there are many different things. And the differences are mainly due to the area of pedagogical content knowledge, especially either knowledge of content and students or knowledge of content and teaching. Also the different courses of both universities are one of important causes of the differences. The study will be able to contribute to the studies on the improvement of our course, elementary mathematics education.

The Purpose of this study is to investigate and suggest a counseling strategy and practice for solving interpersonal problems of elementary school students that elementary school teachers are now confronted with. In this study, first of all, the actual conditions of interpersonal problems of elementary school students were examined focusing on interpersonal aggressions(violence and victim). The features and problems of existing approaches for solving interpersonal problems of elementary school students were indicated. Although existing approaches for solving interpersonal aggression problems took temporary and external changes, they failed to notice psychological hurts that victims and aggressive victims got. As a fundamental and systematic way for overcoming problems of existing approaches, forgiveness counseling education based on empirical-scientific forgiveness researches was discussed. The Purpose of forgiveness counseling education is to make victims(aggressive victims) overcome the negative responses derived from interpersonal conflict(hurts and victims) and to facilitate them to response positively through experiencing forgiveness psychological process.

교사의 과학 탐구 지도에 대한 인식은 실제 수업에서 탐구 지도를 수행하는데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다. 따라서 교사들이 과학 탐구를 어떻게 인식하는지 이해할 필요가 있다. 이 연구에서는 한국, 싱가포르, 미국 세 국가의 초등교사를 대상으로 과학 탐구 지도에 대한 인식을 조사하였다. 세 국가는 과학교육과정에서 탐구를 강조해 온 역사와 설명 방식이 다르며 전반적인 교육적 상황 또한 상이하다. 총 100명의 초등교사(한국 34, 싱가포르 35, 미국31)를 대상으로 설문을 실시하였으며 설문은 구체적인 교수 상황을 서술하는 교수 시나리오, 이상적인 탐구 수업에 대한 내러티브 쓰기로 구성되었다. 데이터는 외적 기준과 내적 관점 모두에서 분석되었다. 연구 결과 교사들의 과학 탐구 지도에 대한 인식은 전반적으로 전통적 견해에 머무르고 있는 특징을 보였다. 그러나 각 국가의 교육과정에서 탐구가 서술되고 강조된 방식에 따라 차이가 나타나기도 하였다. 이러한 결과가 교사교육에 주는 시사점을 논의하였다.
