본 연구는 확률의 다양한 의미를 반영한 초등학교 확률 학습 프로그램을 개발하고, 개발된 프로그램의 적용 가능성을 알아보는데 목적을 두고 있다. 먼저 확률의 다양한 의미를 반영한 초등학교 확률 학습프로그램을 개발하기 위하여, 프로그램의 기본 방향을 설정하고, 확률의 다양한 의미를 반영하기 위한 교수 방법을 마련하였다. 개발된 프로그램은 초등학교 6학년 한 단원 분량인 7차시로 이루어져 있다. 다음으로 프로그램 시행 전에 실시한 검사에서 확률적 사고 수준이 상 ${\cdot}$ 중 ${\cdot}$ 하인 것으로 나타난 세 명의 학생을 연구 대상으로 개발된 프로그램을 시행하였다. 프로그램 적용 전 ${\cdot}$ 후에 실시한 지필 평가와 비디오 카메라로 녹음한 수업 내용과 학생들의 학습지를 검토하여 프로그램 적용 전, 1${\sim}$7 각 차시 후, 프로그램 적용 후의 시기로 나누어 분석한 결과, 세 학생 모두 확률적 사고 수준이 가장 높은 수준인 4수준으로 발전하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 확률을 이론적 의미 뿐 아니라 경험적 ${\cdot}$ 통계적 의미로 접근하면 초등학교 학생들도 확률 개념을 학습할 수 있었다. 따라서 확률을 다양한 관점으로 접근한다면, 초등학교에서도 독립성, 조건부 확률 같은 개념을 유의미하게 학습할 수 있을 것이다.

Continuous probability distribution was one of the mathematics concept that students had difficulty. This study analyzed the definition and introduction of the continuous probability distribution under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum. In this study, the following subjects were studied. Firstly, definitions of continuous probability variable in 'Probability and Statistics' textbook developed under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum were analyzed. Secondly, introductions of continuous probability distribution in 'Probability and Statistics' textbook developed under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum were analyzed. The results of this study were as follows. First, 8 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable with all the real values within a range or an interval. And 1 textbook under the 2009-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable when the set of its value is uncountable. But all textbooks under the 2015-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable with all the real values within a range. Second, 4 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum and 4 textbooks under 2015-revised curriculum introduced a continuous random distribution using an uniformly distribution. And 5 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum and 5 textbooks under the 2015-revised curriculum introduced a continuous random distribution using a relative frequency density.

In Korea, mathematics education of 1-6 grade students has been taken according to the 7th national mathematics curriculum, which was renovated by the Ministry of Education and Human Resources Development announcement in 1997. The education of probability and statistics has been carried out as a part of this curriculum. We analyze the contents of probability and statistics in 1-6 grade mathematics textbooks and propose the solutions about the problems on the contents of probability and statistics.

This study aims at presenting the educational model for the effective application of probability and statistics to the H/W curriculum. In order to do this, this paper conducts a survey with H/W major college students, and then analyzes how probability and statistics can be correlated with other H/W core subjects and how the knowledge of probability and statistics can affect the understanding of H/W majors through the actual class experiment. Consequently this study suggests probability and statistics as a prerequisite subject in the H/W curriculum.

In this study, 85 studies on probability education from 2000 to 2020 were analyzed by publishing year, journals, research subjects, and research topics. Especially, fundamental probabilistic ideas presented by Batanero et al.(2016) were applied to examine which topics were dominant in domestic probability education research. As a result, it was found that there has been a few research in probability education in Korea during the past 20 years, and the number of human subject studies was slightly more than the number of non-human subject studies. In addition, the analysis of research topics according to the fundamental probabilistic ideas showed that two topics, conditional probability and independence and combinatorial enumeration and counting, were dominant in domestic probability education research. However, while both conditional probability and independence and combinatorial enumeration and counting are introduced to young children using intuitive manners in international probability education research, subjects related to these topics were primarily high school students and pre and in-service teachers. Based on the results of this study, the implications for the goal and the direction of future probability education research were discussed.

Several previous studies suggested that simulation could be a main didactic instrument in overcoming misconception and probability modeling. However, they have not described enough how to reorganize probability knowledge as knowledge to be taught in a curriculum using simulation. The purpose of this study is to identify the theoretical knowledge needed in developing a didactic transposition method of probability knowledge using simulation. The theoretical knowledge needed to develop this method was specified as follows : pseudo-contextualization/pseudo-personalization, and pseudo-decontextualization/pseudo-deper-sonalization according to the introductory purposes of simulation. As a result, this study developed a local instruction theory and an hypothetical learning trajectory for overcoming misconceptions and modeling situations respectively. This study summed up educational intention, which was designed to transform probability knowledge into didactic according to the introductory purposes of simulation, into curriculum, lesson plans, and experimental teaching materials to present didactic ideas for new probability education programs in the high school probability curriculum.

The notions of conditional probability and independence are fundamental to all aspects of probabilistic reasoning. Several previous studies identified some misconceptions in students' thinking in conditional probability. However, they have not analyzed enough the nature of conditional probability. The purpose of this study was to analyze conditional probability and students' knowledge on conditional probability. First, we analyzed the conditional probability from mathematical, historico-genetic, psychological, epistemological points of view, and identified the essential aspects of the conditional probability. Second, we investigated the high school students' and undergraduate students' thinking m conditional probability and independence. The results showed that the students have some misconceptions and difficulties to solve some tasks with regard to conditional probability. Based on these analysis, the characteristics of reasoning about conditional probability are investigated and some suggestions are elicited.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the United States Elementary Mathematics textbooks "Everyday Mathematics", focused on area of the probability. The concept of probability as qualitative probability is taught from Kindergarten in EM curricula for progressive mathematising. EM have reflected both perspectives in probability which are a frequency perspective and a classical perspective. And EM includes abundant activities for remedying the misconceptions of probability. On the basis of the results from this analysis, we have five suggestions which are helpful for the revision of the Korean national curriculum.

본 논문에서는 수학교육용 소프트웨어에서 확률적 현상을 경험한 이후 과학 그래프 해석에 있어 확률론적 관점을 도입하여 해석하는 학습자의 관점의 변화를 제시한다. 이 연구에서 11명의 고등학교 1학년 학생은 수학교육용 소프트웨어인 지오지브라(GeoGebra)를 활용하여 학습자가 평면 상에서 수직선이나 반원 위에 점을 찍는 활동을 통하여 기하학적 확률을 경험하였으며 이와 같은 경험을 토대로 물의 상평형 그래프를 해석하였다. 물의 상평형 그래프에 나타나는 얼음(고체), 물(액체), 수증기(기체)의 상태 변화에 대하여 각 상태가 나타나는 온도-압력의 영역 간의 경계에 대하여 학습자는 기하학적 확률을 적용하여 해석하려고 하였으나 경계선 위의 온도-압력의 물의 미시적 구조를 표현하는 과정에서 4명의 학생만 확률론적 관점으로 해석하고 그렇지 못한 학생들은 상태의 공존을 물질적 관점이나 과정적 관점으로 이해하였다.

For a basic engineering education the confirmation and verification of the deductive Inference was studied and the principle of probability inference was applied. The background of introduction of deductive Inference and its test method was mentioned, and historic arguments on the compatibility of deductive statistical inference was summarized and analyzed. Philosophical arguments on the deductive confirmation for engineering experiments was introduced. Premise, procedure, and control of the experiments are studied. As an example of the deductive probability inference three groups of experimental data were used in order to find successful inferences respectively.
