In this study, the instrument of mathematical problem posing ability and mathematical creativity ability tests were considered, and the differences between gifted and regular students in the ability were investigated by the test. The instrument consists of each 10 items and 5 items, and verified its quality due to reliability, validity and discrimination. Participants were 218 regular and 100 gifted students from seventh grade. As a result, not only problem solving but also mathematical creativity and problem posing could be the characteristics of the giftedness.

The purpose of this study was to examine and analyze the cognitive demand of the mathematical tasks suggested in the middle school textbooks. In particular, it aimed to reveal the overall picture of the level of cognitive demand of the mathematical tasks in the strand of geometry in the textbooks. We adopted the framework for mathematical task analysis suggested by Stein & Smith(1998) and analyzed the mathematical tasks accordingly. The findings from the analysis showed that 95 percent of the mathematical tasks were at high level and the rest at low level in terms of cognitive demand. Most of the mathematical tasks in the textbooks were algorithmic and focused on producing correct answers by using procedures. In particular, the high level tasks were presented at the end of each chapter or unit for wrap up rather than as key resources.

This study looked at how content reviews with mathematical games in class would influence the mathematical disposition of middle school students. In doing so, three games adapted from prior research were used as a supplementary instruction after school hours over three months. The mathematical topics of the games involved concepts of probability and trigonometry at the middle school level. The results of the pre- and post-survey on mathematical disposition indicate that incorporating mathematical games appeared to have some positive impacts on whether students might be more eager to learn mathematics and actually put more effort in learning materials.

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of small-group arithmetic word problem activities with concrete materials on 5 year old children's mathematical ability and attitude. Methods: A total of 34 five-year-old children (control group 16 children, experimental group18 children) attending two kindergartens in P city participated in this study. Fifteen small-group arithmetic word problem activities with concrete materials were conducted in the classroom of the experimental group twice a week for eight weeks. Before and after the activities, all the participants individually took a basic arithmetic test, mathematical word problem solving test, and mathematical attitudes test. Results: First, we observed that the children in the experimental group achieved significantly higher scores on the mathematical ability tests, including the basic arithmetic test and mathematical word problems solving test when compared to the children in the control group. Second, we also found that children in the experimental group showed higher improvement in the mathematical attitudes test than their counterparts. Conclusion/Implications: The results of this study suggest that small-group arithmetic word problem activities with concrete materials are effective in improving children's mathematical ability and attitudes.

The former study results demonstrate that differences between people of creativity and non-creativity lie in differences of the self-efficacies rather than those of cognitive aspects and a man of higher self-efficacy has a tendency to set up a higher goal of achievement and higher self-efficacy influences his or her achievement results as well (Zimmerman & Bandura 1994). Using the method of mathematical creative responses of open-ended approach (Lee, Hwang & Seo 2003), difference of mathematical self-efficacies has been surveyed in the study. Results of the survey showed that some students of a high mathematical self-efficacy even had bad marks in the originality or creativity but, in some cases, some students of a low mathematical self-efficacy rather had good marks in the fluency. Therefore, the response results mathematical creativity ability may be a special ability and not just a combination of self-efficacy ability. The fluency of the mathematical creative ability may be a combination of mathematical motivation ability that have been surveyed in the study suggest that not only cognitive components but also social and emotional components should be included in a development process of new creative method for teaching and learning mathematics.

The purpose of this study was providing implications in teaching and learning activities to vitalize mathematical communication and to raise positive attitudes about mathematics. We analyzed mathematical communication, disposition and attitudes of the students who had lower mathematical achievement rather than that of Korean language in class using reading materials and strategies. We found that teaching-learning activities using the reading materials and strategies let the low achievers in mathematics communicate more about mathematical notions and problem-solving process actively. The activities triggered interests and attention of mathematics and self-study. In addition, the lessons with reading materials and strategies aroused confidence, will and responsibility to mathematics learning to the students. They made the learners notice mathematics' values and roles and gave the opportunity of reflection about students' learning processes. As a result, the teaching-learning using reading materials and strategies should be developed and accomplished actively in classroom to turn mathematical inclination and attitudes of the students who had had negative inclination and attitudes to mathematics into those of positive and to vitalize mathematical communication to the lower achievers in mathematics.

본 연구는 초등학교 5학년 학생들의 수학적 모델링 수업에서 모둠 구성 방법에 따라 수학적 모델링 과정 수행 능력과 수학적 추론 능력에 차이가 있는지 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 3가지 문제 상황으로 각각 8차시에 걸쳐 총 24차시의 수학적 모델링 수업을 설계 및 실시하였다. 그 결과 동질 모둠 보다는 이질 모둠에서 더 낳은 수학적 모델링 과정 수행 능력과 수학적 추론 능력을 보여 주었다. 본 연구 결과는 수학 수업에서 수학적 모델링을 적용할 때 모둠 구성의 관점에서 이질 모둠이 보다 효과적임을 시사한다.

The purpose of this study is to extract some suggestions in developing the elementary students' abilities to solve the fundamental mathematical problems by analyzing the degree of the correlation between the fundamental mathematical capability and the reading capability of the elementary 3th graders. In order to achieve this goal, this article analyzed the correlation between the fundamental mathematical capability and the reading capability on the basis of the studying result about the diagnostic evaluation conducted on 20,556 elementary 3th graders by the KICE as a national level basic scholastic achievement evaluation. The coefficient of correlation between the fundamental mathematical capability and the reading capability was .621. As such, it shows that the reading capability plays an important role in solving the fundamental mathematical problems. Particularly, the coefficient of correlation between the corollary arguments and the problem solving ability and the reading capability was the highest among the sub-capabilities of fundamental mathematical capability. In addition, judging from the result that the coefficient of correlation between the practical understanding capability and the solving capability of the fundamental mathematical problems was .528, it informs that the practical understanding capability takes an' important part in developing the fundamental mathematical capability of the elementary students. The results of this study support the hypothesis that the understanding capability plays the very important role in solving the fundamental mathematical problems. In particular, the results suggest that it is necessary that the pupils should be simultaneously supported not only by the capability of the mathematical basis, but also by the reading capability, especially the practical understanding capability about the problems, in order to develop the capability to solve the fundamental mathematical problems.

본 연구는 수학적 신념체계를 탐색하고, 고등학생의 수학적 신념체계의 중심신념요인 분석을 목적으로 한다. 개별적인 수학적 신념보다는 수학적 신념체계가 수학 학습 및 문제해결에 훨씬 많은 영향을 끼쳐서 내부적인 동력이 될 수 있고, 학생의 수학적 관점을 갖게 하기에 수학 교수 학습 및 문제해결에서 수학적 신념체계는 중요하다. 수학적 신념체계는 수학 교과, 수학 문제해결, 수학 교수 학습, 자아개념에 대한 신념이 밀접한 상호관련성을 갖고 구성되며, 신념체계에는 신념간의 관련성과 영향력에 따라 중심신념이 존재한다. 이에, 고등학생 526명의 수학적 신념 검사결과를 바탕으로, 수학적 신념의 요인간 상관분석과 중다회귀분석 결과를 이용하여, 중심신념요인으로 끈기, 도전성, 자신감, 감정을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 수학적 신념체계의 중심신념요인들은 학생들의 수학학습의 경험에 의해 발달되고 평가에 의해 견고해진 것으로 살펴볼 수 있었다.
