직관은 참된 지식을 발견하는 도구이며 문제해결 과정에서 번뜩이는 아이디어가 발현되는 것으로 받아들여진다. 직관에 의해 우리는 자명한 사실을 즉각적으로 인식하며, 수학적 사실을 발견하는 힘을 부여받는다. 따라서 직관은 논리와 더불어 수학교육에서 강조해야 할 중요한 주제이다. 인 글에서는 수학 교수$\cdot$학습에서 직관적 사고력의 신장을 위해 직관에 대한 체계적인 연구가 필요함을 인식하고, 이를 위해 수리철학의 역사와 수학적 발견의 역사에서 직관에 대하여 알아보았다.

영재의 판별은 명확한 조작적 정의를 바탕으로 하되 분명한 목적을 가진 영재교육프로그램에의 참가 대상자를 선발하는 기능으로 그 역할이 바뀌어야 한다. 수학 영재성의 발현시기와 수학 교과 내에서의 관심 분야에도 개인차가 있으므로 선발에는 시차를 두고 수 차례의 기회를 제공하여야 한다. 또한 프로그램 대상자로 기선발된 아동 중에 부적응 현상을 보이는 경우가 있으므로 재선발을 실시하는 것도 필요하다. 선발은 수학 문제해결력 검사에서 일정 비율의 범위에 들어가는 학생들을 우선 대상으로 하되, 창의력이 우수한 학생을 위주로 선발해야 한다. 특히 가능성의 발현과 교육의 기회라는 측면에서 볼 때 선발 위원회에서는 모든 요인의 합계 점수보다는 프로그램을 운영하고자 하는 방향이나 제공하고자 하는 교육수준과 일치하는 특정한 요인에 대한 점수만을 우선적으로 고려하는 것도 필요하다.

The purpose of this research was to make fair assessment methods which took into account characteristics of mathematically underachievers. The researchers devised an descriptive tests and interviews and applied them to the mathematics underachievers who could not reveal their achievements in the traditional assessment and then analyzed their cognitive and affective characteristics in the alternative assessments. After selecting three students by the normal assessment made of simple subjective and multiple choice questions, the cognitive and affective characteristics found in the general assessment were reflected to the descriptive tests and interviews. The descriptive tests and interviews are comprised of descriptive narrations and informal interview questions. After the assessment, the teacher and students gave feedbacks one another. All the assessment activities were recorded by a camcorder to analyze cognitive and affective characteristics of the children. Throughout the research, the following conclusions were made. The mathematics underachievers showed the characteristics which didn't appeared in the normal assessment. They showed normal abilities of problem solving and communication In the cognitive area. Also they brought in positive result in most parts in the affective area. However, the student B displayed considerable ability of mathematical thinking that is over the average level of mathematical underachievers. This implies that we can definite the mathematical underachievers differently when we use the detailed and relief assessment method instead of the traditional assessment. On the other hand, one student tended to depend on the teacher and another student overheard what the others talk during the study. This defect should be complemented by the further studies about assessment method for the mathematical underachievers. Also appropriate assessment methods should be made for applying to the various mathematical underachievers. Many studies have been concentrated on the learning for mathematical underachievers but there is little concern about the assessment for the mathematical underachievers. However it is the fundamental way to reduce the number of mathematics underachievers that we construct consistent learning methods and assessments for the mathematical underachievers.

Modern society's technological and economical changes require high-level education that involve critical thinking, problem solving, and communication with others. Thus, today's perspective of mathematics and mathematics learning recognizes a potential symbolic relationship between concrete and abstract mathematics. If the problems engage students' interests and aspiration, mathematical problems can serve as a source of their motivation. In addition, if the problems stimulate students'thinking, mathematical problems can also serve as a source of meaning and understanding. From these perspectives, the purpose of my study is to prove that mathematical modeling tasks can provide opportunities for students to attach meanings to mathematical calculations and procedures, and to manipulate symbols so that they may draw out the meanings out of the conclusion to which the symbolic manipulations lead. The review of related literature regarding mathematical modeling and model are performed as a theoretical study. I especially concentrated on the study results of Freudenthal, Fischbein, Lesh, Disessea, Blum, and Niss's model systems. We also investigate the emphasis of mathematising, the classified method of mathematical modeling, and the cognitive nature of mathematical model. And We investigate the purposes of model construction and the instructive meaning of mathematical modeling. In conclusion, we have presented the methods that promote students' effective model construction ability. First, the teaching and the learning begins with problems that reflect reality. Second, if students face problems that have too much or not enough information, they will construct useful models in the process of justifying important conjecture by attempting diverse models. Lastly, the teachers must understand the modeling cycle of the students and evaluate the effectiveness of the models that the students have constructed from their classroom observations, case study, and interaction between the learner and the teacher.

In a globalization and information society in the 21st century, the emphasis of education is on producing people who can create intellectual value. To meet the purpose in mathematics education, students should be taught to be able to understand basic logics and principles and exchange mathematical information each other. Also they had better be guided to study on their own at home in an effective way. In reality, however, most of the home study does not go beyond confirming the same homework. It is very difficult for students to plan systematic preparation and review of their lessons and study on their own. Moreover there seems to be no integration between the lessons students receive at school and in private classes. Therefore the need for more systematic home study in relation to school lessons is high to maximize the teaming effect. Studying through Web has little restriction in terms of time and space. Students can collect useful information inexpensively and share their learning assignment with each other. But mathematics education through Web has not yet been developed in such a way as to see a positive result from it. This research intends to develop a web site where students can study mathematics systematically in a self-guided way. The research methods applied included survey, student discussion and online home study. The questionnaires were designed to figure out students'and parents'changes in their concept of mathematics home study. The research also tried to look for ways to cut down the burden of expensive private lessons in mathematics. The student discussions were made up of problem-making and problem-solving. The discussion procedure was analysed so as to check if students used their creativity while they were working. As stated above, the research aims to develop a web site to support effective home study, enhance students' mathematical ability and reduce the burden of private lessons.

수학적 사고력이 학생 스스로 문제를 해결하는 과정에서 가장 발달한다는 주장과 함께 이를 구현하는 방법론에 대한 연구도 꾸준히 이루어져왔다. 최근에 그 방법론으로 몰입적인 사고를 통한 학생의 학습 방법이 제안되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 몰입적인 사고를 적용하여 학생들이 스스로 수학문제를 해결해 나갈 수 있는지를 알아보았다. 연구는 고등학교 교과과정인 미적분에 대한 선행학습을 하지 않은 중학교 3학년 학생들 10명을 대상으로 몰입적 사고를 통해서 학생 스스로 미적분 문제를 해결할 수 있는지와 그 과정에서 학생이 경험하는 수학학습 성취에 대한 탐구로 진행되었다. 학생들은 주어진 미적분 문제를 3일 동안 몰입적 사고를 적용하여 풀었다. 그 결과 2명이 스스로 해결하였고 7명이 힌트를 받고 해결하였다. 연구 결과 상당수의 학생이 장시간의 몰입적인 사고를 통하여 배우지 않은 문제들을 스스로의 능력으로 해결할 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 이 과정에서 학생들의 수학적 사고력이 발달되었고 학생들은 수학하는 즐거움과 성취감을 경험했을 것으로 기대되었다. 본 연구 결과는 몰입적 사고를 도입함으로써 교실에서 학생들 스스로 문제를 푸는 교수법의 개발에 하나의 가능성을 제시하였다고 볼 수 있으며 몰입을 통한 훈련으로 수학적 사고력 발달을 통한 실제 문제해결력에도 기여할 수 있음을 시사하고 있다.

High powered computers and engineering computer systems allow designers to routinely simulate complex physical phenomena. The presented work deals with the analysis of two finite element method optimization techniques (First Order Method-FOM and Subproblem Approximation Method-SAM) implemented in the individual Design Optimization module in the Ansys software to analyze the behavior of real problems. A design optimization is a difficult mathematical process, intended to find the minimum or maximum of an objective function, which is mostly based on iterative procedure. Using optimization techniques in engineering designs requires detailed knowledge of the analyzed problem but also an ability to select the appropriate optimization method. The methods embedded in advanced computer software are based on different optimization techniques and their efficiency is significantly influenced by the specific character of a problem. The efficiency, robustness and accuracy of the methods are studied through strictly convex two-dimensional optimization problem, which is represented by volume minimization of two bars' plane frame structure subjected to maximal vertical displacement limit. Advantages and disadvantages of the methods are described and some practical tips provided which could be beneficial in any efficient engineering design by using an optimization method.

This paper presents an original approach for solving short-term power scheduling in extended power system with two fuels in a unit and a limited fuel using Lagrangian relaxations. The underlying model incorporates the full set of costs and constraints including setup, production, ramping, and operational status, and takes the form of a mixed integer nonlinear control problem. Moreover, the mathematical model developed includes two fuels in a unit and a limited fuel, regulation reserve requirements of prespecified group of units. Lagrangian relaxation is used to disaggregate the model by generator into separate subproblems which are then solved with a nested dynamic program including empirical knowledges. The strength of the methodology lies partially in its ability to construct good feasible solutions from information provided by the dual. Thus, the need for branch-and-bound is eliminated. In addition, the inclusion of two fuels in a unit and a limited fuel provides new insight into the limitations of current techniques. Computational experience with the proposed algorithm indicates that Problems containing up to 23 units including 8 unit used two fuels and 24 time periods can be readily solved in reasonable times. Duality gaps of less than 4％ were achieved.

The objectives of the current study are on the practical use of geoboard in an elementary school class. To do this, we first investigate how come geoboard is significant in a practical use. Second, we present an example of practical use of geoboard connecting with the analysis of the 7th curriculum. Third, we investigate the results of geoboard which is applied to elementary school class. The results of this research are as follows: First, the instruction of using geoboard can give an interest and curiosity to all students. Second, right triangle, rectangle, square and so on can be easily constructed because geoboard is linked by dots. Third, by constructing figures on geoboard and comparing figures which is made by themselves, students could better understand the concept of figures rather than the explanation of teacher. fourth, students can be improved the ability of problem solving and spatial sense by providing experience for exploration. Fifth, students need not to have anxiety for error because geoband is used and so can be corrected easily.
