There has been an increasing concern of how mathematical idea indicates and shares in a way to promote students' mathematical development. Such ideas highlighting need of the culture of mathematics classroom in mathematical education. The culture of mathematics classroom was constructed classroom social norms, sociomathematical norms, and classroom mathematical practice. This paper investigated how sociomathematical norms were constructed in two elementary mathematics classrooms by two different teachers.

In this study, we suggest the standards for future mathematics classroom from environment, teachers, and students aspects. Future mathematics classroom should have the three environmental standards that perform responsible roles and appropriate functions of physical resources and classroom space. In the teacher standards' domain, we presented as a total of eight kinds. Concretely, we proposed the four standards for improvement of mathematical teacher's instructional expertise and the four standards for improvement of abilities of learners. The students standards consist of 4 domain a such as 3 standards of mathematical investigation and problem solving, 3 standards of cooperation and communication, 1 standard of utilization and operation of mathematical technologies and learning support systems, 2 standard of digital ethics and citizenship. Also, we developed the mathematical convergence instruction model and reported the results of its application after the lessons conducted in the classroom equipped with advanced environmental and technologies. We presented the convergence instruction model and scenarios focused on thoughts and actions of teachers and students in the future mathematics classroom.

The purpose of this study is to search whether mathematical beliefs have changed when new social norms are formed in math classroom through research using survey papers about mathematical beliefs and math class video photographing. In addition, it would search for social norms of mathematical classroom which affects to students' mathematical beliefs by analyzing culture of mathematical classroom. The result was that the class focusing only general social norms wasn't enough to change students' mathematical beliefs. And as we have examined sociomathematical norms of math classroom through analyzing culture of mathematics classroom, it has affected students' mathematical beliefs.

This study is to make strides toward an enriched understanding of changing a prevailing teacher-centered mathematics classroom culture to a student-centered culture by analyzing six reform-oriented classrooms of three elementary school teachers throughout a year This study provided a detailed description of important classroom episodes to explore how the participants in each class established a reform-oriented mathematics microculture. Despite the exemplary form of student-centered instruction, the content and qualities of the teaching practices are somewhat different in the extent to which students' ideas become the center of mathematical discourse and activity. Given the similarities in terms of general social norms and the differences in terms of socio-mathematical norms and mathematical practice, this study addresses some crucial issues on understanding the culture of elementary mathematics classroom in transition.

The main purpose of this study is to classify types of class using computer in the school mathematics classroom. For this purpose, we will first survey the Tyle's theory relate to the curriculum model and its details. Then we will investigate the crucial points using computer in the school mathematics classroom in the viewpoint of Glaser's teaching model. From this, we will device several types of mathematics class using computer.

In this study we explored the effect of reading in mathematics classroom on five mathematical affective characteristics of middle school students. 100 2nd male middle schoolers' were participated in this study and five affective characteristics - interests, self-confidence, recognition of mathematics value, self-regulation, and mathematics anxiety- were investigated. According to the results, reading in mathematics class had an overall positive effect. Especially the characteristics interests and self-confidence of students' were improved. And for the low level students all characteristics were improved. And based on the result of pre and post test, and interview with 6 students, we suggest that desirable reading in mathematics classroom.

In this research, the PBL program was developed in terms of 'classroom practice ability', 'self-develop ability', and 'teaching profession character' which classroom friendly teachers get ready and was applied to the classroom friendly elementary mathematics teachers for studying the effectiveness of the program. From the result elementary preservice teachers' disposition in terms of thought about mathematics, mathematics learning, and mathematics teaching was changed to the positive direction through the PBL. They could developed their classroom practice ability, self-develop ability, and teaching profession character through application of new knowledge and plan for problem solving and reflection after solving the problems.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of mathematics instruction for the formation of mathematics classroom culture on cognitive and affective domains of elementary school students. Two classes of 3rd grade elementary school in Seoul were chosen for the study. Twenty math classes were conducted, discussing the norms and using mathematical communication and journal writing activity was carried out. A mathematical achievement evaluation was performed for the inspection of the cognitive domains and a mathematical aptitude test was performed for the inspection of the affective domains. Research has shown that the mathematics classroom culture have a positive effect on the development of students' cognitive and affective domains. In particular, in the course of forming a mathematical classroom culture, students showed a change in the affective domain of a mathematics. Based on these findings, a change in teacher's perception of the importance of mathematics is needed and a variety of circumstances surrounding the students suggested the formation of a mathematical classroom culture.

Teaching and learning mathematics in a classroom setting is based on the interactions between the teacher and her students. Using classroom observations and interviews of students and the teacher, this research examines a first-year teacher and her students' interactions in the mathematics classroom. In this mathematics classroom, teacher and students interaction had inconsistency between mathematical topics and non-mathematical topics. For non-mathematical topics, their interactions were very active but for mathematical topics their interactions were very limited. This paper ends with raising questions for future research and calling for the opportunities for first-year teachers to reflect on their interactions with their students, in particular about mathematical topics.

One of remarkable characteristics of 2007 revised mathematics national curriculum is the emphasis of communication in classroom. It does not mean only listening students' comments. In other words, it is different from presentation of individuals' thoughts. In the paper, teaching and learning practices required teachers who want to establish classroom culture supporting harmonious communication in mathematics instruction.
