Infinity is one of the important concept in mathematics, science, philosophy etc. In history of mathematics, potential infinity concept conflicts with actual infinity concept. Reason that mathematicians refuse actual infinity concept during long period is because that actual infinity concept causes difficulty in our perceptions. This phenomenon is called epistemological obstacle by Brousseau. Potential infinity concept causes difficulty like history of development of infinity concept in mathematics learning. Even though students team about actual infinity concept, they use potential infinity concept in problem solving process. Therefore, we must make clear epistemological obstacles of infinity concept and must overcome them in learning of infinity concept. For this, it is useful to experience visualization about infinity concept. Also, it is to develop meta-cognition ability that students analyze and control their problem solving process. Conclusively, students must adjust potential infinity concept, and understand actual infinity concept that is defined in formal mathematics system.

The concept field is defined as the schema of all equivalent definitions of a mathematics concept. Concept system is defined as the schema of a group concept network where there are mathematics relations. Proposition field is defined as the schema of all equivalent proposition sets. Proposition system is defined as a schema of proposition sets where one mathematics proposition at least is "derived" from the other proposition. CPFS structure that consists of concept field, concept system proposition field, proposition system describes more precisely mathematics cognitive structure, and reveals the unique psychological phenomena and laws in mathematics learning.

In this paper, we tried to establish the concept of 'Mathematics for Elementary Teachers(MET)'. There are 4 kinds of Mathematics for Teachers(MT). MET is one of tried to establish the concept in contradistinction to school mathematics(SM), mathematics, and Teaching Materials(TM). We suggested the outline of MET by suggesting the parts to which SM, MTs. The concept of MET is established variously according to various views. Here, we mathematics, and TM can not approach.

Variable concept plays a crucial role in understanding not only algebra itself but also school mathematics which is algebra-oriented. It solves as an essential means in applying mathematics to the real world because il enables us to describe varying phenomena in the real world. In this study, we examined some matters related to the learning of variable concept in school mathematics. In Particular, we discussed on the teaching of variable concept in the [7-first] stage of the 7th Mathematics Curriculum. We analysed the textbooks in the [7-first] stage and attempted to explain concretely the contents and teaching methods of variable concept which be taught in school mathematics. After reconsidering the practices on variable concept teaching, we pointed out the problems of formalistic teaching method and then proposed the direction in which variable concept teaching should go.

The concept of "set" in school mathematics has undergone many changes according to the revision of curriculum and the transition of the paradigm in mathematics education. In the discipline-centered curriculum, a set was a representative concept which reflected the spirit of New Math. After the Back to Basics period, the significance of a set concept in school mathematics has been diminished. First, this paper elaborated several controversial aspects of the terms related to set, such as a collection and a set, a subset, and an empty set. In addition, the changes of the significance imposed to a set concept in school mathematics were investigated. Finally, this paper provided two alternative approaches to introduce and explain a set concept which emphasized both mathematical rigor and learner's psychology.

본 논문은 학교수학에서 다루어지고 있는 매개변수 개념의 교수-학습에 관한 논의이다. 우리나라 수학교과서에서 매개변수 개념은 중학교 수준의 학습내용과 관련된 대수적 표현에서 자주 다루어지고 있음에도 불구하고 그 개념에 대한 용어 정의는 고등학교 선택교육과정 교과서에서 비로소 도입되고 있기 때문에 매개변수개념 이해를 위한 수학교사의 교수학적 노력이 요망된다. 본 논문에서는 학교현장에서 매개변수 개념의 지도를 위한 교수학적 시사점을 이끌어 내기 위해 매개변수의 개념 정의를 분석하고 우리나라 수학과 교육과정상에서 매개변수가 도입되는 맥락을 외국의 사례와 비교해서 검토한다. 또한 선행연구를 통해 대수학습의 관점에서 매개변수 개념 이해의 중요성을 확인하고 매개변수 개념이 학교수학에서 의미 있게 다루어져야 할 학습맥락에 대해 논의해 본다. 마지막으로 본 논문의 연구내용을 종합하여 매개변수 개념의 교수-학습을 위한 시사점을 요약하여 제시한다.

Infinity is very important concept in mathematics. In history of mathematics, potential infinity concept conflicts with actual infinity concept for a long time. It is reason that actual infinity concept causes difficulty in our perceptions. This phenomenon is called epistemological obstacle by Brousseau. So, in this paper, we examine the infinity in terms of mathematical didactics. First, we examine the history of development of infinity and reveal the similarity between the history of debate about infinity and episternological obstacle of students. Next, we investigate obstacle of students about infinity and the contents of curriculum which treat the infinity Finally, we suggest the methods for overcoming obstacle in learning of infinity concept.

As a researcher engaged in the mathematical education, mathematics teachers are interested in instructional methods. While it is unlikely that the viewpoints of individual mathematics teachers are reflected in making decisions on instructional purposes and instructional contents, a good many parts of instructional methods on mathematical facts are decided by individual teachers. This means that the role of mathematics teachers is given much weight in the mathematical education. Therefore, the mathematics teachers must not be excluded in all parts of the study of mathematical education. We studied the instructional methods of function concept, a central topic in school mathematics from the following perspectives. First, we examined the characteristics of the three(correspondence-centered, middle, dependence centered) viewpoints about the essence of function concept. And we should that which of them should be the viewpoint of instruction of function concept in school mathematics. Second, we investigated the questions regarding the process of function instruction in school mathematics and presented alternative instruction methods of function concept to solve the questions. Third, we postulated the importance of polynomial function, relating college mathematics in order to present the reason why the polynomial function is importantly treated in functional instruction of school mathematics.

이 연구에서는 2015 개정 교육과정에 따른 초등학교 1~2학년 수학 교과서 어휘를 등급 및 유형에 따라 분석하였다. 어휘 유형은 학습 도구어, 수학 교과 특수 개념어, 수학 교과 일반 개념어로 구분하여 분석하였다. 어휘 등급별 분석 결과, 1~2학년 수학 교과서에서는 1등급과 2등급 어휘가 대부분을 차지하고 있었다. 어휘 유형별 분석 결과, 학습 도구어 중 일부 어휘가 3등급 어휘로 나타났으며, 수학 교과 특수 개념어의 경우 미등록어이거나 1등급 어휘인 경우들이 많았다. 수학 교과 일반 개념어는 2학년 교과서에서의 빈도수가 1학년 교과서에 비해 크게 증가하였다. 이러한 결과를 기반으로 수학 교과서 어휘 지도를 위한 시사점을 제시하였다.

This paper is concerned with the mathematical concept displayed in Buddhism, which is reasonable enough to consider as a philosophy and encompasses the concept of infinity as scientific as that of mathematics. The purpose of this paper is to examine the changing process of the Buddhism concept of infinity on the basis of time sequence and to combine this with that of mathematics.
