Although ‘to understand mathematics’ is an important educational purpose, most student do not have a relational understanding of the basic concept of mathematics but have a instrumental understanding. This paper will investigate the possibility of using computers for enhancing relational understanding. In the ‘Qualitative case study’, three students who are in the first grade at E-High school took part in 7 activities during four weeks, and were later interviewed and engaged in informal discussion and were observed. This is the result of this study. 1. The three students were passive participants in mathematics problem solving situation at school. Therefore, student B just applied formulas which she had memorized, and student C would forgot the formulas occasionally. These common students needed to participate actively in doing mathematics. 2. The activities utilized two software healing with connection between graphs and function, giving the students the opportunity to plan, practice, and test by themselves. As a result, they understood the mathematical formulas and rules more deeply through their own trial and error, and then they gained thinking abilities necessary for doing mathematics. In addition, the activities boosted their confidence. 3. The understanding type of students was slightly different. Student A who received a high score, understood the most relationally, but student B who received a very high score, understood instrumentally and so couldn't app1y her knowledge to solving problems related to function concept. Student C who received a middle score lacked knowledge of mathematics but thought more creatively. The result is that students need an opportunity to think rotationally regardless of score. Therefore, this study concludes that using computer software will provide a positive effect for relational understanding in loaming function concept.

본 연구의 목적은 예비교사들이 함수 개념을 도입하는 수업을 설계할 때 함수 개념의 어떤 측면을 강조하여 지도하는지를 분석하여 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위해 예비교사 중 한 명의 발표자(예비교사 A)가 수행한 가상 수업과 동료 예비교사 10명(예비교사 A1~A10)이 이 수업에 대해 반성한 내용을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 예비교사들은 과정과 대응의 관점으로 함수 개념을 도입하는 것이 우세하였고, 변화와 종속성 관점으로 도입하는 경우는 극히 드물었다. 또한 예비교사들이 함수 도입에서 강조하는 측면은 상황·언어적 표현, 표, 그래프, 식, 그림 등과 같이 함수를 표현하는 양식과 밀접하게 관련됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 2015 개정 교육과정에 제시된 종속적인 변화 관계에 기반하여 함수 개념을 도입하기 위한 예비교사 교육 및 연구에 시사점을 제시하는 하나의 경험적 근거자료가 될 것으로 사료된다.

The radical development of modern mathematics is due to the appearance of Collection Theory by George Cantor. The Set Theory is independent as an area and also closely interrelated with other areas. So its content becomes a common sense and a basic part across the whole area of modern mathematics. Accordingly, the basic element of modern mathematics is helping young children get familiar with set as early as possible. The thinking of set by which children can categorize, make partial sets and correspondences, understand the general characteristic, and conceptualize the discovered relationships is very important for young children. At this point where the Math education for young children is emphasized under the influence of the modernization movement of Math education, the systematic education for building up the set concept as the basic background of number concept during the early childhood is required. On current mathematics education for young children, graphs, the foundation of geometry, time, and patterns have been included in the traditional and practical content related to numbers. However, the education on collection which is the foundation of number concept is insufficient. A study shows that the level of young children's understanding on set is quite high, but the set concept isn't reflected in current Math curriculum for young children. And basic activities neccesary on building up the set concept, such as categorization, comparison, etc. are conducted in kindergardens but unsatisfactory because of those kindergarden teachers' premature understanding on the set concept. In conclusion, the curriculum for young children should be reorganized based on the set concept as the kernel concept. Also, the reappraisal of the training curriculum and the supplementary efucation for kindergarden teachers are urgent for raising the teaching ability of those kindergarden teachers.

The current mathematical education calls for a learning environment from the constructionism perspective that actively creates mathematical objects. This research first analyzes JavaMAL's expression 'move' that enables students to express the agent's behavior constructively before they learn vector as a formal concept. Since expression 'move' is based on a coordinate, it naturally corresponds with the expression of vectors used in school mathematics and lets students take an embodied approach to the concept of vector. Furthermore, as a design tool, expression 'move' can be used in various activities that include vector structure. This research studies the educational significance entailed in JavaMAL's expression 'move'.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of double fuzzy preproximity spaces as a generalization of a fuzzy preproximity spaces and investigate some of their properties. Also we study the relationships between double fuzzy preproximity spaces, double fuzzy topological spaces and double fuzzy closure spaces. In addition to this was the introduction of the concept of double fuzzy neighborhood system and has been studying the connection with double fuzzy preproximity, which resulted in the definition of the concept double fuzzy preproximal neighborhood.

One of the most important aims in mathematics education is to enhance students' problem-solving abilities. To achieve this aim, in real school classrooms, many educators have examined and developed effective teaching methods, learning strategies, and practical problem-solving techniques. Among those trials, it is noticeable that Engel, Zeits, Shapiro and other not a few mathematicians emphasized 'Invariance Principle' as a mean of solving problems. This study is to consider the basic concept of 'Invariance Principle', analyze 'Invariance' concept in secondary Mathematics contents on the basis of framework of 'Invariance Principle' shown by Shapiro and discuss some instructional issues to occur in the process of it.

This research is a study on student's understanding fundamental concepts of mathematical curriculum, especially in geometry domain. The goal of researching is to analyze student's concepts about that domain and get the mathematical teaching methods. We developed various questions of descriptive assessment. Then we set up the term, procedure of research for the understanding student's knowledge of geometric figures. And we analyze the student's understanding extent through investigating questions of descriptive assessment. In this research, we concluded that most of students are having difficulty with defining the fundamental concepts of mathematics, especially in geometry. Almost all the students defined the fundamental conceptions of mathematics obscurely and sometimes even missed indispensable properties. And they can't distinguish between concept definition and concept image. Prior to this study, we couldn't identify this problem. Here are some suggestions. First, take time to reflect on your previous mathematics method. And then compile some well-selected questions of descriptive assessment that tell us more about student's understanding in geometric concepts.

In order to educate future leaders of the new age, we should help students to increase their basic knowledge, thinking and problem solving ability. It is necessary that we should use multi-media, computer as well as old teaching-learning material to improve students' basic knowledge and to motivate their interest in mathematics in the small-sized Middle School situated on the agricultural and fishery village. In solving this problem, it is ultimately necessary that we should utilize CAI program on the learning achievement in mathematics for the students to understand basic concept, principle, law and to promote teaching-learning process considered on individual different abilities. Therefore, this study is on the effect of students' interest and learning achievement in mathematics when we develop CAI program focusing on the lesson statistics in the 3rd Grade Middle School Mathematics Textbook and explain the concept and principle of statistics through using exact and various techniques of computers

본 연구는 중학교 시기에 학생들이 처음 접하는 수인 무리수에 대한 지도내용을 상세히 살펴보고 이에 따른 지도 방법에 의해서 무리수를 지도할 때 학생들이 무리수의 개념을 어느 수준으로 어느 정도 이해하고 있는지 또 어느 수준의 이해가 어려운지를 확인하여 보고, 무리수 개념을 어떻게 이해하고 있는지를 확인하여봄으로써 이러한 결과에 의한 무리수 지도시의 문제점을 찾아보고 이를 개선할 수 있는 지도 방안을 모색하여, 무리수를 지도할 때 무리수 개념에 관한 학습자들의 이해를 고려하여 지도할 수 있는 토대를 마련한다.
