The purpose of this study is to investigate the international trends of how the core competencies are reflected in mathematics curriculum, and to find the implications for the revision of Korean mathematics curriculum. For this purpose, the curriculum of the 9 countries including the U.S., Canada(Ontario), England, Australia, Poland, Singapore, China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong were thoroughly reviewed. It was found that a variety of core competencies were reflected in mathematics curricula in the 9 countries such as problem solving, reasoning, communication, mathematical knowledge and skills, selection and use of tools, critical thinking, connection, modelling, application of strategies, mathematical thinking, representation, creativity, utilization of information, and reflection etc. Especially the four most common core competencies (problem solving, reasoning, communication, and creativity) were further analyzed to identify their sub components. Consequently, it was recommended that new mathematics curriculum should consider reflecting various core competencies beyond problem solving, reasoning, and communication, and these core competencies are supposed to combine with mathematics contents to increase their feasibility. Finally considering the fact that software education is getting greater attention in the new curriculum, it is necessary to incorporate computational thinking into mathematics curriculum.

Researchers have employed a diversity of definitions and measurement methods for creativity. As a result, creativity research is underrepresented in the literature and the findings of different studies often prove difficult to draw into a coherent body of understanding. With regard to assessment, there are some important problems both in creativity research and practice, such as originality bias and Big-C creativity bias in teachers' perceptions about creativity and creative thinking, and additive rather than multiplicative scoring systems of creativity assessment. Drawing upon most widely accepted conceptions of the creativity construct, I defined 'student's scientific creativity' as the ability to make a product both original and useful to the student in terms of little-c creativity, and 'scientist's scientific creativity' as the ability to come up with a product both original and useful to the science community in terms of Big-C creativity. In this study, an 'Assessment Formula for Scientific Creativity' was developed, which is consisted of the multiplication of originality and usefulness scores rather than the sum of the two scores, and then, with scores calculated from the assessment formula, the scientific explanations generated by children were categorized into four types: routine, useful, original, and creative types. The assessment formula was revealed to be both valid and reliable. The implications of the assessment formula for scientific creativity are examined. The new assessment formula may contribute to the comprehensive understanding of scientific creativity to guide future research and the appropriate interpretation of previous studies.

The purpose of this study was to develop children's creativity by applying creative problem solving model to elementary school science. Creative problem solving(CPS), the theoretical frame of model is proposed by Treffinger et al.(1994). CPS model is based on a substantial foundation of theory and research about creativity and problem solving. It is a well organized, deliberate set of methods you can call upon whenever you need new ideas or solutions and a process anyone can use to deal with many of life's everyday problems, opportunities, and challenges. CPS consists of three components. Within these three components, there are six specific stages during which creative and critical thinking abilities are used in harmony. Each stage involves both divergent and convergent thinking. The study was conducted for six week during the 1998 two semester in A elementary school which is located in Incheon. Eighty three 2nd grade students are selected for this study. The students were divided into two groups--experimental group and control group. The experimental group were taught in applying the CPS model, and the control group were taught by the traditional manner. Data for this study were collected by questionnaire which were developed by this researcher, and were analyzed by SPSSWIN 8.0. The results of this study were as follows: There was a significant difference on creativity between the instruction by applying CPS model and the traditional instruction. There was also gender differences on creativity between two groups. On fluency and flexibility as components of creativity, there was a signigicant difference between two groups. In conclusion, the instruction by applying CPS model was more effective in developing children's creativity than the traditional instruction.

과학-기술-사회에서의 창의력 교육은 창의적 사고의 과정과 과학적 지식 발달 이론에 근거하여 기존의 창의력 개발 교육보다 진일보한 방식으로 이루어져야 할 것이며 영재아를 위한 창의력 개발 교육의 구체적인 방안과 실천이 요구되고 있다. Wallas, Weisberg 등의 의해 창의적 사고 과정에 대한 논의가 이루어져 왔으나 최근 Finke 등에 의해 창의적 사고과정으로서 ‘생성단계’와 ‘탐구단계’로 구성된 GENEPLORE 사고 과정이 제안되었다. 또한, 창의력은 기반 지식의 영향으로 발휘된다는 연구들이 대두되어 왔음에도 불구하고, 지식발달론에 근거한 창의력 교육 문제는 논의 수준에 그치고 있다. Piaget(1977), Gallagher(1981) 등은 지식발달이 경험적 추상과 반성적 추상의 과정에 기초하여 이루어지고 있음을 이론적 및 실증적으로 규명해 낸 바 있으며 최근 인지과학 분야의 연구성과는 지식발달의 과정을 다루는데 초점 맞추어지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 컴퓨터, 네트웍, 바이오텍, 로봇, E-비즈니스, E-교육, E-건강, 나노텍, 오락 등의 과학-기술-사회 주제를 중심으로 영재아를 위한 ‘개인과 창의적 사고 방법 및 사횔 및 과학기술을 통합적으로 다루는 창의적 사고 모형을 개발’하였으며, 구체적인 프로그램 내용구성을 소개하였다.

The purpose of this study is to explore characteristics of engineering students' everyday creativity compared with those of undergraduate students. For this, we investigated whether there were differences in undergraduates' everyday creativity according to majors, gender and grade. Everyday creativity can be defined as thinking and activities producing useful and suitable personal products, and to solve problems in a new and unique ways. Thus everyday creativity is reported to be universal ability creative people can express in their everyday life. Eight hundred and fifty seven students from three universities in three Korean regions responded to Everyday Creativity Scale. Our findings show that firstly, there were significant differences in undergraduates' everyday creativity by majors and gender. Whereas there were no differences in the same survey by grade. Engineering students obtained significantly lower score of everyday creativity as well as its sub-scales. Also, there were significant differences in everyday creativity's sub-factors by gender. Based on these findings, practical implications for creativity education are discussed with particular attention to learner's individual variables.
