The world we live in is called the age of information. Thus communication and computers are doing the central role in it. When one studies the mathematical problem, the use of tools such as computers, calculators and technology is available for all students, and then students are actively engaged in reasoning, communicating, problem solving, and making connections with mathematics, between mathematics and other disciplines. The use of technology extends to include computer algebra systems, spreadsheets, dynamic geometry software and the Internet and help active learning of students by analyzing data and realizing mathematical models visually. In this paper, we explain concepts of transformation, linear transformation, congruence transformation and homothety, and introduce interesting, meaningful and visual models for teaching of a plane transformation geomeoy which are obtained by using Mathematica. Moreover, this study will show how to visualize linear transformation for student's better understanding in teaching a plane transformation geometry in classroom. New development of these kinds of teaching-learning methods can simulate student's curiosity about mathematics and their interest. Therefore these models will give teachers the active teaching and also give students the successful loaming for obtaining the concept of linear transformation.

The conic sections is an important topic in the current high school geometry. It has been recognized by many researchers that high school students often have difficulty or misconception in the learning of the conic sections because they are taught the conic sections only with algebraic perspective or analytic geometry perspective. In this research, we suggest a way of teaching the conic sections using a dynamic geometry software based on some mathematics teaching and learning theories such as Freudenthal's and Dienes'. Students have various experience of constructing and manipulating the conic sections for themselves and the experience of deriving the equations of the quadratic curves under the teacher's careful guidance. We identified this approach was a feasible way to improve the teaching and learning methods of the conic sections.

The purpose of this study is to find a method to improve geometry instruction. For this purpose, I have investigated aims and problems of geometry education. I also reviewed related literature about discovery methods as well as verification. Through this review, “Mathematising teaching and learning methods” by Freudenthal is Presented as an alternative to geometry instruction. I investigated the capability of dynamic software for realization of this method. The result of this investigation is that dynamic software is a powerful tool in realizing this method. At last, I present one example of mathematic activity using dynamic software that can be used by school teachers.

This paper explored the impact of dynamic geometry software such as CabriII, GSP on student's understanding deductive justification, on the assumption that proof in school mathematics should be used in the broader, psychological sense of justification rather than in the narrow sense of deductive, formal proof. The following results have been drawn: Dynamic geometry provided positive impact on interacting between empirical justification and deductive justification, especially on understanding the necessity of deductive justification. And teacher in the computer environment played crucial role in reducing on difficulties in connecting empirical justification to deductive justification. At the beginning of the research, however, it was not the case. However, once students got intocul-de-sac in empirical justification and understood the need of deductive justification, they tried to justify deductively. Compared with current paper-and-pencil environment that many students fail to learn the basic knowledge on proof, dynamic geometry software will give more positive ffect for learning. Dynamic geometry software may promote interaction between empirical justification and edeductive justification and give a feedback to students about results of their own actions. At present, there is some very helpful computer software. However the presence of good dynamic geometry software can not be the solution in itself. Since learning on proof is a function of various factors such as curriculum organization, evaluation method, the role of teacher and student. Most of all, the meaning of proof need to be reconceptualized in the future research.

This study is to develop the methods of specifying teaching that can consider individual differences in middle school geometry education. The purpose of this study is to decide the variations causing individual differences and to find the proper learning methods considering the variations. Through literature review, this study made it clear that the matter of individual difference is just the matter of talent and examined what factors make up mathematical talents. On the basis of the result, five important variations and fourteen subordinate factors were determined. I researched into the learning methods that consider the determined subordinate factors using the 'congruence' unit of middle school textbooks and developed specific learning methods for each of the subordinate factors through specific congruence problem solving situations. This study can be summarized as follows : I researched the studies of mathematical ability conducted by several educators and psychologists. This research is divided into the early study and the developed study of mathematical ability. Through this study five specific variations were determined. And fourteen subordinate factors have been made from the determined variations. The specific learning methods based on individual differences was developed according to the fourteen subordinate factors on the basis of middle school textbooks of Korea, Gusev's textbook, problem books of Russia, and etc.

Computer has been regarded as an alternative that could overcome the difficulties in the teaching and learning of mathematics. But the didactical problems of the computer-based environment for mathematics education could give us new obstacles. In this paper, first of all, we examined the application of the learning theories of mathematics to the computer environment. If the feedbacks of the computer are too immediate, students would have less opportunity to reflect on their thinking and focus their attention on the visual aspects, which leads to the simple abstraction rather than the reflective abstraction. We also examined some other Problems related to cognitive obstacle to learn the concepts of geometric figure and the geometric knowledge. Based on the analysis on the problems related to the computer-based environment of mathematics teaching and learning, we tried to find out the direction to use computer more adequately in teaching and learning geometry.

This paper suggested a geometry learning model which relates an exploratory learning model with GSP applications, Such a model adopts GSP's capability of visualizing dynamic geometric figures and exploratory learning method's advantages of discovering properties and relations of geometric problem proving and concepts associated with geometric inferencing of students. The research was conducted for 3 middle school students by applying the proposed model for 6times at computer laboratory. The overall procedure was videotaped so that the collected data was later analyzed by qualitative methodology. The analysis indicated that the students with less than van Hiele 4 level took advantages of adoption our proposed model to gain concrete understandings of geometric principles and concepts with GSP. One of the lessons learned from this study suggested that the roles of students and a teacher who want to employ the proposed model need to change their roles respectively.

In this paper, the author analyzed characteristics of deep mathematics learning in problem solving and problem-posing classroom teaching. Based on a simple wrong plane geometry problem, the author describes the classroom experience how one expert Chinese mathematics teacher guides students to modify geometry problems from solution to investigation, and guides the students to learn how to pose mathematics problems in inquiry-based deep learning classroom. This also demonstrates how expert mathematics teacher can effectively guide students to teach deep learning in regular classroom.

The purpose of this study is to create an interactive tool Geometry Player for geometric explorations. In designing this software, we referred to van Hiele's geometric learning theory of and Duval's cognitive comprehension theory of geometric figures. With Geometry Player, it is easy to construct and manipulate dynamic geometric figures. Teachers can easily present the dynamic process of geometric figures in class, and students can use it as a leaning tool to construct geometric concepts by themselves. It is hoped that Geometry Player can be a useful assistant for teachers and a nice partner for students. A brief introduction to Geometry Player and some application examples are included in this paper.
