  • Student engagement in high-level, cognitively demanding instruction is pivotal for student learning. However, many teachers are unable to maintain such instruction, especially in instances of non-responsive students. This case study of three middle school teachers explores prompts that aim to move classroom discussions past student silence. Prompt sequences were categorized into Progressing, Focusing, and Redirecting Actions, and then analyzed for maintenance of high levels of cognitive demand. Results indicate that specific prompt types are prone to either raise or diminish the cognitive demand of a discussion. While Focusing Actions afforded students opportunities to process information on a more meaningful level, Progressing Actions typically lowered cognitive demand in an effort to get through mathematics content or a specific method or procedure. Prompts that raise cognitive demand typically start out as procedural or concrete and progress to include students' thoughts or ideas about mathematical concepts. This study aims to discuss five specific implications on how teachers can use prompting techniques to effectively maintain cognitively challenging discourse through moments of student silence.

  • This paper describes how communicative technology between two classrooms located in different sociocultural contexts was used to support mathematics instruction. I analyzed what interactions emerged using the communicative technology, how sociocultural differences were leveraged to construct mathematical knowledge, and how students built this knowledge together across urban and rural classrooms. The results show that reciprocal interactions emerged. Teachers co-designed lesson plans and tasks with consideration of the different classroom social contexts. Based on those teachers' interactions, students had opportunities to justify their ideas and to prepare answers before the connected discussions, and a wide spectrum of ideas was synthesized as collaborative knowledge. These findings suggest that communicative technology has the potential to enhance learning opportunities for students across different social contexts.

  • We witness now the changing techno-economic paradigm and the emerging learning economy. Reflecting on these changes, the group of Evolutionary Economists study recently the theory on regional innovation system, but their research results are still now not theoretically ‘systemized’. Moreover, they often indeed speak of the ‘social capital’, but do not investigate that. This paper tries to systemize their empirical findings and theoretical results and integrate the discussions on social capital in fields of sociology into a mathematical model. This study emphasizes the role of social capital in the innovating process.

  • 본 연구는 학습자 스스로 수학적 오류를 분석하고 반성적 문제 만들기 활동을 하도록 한 것이 문제해결력과 수학적 태도에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 것이다. 본 연구를 위하여 서울특별시 강서구에 소재한 초등학교 5학년 2개 반(62명)을 대상으로 실험집단과 비교집단을 선정하였다. 연구 결과 반성적 문제 만들기 활동은 학생들로 하여금 구하고자 하는 것을 파악하는 능력과 문제를 해결하는데 필요한 조건을 선별하여 활용하는 능력을 향상시켜 학생들의 문제해결력 향상에 효과적이었다. 또한, 학습자가 가지고 있었던 수학적 오개념을 수정하고 올바른 수학적 개념을 정립하는데 도움을 주었다. 그리고 반성적 문제 만들기 활동은 학생들의 수학적 의지를 향상시키고 반성적 사고를 촉진시키며, 반성의 과정에서 자연스럽게 스스로 자신의 문제를 풀이 과정을 점검하는 습관을 갖도록 하는데 도움을 주었다. 학습자는 반성적 문제가 올바르게 만들어졌는지 점검하고 이것을 바르게 해결하기 위해, 토의 활동에서 타인과의 수학적 의사소통에 적극적으로 참여하는 모습과 함께 끝까지 스스로 문제를 해결하고자 하는 과제집착력을 강하게 나타냈다.

  • This case study contributes to the efforts on identifying the essential features of responsive teaching practice where students' mathematical thinking is central in instructional interactions. We firstly conceptualize responsive teaching as a type of teachers' instructional decisions based on noticing literature, and agree on the claim which teachers' responsive decisions should be accounted in classroom interactional contexts where teacher, students and content are actively interacting with each other. Building on this responsive teaching model, we analyze classroom observation data of a 7th grade teacher who implemented a lesson package specifically designed to respond to students' mathematical thinking, called Formative Assessment Lessons. Our findings suggest the characteristics of responsive teaching practice and identify the relationship between noticing and responsive teaching as: (a) noticing on students' current status of mathematical thinking by eliciting and anticipating, (b) noticing on students' potential conceptual development with follow-up questions, and (c) noticing for all students' conceptual development by orchestrating productive discussions. This study sheds light on the actual teachable moments in the practice of mathematics teachers and explains what, when and how to support teachers to improve their classroom practice focusing on supporting all students' mathematical conceptual development.

  • In this article we study a reconstruction of mathematical knowledge on trigonometry by the method of ascent from the abstract to the concrete from the pedagogical viewpoint of dialectic. The direction of education is shifting in a way that emphasizes the active constitution of knowledge by the learning subjects from the perspective that knowledge is transferred from the teacher to the student. In mathematics education, active discussions on the construction of mathematical knowledge by learners have been going on since the late 1990s. In Korea, concepts and aspects of constructivism such as operational constructivism, radical constructivism, and social constructivism were introduced. However, examples of practical construction according to the direction of construction of mathematical knowledge are very hard to find. In this study, we discuss the direction of the actual construction of mathematical knowledge and suggest a concrete example of the actual construction of trigonometry knowledge from a constructivist point of view. In particular, we discuss the process of the construction of theoretical knowledge, the ascent from the abstract to the concrete, based on the literature study from the pedagogical viewpoint of dialectic, and show how to construct the mathematical knowledge on trigonometry by the method of ascent from the abstract to the concrete. Through this study, it is expected to introduce the new direction and new method of knowledge construction as 'the ascent from the abstract to the concrete', and to present the possibility of applying dialectic concepts to mathematics education.

  • It is well-known that the most interesting non-integrable almost Hermitian manifold are the nearly Kaehlerian manifolds ([2] and [3]), and that there exists a complex but not a Kaehlerian structure on Riemannian product manifolds of two normal contact manifolds [4]. The purpose of the present paper is to study nearly Kaehlerian product manifolds of two almost contact metric manifolds and investigate the geometrical structures of these manifolds. Unless otherwise stated, we shall always assume that manifolds and quantities are differentiable of class $C^{\infty}$. In Paragraph 1, we give brief discussions of almost contact metric manifolds and their Riemannian product manifolds. In paragraph 2, we investigate the perfect conditions for Riemannian product manifolds of two almost contact metric manifolds to be nearly Kaehlerian and the non-existence of a nearly Kaehlerian product manifold of contact metric manifolds. Paragraph 3 will be devoted to a proof of the following; A conformally flat compact nearly Kaehlerian product manifold of two almost contact metric manifolds is isomatric to a Riemannian product manifold of a complex projective space and a flat Kaehlerian manifold..

  • The notion of probabilistic metric spaces (or statistical metric spaces) was introduced and studied by Menger [19] which is a generalization of metric space, and the study of these spaces was expanede rapidly with the pioneering works of Schweizer-Sklar [25]-[26]. The theory of probabilistic metric spaces is of fundamental importance in probabilistic function analysis. For the detailed discussions of these spaces and their applications, we refer to [9], [10], [28], [30]-[32], [36] and [39].

  • The aim of this paper is twofold. Firstly, we introduce the concept of semi-partial isometry in a Banach algebra and carry out a comparison and a classification study for this concept. In particular, we show that in the context of $C^*$-algebras this concept coincides with the notion of partial isometry. Our results encompass several earlier ones concerning partial isometries in Hilbert spaces, Banach spaces and $C^*$-algebras. Finally, we study the notion of (m, p)-semi partial isometries.

  • An accurate evaluation of educational process is a promise for the progress of education, because evaluation provides a meticulous idea of what has actually been achieved as a result of education. However, for all its significance in the educational fields, there are not many discussions about evaluation in South Korea. We believe that in order to overcome this discrepancy, diverse evaluation theories along with a discussion about the merits or demerits or each theory should be introduced in South Korea. We propose that Eisner's educational evaluation model may suggest alternative ways of perceiving evaluation. Eisner's educational evaluation model, named educational connoisseurship and criticism, emerged as an approach to educational evaluation from the methods used in art and literary criticism.
