The direction of recent education literature points to the importance of creativity and creative practices, which also plays an important role in character education and has been recognized as being invaluable for the educational goals of the 21st century. As such, the goal of mathematics educators and researchers has also been on emphasizing the importance of building character and promoting creative practices. In this research, we study the pedagogical measures that can be easily implemented in classrooms to foster creative mathematical thinking and practices in students. In particular, the mathematical topic of interest is three-dimensional geometry, and especially polygons, and processes in which mathematical knowledge and creative practices play out in classrooms. For example, we explore how these creative lessons can be organized as the target internalization lessons, concepts definition lessons, regularity and relationship lessons, question posing lessons, and narrative story lessons. All of these lessons share three commonalities: 1) they require specific planning and execution challenges in order to achieve creative tasks, 2) they take advantage of open-ended problems, and 3) they are activity-oriented. Through this study, we hope to further our understanding on successful creative mathematical educational practices in the field of mathematics education, and help establish model lessons and materials for teachers and educators to use towards such goals.

In this paper, we report the types of teaching moves a mathematics teacher educator attempted in his teaching of third-grade students at an urban elementary school in South Korea over two months. We analyze the lesson videos to find the patterns of teaching moves and speculate the link between the teaching and students' mathematical proficiencies recommended in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practices. Closely related teaching moves to the students' development of a certain mathematical proficiency would imply the exemplary practices that teachers-both inservice and preservice teachers-can implement in their classrooms.

Although student-centered teaching practices have been advocated in mathematics education reform, implementing them at the classroom level remains challenging. This exploratory case study examined two unevenly successful student-centered approaches to see how teachers understand and characterize reform, and to articulate issues in implementing reform ideas. The comparison and contrast between the classrooms showed similar classroom social norms but dramatically different mathematical practices. This affords the possibility of exploring the challenges of reform for teachers and other personnel who are attempting to move teaching practices towards the student-centered ideals.

This study examines how open-ended tasks can be implemented with the support of redefined learning goals and teaching practices from a student-centered perspective. In order to apply open-ended tasks, learning goals should be adopted by individual student's cognitive levels in the classroom context rather than by designated goals from curriculum. Equitable opportunities to share children's mathematical ideas are also attainable through flexible management of lesson-time. Eventually, students can foster their meta-cognition in the process of abstraction of what they've learned through discussions facilitated by teachers. A pedagogical implication for professional development is that teachers need to improve additional teaching practices such as how to tailor tasks relevant to their classroom context and how to set norms for students to appreciate peer's mathematical ideas in the discussions.

Research shows that formative assessment has a more powerful effect on student learning than summative assessment. This case study of an 8th grade algebra classroom focuses on how the implementation of Formative Assessment Lessons (FALs) and the participation in teacher learning communities related to FALs changed in the teacher's instructional practices, over the course of a year, to promote students' mathematical reasoning and justification. Two classroom observations are analyzed to identify how the teacher elicited and built on students' mathematical reasoning, and how the teacher prompted students to respond to and develop one another's mathematical ideas. Findings show that the teacher solicited students' reasoning more often as the academic year progressed, and students also began developing mathematical reasoning in meaningful ways, such as articulating their mathematical thinking, responding to other students' reasoning, and building on those ideas leading by the teacher. However, findings also show that teacher change in teaching practices is complicated and intertwined with various dimensions of teacher development. This study contributes to the understanding of changes in teaching practices, which has significant implications for teacher professional development and frameworks for investigating teacher learning.

In this paper, we articulate what is a lesson for all learners with different cognitive levels and what kind of teaching practices are required to implement this type of lesson. For all learners' own sense-making, open-ended tasks are the primary sources to bring their various mathematical ideas. These tasks can be meaningfully implemented by appropriate teaching practices: providing enough time (for thinking deeply and for preparing a reply), acting intentionally (alternative wrapping up activities and appointment of a struggling student), and cultivating collaborative classroom norms (respecting peer's thinking and learning from peers). This exploratory study has the potential to help practitioners and researchers understand the complexity of the work of teaching and clarify how to deal with such complexity.

The goal of this study is to explore productive ways to engage students in groupwork using dynamic geometry tasks in online synchronous classroom environments. In particular, we aim to understand the social, mathematical, and technological aspects of student collaboration in virtual spaces. We analyzed how three online groups of students collaboratively worked on dynamic geometry tasks of exploring interactive kaleidoscope applets in Desmos and producing visual representations and written descriptions of geometric transformations used in the applets. The students shared their screens in Zoom as they shared their findings and discussed how to draw and write to represent the kaleidoscopes. We identified three emerging practices of the students collaboratively working on dynamic geometry tasks in online synchronous environments: (a) drawing in response, (b) co-construction, and (c) writing in real time. The emergent practices captured how students socially interacted with others, engaged in mathematical processes, and utilized technology tools. We also discuss inequity in students' participation in collaborative practices in an online environment and possible ways to ensure equitable learning opportunities for online students.

본 연구는 2009 개정 교육과정에서 그 중요성이 강조되었으며 새로운 2015 교육과정의 개정에서 확대 적용이 예상되는 수학적 과정이 수학 교과서에 구현된 정도를 확인하고 그 내용에 있어서 보완이 요구되는 요소를 추출하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 2009 개정 수학과 교육과정의 수학적 과정과 미국의 CCSSM의 수학적 실천의 비교를 통해 공통 요소와 차이나는 요소를 파악함으로써 우리나라 학교수학에 추가적으로 필요한 수학적 과정 요소를 탐색하고, 현행 초등학교 4학년 수학 교과서를 대상으로 수학적 과정에 있으나 구현되지 않은 수학적 실천 요소 또는 수학적 과정이 아니지만 구현된 수학적 실천 요소에 대해서 분석하였다. 각각에 대한 분석 결과를 제시하고, 그에 따른 논의로부터 교육과정 개정 및 수학 교과서 개발시 수학적 과정의 보완 및 구현을 위한 시사점을 제안한다.
