Mathematics curriculum reform is very important, and it can be understood well by power. This paper uses the extended Foucault's power theory as foundations to view mathematics curriculum reform. The research's case is China's ongoing mathematics curriculum reform. Through analyzing the power relationships in China's ongoing mathematics curriculum reform, the paper thinks that power's balance is very important in mathematics curriculum design, because it will affect the designed curriculum.

The purpose of this study is to investigate various mathematics education improvement or reform movements of Western Europe countries (United Kingdom, Germany, etc.) and the United States of America, to see the effects of those movements on Korean mathematics education circle, and to find a direction of Korean mathematics curriculum design. The third Korean mathematics curriculum was most affected by the new mathematics movement of the United States of America. This movement was emphasizing abstract structure, logical rigorousness and discovery learning of mathematics, which was fired from late fifties. Korean mathematics education circle imported the new mathematics early seventies from USA, but serious problems had been found at that time in USA. This study has pointed out that new math oriented Korean mathematics curriculum was not proper and the new mathematics itself was disastrous for most Korean students' learning. The study also points out that they hurried too much introducing the new mathematics and publishing new mathematics oriented textbooks but they had not sufficient teacher training programs. In our future mathematics curriculum reform, we have to remember such a historical lesson.

The mathematics curriculum reform has been carried out for almost five years (2004-2008) in the mainland China. But the teaching and learning in mathematics classrooms still are traditional in nature. Analyzing from the cultural angle, some reasons can be found: the orientation of teachers' role, teaching, and learning, the relationships between a teacher and the students, understanding the mathematics, and examination.

The Hong Kong mathematics curriculum has launched its reform in recent years. It was the first time that a holistic review of syllabi from Primary 1 through Secondary 7 was made. The curriculum development agency also decided to base the reform on sound pedagogical foundations. That was assisted with academic research where the views of various stakeholders were investigated in detail. Surveys were conducted with students, parents, teachers, employers, university professors, and curriculum designers and they give a full picture of mathematics teaching and learning in Hong Kong. The rich data collected should shed light on the development of mathematics curriculum in other regions with similar socio-cultural and educational settings.

본 연구에서는 최근까지 공식적인 검토의 과정 없이 한 가지 형태로만 지속되어 왔던 교육과정 개정의 방식에 대하여 수학교육이라는 각론적 입장에서 비판적으로 논의를 끌어내고, 이어서 바람직한 수학과 교육과정 개정방식에 대한 안을 수학교육의 입장에서 제시하였다. 이를 위해서 먼저 기존의 수학과 교육과정 개정방식에 대한 반성적 고찰을 하고, 이를 바탕으로 수학과 교육과정 개정방식에 대한 개선방안을 제시하였으며, 총론 교육과정 개정방식에 대해서도 수학교육의 각론적 입장에서 제언을 하였다.

Nowadays, open education is popular in Korea. Various open education methods such as open time, open space, open curriculum, team teaching, small group learning are actively introduced into mathematics education. Current 'open education in mathematics' in Korea can be characterized as the application general education reform movement (open education movement) to mathematics education. This movement is interested in teaching methods rather than contents. In this article, I discussed with the limits and the problems of this application and argued that not the method-centered open general education reform movement but the content-centered mathematics education's own reform movement is necessary for the true mathematics education reform.

In case of Korea, while discrete mathematics is included in the traditional school curriculum the 7th Educational Reform adds a new topic of Graph Theory making it an optional subject of highschool mathematics. However, a systematic research on the curriculum of discrete mathematics is still unsatisfactory. This study is focused on comparing the curriculum of discrete mathematics in Korea with that of other countries including the United States, Britain, Japan, and Canada. Consequently, it looks into problems concerning the school curriculum of discrete mathematics in Korea to devise a proper measure to improve.

Now in Korea, the 7th curriculum reform is underway. The main difference of the seventh curriculum compared with former curricula is that it puts much emphasis on individual difference. It is a "differentiated" curriculum. The basic directions of the 7th mathematics curriculum are as follows: 1. Offer various mathematical subjects for "Selective Educational Period" (Grades 11 and 12). 2. 30% reduction of mathematical contents. 3. The reconciliation of domain names of school mathematics. 4. The use of computers and calculators in mathematics classrooms.

The traditional Chinese mathematics education is examination-contended and has its disadvantages. The mathematics education reform today is undergoing in a wider era and faces its attention on innovation education individually education, flexible and diversified education, give prominence to integration of the curriculum, the integration of teaching content and information technology, and the changing of teaming methods and teaching methods. These are all the new trends in the mathematics education reform in China.

There were a lot of attempt to reform mathematics education. These may include reforms of teaching and learning methods, development of mathematics curriculum and textbooks, materials and resources for teaching. But the most important thing is reform of teaching and learning method. The teaching and learning in mathematics is related with culture of mathematics classroom. Thus the culture of mathematics classroom plays a critical role in the learning of mathematics. Although there is consensus what desirable culture of mathematics classroom is, the role of teachers is important to make desirable culture of mathematics classroom. So, this paper suggested the role of teachers in reforming the culture of mathematics classroom. Avoiding from routine and technical teaching, the teachers should play active role in constructing mathematical understanding of students.
