This study assumes alternative character of the operation of mathematical club in middle school. The case that operated the voluntary mathematics club for one year was analyzed and the educational effect was considered. First, the examination instrument for choosing the members of mathematics club was developed and used. And, diverse teaching and learning materials for improving creativity and mathematical ability of the members were used. Second, the difference of learning result between the experiment group and control one who joined the activities of mathematics club was analyzed. Finally, mathematical club activity based on mathematics history appeared to be effective in improving academic achievement and mathematics exploration activity.

Social awareness of mathematics and academic attitudes toward the value of mathematics education has kept changing according to the intellectual, political and religious contexts. In this article, we examine how mathematics was defined and recognized in liberal arts education of the Roman Empire and early medieval Western Europe. This study analyzes how mathematics was described in encyclopedic works written in the Roman era after the mid-second century BC and in the Western European monasteries and cathedral schools after the fifth century. Ancient Greek mathematics took a clear place in liberal arts education through encyclopedia writings and prepared a mathematics curriculum for medieval universities. I hope this study will contribute to understanding the origin and context of the mathematics curriculum of medieval universities.

This study investigated the new revised Mathematics curriculums of elementary schools in Korea and Japan at the end of the 20th century. The comparison was made especially with revising direction, purposes, and contents of elementary school mathematics curriculum in both countries. I began by comparing and confirming the ratio of instruction hours of Mathematics to the total instruction hours of all the subjects at as whole. This comparison was done of the elementary and middle school mathematics. The next part of the study was to compare in detail the purposes of revised mathematics in elementary and middle schools of both countries. Particular attentions was paid to the important revised points of Japanese elementary school Mathematics. Finally, I concluded by comparing the contents of elementary school Mathematics of the two countries. New mathematic text books in both countries having been published by revised curriculum, puts the future task in comparing, in detail, the concrete contents of each textbook.

The purpose of this article is to study the change of mathematics teaching efficacy of pre-service mathematics teachers in teaching practice course. For this purpose we collect data through questionnaire from 61 pre-service mathematics teachers. To make a questionnaire we rearrange Ryang's MTES items. The pre-service mathematics teachers fill out the questionnaire before and after teaching practice course. The data are analyzed by paired t-test using SPSS23. The result of paired t-test show that the difference between pre-test scores and post-test scores is significant statistically. So we can conclude that the mathematics teaching efficacy of pre-service mathematics teachers is changed and improved after teaching practice course.

In the history of mathematics education, different opinions as to how to view the phenomenon of mathematics education have been suggested in various ways. As those conflicting opinions have caused fundamental tensions in the phenomenon of mathematics education, they remain fundamental standpoints that have been continuously advocated until now - not limited in a certain period. It can be argued that this situation was caused by partial or fragmentary understanding of the phenomenon of mathematics education. If we are pursuing not a partial knowledge but a complete understanding of mathematics education, how should it be formed to comprehensively study the entire phenomenon of mathematics education? To answer this question, Complex structure in phenomenon of Mathematics Education can be proposed. It is an explanation for the opposing opinions existing in the phenomenon of mathematics education. The purpose of this paper is to understand the phenomenon of mathematics education as a whole.

The goals of a major reform effort are to enable us to educate informed citizens who are better able to function in our increasingly technological society. Discrete mathematics is an exciting and appropriate vehicle for working toward and achieving these goals. it is an excellent tool for improving reasoning and problem solving skills. Discrete mathematics has many practical applications that are useful for solving some of the problems of our society and that are meaningful to our students. Its problems make mathematics come alive for students, and help them see the relevance of mathematics th the real word. To build up the role of Discrete mathematics in the school, this study is to investigate various theories and curricula related to discrete mathematics, and to collect a great deal of valuable material that will help teachers introduce discrete mathematics in their classrooms. In conclusion. mathematics teachers will find the need and importance of why and how discrete mathematics can be introduced into their curricula by this study.

This paper describes the teaching of mathematics in France at the elementary and secondary levels. It consists of four parts: the structure of the french education system and the status of mathematics within it, the evolution of mathematics teaching in France from 1968 to nowadays, the teacher training in France, the mathematical contents in the elementary school curriculum and the mathematics curriculum in the lower secondary school. From this review, we can extract some characteristics of the teaching of mathematics in France.

Mathematics has developed dramatically in today's world and come to be increasingly put into practical use in various fields in society. However, many Japanese students dislike mathematics. We have to study mathematics education with this situation in our mind. When we consider a better educational material, we don't have to consider only within the framework of the current school mathematics. We can expect to find good mathematical materials in fields beyond the school mathematics. In this paper, we study how the inclusion of idea such as 'fuzzy theory' and 'graph theory' influences pupils' approaches to learning mathematics.

본 연구에서는 현행 2011 수학과 교육과정에 따라 개발된 수학 교사용 지도서에서 제시하고 있는 수학 수업 모형을 중심으로 현장 교원들의 만족도와 활용 정도, 요구사항을 알아보았다. 현행 수업 모형에 대한 만족도는 약 80% 정도로 높은 것으로 나타났으나, 활용 빈도는 학기 당 또는 단원 당 1회 정도로 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 다른 교과 중에서는 사회와 과학 수업 모형에 대한 만족도가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 그 이유로 수업에 활용하기 편리하다는 점을 들었다. 수학 수업 모형의 현장 활용도를 높이기 위한 방안으로 수학의 다양한 내용 영역을 고려한 수업 모형 개발, 수준별 차이를 고려한 수업 모형 개발, 직접 교수법 등 교육과정의 교수학습 방법을 고려한 수업 모형 개발이 필요함을 제안하였다.

We continue the study of power-Armendariz rings over IFP rings, introducing $k$-power Armendariz rings as a generalization of power-Armendariz rings. Han et al. showed that IFP rings are 1-power Armendariz. We prove that IFP rings are 2-power Armendariz. We moreover study a relationship between IFP rings and $k$-power Armendariz rings under a condition related to nilpotency of coefficients.
