  • The purpose of this study is to analyze middle school students' learning characteristics they showed on the inquiry-based learning process of circumcenter using various teaching tools, and then to identify the effects of using teaching tools in the middle school students' learning process of circumcenter. For this purpose, we developed teaching materials for inquiry-based learning of circumcenter using textbook, origami, ruler and compass, GeoGebra and sand experiment. Then we applied them on the learning process of circumcenter for five groups of middle school students. From the analyzing of audio/video materials and documents which are collected from the process of participants' inquiry-based learning of circumcenter, we identified the following results. First, inquiry-based learning of circumcenter using various teaching tools promoted mathematical discourses among participants of this study. For example, they conjectured mathematical properties or justified their opinions after manipulated teaching tools in the process of learning circumcenter. Second, inquiry-based learning of circumcenter using various teaching tools promoted participants' divergent thinking. They tried many inquiry methods to find new mathematical properties relate to circumcenter. For example, they tried many inquiry methods to know whether there is unique circle containing four vertices of given quadrangles. Third, we found several didactic implications relate to inquiry-based learning of circumcenter using various teaching tools which are due to characteristics of teaching tools themselves. Participants showed several misconceptions about mathematical properties during they participated inquiry-based activity for learning of circumcenter using various teaching tools. We identified their misconceptions were not due to any other variables containing their learning characteristics but to characteristics of teaching tools.

  • This study is a basic study to effectively develop a mathematics experience object, an important tool and educational tool in mathematics education. Recently, as mathematics education based on action theory is emphasized, various mathematics experience objects are being developed. It is also used through various after-school activities in the school. However, there are insufficient cases in which a mathematics experience teaching tools is developed and used as a tool for explaining mathematics concepts in mathematics classrooms. Also, the mathematical background of the mathematics experience teaching tools used by students is unclear. For this reason, the mathematical understanding of the toolst for mathematics experience is also very insufficient. Therefore, in this study, a development model is proposed as a systematic method for developing a mathematics experience teaching tools. Also, in this study, we developed 'the Great Common Divisor' mathematics experience teaching tool according to the development model. Through the model proposed through this study and the actual mathematics experience teaching tool, the development of various tools for mathematical experience will be practically implemented. In addition, it is expected that various tools for experiencing mathematics based on mathematical foundations will be developed.

  • Although education using teaching tools is important to both students and teachers, the quality problem of distributed teaching tools is constantly being raised. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to analyze the teaching tools by classifying them into three quality factors, and to confirm the satisfaction and repurchase intentions of elementary school teachers. This study was conducted by dividing the first CIT survey and the second survey targeting incumbent elementary school teachers, and the PLS statistical program was used as an analysis tool. Through empirical analysis, it was analyzed that product quality, educational quality, and service quality had a positive (+) effect on teacher satisfaction, and that teacher satisfaction had a positive (+) effect on repurchase intention. Through this, it gives teachers insight into what they should focus on when purchasing or evaluating teaching tools and how to use them usefully for education, and for researchers, it provides an important clue to research for product quality improvement, and for companies that produce and distribute teaching tools, it gives to effective guidelines for the development of new products and contents. In the future, in addition to the relationship between the teaching tools and teachers, additional research on the organic relationship between the teaching tools and various objects is needed, and this is suggested as a future study.

  • With the introduction of AI digital textbooks, interest in the use of technology tools in mathematics education is increasing. Technology tools have the advantage of visualizing mathematical concepts and discovering mathematical principles through experimentation and inquiry. The 2015 revised mathematics curriculum in Korea already mentions the use of technology tools, and accordingly, various teaching and learning activities using technology tools are presented in mathematics textbooks. However, there is still a lack of systematic analysis on the types and utilization methods of technology tools presented in textbooks. Therefore, this study analyzed the current status of the use of technology tools presented in high school mathematics textbooks based on the 2015 revised curriculum. To this end, the types of technology tools presented in mathematics textbooks were categorized, and the utilization ratio of each category was investigated. In addition, the utilization patterns of technology tools were analyzed by subject and content area, and the utilization ratio of technology tools according to the type of teaching and learning activities was examined. The results showed that technology tools were used in various types and ratios according to the subject and content area. In particular, technology tools in the symbol-manipulation graphing software category accounted for 58% of the total usage cases, showing the highest proportion. By subject, the use of symbol-manipulation graphing software was prominent in subjects dealing with the analysis area, while the use of dynamic geometry software was relatively high in the geometry area. In terms of teaching and learning activity types, the utilization ratio of auxiliary tool type (49%) and intended inquiry induction type (37%) was high. The results of this study show that technology tools play various roles in mathematics textbooks and provide useful implications for improving mathematics teaching and learning methods using technology tools in the future. Furthermore, it can contribute to the establishment of educational policies related to AI digital textbooks and the development of teacher training programs.

  • This study aimed to analyze cases of online class design by pre-service science teachers to identify the teaching strategies employed for online classes. For this purpose, the real-time online class lesson plans of 12 pre-service science teachers, who had experienced education utilizing online teaching tools for a semester, were collected and analyzed. The pre-service science teachers considered all the elements that were essential in traditional face-to-face class designs, including prerequisites, statements of learning objectives, stimulating motivation, teaching and learning methods, wrapping up, teacher-student interaction, and assessment. They devised teaching strategies that could overcome the limitations of online teaching and were not feasible in face-to-face classes for each element. Additionally, they were considering new instructional strategies tailored to the online teaching environment, such as creating a conducive environment for using online teaching tools and strategies related to checking the online teaching environment. However, for statements of learning objectives, stimulating motivation, and wrapping up, most of the pre-service science teachers predominantly utilized teaching strategies from traditional face-to-face classes, especially those involving the presentation of visual materials through online tools. Student-centered approaches were rarely implemented in stimulating motivation or wrapping up. These findings imply that one semester of exposure to the utilization of online teaching tools may be insufficient in teacher education. Thus, there is a need for a continuous and expanded educational program on the utilization of online teaching tools as part of pre-service teacher education.
