We consider the boundary value problem with a Dirichlet condition for a second order linear uniformly elliptic operator in a non-divergence form. We study some properties of a barrier at infinity which was introduced by Meyers and Serrin to investigate a solution in an exterior domains. Also, we construct a modified barrier for more general domain than an exterior domain.

유클리드 원론은 그 내용과 방법론의 중요성으로 인해 현재까지도 수학과 수학교육에서 중요한 교재로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원론이 초등학교 수학교과서의 이해에 구체적으로 어떻게 관련되는지를 논의하고 교사교육에의 가치를 밝히고자 하였다. 먼저, 초등학교 교과서의 구체적인 몇 가지 내용들을 원론의 관점에서 고찰할 때 어떤 교육적 시사점을 얻을 수 있는지 검토함으로써 초등학교 교육내용의 이해에 있어서 원론의 중요성을 예증하였다. 또한, 교사와 예비교사들이 체계로서의 수학을 경험할 수 있는 장으로서 원론의 가치를 논의하였다.

본 연구에서는 브루너의 이론에서 처음 등장하여 수학과 교수$.$학습 방안을 구성하는데 주요한 도구가 되어온 '기본개념'을 둘러싼 다양한 고찰을 다룬다. 기본개념의 주요한 특성 가운데 한 가지는 그 성립과정이 수학사적 전개와 조응한다는 점이다. 따라서 수학교육을 위한 내용과 방법을 구성할 때 수학사는 아주 유용하고도 중요한 토대로서 작용한다는 것을 기본개념의 탐색과 관련하여 다룬다. 그리고 기본개념으로서 평균값을 지도하는 방안을 모형으로 제시하도록 한다.

Investigating the relationship between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation and their effects on affective mathematics engagement in a cultural context is critical for determining which types of motivation promote affective mathematics engagement and the relationship with cultural affordance. The investigation in the current study is comprised of two dependent studies. The results from Phase 1 indicate that attitude and emotion are better explained by extrinsic motivation, while self-acknowledgment and value are better explained by intrinsic motivation. The results of Phase 2 indicate that the Korean sample has greater extrinsic motivation, attitude, and emotion, while the U.S. sample has greater intrinsic motivation, self-acknowledgment, and value. The key outcome for this research is that disentangling cultural affordance from the emotional and cognitive structures is impossible.

What an individual values and regards as important has a significant impact on his or her learning. Classroom instruction would be even more effective if what the teacher regards as important in his or her pedagogical practice are aligned with what students regard as important too. Given this background, this study sought to find out what Korean students valued about mathematics and mathematics learning using a questionnaire developed by Seah (2005). The participants were 409 students from Grade 6 and 407 students from Grade 9 in Korea. The results of this study showed that students put the biggest emphasis on ideological aspects of mathematics, specifically rationalism, among mathematical values. The students also valued product, computation, process, exposition, and recalling among values related to the learning of mathematics. A comparative analysis between the two groups of students showed that sixth graders tended to think more positively with regards to each value than ninth graders. On the basis of these results, this paper raises some issues about students' values in mathematics learning. It also suggests that teachers need to consider what students value and regard as important in their mathematics learning to bring about even more effective instruction.

The purpose of this study was to examine (1) if sociocultural factors that are known to influence gender gap in mathematics achievement are gender equitable for Singaporean eighth grade students, (2) if there is a higher level of gender equitability in students' attitudes towards mathematics and (3) how sociocultural factors influence mathematics achievement for Singaporean eighth grade students. This study is based on 5,923 Singaporean eighth grade students who participated in TIMSS 2011 assessment. The study found that there were no statistically significant gender differences in 'parental involvement in education' and 'teacher efficacy.' There were no statistically significant gender differences in students' attitudes of 'like learning mathematics,' and 'value learning mathematics'. A significant gender difference was identified for the attitude of 'confident with mathematics.' The boys displayed a higher level of confidence in mathematics than the girls consistent with other study findings for Asian students. The degree of effect from 'parental involvement in education,' 'teacher efficacy,' and 'confident with mathematics' on mathematics achievement are found to be stronger for girls than boys. The finding implies that girls' mathematics achievement can benefit from having more positive encouragement and involvement of parents and teachers and strengthening confidence in mathematics.

We study the existence of positive solutions of second order nonlinear separated boundary value problems of superlinear as well as sublinear type without imposing monotonicity restrictions on the problem. The type of problem investigated cannot be analyzed using the linearization about the trivial solution because either it does not exist (the sublinear case) or is trivial (the superlinear case). The results follow from a known fixed point theorem by noticing that the concavity of the solutions provides an important condition for the applicability of the fixed point result.

In this paper, we define the one-sided fuzzy set and we calculate the mean value and variance, defined by C. Carlsson and R. $Full{\acute{e}}r$, of this fuzzy set. And we obtain a result that, in some special case, the mean of the product of two fuzzy sets is the product of means of each fuzzy sets. This result can be considered as the similar result which is well-known in the independence of events in probability theory.

This paper aims to examine how the public perception of mathematics changed in England in the 19th century. As rapid industrial and social developments took place in the 19th century, the educational environment underwent great changes, and the value and public perception of mathematics also changed. Mathematics took a new position in the terrain of educational reform in the late 19th century. In this study, I analyzed the actual condition of mathematics education in elementary and secondary schools, popular educational institutions, and universities in England in the first half, middle, and second half of the 19th century, and compared what values and usefulness of mathematics education were justified in each institution. I also examined how satirical magazine Punch satirized the public understanding or view on mathematics at each period. It is to be hoped that this study will have significant implications for raising the public's positive perception of mathematics in modern society.
