Nowadays the education of Mathematics is more important than any other courses in the school. But the most students have felt the difficulty and uncomfortableness in studying Mathematics, especially the geometry course. Moreover teachers also consider that the teaching of geometry is the hardest part of Mathematics. Therefore we suggest an effective method of teaching the geometry course for the middle school students. We provide the activity papers which contain mathematics problems based on the practical life of students. And we analyze the effects of the activity papers using the questionnaire.

In this study, the effects of science achievement faculties improvements upon students' logical thinking, science inquiry skills, experiment attitudes, manipulated skills and inquiry process skills were investigated in high school inquiry chemistry experiments. For this purpose, the participants were 150 students taking the course of high school chemistry class in Anyang-city. Logical thinking and science inquiry skills' data were collected from written tests, inquiry process skills' data were collected from reports and experiment attitudes and manipulated skills' data were collected from classroom observations. As the results of this study, students' inquiry process skills, experiment attitudes and manipulative skills were very low. But other parts except inquiry process skills were significantly increased. And the science achievement of students were improved when continuously inquiry chemistry experiment were applied to students.

In this study, tlhe relationships of high school students' abilities to solve chemistry problems with cognitive variables (logical thinking ability, mental capacity. and learning strategy) and affective variables(self-efficacy, self-concept of ability, learning goal, and attitude toward science) were investigated. The proportion of variance due to the variables for algorithmic and conceptual problem solving ability was studied by a multiple regression analysis. The results indicated that, among the cognitive variables, the logical thinking ability significantly predicted the algorithmic problem solving ability, and the learning strategy was the best predictor of conceptual problem solving ability although not significant. Among the affective variables studied, the self-concept of alility was the significant predictor of both algorithmic and conceptual problem solving abilities. The seif-efficacy was significantly correlated with conceptual problem solving ability, but it had no predictive power.

Conservation reasoning makes operational thought possible as a functional tool and it is the essential concept not only in the area of science and mathematics but also in several aspects of daily life. The abilities to solve mathematical problems and that of scientific reasoning and abstract way of thinking depend on whether thereis conservation reasoning or not and they are critical concepts that enables us to confirm the steps of cognitive development. Therefor in the study, we emphasized the issue that is the ways to speed up the scientific era by analyzing the correlation between the formation of conservation reasoning and neuro-cognitive variables. About 50% of 1-3 grade students did not had conservation reasoning skills. The formation of conservations was not linear. Scientific reasoning ability, planing and inhibiting ability were significantly different in levels of conservation, And, conservation reasonings were significantly correlated with cognitive variables. Scientific reasoning and planning ability significantly explained about 20% of the conservation reasoning ability of 1-3 grades.

The values and methods of mathematics education which mathematics teachers tried to impart to their students have varied historically according to the situations of each institution. The cases of the mathematics education in Cambridge University and University College, London show that the peculiar meanings or values of mathematics education were transmitted on students and the methods or focus of the teaching were uniquely determined under the influences of university examinations or conditions of students. In specific, the characteristic education of Augustus De Morgan who studied in Cambridge University and then taught in University College, London reveals better the different institutional contexts. In this paper, I suggest mathematics teachers reconsider mathematics learning motivations on their institutional contexts.

The purpose of this study was to know that the 'Thinking Science' activities affects the enhancement of critical thinking skill by the logical thinking skill about pupils in the $5^{th}$ and $6^{th}$ grade of elementary school in Korea. The 19 activities of 'Thinking Science' as the teaching materials was implemented to 40 pupils in elementary school over 13 weeks. Results indicated that the experimental group presented statistically meaningful improvement in logical thinking skills(p<.05). Those teaching materials contributed to improve 3 logical sub-elements significantly(p<.05) as the proportional logical element, the probabilistic logical element, and combinational logical element. But, there was no significant improvement in conservational logical element, control of variable element, and correlational element(p<.05).

기술 공학 및 수학 학문 자체의 발전으로 인하여 논리성 개발뿐만 아니라 사고력을 개발하고, 일상 생활에 유용한 학습 내용들이 학교 수학에 도입되고 있다 수학 학습의 이러한 변화의 측면에서 보면, 어림은 사고력 개발이나 일상생활에서의 유용성에 많은 도움이 될 수 있는 수학 학습의 한 영역이다. 그러나 하나의 정확한 답을 구하는데 익숙해 있는 아동들은 오차를 포함하는 어림 값을 문제에 대한 답으로 수용하는 것을 어려워하며, 어림을 사용해서 문제를 해결할 때 문제에 대한 답이 여러 개 있을 수 있음을 인정하지 못한다. 또 어떤 경우에는 정확한 계산을 한 후 그 결과를 반올림해서 어림 값을 구한다. 이러한 형태의 어림 학습은 어림의 유용성을 충분히 인식시키거나 효율적으로 어림하는 감각이나 융통성 있는 사고를 개발하지 못해 아동들로 하여금 어림을 귀찮고 성가신 것으로 생각하게 한다.

The purpose of this study lies in applying generalizability theory depending on the aim of the usage of GALT to analyze the sources of error of single-facet considering item and person only and to analyze the sources of error of multi-facet considering item, person and domain. The study was conducted with 1016 students of local elementary, middle, and high schools. The 21 items of a full version were answered for 40 minute and then the 12 items of short version were sampled to analyze reliability using generalizability theory. Both the full version and the short version of the items were analyzed using Cronbach's alpha for data analysis, and we applied generalizability theory and separate $p{\times}i$ design and $p{\times}(i:h)$ design, G study and D study were performed. Results of analysis are as follows: First, the result of D study after $p{\times}I$ design both on the full version and the short version showed that in the case of the full version, the generalizability coefficient was 0.87 exceeding a normal level of 0.80, and the normal level of generalizability coefficient was achieved in 13 items as well. In case of short version, when 12 items were evaluated, generalizability coefficient was 0.77 not reaching the normal level, and the normal level was achieved in case of more than 15 items. Second, the result of D study after $p{\times}(I:H)$ design on the short version showed that once one domain consists of 2 items in 6 domains, generalizability coefficient was 0.71 which is lower than the normal level of 0.80, the normal level was achieved in more than 5 item cases.

This study is intended to examine 36 in-service secondary school mathematics teachers' conceptions of proof in the context of mathematics and mathematics education. The results suggest that almost teachers recognize the role as justification well but have the insufficient conceptions about another various roles of proof in mathematics. The results further suggest that many of teachers have vague concept-images in relation with the requirement of proof and recognize the insufficiency about the actual teaching of proof. Based on the results, implications for revision of mathematics curriculum and mathematics teacher education are discussed.
