Studying functions is the fundamental that makes people understand complicate social events by using mathematical symbol system. But there are not enough program design and Teaching-learning strategy for mathematical-gifted student. So this research aim to design education program and teaching-learning strategy in functions area for mathematical-gifted student. 1 use real life-related problems to make students develop their problem-solving skill. And in this research I encourage students to study functions by grouping, discussion and presentation for self-directed teaming.

The purposes of this paper are to show problem-solving strategies and their typical problems to suggest specific ways to teach strategies to promote problem-solving abilities. (1) Problem-solving strategies can be divided into general strategies and specific strategies. General strategies refer to procedural teaching-learning activities based on Polya's 4 step problem-solving. Specific strategies refer to Lenchner's 12 problem solving strategies and their characteristics which are helpful to the substantial solution of specific problems. (2) Concerning to problem-solving strategies teaching, the followings are suggested. First, the sequence of strategy teaching should be from easy to difficult ones, from short to long ones. Second problems for strategy training should be simple and good enough to serve as examples of the strategies. Repetition with similar problems are needed. Third, analysis and comparison of various strategies, and extension and adaptation of the strategies to complicate problems are needed. Fourth, procedures of strategies teaching are the follows: Have students make their own strategies focused on the solution process; Have students solve the problems with expectation of the solving methods; Have students compare and reflect on their solving methods; And assess problem - solving processes.

The goal of this thesis was to examine the effects of applying meta-problems to elementary school mathematics class In their achievements, beliefs and attitudes. To achieve this goal the following research questions were asked. a. What effects does the class applied with meta-problem have on students' mathematical achievements? b. What effects does the class applied with meta-problem have on students' mathematical beliefs and attitudes? To answer questions, an experimental study was designed and conducted. The subjects were 6th-grade students at S Elementary School located in Dobong-Gu, Seoul where the researcher teaches. Among them, the class that the researcher teach was chosen as the experimental group. During the experimental study, a teaching-learning with meta-problems was applied to the experimental group and a teaching-learning with general problems was applied to the comparative group. To examine changes in the mathematical achievements of the experimental group and the comparative group, a post-test of mathematical achievements was conducted and the results were t-tested. As well, to find answers to the second research question, a pre-test and a post-test of mathematical beliefs and attitudes were conducted on the experimental group and the results were t-tested. The results of this study were as follows First, the experimental group which was taught applying meta-problems got higher mathematical achievement than the comparative group. Second, the class with meta-problems did not bring significant changes in students' mathematical beliefs and attitudes. Synthesizing the study results above, a teaching-learning with meta-problems is a teaching-learning method that can accommodate problem solving naturally in school mathematics and give a positive effect on students' mathematical achievements.

수학적 힘의 함양과 문제해결력의 신장을 위한 수학교육에서 확률영역은 중요한 학습소재임에도 불구하고, 확률영역은 어려운 것으로 고착되었다. 이 연구에서는 학생들이 확률영역의 어떤 부분을 어려워하고 이해하기 힘들어하는지를 구체적 문항분석을 통하여 알아봄으로서 교수-학습의 기초자료를 제공하고자한다. 이를 위하여, 지난 10년간 출제되었던 대학수학능력시험의 확률영역 16문항을 고등학교 학생 220명에게 실시하고, 고전검사이론과 문항반응이론울 적용하여 그 결과를 분석하였다. 고전검사이론에서는 신뢰도와 변별도를 측정하였고, 문항반응이론에서는 Rasch 1-모수 문항반응모형에 근거한 BIGSTEP을 사용하여 내적타당도와 난이도를 측정하였다.

Creative problem solving skills in mathematics were measured by fluency, flexibility, and originality; cognitive strategies were measured by rehearsal, elaboration, organization, planning, monitoring, and regulating. The Creative Problem Solving Test in Mathematics developed at the Korea Educational Development Institute(Kim et al., 1997) and the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire(Pintrich & DeGroot, 1990) were administered to 84 subjects in grade 5(45 girls, 39 boys). Data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation, multiple regression analysis, and canonical correlation analysis. Results indicated that positive regulating predicted total score and fluency, flexibility, and originality scores of creative problem solving skills. Elaboration, rehearsal, organization, regulating, monitoring, and planning positively contributed to the fluency and flexibility scores of creative problem solving skills.

In this study, the instrument of mathematical problem posing ability and mathematical creativity ability tests were considered, and the differences between gifted and regular students in the ability were investigated by the test. The instrument consists of each 10 items and 5 items, and verified its quality due to reliability, validity and discrimination. Participants were 218 regular and 100 gifted students from seventh grade. As a result, not only problem solving but also mathematical creativity and problem posing could be the characteristics of the giftedness.

수학 교육평가에서 고사 타당도의 측정은 매우 중요하다. 그것은 평가자가 목적하는 바의 준거에 따라 수험자들의 문제해결력 변별을 위한 고사들 간의 타당도 크기 측정과 또는 고사 문항의 선정, 배치를 통하여 한 고사의 타당도를 높이기 위한 문항별 타당도 계수를 측정 계산하는 것이다. 이 연구에서는 이 두 가지 고사 타당도의 크기 측정법을 이용하여 수학교육 평가 현장에서 직접적으로 적용할 수 있는 고사 타당도의 제고에 유효한 연구 결과를 제시한다.

The purposes of the study were to develop STEM instructional materials for teaching and learning mathematics and to investigate how the STEM based approach affects on students' learning of mathematics in cognitive and affective domain and career choice. STEM instructional materials were designed for learning of mathematical concepts in the contexts of science, technology, and engineering as well as real world. According to the results of the study, STEM instructional materials for teaching and learning mathematics were effective for improving students' problem solving ability and affective achievement such as self-regulation, self-efficacy, and value of mathematics. In addition, STEM program played a positive role in tempting students' career choice into science and engineering fields including mathematics.
