Congruence of figure is a basic to learn a symmetrical figure and helps to understand the characteristics of figure and know the way of drawing figures. The knowledge of congruence provides us art attainments to understand design and fine pieces of art. However, it is difficult to expect the interaction between students or between teachers and students, because of spending too much time for cutting papers and making the shapes of figure during the class for establishing the concepts. This study utilized a question-based interaction model which would foster elementary school student's learning effectiveness and make them understood the concept of congruence, also developed a congruence learning system which could communicate in both synchronous and asynchronous situation.

Congruences and symmetry are familiar concepts that can be encountered in everyday life. In order to effectively understand and acquire these concepts, the role of appropriate visual examples is important. This analysis examined various visual examples used in the process of learning the concepts of congruence and symmetry in elementary mathematics textbooks and focused on the use of convex polygons and concave polygons. As a result of the analysis, various types of polygons were used as visual examples for teaching and learning of congruence and symmetry in textbooks. The frequency of use of concave polygons was higher in the order of congruence, line symmetry, and point symmetry, and it was confirmed that it was used more frequently in the process of exploring properties than in the introduction of the concept. Based on these results, a plan to utilize concave polygons in teaching and learning of congruence and symmetry was sought.

In this study, an implication has been drawn for the textbook development and teaching and learning process as a congruence of a figure is compared and analyzed between Korean elementary mathematics textbooks and American elementary math textbooks. Based on the result of comparison and analysis in congruence contents between Korean and EM textbooks, some applications for the development of figure and congruence chapters in Korean textbooks are as below. First of all, in term of congruence, activities related to congruence need to be introduced after the concept of congruence is defined either with illustrations of fundamental figures such as a segment and angle or with examples of polygon. Second, it is required to assist students to realize that compasses can be used to copy length. In Korean textbooks, compasses are being introduced as a tool to draw circles, which causes children to have difficulty in drawing triangles. Last, for the implication of congruence, tessellation suggested in American Everyday Mathematics textbooks is worth being applied to the development of Korean textbooks.

This study is to develop the methods of specifying teaching that can consider individual differences in middle school geometry education. The purpose of this study is to decide the variations causing individual differences and to find the proper learning methods considering the variations. Through literature review, this study made it clear that the matter of individual difference is just the matter of talent and examined what factors make up mathematical talents. On the basis of the result, five important variations and fourteen subordinate factors were determined. I researched into the learning methods that consider the determined subordinate factors using the 'congruence' unit of middle school textbooks and developed specific learning methods for each of the subordinate factors through specific congruence problem solving situations. This study can be summarized as follows : I researched the studies of mathematical ability conducted by several educators and psychologists. This research is divided into the early study and the developed study of mathematical ability. Through this study five specific variations were determined. And fourteen subordinate factors have been made from the determined variations. The specific learning methods based on individual differences was developed according to the fourteen subordinate factors on the basis of middle school textbooks of Korea, Gusev's textbook, problem books of Russia, and etc.

The purpose of this study is to develop and apply a Convergence program for teaching of congruence and symmetry and to investigate the effects of the mathematical creativity and convergence talent. For these purposes, research questions were set up as follows: 1. How is a Convergence program for teaching of congruence and symmetry developed? 2. How does a Convergence program affect the mathematics creativity and convergence talent of fifth grade student in elementary school? The subjects in this study were 16 students in fifth-grade class in elementary school located in Songpa-gu, Seoul. A Convergence program was developed using the integrated unit design process chose the concept of congruence and symmetryas its topic. The developed program consisted of a total 12 class activities plan, lesson plans for 5 activities. Mathematics creativity test, a test on affective domain related with convergence talent measurement were carried out before and after the application of the developed program so as to analyze the its effects. In addition, students' satisfaction for the developed program was investigated by a questionnaire. The results of this study were as follows: First, A convergence program should be developed using the integrated unit design process to avoid focusing on the content of any one subject area. The program for teaching of congruence and symmetry should be considered students' learning style and their preferences for media. Second, the convergence program improved the students' mathematical creativity and convergence talent. Among the sub-factors of mathematical creativity, originality was especially improved by this program. Students thought that the program is good for their creativity. Plus, this program use two subject class, Math and Art, so student do not think about one subject but focus on topic 'congruence and symmetry'. It help students to develop their convergence talent.

The world we live in is called the age of information. Thus communication and computers are doing the central role in it. When one studies the mathematical problem, the use of tools such as computers, calculators and technology is available for all students, and then students are actively engaged in reasoning, communicating, problem solving, and making connections with mathematics, between mathematics and other disciplines. The use of technology extends to include computer algebra systems, spreadsheets, dynamic geometry software and the Internet and help active learning of students by analyzing data and realizing mathematical models visually. In this paper, we explain concepts of transformation, linear transformation, congruence transformation and homothety, and introduce interesting, meaningful and visual models for teaching of a plane transformation geomeoy which are obtained by using Mathematica. Moreover, this study will show how to visualize linear transformation for student's better understanding in teaching a plane transformation geometry in classroom. New development of these kinds of teaching-learning methods can simulate student's curiosity about mathematics and their interest. Therefore these models will give teachers the active teaching and also give students the successful loaming for obtaining the concept of linear transformation.

Several studies have been conducted on market orientation over the last three decades. However, the majority of previous research focused exclusively on an internal vision that conceives the market orientation from an organizational perspective, considering the market orientation as a strictly perceived culture or behavior by company's staff (managers and employees) .This study aims to emphasize the importance of analyzing the market orientation from a dual perspective by investigating simultaneously the perceptions of customers and those of managers. It examines the perceptual gap or perceptual congruence of market orientation between customers and managers. A survey is conducted with Tunisian bank managers and B to B customers to measure their market orientation perception. The results should reveal level of manager's market orientation in Tunisian banks compared to customers' perceptions. The perception gaps of market orientation between managers and customers named congruence is highlighted and categorized. This study provides some contributions to fill the gap emerging from the one-sidedness of market orientation evaluation and gives a dyadic vision of market orientation that helps managers in their continuous learning about markets and sensing customers' needs and expectations. Market orientation level between the two groups is evaluated to give some managerial recommendations.

도형의 합동은 도형의 대칭이나 도형그리기를 배우는 데에 기본이 되며, 도형의 성질을 이해하고 모양을 그리는 능력을 기르게 할 수 있다. 도형의 합동을 공부해야 일상 생활에서 필요로 하는 디자인이나 아름다운 예술 작품에 대한 소양을 가질 수 있다. 하지만 합동 학습을 할 때에 개념을 형성하는데 드는 시간보다 종이를 자르고 도형의 본을 뜨는 행동과 같은 구체적 조작 시간이 많이 소요되기 때문에 학생들 간의 상호작용은 물론 교사와 학생들과의 상호작용 시간도 기대하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 초등학교 학생들에게 학습효과를 높일 수 있도록 상호작용 이론을 합동학습에 적용하여 학습자들이 합동의 개념을 쉽게 이해할 수 있도록 하였고 동시에 동시적 비동시적 의사소통이 가능한 웹상에서 실시하는 합동학습 코스웨어를 개발하고 적용하였다.

This study suggests that it is necessary to prove that the values of three areas of a triangle, which are obtained by the multiplication of the respective base and its corresponding height, are the same. It also seeks to deeply understand the meaning of Area formula of triangles by exploring some questions raised in the analysis of the proof. Area formula of triangles expresses the invariance of congruence and additivity on one hand, and the uniqueness of parallel line, one of the characteristics of Euclidean geometry, on the other. This discussion can be applied to introducing and developing exploratory learning on area in that it revisits the ordinary thinking on area.
