This study aims to present the necessity of 'mathematics for teacher' and advices for enhancing professionalism of mathematics teacher. Many mathematics teachers don't know formula giving roots of cubic and quartic equation which is presented as a example of mathematics for teacher, but they feel the necessity of professional knowledge like mathematics for teacher. As the role of mathematics teachers changes, professionalism in various fields is required. That is, they must be equipped with the belief and attitude as a professional and understand the content of mathematics for teacher and mathematics education theory. After all, loaming mathematics depends on the quality of mathematics teacher.

오늘날 수학교육에 있어서 가장 중요한 문제 중 하나는 학교수학의 인간교육적 기반을 회복하는 것이며, 이를 위해서는 '수학을 가르치는 이유는 무엇인가'라는 보다 근원적인 문제에 대한 논의가 새롭게 요구된다. 본 논문은 생활의 문제 해결이나 과학 기술을 위한 유용한 도구적 지식교육을 지향하는 오늘날 수학교육에 대한 문제 의식에서 출발한다. 먼저 '마음의 중층구조 이론에 비추어 이론적 지식 중심의 수학교육의 의미를 분석적으로 논의하고, 과거 교육사상사에서 수학교육이 어떤 인간교육적 이념을 추구해 왔는지를 Platen과 Froebel의 교육론을 통해서 살펴보았다. 그리고 20세기 초수학교육 개혁운동을 선도하여 현대의 수학교육 천학 및 수학 교육과정의 기본바탕을 제시한 F. Klein의 수학교육론을 고찰하였다. 특히 Klein의 수학교육 사상의 이면을 보다 명확히 드러내기 위하여, '마음의 중층구조'에 비추어 그의 수학교육론을 심성함양이라는 측면에서 재음미하였다. 또한 Klein의 수학교육 이념에 대한 보다 발전적인 논의를 위하여 Klein 이후 수학교육 발전과정에서 드러난 몇 가지 연구결과를 종합하여 심성함양으로서 '함수적 사고' 교육에 대한 발전적 고찰을 시도하였다. 이상과 같은 고찰을 통해 실용적 가치 추구로만 여겨졌던 오늘날의 수학 교육과정의 이면에 심성함양으로서의 인간교육적 가치가 핵심을 이루고 있으며, 수학교육은 그러한 가치 추구를 중시함으로써 심성함양에 기여해야 함을 논하였다.

Mathematics holds a key position among many subjects of school education. Besides having an instrumental value, mathematics for the general public has been underestimated. Thus, in this paper we examine how western educational theorists have emphasized the value of mathematics as humanities form of education. First of all, we discuss Platonism as a philosophical basis of the ancient Greek mathematics education. Next, we examine the thoughts of Froebel, who provided the theoretical basis for the public education since 19th century, and discuss the value of mathematics teaching in their humanistic educational thoughts. Also, we examine the humanistic value of mathematics education in Dewey\\`s educational philosophy, which criticized the traditional western ethics and epistemology, and established instrumentalism. In this paper, we recognize the humanistic values of mathematics education through the historical examination of the philosophies of mathematics education.

One of the most important concepts in the 7th curriculum of Korea is the student-centered education. Since educational evaluation has significant influence on the whole curriculum, if we realize the importance of the student-center education on the curriculum we should establish the student-centered educational evaluation system. Educational evaluation is defined by the theory of information to permit information users to identify, to measure, to manipulate and to communicate useful educational information concerning an educational curriculum for making decisions. If we accept the above definitions, the demands of information users are significant in the light of conceptual framework of educational evaluation. The purpose of this study is to analyze the conceptual framework of educational evaluation from information users' perspectives and to investigate the qualitative characteristics which satisfy information users' need for making decisions. We also show that students aren't provided sufficient evaluation results information to decide for their study plans by analyzing an evaluation study of the 7th primary curriculum. Finally, this study suggests how to improve an evaluation system for students in mathematics.

This study aims to reflect the origin and the meaning of open education and to derive pedagogical principles for open mathematics education. Open education originates from Socrates who was the founder of discovery learning and has been developed by Locke, Rousseau, Froebel, Montessori, Dewey, Piaget, and so on. Thus open education is based on Humanism and Piaget's psychology. The aim of open education consists in developing potentials of children. The characteristics of open education can be summarized as follows: open curriculum, individualized instruction, diverse group organization and various instruction models, rich educational environment, and cooperative interaction based on open human relations. After considering the aims and the characteristics of open education, this study tries to suggest the aims and the directions for open mathematics education according to the philosophy of open education. The aim of open mathematics education is to develop mathematical potentials of children and to foster their mathematical appreciative view. In order to realize the aim, this study suggests five pedagogical principles. Firstly, the mathematical knowledge of children should be integrated by structurizing. Secondly, exploration activities for all kinds of real and concrete situations should be starting points of mathematics learning for the children. Thirdly, open-ended problem approach can facilitate children's diverse ways of thinking. Fourthly, the mathematics educators should emphasize the social interaction through small-group cooperation. Finally, rich educational environment should be provided by offering concrete and diverse material. In order to make open mathematics education effective, some considerations are required in terms of open mathematics curriculum, integrated construction of textbooks, autonomy of teachers and inquiry into children's mathematical capability.

We propose a model-based method for information alignment using educational standards as a case study. Discrepancies and inconsistencies in educational standards across different states/cities hinder the retrieval and sharing of educational resources. Unlike existing educational standards alignment systems that only give binary judgments (either "aligned" or "not-aligned"), our proposed system classifies each pair of educational standard statements in one of seven levels of alignments: Strongly Fully-aligned, Weakly Fully-aligned, Partially-$aligned^{***}$, Partially-$aligned^{**}$, Partially-$aligned^*$, Poorly-aligned, and Not-aligned. Such a 7-level categorization extends the notion of binary alignment and provides a finer-grained system for comparing educational standards that can broaden categories of resource discovery and retrieval. This study continues our previous use of mathematics education as a domain, because of its generally unambiguous concepts. We adopt a materialization pattern (MP) model developed in our earlier work to represent each standard statement as a verb-phrase graph and a noun-phrase graph; we align a pair of statements using graph matching based on Bloom's Taxonomy, WordNet, and taxonomy of mathematics concepts. Our experiments on data sets of mathematics educational standards show that our proposed system can provide alignment results with a high degree of agreement with domain expert's judgments.

In this paper, we tried to establish the concept of 'Mathematics for Elementary Teachers(MET)'. There are 4 kinds of Mathematics for Teachers(MT). MET is one of tried to establish the concept in contradistinction to school mathematics(SM), mathematics, and Teaching Materials(TM). We suggested the outline of MET by suggesting the parts to which SM, MTs. The concept of MET is established variously according to various views. Here, we mathematics, and TM can not approach.

The researcher compared the curricula, the textbooks, the methods of didactic transposition, teacher practices of elementary and secondary mathematics education. The study reviewed several mathematics education theories in the aspect of the differences between the two levels. Findings from this study show a little difference between elementary and secondary mathematics education. There are special difficulties in didactic transposition in elementary mathematics education since it is so far from scientific mathematics. From this study we can conclude that further research needs to be done in the area of development of perspectives on elementary mathematics education.

The paper reviews of the constructivist view of mathematics and mathematics education. First of all, we shall study how mathematics has been treated as an object of cognition in philosophy or cognitive theories, what is changed in modern mathematics. It can lead us to understand the constructivist perspective on mathematics. Secondly, we will examine the view, the teaching and learning principles of mathematics education based on constructivism. Didactic transposition theory will be used as a frame of reference for this examination.
