초등학교 수학에서 함수적 사고는 매우 중요하지만, 함수적 사고를 지도하는 데 중요한 역할을 하는 교사에 대한 연구는 부족한 편이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 함수적 사고를 지도하기 위한 수학 과제 및 수업 전략에 대한 지식을 살펴보기 위하여 검사 도구를 개발한 후 초등학교 교사 119명을 대상으로 조사하였다. 분석 결과, 초등학교 교사들은 대부분 곱셈 관계와 덧셈 관계의 과제를 적절하게 개발할 수 있었고, 비연속적인 대응표의 활용과 같은 수업 전략에 대하여 함수적 사고 지도의 측면에서 설명할 수 있었다. 반면 일부 교사들은 함수적 사고에 대한 중요한 아이디어를 충분히 이해하지 못했다. 연구 결과를 토대로, 함수적 사고를 지도하기 위한 초등학교 교사의 지식에 관하여 시사점을 논의하였다.

In 2005, A. Saxena, B. Soh and S. Priymak [10] proposed a two-flow blind identification protocol. But it has a weakness of the active-intruder attack and uses the pairing operation that causes slow implementation in smart cards. In 2008, Y. W. Lee [9] made a method of the active-intruder attack on their identification scheme and proposed a new zero-knowledge blind identification protocol for smart cards. In this paper, we give more simple and fast protocols than above protocols such that the prover using computationally limited devices such as smart cards has no need of computing the bilinear pairings. Computing the bilinear pairings is needed only for the verifier and is secure assuming the hardness of the Discrete-Logarithm Problem (DLP).

The purpose of this study was to analyze how elementary pre-service teachers learned the pedagogical content knowledge of mathematics and to understand the challenges and difficulties that they experienced in the course of student teaching. A qualitative case study provided an in-depth description of the whole three weeks of student teaching process. Four pre-service teachers and two mentor teachers participated in this study. Multiple data collection techniques were used; classroom observations, in-depth interviews, document analysis, and researcher's field notes. The results of this study showed how pre-service teachers learn PCK of mathematics in designing mathematics lessons, understanding mathematics learners and delivering mathematics lessons and what are the difficulties and challenges they experienced. Finally this study discussed about some suggestions to pre-service program and future research.

Inspite of many strengthens of storytelling mathematics education, some problems are expected: when math is taught in concrete contexts, students may have trouble to extract concepts, to transfer to noble and abstract contexts, and they may experience inert knowledge problem. Low achieving students are particularly prone to these issues. To solve these problems some suggestions are made by the author. These are analogous encoding and progressive formalism. Using analogous encoding method students can construct concepts and schema more easily and transfer knowledge which shares structural similarity. Progressive formalism is an effective way of introducing concepts progressively moving from concrete contexts to abstract context.

This paper presents the Global van Hiele (GVH) questionnaire as a tool for mapping knowledge and understanding of plane and solid geometry. The questionnaire facilitates identification of the respondents' mastery of the first three levels of thinking according to van Hiele theory with regard to key geometrical topics. Teacher-educators can apply this questionnaire for checking preliminary knowledge of mathematics teaching candidates or pre-service teachers. Moreover, it can be used when planning a course or granting exemption from studying in basic geometry courses. The questionnaire can also serve high school mathematics teachers who are interested in exposing their students to multiple-choice questions in geometry.

Statistical thinking has a broad definition but focuses on the context of regression modelling in the present study. To foster students' statistical thinking within the context, teaching should no longer be seen as transfer of knowledge from teacher to students but as a process of engaging with learning activities in which they develop ownership of knowledge. This study aims at collaborative learning contexts; students were divided into small groups in order to increase opportunities for peer collaboration. Each group of students was asked to do a regression project after class. Through doing the project, they learnt to organize and connect previously accrued piecemeal statistical knowledge in an integrated manner. They could also clarify misunderstandings and solve problems through verbal exchanges among themselves. They gave a clear and lucid account of the model they had built and showed collaborative interactions when presenting their projects in front of class. A survey was conducted to solicit their feedback on how peer collaboration would facilitate learning of statistics. Almost all students found their interaction with their peers productive; they focused on the development of statistical thinking with concerted effort.

This study analyzes sexism in children's picture books that incorporate mathematical problems and problem-solving into the plot to determine if children's earliest reading material is affecting the achievement gap between males and females in this subject area. The study focused not just on overall totals of male and female characters, but also analyzed which genders most often portrayed gender stereotyped behaviors and personality traits and which characters were most often shown with mathematical skills. The findings of the study show that there were twice as many male as female characters, and the math problem-solving was generally done by males in the majority of titles.

The purpose of this study is to provide mathematical knowledge for supporting the didactical knowledge on circular measure and radian in the high school curriculum. We show that circular measure related to arcs can be mathematically justified as an angular measure and radian is a well defined concept to be able to reconcile the values of trigonometric functions and ones of circular functions, which are real variable functions. Radian has two-fold intrinsic attributes of angular measure and arc measure on the unit circle, in particular, the latter property plays a very important role in simplifying the trigonometric derivatives. To improve students's low academic achievement in trigonometry section, the useful advantage and the background over the introduction of radian should be preferentially taught and recognized to students. We suggest some teaching plans to practice in the class of elementary and middle school for enhancing teachers' and students' understanding of radian.

When taught the precise definition of ${\pi}$, students may be simply asked to memorize its approximate value without developing a rigorous understanding of the underlying reason of why it is a constant. Measuring the circumferences and diameters of various circles and calculating their ratios might just represent an attempt to verify that ${\pi}$ has an approximate value of 3.14, and will not necessarily result in an adequate understanding about the constant nor formally proves that it is a constant. In this study, we aim to investigate prospective teachers' conceptual understanding of ${\pi}$, and as a constant and whether they can provide a proof of its constant property. The findings show that prospective teachers lack a holistic understanding of the constant nature of ${\pi}$, and reveal how they teach students about this property in an inappropriate approach through a proving activity. We conclude our findings with a suggestion on how to improve the situation.

Cognitive psychology has provided valuable theoretical perspectives on learning mathematics. Based on the metaphor of the mind as an information processing device, educators and psychologists have developed detailed models of competence in a variety of areas of mathematical skill and understanding. Unquestionably, these models are an asset in thinking about the curriculum we want our students to follow. But any psychological paradigm has aspects of learning and knowledge that it accounts for well, and others that it accounts for less well. For instance, the paradigm of cognitive science gives us valuable models of the knowledge we want our students to acquire; but in picturing the mind as a computational device it reduces us to conceiving of learning in individualist terms. It is less useful in helping us develop effective learning communities in our classrooms. In this paper I review some of the significant accomplishments of cognitive psychology for mathematics education, and some of the directions that situated cognition theorists are taking in trying to understand knowing and learning in terms that blend individual and social perspectives.
