The purpose of this paper is to examine current state of curriculum research and research methods used in the research in Korea. Results from the review of peer-reviewed research articles suggest that the ways in which the research studies on curriculum in Korea sorted out issues seemed to heavily concentrate on the written and intended curriculum by means of a document analysis. The topics of curriculum studies were biased in the studies of intended curriculum, and a significant number of curriculum studies were related to elementary levels. Regarding the research methods, the findings showed that many studies on mathematics curriculum have focused on national curriculum, textbooks, and curriculum materials, document analysis are the most frequently used methods in the studies of mathematics curriculum. We finally suggest pursuing various research topics and issues on curriculum, balancing weigh on the written and enacted curriculum, and deeper analysis and investigation of textbooks.

In this study, we introduced the concept of ‘case-method’ which is the method to discuss about actual education with a concrete case. And we suggested that case-method need to be applied a program for mathematics teacher professional development. To assist this suggestion, we attempted to examine recent mathematics educational studies that is written by case-study and topics that is included in mathematics teacher educational program. After these examination, we pointed out that case-method with a educational case have not applied in teacher education program in korea. According to the suggestion in this study, we showed a concrete example of case-method. In this example, we set up three perspectives(on general theory of mathematics education, on contents of given case, on application given case to own class) to analysis given case and revealed several disscussion topics each perspective. Finally, we referred to the following research of this paper.

This study investigated the perception and utilization about computer of beginning secondary mathematics teachers by utilization frequency of computer. To increase utilization frequency of computer in school mathematics, our finding shows that beginning secondary mathematics teachers should have an interest in computer utilization and perceive computers as an important tool for mathematics learning. In addition, they are likely to use more frequently computer under the condition that computers have sufficient class materials and supplement their shortcomings that have derived less usage in math classes. Therefore, future studies have to investigate not only how to develope textbooks and run after-school classes but also how to make creative discretional activities by computer, which makes computers more useful for teacher training. In sum, the results of case studies for computer usability should be released to motivate computer utilization and increase mathematical thinking ability.
