초등학교 교직수학에 관한 연구(2) - 교육대학교 교양수학 교재 분석 및 초등학교 교직수학 교수요목 탐색

In this paper, we tried to analyze 7 textbooks for liberal mathematics in elementary teacher's colleges in Korea and 3 foreign textbooks (2 American textbooks and 1 Japan textbook) which are believed to be used for pre-service education. We tried also to analyze in 3 lesson plans in homepages of Japan teacher's colleges. Next we tried to grope for syllabus of Mathematics for Elementary Teachers, and we suggested one syllabus. But we think that syllabus as a tentative one. So, it must be criticized by other researchers to be better one.
