  • In this paper, we study the effectiveness of college mathematics education by counseling freshman. And we discuss the effectiveness that the college mathematics education can be promoted throughout counseling freshman and by teaching examples in engineering mathematics in courses of calculus and differential equation and linear algebra.

  • The values and methods of mathematics education which mathematics teachers tried to impart to their students have varied historically according to the situations of each institution. The cases of the mathematics education in Cambridge University and University College, London show that the peculiar meanings or values of mathematics education were transmitted on students and the methods or focus of the teaching were uniquely determined under the influences of university examinations or conditions of students. In specific, the characteristic education of Augustus De Morgan who studied in Cambridge University and then taught in University College, London reveals better the different institutional contexts. In this paper, I suggest mathematics teachers reconsider mathematics learning motivations on their institutional contexts.

  • The article deals with the perceptions of Mathematics as a language of pre-service teachers of Mathematics in a College of Education in Israel. The formal language of studying in the College of Education is Hebrew. The goals of the study were to examine the perceptions of pre-service teachers on the following issues: the language components involved in learning Mathematics, the basic cognitive skills required for learning Mathematics, and the perception of Mathematics as a language (PML). Findings indicated that due to new attitudes in mathematical training, pre-service teachers of Mathematics perceived Mathematics as a language regarding all language components.

  • In Korea, many local university mathematics faculty knew that the institution faced serious student shortage problems and the restructuring and cut actions for such a mathematics major programs. In general, undergraduate mathematics education in korea is in the crisis. In general, lots of mathematics departments in korea was not prepared for such a severe risk. In this article, university mathematics education and research business are studied in the context of the size of korea-usa population, economy(such as GDP), SCI indices. Korea-usa university mathematics education profile data are presented to compare korea-usa university mathematics education business. Lots of precious data on mathematics education are being helped to prepare for the university mathematics education crisis.

  • In this paper, we discuss the backward extensions of Bergman shifts Wα(m), where $${\alpha}(m)\;:\;\sqrt{\frac{m}{m+1}},\;{\sqrt{\frac{m+1}{m+2}}},\;{\cdots},\;(m{\in}\mathbb{N})$$. We obtained a complete description of the n-hynonormality for backward one, two and three step extensions.

  • This paper presents a survey study aiming to systematically review research on mathematics education in China and identify important variables that should be considered in future research. The literature surveyed is selected from doctoral theses. The study reveals that important progress has been made over the last two decades. Following the review and discussion, the study proposes five needed directions for advancing research on mathematics education in China.

  • This study investigates the relationship of mathematics anxiety and achievement in college mathematics for engineering major freshman students. An revised and modified 30-item version of the Mathematics Anxiety Scale(MAS) was completed by 176 university engineering students enrolled in introductory calculus courses offered by the department of mathematics. Correlational analysis indicated complex interaction patterns between mathematics anxiety and mathematics achievement, depending on the level of anxiety. The results from this study confirm the negative correlation between mathematics anxiety and mathematics achievement in college mathematics for engineering major student, and also those support the claim that the relationships between mathematics anxiety and achievement have non-linear patterns.
