Cooperation is an essential element in mathematics education with independence. We observe cooperative learning and apply it to the education spot. We conducted cooperative learning experiment with students who were not ready for the prerequisite learning of college mathematics. We try to make up the prerequisite learning through collaborative learning to them. We discuss how cooperative learning affects the students who were not ready for the prerequisite learning of college mathematics.

Gifted education, receiving private tutoring and prerequisite learning, is emerging as a remarkable phenomenon currently in Korea. Hence, we need to find out that whether prerequisite math learning influences academic achievement in any aspect after they enter the center. In this paper, we investigate the effect of mathematics prerequisite learning of gifted students focused on the their self-efficacy, achievement motivation and academic achievement. As a result, the period of mathematics prerequisite learning did not influence academic achievement of gifted students. However, the correlation between self-efficacy and achievement motivation was positive.

Technical high school aims at educating students to acquire fundamental skill and technology required for being competent technicians, to be creative in adjusting themselves to the changing industrial society, and to do self-realization and find their ways toward the future on their own. To attain that goal and maximize learning effect, mathematics education is very important as prerequisite learning for technical subjects, as most technical courses in technical high school are basically based on mathematics. The purpose of this study was to discuss how mathematics education could be successfully linked to technical courses in an attempt to make it function properly as prerequisite learning for major subjects and facilitate students' technical learning. For that purpose, what problems the mathematics components of major subjects and the curriculum had was examined and the way to offer better education was presented. And there are some suggestions regarding mathematics education: First, technical mathematics should be newly inserted into technical high school curricula to help students learn major subjects in more efficient way. Second, most technical high schools are expected to just require tenth graders to complete a 10-stage mathematics course. In that case, they might find difficulties in learning major subjects when they are in their 11st and 12th grade. The curriculum should be designed to have 11st and 12th graders take mathematics education. Third, many students find a job after graduation, but the growing number of students go on to university to receive more education in the same field. Accordingly, there is a need to enlarge continuous progress plan, rather than completion-type one, to make students well-grounded technically. And mathematics should be taught in more classes as prerequisite subject for major courses. Fourth, mathematics elements necessary for each major subject should be outlined and announced to schools so that they could reorganize mathematics and major courses appropriately.

This study aims to investigate relationships among self-directed learning readiness [SDLR], prerequisite mathematics test score and achievement level in college mathematics. For this purpose, the adjusted SDLRS (self-directed learning readiness scale) of Guglielmino's model, the score of mathematics diagnostic assesment and first semester college mathematics score among 424 freshmen students of engineering department of D university in 2011 were used and analyzed. Research results are as follows: Firstly, freshmen of engineering department had average level of SDLR, though they showed relative low level of self-direction, passion and time control ability. Secondly, considering SDLR with the mathematics diagnostic assesment score (3 groups: high, middle, low), there were no statistically significant differences. Thirdly, concerning SDLR according to the achievement level in college mathematics, a group which acquired good achievement showed higher level of SDLR compared with middle or lowachievement group. Differences among three groups were statistically significant. Lastly, there were affirmative relationships between SDLR, mathematics diagnostic assesment score and achievement in college mathematics. Furthermore, mathematics diagnostic assesment score and achievement level in college mathematics were found to be the most closely related. Based on the results, we suggest strategies to elevate SDLR of engineering department students and improve their achievement in college mathematics.

The purpose of this study is to enhance the achievement in mathematics by developing compensatory learning materials and applying those to learning. The conclusions of this study are as follows. 1. Solving the learning tasks by cooperative learning guided instruction to learning by students from teaching by teacher, and it made learning effective and students cooperative in personal-relation 2. Learning materials for compensating learning deficit made students motivated and interested in mathematics, and active in learning. 3. By applying the learning materials for compensating prerequisite learning deficit, students could grasp learning contents and learning tasks, and their achievement could be enhanced. On the basis of problems which appeared in the progress of this study, the suggestions are as follows. 1, The necessity of mathematics in agricultural high schools should be recognized by students and various learning materials should be developed. 2. In cooperative learning, the roles of team-chiefs have a great influence on learning mood and problem-solving processes, they, therefore, must be directed beforehand so that they play the roles of leaders.

In this study, a men-tutoring model was applied to four second-year high school students in mathematics learning counseling that could cultivate cognitive and affective domains. By observing and analyzing the cases, we examined the effects of mathematics learning counseling on students' mathematical attitudes and self-regulated learning ability. The results of mentoring applied to mathematics learning counseling had a positive effect on reinforcing prerequisite learning, improving self-regulated learning ability, strengthening mathematical strategies, and inducing learning motivation and maintaining interest. We are looking forward to that men-tutoring can be used effectively for students who have difficulty learning mathematics.

Objective: In order to provide basic data that can strengthen the recognition of continuity of early childhood and primary education, early childhood education and early childhood special education teachers at inclusive child care and education settings participated in this study. Methods: The researchers conducted a survey on 192 early childhood teachers and 167 early childhood special education teachers in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do province. The collected data were analyzed statistically. Results: First, early childhood special education teachers were higher than early childhood teachers statistically on the prerequisite elements of continuity. Second, early childhood education teachers were higher than early childhood special education teachers statistically regarding the prerequisite educational techniques required for continuity of early childhood and primary education. In particular, early childhood teachers put more of an emphasis on learning and sociality-communication than early childhood special education teachers did. Conclusion/Implications: It is necessary that in-service education on prerequisite elements be stressed, and there be more detailed activities and education about programming and its utilization for early childhood special education teachers.

In this article, we develop a 'dynamic' approach to manufacturing improvement, based on perspectives of manufacturing learning and decision theory. First, we present an alternative definition of production system consistent with a decision-theoretic perspective: the system consists of structural, infra-structural, and decision making constructs. A primary proposition is that learning capability possessed by a manufacturing system be prerequisite for the system to improve its manufacturing performance through optimal controlling of the three constructs. To support the proposition, we elaborate on a mathematical representation of "learning" as defined in an applied setting. We show how the learning capability acts as an integrating force ameliorating the trade-off between two key manufacturing capabilities, i.e., process controllability and process flexibility.exibility.

In this paper, we propose an e-Learning process control model that aims to graphically describe and automatically generate the manifest of sequencing prerequisites in packaging SCORM's content aggregation models. In specifying the e-Learning activity sequencing, SCORM provides the concept of sequencing prerequisites to be manifested on each e-Learning activity of the corresponding tree-structured content organization model. However, the course developer is required to completely understand the SCORM's complicated sequencing prerequisites and other extensions. So, it is necessary to achieve an efficient way of packaging for the e-Learning content organization models. The e-Learning process control model proposed in this paper ought to be an impeccable solution for this problem. Consequently, this paper aims to realize a new concept of process-driven e-Learning content aggregating approach supporting the e-Learning process control model and to implement its e-Learning process modeling system graphically describing and automatically generating the SCORM's sequencing prerequisites. Eventually, the proposed model becomes a theoretical basis for implementing a SCORM-based e-Learning process management system satisfying the SCORM's sequencing prerequisite specifications. We strongly believe that the e-Learning process control model and its modeling system achieve convenient packaging in SCORM's content organization models and in implementing an e-Learning management system as well.
