ABSTRACT

Utilizations of Information Media in Mathematics Education

Lee, Ju Hee Major in Mathematics Education Graduate School of Education Sungshin Women's University Supervised by Kang, Byung Gai, Ph. D.

In the society of rapidly evolving informations, various information media have been developed in the field of education and also there has been a trend to utilize them in school. Because there are too much information coming from various media, it is true that both teachers and students are in trouble to choose and take advantage of adequate information properly. In this paper, we investigate some information media to help students with learning mathematics and suggest useful methods to utilize them in school mathematics. As a result, we have the following conclusions; We classify some information media useful in Mathematics Education into five categories; the computer software, internet materials, E-learning, smart pads and smart phones, IPTV and smart TV. We also classify each of these into detail sub-categories. Some of them are applied actively to current mathematics educations but others have some problems to be utilized because they have been developed recently or have not so easy manual. By utilizing information media in the field of education, we may expect that our students have more opportunity to motivate themselves through various experiences. On the other hand, we have to maintain our moderate position because the abuse or overemphasize of those information media may result the departure from the main stream of mathematics education. It may be an inevitable choice to utilize information media in school mathematics in the information-oriented society. Therefore, it may be our urgent issue to provide appropriate curricula, instructional materials and legal, institutional frameworks to support them.
