In study we reflect on the role of teachers to create mathematical processes through developingmathematics lessons redesigned mathematical activities designed before lesson through therelations between teacher and student with teaching-materials in learning and teaching forstudents in High School. The purpose of this paper is to elucidate whether what teachers listen tostudent's mathematical ideas role in redesigning mathematical activities for students. In this paper we reflect whether what teachers listen to student's mathematical ideas role in redesigning mathematical activities for students on coordinate geometry and trigonometric function for 10 students in High School. The result of the reflection was that it is suggested that what teachers listen to student's mathematical ideas uncover student's mathematical ideas in process of mathematical problem solving through correlate contexts and situations in problems with leaned mathematics and teachers discover a part of new aspects of what students learn in mathematics lessons. As a result, it is important for creating student's mathematical processes in mathematics lessons to develop lessons through teachers redesign mathematical activities designed beforelesson.

Research paper (international conference proceedings) Single author
The purpose of this study was to develop teaching materials for 6th-grade elementary school students in Japan, focusing on retroductive inference, to develop their statistical thinking and explain its use. Recently, MEXT (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) has made “Programming Education” compulsory at elementary schools in Japan. The purpose of “Programming Education” in Japan is to develop the programming thinking of students based on their computational thinking and enhance their academic ability in teaching and learning a particular subject, rather than learn coding. However, few studies have been conducted on the development of programming thinking based on computational thinking, for enhancing the academic ability of students. “Retroduction” is effective in promoting computational thinking. Also, the development of mathematical and computational thinking is interacted by one another. Therefore, we developed a teaching material to enable the students to engage in retroductive inference. A context and situation setting were provided to them to make retroductive inferences. The results indicated that it seems reasonable to assume that the teaching material promoted their computational thinking and developed their statistical thinking by creating phases for retroductive inferences.

TEACHERS’ ROLES IN CULTIVATING STUDENTS’ MATHEMATICAL ATTITUDES IN MATHEMATICS CLASSES: THE CASE OF GEOMETRICAL FIGURES
Shinichi Kato, Akira Morimoto, Mao Obara
15th International Congress on Mathematical Education 2024.07 - 2024.07
This study aims to examine the role of teaching material teachers design and develop for mathematics classes in cultivating students’ mathematical attitudes. We studied a mathematics class in which eighth-grade students learned about geometrical figures. The results indicate that teachers’ design and development activities in mathematics classes play an important role in cultivating students’ mathematical attitudes.

THE CURRENT STATUS AND CHALLENGES OF DESIGNING MATHEMATICAL ACTIVITIES FOR HEARING-IMPAIRED STUDENTS USING ICT
Akira Morimoto, Mao Obara, Shinichi Kato
15th International Congress on Mathematical Education 2024.07 - 2024.07
In order to encourage hearing-impaired students to organize his or her own experience, we focus on designing mathematical activities for them usig ICT. We reflect on designing mathematical activities for hearing-impaired students using ICT and construct perspectives on it. In this study we first show our point of view on designing mathematical activities for hearing-impaired students using ICT. Then we present how teachers use ICT in designing them. At last as some implications for designing mathematical activities for hearing-impared students using ICT, we refer to the importance of encouraging their exploratory use of ICT.

REFLECTION ON THE ANXIETY OF HEARING-IMPAIRED STUDENTS ASPIRING TO BECOME MATHEMATICS TEACHERS REGARDING THE UNDERSTANDING AND COMMUNICATION OF FUNCTIONS
Mao Obara, Akira Morimoto, Shinichi Kato
15th International Congress on Mathematical Education 2024.07 - 2024.07
In order to encourage hearing-impaired students to construct mathematical knowledge, we focus on enhancing expertise in mathematics education and deaf and hard of hearing education for teachers. We reflect on the anxiety of hearing-impaired students aspiring to become mathematics teachers and construct a view of it. In this study we first show a view of the anxiety of hearing-impaired students aspiring to become mathematics teachers and then present what kind of anxiety hearing-impaired students experience regarding the understanding of functions and communication. At last as some implications for overcoming anxiety in hearing-impaired students, we refer to the importance of activities of negociating the meaning mathematical conception.

PROGRAMMING DEVELOP MATHEMATICAL THINKING: CASE OF STATISTIC
Shinichi Kato
14th International Congress on Mathematical Education 2021.07 - 2021.07
The purpose of this paper is to develop and consider programming teaching-materials to develop statistical thinking. In this paper, I consider it. The result of the consideration is that it is suggested that elementary school students reflect method of statistical problem solving through considering program to judge true or fail of coins.
