Suggestions on
Preparation and
Review
About the first to eighth class, you should gather and read sufficiently practical earlier studies in methodology of Mathematics education.
About the ninth to 15th class, you should classify and list the results of annual study, make a presentation about it in an academic meeting of Mathematics education, send a dissertation to academic journals, and prepare to connect the study to your doctoral dissertation. 
Requirements I limit attendees to the students majoring in the field of Mathematics Educationin in the Doctoral Course in Division of Educational Sciences Educational Design for Teacher Educators Program. 
Grading Method Students to be evaluated on the presentation and debate (50%) and reports on subject (50%).
