(May not be suited for academic development?)- The curriculum is not as systematic as in Japan. (There are topics for which the educational intent is not clear.)- The content of classes up to high school in Japan is crammed into the first 10 grades. (Progress is faster than in Japan.)- Problems use numeric values that take a long time to calculate. (Time consuming to handle in class.)- Math test in National Achievement Test is in the form of multiple-choice questions. (Can be answered without thinking it through.)- Problems require memorization of terms and can be solved by substituting values into a formula. (Do not learn to think.)=> In contrast, mathematical ways of thinking are taught in detail in Japan (e.g., the concept of the base and height of a triangle).
- Lesson studies among teachers are rarely held.

Many pages are devoted to
how to think through to findthe area of a triangle.
Two ways of thinking areexplained to show that thearea can be determined byeither method. Then, ageneralized approach ispresented.

The textbook explains theconcept of base and height
to make the students think.
These problems not only
make students calculate but
also make them think anddevise their own methods.

textbook
Students are asked to think
through how to find the areaof a triangle based on what
they have already learned.
The emphasis is on
application andsystematization of what has
been learned so far.
