Abstract
In this study, the researchers analyzed the 2015 revised 3rd~6th grade Korean mathematics textbooks from the aspects of social justice in mathematics education. For this study, the researchers constructed a textbook analysis framework for social justice subjects, which categorized by social issues, economy education, democratic education, personality education, safety education, environmental education, and career education. As a result, the 2015 revised elementary mathematics textbooks were reflected the subject matter of social justice in the order of social issues, economic education and democratic education, personality education and environmental education, safety education and career education. Also, the subject of social justice appears in all 3rd~6th grade mathematics textbooks, but it is not explicitly dealt with by combining it with mathematical content. The researchers suggested that mathematics lessons should be developed including social justice issues aligned with elementary mathematics contents.
