Abstract :
The main purpose of this research is to probe the adaptability of incorporating information into teaching of mathematics and the ability of making teaching-media then to consider whether it is suitable to incorporate information into the concepts of mathematics-teaching. Therefore, it will be the reference of development of teaching resources. In accordance with the norm of the annual detailed catalogue of grade 6-7th mathematics course outline of Nine-year Consistent Curriculum (NCC),the researcher makes out the questionnaire, sampling 26 mathematics teachers in clusters from 26 junior high schools of south Taiwan to probe the applicable items which can access the adaptability of ICT incorporating to teaching. The result is as follows: (1). all mathematics concepts are suitable for information to incorporate with ICT, which have a higher degree of adaptability with the concepts of "number and number" and "geometry" categories. (2). The teacher thinks it unable to design information to incorporate media\´s material by oneself. (3). The categories which are related to the symbol of figure form and the concepts of calculating have higher requirement of incorporating mathematics-teaching into ICT. (4). The concept of incorporating information into mathematics teaching with "geometry" as the primary symbol, superior to traditional teaching method, is specially to stand out the teaching effectiveness of geometry calculation.
