The Effects of Problem Posing Program through Structure-Centered Cooperative Learning on Mathematics Learning Achievements and Mathematical Disposition

구조중심 협동학습을 통한 문제 만들기 학습이 수학학업성취도 및 수학적 성향에 미치는 효과

The purpose of this study is to test if problem posing based on structural approach cooperative learning has a positive effect on mathematical achievement and mathematical disposition. For this purpose, this study carried out tasks as follows: First, we design a problem posing teaching learning program based on structural approach cooperative learning. Second, we analyze how problem posing based on structural approach cooperative learning affects students' mathematical achievement. Third, we analyze how problem posing based on structural approach cooperative learning affects students' mathematical disposition. The results of this study are as follows: First, in the aspect of mathematical achievement, the experimental group who participated in the problem posing program based on structural approach cooperative teaming showed significantly higher improvement in mathematical achievement than the control group. Second, in the aspect of mathematical disposition, the experimental group who participated in the problem posing program based on structural approach cooperative teaming showed positive changes in their mathematical disposition. Summing up the results, through problem posing based on structural approach cooperative learning, students made active efforts to solve problems rather than fearing mathematics and, as a result, their mathematical achievement was improved. Furthermore, through mathematics classes enjoyable with classmates, their mathematical disposition was also changed in a positive way.

본 연구에서는 초등학교 5학년 학생들을 대상으로 구조중심 협동학습을 적용한 문제 만들기 학습이 수학학업성취도 및 수학적 성향에 어떠한 효과가 있는지를 분석하여 초등학교 학습지도에 도움을 줄 수 있는 교수-학습 방법을 제공하기 위한 것이다. 여기서 활용한 문제 만들기 학습 유형은 송민정(2004)의 내용을 참고로 하였으며, 협동학습 구조를 수업 시에 적절히 활용함으로써 학생들에게 수학에 대한 관심과 흥미를 유발시켜서 학업성취도 및 수학적 성향에 긍정적인 영향이 있음을 알 수 있었다.
