Abstract

The purpose of this study is for developing and using project tasks which can be used to connect schooling and home education for the other days of 5days-schooling; to promote students' mathematical ability and to let students have positive cognitions toward mathematics and self-controled learning attitudes. For this study, two classes of 4th graders(56 students) were sampled from a school in D city. Half of them were assigned to the experiment group(EG) and the other to comparison group(CG). In the experiment group, students completed 16 project tasks and we investigated whether there is an effect on students' academic achievement and mathematical disposition. Two kinds of test instruments, pre-test and post-test were used. The pre-test scores guaranteed that both groups were homogeneous. Post-test scores were used to identify three effects and the post-test scores were analyzed by t-test. The result of this study is as follows: (1) There was significant difference between EG and CG in academic achievement (p=0.010). (2) There was significant difference between EG and CG in mathematical disposition(p=0.007). (3) There was no significant difference between EG's pre-test and post-test in mathematical disposition at the 5% significant level. But the average score of mathematical disposition improved from 3.3333 to 3.5375. Mathematical disposition was composed of 6 factors. One of them was mathematical value and there was significant difference between EG's pre-test and post-test at the 5% significance level(p=0.030). But other factors were not. The average scores of mathematical reflection improved a little. So we can say that the activities with project tasks brought an positive influence on students' mathematical disposition.

본 연구의 목적은 주5일 수업제의 근본 취지를 살릴 수 있는 방안의 하나로 학교와 가정을 연계할 수 있는 프로젝트형 과제를 개발 활용함으로써 학생들의 수학적 능력과 수학적 성향에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 알아보는데 있다. 본 연구에서는 초등학교 4학년 학생들에게 16차시에 걸친 프로젝트 과제를 투입하여 학업성취도와 수학적 성향의 변화를 알아보았다. 학업성취도에서는 유의수준 5%에서 p=0.010으로서 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났고, 수학적 성향에서도 p=0.007로서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 실험반의 사전과 사후의 수학적 성향은 전체적으로 큰 차이가 없었지만 평균은 약간 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 각 요인별로는 6가지 요인 중 수학적 가치에서 p=0.030으로서 유의수준 5%에서 유의한 차이가 있고, 나머지는 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었으나 평균은 수학적 반성을 제외하고는 모두 약간씩 높게 나왔다. 따라서 프로젝트 과제 활동은 주5일 수업제에 따른 여가 시간을 유용하게 활용하고, 부모를 자녀교육에 동참시킴으로써 학교교육에 대한 이해를 높일 수 있을 것이다.
