Abstract

The purpose of this study were to identify the effect of thesis-writing activity based project method on the ability of girl's middle school student's self directed learning(SDL) and learning attitude. To achieve above study purpose, the subject of this study were selected 60 from second-grade students of reading club(thesis-writing activities participants 30, non-participants 30), applied a program based project method to experimental group, to carry out a pre-post examined targeting two-group with early making a SDL ability and learning attitude inventory, and the results of the data were analyzed by t-test using the SPSS(Ver. 18). The results were as follows: In the aspect of SDL ability development by thesis-writing activity, the student participant showed somewhat significant differences compared to the non-participants. First, a openess, inner-motivation, autonomy, self-conception of SDL ability was significantly higher than those non-participants. Second, confidence, success expert, attention, effectiveness, affection of learning attitude was significantly higher than those non-participants. These results represent that various programs, which can develop SDL ability and learning attitude, can be provided for youth when they join any thesis-writing activity based project method in general and those programs are also very effective in developing SDL ability and learning attitude of juveniles. Furthermore, It is suggested that thesis-writing activity based project method are a necessary element at the school education fields.

본 연구는 프로젝트 학습에 기반한 논문쓰기 활동이 여중생의 자기주도학습 능력과 학습태도에 미치는 효과를 알아보는 데 있다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 Y시 소재 여자중학교 2학년 독서반 동아리생 60명을 대상으로 30명씩을 실험집단과 비교집단으로 각각 나눈 후, 실험집단을 대상으로 10주에 걸쳐 4단계 프로그램인 프로젝트 학습에 기반한 논문쓰기 활동을 구안하여 적용하였다. 두 집단을 대상으로 자기주도학습 능력 검사와 학습태도 검사를 사전 사후로 실시했고, SPSS 18.0 통계분석프로그램을 이용한 t-검증을 통해 분석하였다. 연구의 결과는 첫째, 자기주도학습 능력의 하위 변인 중 개방성, 내재적 동기, 자율성, 자아개념 영역에서 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 둘째, 학습태도의 자신감, 성공기대, 주의집중, 효과성, 열의 영역에서 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 이러한 연구 결과로 볼 때, 여중생의 자기주도학습 능력과 학습태도를 강화하기 위한 다양한 교육프로그램을 계획할 때, 프로젝트 학습에 기반한 방법들이 적극적으로 시도되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.
