Abstract

This study analyzed changes of representations which had come up in the problem-solving process of math-gifted 6th grade students that ACODESA had been applied. The class was designed on a ACODESA procedure that enhancing the use of varied representations, and conducted for 40minutes, 4 times over the period. The recorded videos and interviews with the students were transcribed for analysing data. According to the result of the analysis, which adopted Despina's using type of representation, there appeared types of 'adding', 'elaborating', and 'reducing'. This study found that there is need for a class design that can make personal representations into that of public through small group discussions and confirmation in the problem-solving process.

본 연구는 초등학교 6학년 수학 영재 학생을 대상으로 ACODESA 방법을 적용한 문제해결 과정에서 나타나는 표상 사용의 유형을 분석하였다. 수업 설계는 다양한 표상의 조직화된 사용을 강화시키는 ACODESA 방법에 따라 이루어졌으며 40분 동안 4차시에 걸쳐 수업이 진행되었다. 자료 분석을 위해 동영상 촬영, 학생과의 인터뷰 등을 수집하여 녹취록을 작성하였고, Despina(2011)의 표상 사용유형에 따라 표상의 변화를 분석한 결과 추가형, 정교화, 그리고 제한형이 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 통해 문제해결 과정에서는 개인적 표상이 소그룹별 토론과 확인의 과정을 거쳐 제도적 표상으로 생성될 수 있는 수업 설계가 필요함을 알 수 있었다.
