Abstract

The present study is aimed to find the effect of the activity of writing a structured reflection journal in the learning process of PBL-based programming on the logical thinking of elementary school students. To achieve the objective, this study carried out an experiment with 59 elementary school students in the 5th grade. They were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group was applied with PBL-based programming classes by learning step, including learning of the contents, its procedure, and the activities of writing a critical reflection journal while the control group received learning of PBL-based programming including unstructured reflection journal. And then the difference in their logical thinking was compared and analyzed before and after th experiment. The results demonstrated that the experimental group showed a significant difference in logical thinking before and after writing structured reflection journal (ANCOVA) at the significance level of .05, which evidenced writing a structured reflection journal has learning effect. Intergroup comparison of logical thinking also showed that there was learning effect. Those findings suggest that writing a structured reflection journal in the PBL-based programming learning for 5th grade elementary school students has a positive effect on the learners' logical thinking.

본 연구는 초등학생을 대상으로 PBL 기반의 프로그래밍 학습 과정에서 구조화된 성찰일지 작성 활동이 논리적 사고력에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 성찰일지 작성 전후 논리적 사고력의 차이를 비교하여 효과를 분석하였다. 연구를 위해 초등학교 5학년 59명 학생들을 대상으로 실험집단과 통제집단을 구성하고 실험집단에는 PBL 기반의 프로그래밍 학습 단계별로 내용, 과정, 비판적 성찰일지 작성을 적용하였고 통제집단에는 PBL 기반의 프로그래밍 학습 단계별로 비구조화된 성찰일지 작성을 적용하였다. 연구 결과 실험집단의 구조화된 성찰일지 작성 전후의 논리적 사고력 차이를 공분산분석(ANCOVA)을 통해 분석한 결과 유의수준 .05에서 학습효과가 있음을 확인했고 통제집단과 논리적 사고력의 차이를 비교한 결과에서도 학습효과가 있음을 확인했다. 이를 통해 초등학교 5학년 학생을 대상으로 하는 PBL 기반의 프로그래밍 학습에서 구조화된 성찰일지 작성 학습자의 논리적 사고력 향상에 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다.
