Abstract

Continuous probability distribution was one of the mathematics concept that students had difficulty. This study analyzed the definition and introduction of the continuous probability distribution under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum. In this study, the following subjects were studied. Firstly, definitions of continuous probability variable in 'Probability and Statistics' textbook developed under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum were analyzed. Secondly, introductions of continuous probability distribution in 'Probability and Statistics' textbook developed under the 2009-revised curriculum and 2015-revised curriculum were analyzed. The results of this study were as follows. First, 8 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable with all the real values within a range or an interval. And 1 textbook under the 2009-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable when the set of its value is uncountable. But all textbooks under the 2015-revised curriculum defined the continuous probability variable as probability variable with all the real values within a range. Second, 4 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum and 4 textbooks under 2015-revised curriculum introduced a continuous random distribution using an uniformly distribution. And 5 textbooks under the 2009-revised curriculum and 5 textbooks under the 2015-revised curriculum introduced a continuous random distribution using a relative frequency density.

본 연구는 2009개정 교육과정과 2015개정 교육과정을 반영한 교과서에서 연속확률분포를 정의하고 도입하는 방법에 대해 비교 분석하였다. 2015개정 교육과정을 반영한 확률과 통계 교과서는 연속확률변수를 가부번집합인 확률변수로 정의하기보다는 특정 범위의 모든 실숫값을 가지는 확률변수로 정의하였다. 또한 연속확률분포를 도입함에 있어 균등분포를 이용한 방법과 상대도수밀도를 이용한 방법을 사용하였다.
