Abstract

This study is a qualitative study on the case of teaching mathematics between parents and children. 12 lesson units were applied to the 5th grade elementary school child for the first semester, 2019. The purpose of this study was to identify conceptual understanding in the area, the types of problems that child felt difficult during the learning and parents' advantages and difficulties in this setting. For this study, video recording and voice recording were collected for each lesson class. The concept of the area was recognized correctly, the awareness of reconstruction became clear, and the concept of partitioning, unit iteration and structuring an array was more clearly rebuilt. He showed difficulty in conversion between units of the area, in displaying height of the shape whose height is displayed outside and drawing type of figure with same area after the value of the area was offered. In the learning situation of parents and children, parents who are researchers have the advantage of being able to customize up to their children and being free from time and cost constraints. There were difficulties in controlling negative emotion toward the child, determining the level of the children, distribution the class time and deciding the degree of intervention. Furthermore, research on parenting and child-to-parent teaching in mathematics is recommended.

본 연구는 부모와 자녀 간 수학학습 지도 사례에 대한 질적 연구로, 초등학교 5학년 자녀에게 교구 활동 중심수업을 적용하면서 자녀의 넓이 개념의 습득과정과 어려움을 느끼는 문제 유형, 그리고 부모와 자녀의 학습 상황에서 부모가 겪는 장점과 어려움을 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 총 12차시 지도안을 구성하여 2019년 1학기에 수업을 진행하면서 관찰과 면담을 통해 자료 수집을 하였다. 아이는 수업을 통해 넓이 개념을 정확하게 인식하게 되었는데, 보존 중 재구성에 대한 인식이 생겼으며, 분할, 단위 반복, 배열 구성에 대한 개념도 더 명확하게 인식하였다. 넓이 수업 과정 중 넓이 단위 간 변환, 높이가 외부에 표시되는 도형의 높이 표시, 넓이를 제시한 후 같은 넓이를 가진 도형 그리기 유형의 문제에서 어려움을 보였다. 부모와 자녀의 학습 상황에서 연구자인 부모는 자녀에 대한 맞춤 수업이 가능하고 기회와 비용의 제약을 받지 않는다는 장점을 가졌으나 자녀에 대한 감정 제어와 자녀의 수준 파악, 수업 시간 배분, 개입 수준을 정하는데 어려움이 있었다. 본 연구결과를 통해 부모와 자녀 간 활동 중심의 수학 학습 지도와 관련하여 앞으로 더 많은 연구가 이루어지길 기대한다.
