Abstract

The purpose of this study is to affirm what influences the lessons applied by reorganizing the ratio-graph unit of level 6-A on the basis on Realistic Mathematics Education(RME) give on mathematical scholastic achievements and mathematical preferences.In order to achieve the purpose of this study, the experimental study was exerted by making two classes of 6 grades in J elementary school located in Gumi city, Gyeongbuk province as subjects. In this study, test of degree of the mathematics learning ability of student, multiple-choice test and descriptive test of the learning dispositions of student were exerted and the results were t-test officially. The results and the conclusions of this study were as follows: First, the results acquired by officially t-test the levels of the mathematics learning ability of student of the group taught by lessons according to the teaching materials reorganized on the basis of RME and the group taught by lessons according to the 7th curriculum show a meaningful difference(p=.007). This means that the lessons according to the teaching materials reorganized on the basis of RME showed meaningful influences on the improvement of degree of the mathematics learning ability of student. Second, the results acquired by officially t-test the learning dispositions of student multiple-choice test of the group taught by lessons according to the teaching materials reorganized on the basis of RME and the group taught by lessons according to the 7th curriculum show a meaningful difference. Especially in the factors of 'mathematical will'(p=.017) and 'mathematical value'(p=.029) were meaningful differences. Also in the descriptive test of the learning dispositions of student, the experimental class showed that it had the potential possibility to have more positive attitudes meaningfully in comparison with the compared class. This means that the lessons according to the teaching materials reorganized on the basis of RME showed meaningful influences on the learning dispositions of student.

본 연구에서는 현실주의 수학교육 이론을 바탕으로 '비율그래프' 단원을 재구성한 수업이 학생들의 수학 학업성취도와 수학적 성향에 어떤 영향을 주는지를 알아봄으로써 교실 수업을 개선하기 위한 것이다. 연구 대상은 6학년 학생 68명(실험반 34명, 비교반 34명)이었으며, 수업은 MiC 교재를 참고하여 재구성한 프로그램을 8차시에 걸쳐 실시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 얻은 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 현실주의 수학교육론에 근거하여 재구성한 교재를 활용한 수업이 학습자의 수학 학업성취도 향상에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 둘째, 현실주의 수학교육론에 근거하여 재구성한 교재를 활용한 수업이 학습자의 수학적 성향에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다.
