Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of using the play with multiplication activities based on Skemp's theory for mathematics achievements and attitudes toward mathematics of elementary school students. For this study, we rearranged Skemp's play activities according to our curriculum in the area of multiplication and applied them to the 2nd grade classes of an elementary school. The plays with multiplication activities were applied to the experimental group while traditional teaching method was used with the current mathematics textbook for the comparative group. We obtained the following conclusions: First, in terms of mathematics achievement, the experimental group who used the plays with multiplication activities based on Skemp's theory didn't show significant difference with the comparative group. Second, it proved that the plays with multiplication activities based on Skemp's theory was more effective for lower level of students than the higher level of students. Third, the plays with multiplication activities based on Skemp's theory have positive effects on improving students' attitudes toward mathematics. We need to use the plays with multiplication activities based on Skemp's theory in the classrooms and find problems with the applying the activities. In addition, we need to develop a more various activities based on Skemp's theory for a better teaching.
본 연구의 목적은 Skemp 이론에 따른 곱셈 놀이활동이 학생들의 수학학업성취도 및 수학적 태도에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위한 것이었다. 학생들이 수학에 대한 자신감과 흥미를 잃지 않도록 곱셈을 좀 더 재미있고 효과적으로 가르치기 위한 방법의 하나로써 Skemp 이론에 따른 놀이활동을 재구성하여 초등학교 2학년 학생들을 대상으로 실험집단과 비교집단으로 나누어 적용해 보고 수학학업성취도 및 수학적 태도에 미치는 효과를 알아보았다. 연구 결과, 첫째, Skemp 이론에 따른 곱셈 놀이활동은 수학학업성취도면에서 큰 효과가 나타나지 않았고, 둘째, Skemp 이론에 따른 곱셈 놀이 활동은 수학학업성취도면에서 중 상위 그룹보다 하위 그룹의 학생들에게 상대적으로 더 효과적이었으며, 셋째, Skemp 이론에 따른 곱셈 놀이활동은 학생들의 수학적 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 주었음을 알 수 있었다.
