Abstract
The major goals of this study are to find the factors that enhance self-directed math learning in college math classes and to provide the students with the opportunities to check and develop their self-directed math learning attitude. For these research goals, we prepared the questionnaires that asked about their learning motivations, basic learning ability, self-discipline strategies, and self-directed learning strategies. Another purpose of the questionnaires was to give them the chances to check and improve their attitude toward those learning strategies, motivation and ability. From the research results, we find that the important factors for self-directed learning are internal & external motivations, concentration ability, and the goal-setting and plan-making abilities. In addition, concentration ability, good habit, stress-control, recognition of math value, and self-directing ability are found to be necessary for the desirable learning environment. On the other hand, we find that the ability to perform note-taking, class preparation and review, time-control, and test-control is required for the selection and practice of self-fitting learning strategies. Finally, we provided our own self-directed math learning model. Our model, containing the necessary factors for self-directed math learning, is the revised and modified one of Knowles(1975)'s 5 stage self-directed learning model that comprises diagnosis of learning desire, setting learning goals, grasping human&material resources, selection and practice of proper learning strategies, and evaluation of learning results.
대학수학교육에서 학생들이 자기주도 수학학습방법을 깨우쳐 학습에 대한 자신감을 갖도록 하는 자기주도 수학학습을 할 수 있는 방법을 위한 연구욕구를 진단할 수 있는 내재적, 외재적 동기와 집중능력, 그리고 자기효능감이 있으며, 학습목표를 설정하기 위한 목표세우기와 계획능력이 있다. 그리고 인적 물적인 학습 환경 조성을 위해서는 집중능력, 습관, 스트레스, 수학적 가치, 자기주도능력이 필요하고 학습전략의 선정과 실천을 위해서는 필기, 예습과 복습, 시간관리, 시험관리에 대한 전략을 세우고 이를 실천하는 방법이 필요하다. 마지막으로 대학수학에서 자기주도 수학학습에 필요한 요인과 Knowles(1975)의 자기 주도적 학습 5단계모형인 학습욕구 진단, 학습목표 설정, 학습을 위한 인적 및 물적 자원 파악, 적절한 학습전략 선정 및 이행, 학습 결과 평가를 수정 보완하여 자기주도수학학습모형을 개발하였다.
