초록

본 논문은 CAS 계산기를 사용한 학습을 하고난 후의 고등학교 수학학습부진아 중 남녀 학생의 수학학업성취도에 차이가 있는지를 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 수학학습부진아를 선정하여 두 집단으로 나누었다. 한 집단은 처치집단으로 지필과 CAS 계산기를 사용하여 활동지를 학습하고, 다른 집단은 통제집단으로 지필만을 사용하여 활동지를 학습하였다. 이러한 학습의 전과 후에 지필평가를 실시하였다. 각 집단 학생들의 수학학업성취도를 살펴본 결과, 통제집단의 남학생과 여학생의 수학학업성취도가 유의미한 차이가 없는 것처럼, 처치집단의 남학생과 여학생의 수학학업성취도에서도 차이가 없었다. 처치집단의 남학생과 통제집단의 남학생의 수학학업성취도 비교와 처치집단의 여학생과 통제집단의 여학생의 수학학업성취도 비교에서는 모두 처치집단의 학생들이 더 높은 성취를 이루었다.

This paper analyzed about gender difference in the achievement of underachievers of high school students while learning using technology. Participants were composed of 67 underachievers on first grade in high school located in a metropolitan city. That had never used a mathematics educational calculator before. Target participants were divided into two groups: experiment group that studied activity papers with a CAS calculator. And control group that studied the same activity papers using only paper-and-pencil. The content of the activity papers for the two groups was the same, but the structure differed. The two groups completed mathematics achievement tests both before and after the activity papers. The results are that find out no difference of the mathematics achievement between boys and girls in each group, and that the mathematics achievement of boys in experiment group are better than one of boys in control group, and also girls.
