Abstract

This study analyzed the process of establishing a social structure in a third-grade mathematics classroom for one semester and explored learning processes based on various social interactions and relationships between the teacher and students. In the early phase of the semester, main foci were placed on establishing an overall social norms and basic social structure for effective mathematical learning. In the middle phase of the semester, an emphasis among students' interactions was given to exploration of mathematical concepts. Students tended to ask whatever they did not know exactly and clearly understood what to explain. In the late phase of the semester, students' individual disposition was further considered. Disciplinary personality traits including intellectual courage, honesty, consideration, and cooperation were emphasized along with mathematical exploration. Based on these research results, this study was intended to provide implications for implementing more meaningful mathematics lessons by fully considering not only mathematical connections but also social connections.

본 연구는 한 학기 동안의 3학년 수학 수업에서 해당 교실의 사회적 구조를 형성하는 과정을 분석하고 그 속에서 교사와 학생, 학생과 학생 간의 다양한 사회적 상호작용 및 관계를 바탕으로 학습이 이루어지는 과정을 탐색하였다. 탐색 결과, 학기 초반에는 전반적인 사회적 규범의 형성과 함께 생산적인 수학 학습을 위한 여러 가지 기본적인 사회적 구조를 형성하는 데 초점을 두었다. 학기 중반에는 수학 개념에 대한 이해에 중점을 둔 탐구가 나타났으며 학생들의 상호작용에서도 모르는 것을 정확하게 질문하고 무엇을 명확히 설명해야 하는지 인식하였다. 학기 후반에는 수학적 탐구와 더불어 학생들의 개별 성향을 더욱 고려하고 수학을 학습하는 과정에서 지적 용기, 정직, 배려, 협력 등의 학문적 인성에 대해 강조하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 수업에서 수학적 연결뿐만 아니라 사회적 연결을 충분히 고려하여 보다 의미 있는 수학 수업을 구현하는 데 시사점을 제공하고자 하였다.
