Abstract

This study aimed to investigate how elementary school students' science reading ability is influenced by collaborative problem-solving for competency instruction strategy using science reading text. This study recruited two groups of elementary students in fifth grade. The experimental group underwent an instruction strategy using science reading text, while the comparative group experienced a science class using a textbook. Afterward, data from the science reading ability tests, voice recordings of the discussion process involving each group, and class videos were collected and analyzed. The results showed that science classes that used collaborative problem-solving for their competency instruction strategy via science reading text were effective in enhancing elementary school students' science reading ability. Meanwhile, the science reading ability test results indicated that the experimental group had statistically higher total scores than the comparative group in the three subelements, especially "introspection and evaluation" and "integration and interpretation" owing to their significant improvement in high-level cognitive processes. In these classes, the students read the materials that the teacher provided, participated in the discussion based on what they have read, and had the chance to reflect on their reading processes. Overall, students' science reading ability was enhanced through this process.

이 연구는 과학 읽기 자료를 이용한 협력적 문제해결 중심 과학 수업이 초등학교 학생들의 과학 읽기 능력에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구 대상은 초등학교 5학년으로 실험집단은 과학 읽기 자료를 이용한 협력적 문제해결 중심 과학 수업을 실시하였고 비교집단은 교과서에 바탕을 둔 과학 수업을 실시하였으며 과학 읽기 능력 검사지, 모둠별 논의과정 녹음본과 수업 녹화본을 수집하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 과학 읽기 자료를 이용한 협력적 문제해결 중심 과학 수업은 초등학교 학생들의 과학 읽기 능력의 향상에 효과가 있었다. 과학 읽기 능력 검사 결과, 총점 및 3개 하위 요소 모두에서 실험집단은 비교집단보다 통계적으로 유의미하게 높게 나타났으며, 특히 높은 수준의 인지 과정에 속하는 '성찰 및 평가'와 '통합 및 해석'이 큰 비율로 증가하였다. 학생들은 이 수업에서 교사가 제시한 자료를 읽고 읽은 내용을 바탕으로 논의에 참여하며, 읽은 내용과 읽기 과정에 대한 반성을 하게 된다. 이러한 과정에서 학생들의 과학 읽기 능력이 향상된 것으로 보인다.
