Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore which performance verbs are used in the achievement standards of the Korean mathematics curriculum and how to improve them. So, first, we analyzed whether there were differences in the performance verbs included in the 2015 revised mathematics curriculum achievement standards by school level. In addition, it was analyzed whether there were differences in the performance verbs included in the mathematics curriculum in Korea and foreign countries. As a result of the analysis, both the frequency and the type of performance verbs included in the achievement standards of the Korean mathematics curriculum decreased as the school level increased. Also, performative verbs such as 'understand' and 'know' were excessively used. Similar tendencies were seen in foreign mathematics curricula, but the frequency and the type of performance verbs were higher than those in Korea, and various performance verbs were used. As a result of the study, it is suggested that performance verbs included in achievement standards need to be improved to improve middle and high school mathematics classes.

본 연구는 우리나라 수학과 교육과정 성취기준에 포함된 수행 동사를 추출하여 그 실태를 파악하고 개선 방안을 탐색하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 현행 수학과 교육과정인 2015 개정 수학과 교육과정 성취기준에 포함된 수행 동사가 학교급별로 차이가 있는지를 분석하였다. 또 우리나라 수학과 교육과정 성취기준에 포함된 수행 동사가 다른 국가의 수학과 교육과정 성취기준에 포함된 수행 동사와 차이가 있는지도 살펴보았다. 분석 결과 우리나라 2015 개정 수학과 교육과정 성취기준에 포함된 수행 동사는 학교급이 올라갈수록 빈도와 종수가 모두 적어지는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 외국의 수학과 교육과정에서도 유사한 경향성은 보였으나 우리나라에서는 '이해하다', '알다'가 지나치게 많이 사용되어 개선이 필요하다.
