The purpose of this study was to analyze concretely and minutely a primary factor of deciding attitude of learning mathematics of elementary school students, grope a solution for negative attitude of learning mathematics with researching a difference between major factors by achievement in mathematics, and examine a suggestion in forming positive attitude of learning mathematics. The results of this study is as follows. First, elementary school students decided whether they liked or disliked mathematics, depending on not only characteristics of mathematics, but also teacher's teaching mathematics with interest and fun, or teacher's teaching tediously and difficultly. Second, negative attitude toward mathematics exam of elementary school students was influenced by parents' meddling for exam and negative attitude toward result of exam more than uneasiness by exam itself. Third, as private education for elementary school students becomes more popular, the learning mathematics out of school can be an important factor to decide attitude of learning mathematics of students on several sides such as teacher, teaching method, method of presenting task, and so on as much as mathematics class in school, and characteristics of mathematics. Fourth, students demanded silent and concentrative atmosphere in studying to have positive attitude of learning mathematics. Fifth, as the result of examining major factors that form attitude of teaming mathematics of groups by achievement in mathematics, there was considerable difference in each group. Students in a group of ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ disliked parents' meddling and rebuke, but it didn't change greatly their attitude toward mathematics exam. However a group of ‘middle’ showed the greatest uneasiness toward an exam, and they reacted sensitively to parent's rebuke, scolding, learning environment, and so on.

본 연구에서는 고등학교 학생을 대상으로 탐구학습 과정에서 수학적 태도와 수학 창의성에 어떤 변화가 일어나는지를 살펴보았으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문제해결방법에 탐구학습을 투여한 학습집단은 일반 학습집단보다 수학 창의성에 있어서 유의미한 효과를 보였다(p<.05). 둘째, 탐구학습 집단과 일반학습 집단의 수학적 태도는 사전 및 사후의 두 검사에서 모두 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p<.05).

The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of mathematical disposition and attitude through the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning. For this purpose, we made up an experimental class. And then we investigated the students' change in these aspects after the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning. As a result of the experiment, we find that significant changes on the students' mathematical disposition and attitude utilizing the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning. Therefore, in this study, I want to solve the particular problems that follow. First, what is the reaction of utilizing the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning mathematical program for students? Is it effective utilizing the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning to improve students' mathematical disposition? Third, does utilizing the foster self-confidence and learning motivation by STAD cooperative learning have a positive impact on students' mathematical attitude?

The purpose of this study was to prove the effect of Mathematics field experience trip program on students' attitude in learning Mathematics. For this we developed Jejumok-Gwanna Math-Tour program in 2019 for students which would make them to walk and experience mathematics in the field. In that program, we suggested several Mathematics examples about natural objects and artifacts in Jejumok-Gwanna. After that, we let A middle school students within Jeju to experience this program in order to see the effect of this program. We asked participants to write pre- and past- questionnaire, have an interview, and write review. After analyzing those, this study concluded that the effect of Jejumok-Gwanna Math-Tour on student's attitude in learning mathematics was statically significant. The result of this study suggested that Mathematics Field Experience Study Program could be useful to improve student's attitude in learning mathematics.

One of the essential factors for successful college mathematics class is to provide a strong motivation for learning to students. In this respect, this paper attempted to find out how the letter-writing assignment can change students' learning attitude and enhance their motivation for further mathematical investigation. The process is to have all students write up letters containing a summary of the major points covered during the semester, and to find out how valuable is the letter-writing assignment. The major finding of this research is that the letter-writing assignment makes a notable contribution to the desirable change of students' learning attitude. From this finding, we suggest that the letter-writing assignment be adopted by more math classes and expect that such expansion of the letter-writing assignment would have a positive influence on the students' learning attitude.

본 연구는 중학생을 대상으로 협동 학습에서 사용하고 있는 기존의 집단 구성과는 달리 학생들의 학습 양식에 따라 집단을 구성하여 협동 학습의 효과성을 보이고자 하였다. 학습양식(Learning Style)에 따라 집단을 구성한 협동 학습의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학습양식에 따라 구성한 협동 학습 집단( I, II, III, IV)이 일반학습 집단(V)에 비하여 수학 성취도에 있어서 유의한 효과를 보였다(p<.001). 둘째, 학습양식에 따라 구성한 협동 학습 집단( I, II, III, IV)이 일반학습 집단에 비하여 수학에 대한 긍정적인 태도로의 변화가 있었다(p<.001).

The factors contributing to learning can be broadly classified into four different groups; Learner's characteristic variable, Instructor's characteristic variable, Learning task characteristic variable and environmental characteristic variable. And the first thing we need to do here is understanding of learner's characteristics among those factors in order to devise a plan for education. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to find out what impact the affective traits (self-concept learning habits learning attitude), one of the learner's features, have on the mathematics-learning achievement and to seek for a good teaching method with reference to elementary school students' learning accomplishments and attitudes. For this, a questionnaire survey was conducted of 78 students of two fifth-grade classes in an elementary school located in South Chungcheong Province in this study. In consequence, it has been shown that the mathematics-learning achievement has the greatest relevance to the self-concept in connection with mathematics followed by the self-concept in connection with learning, the learning habits relating to mathematics, the attitude towards mathematics, the learning habits concerning studies and the attitude towards learning.

In this study, we conducted the survey to 116 SENKs (students who emigrated from North Korea to South Korea) about mathematical attitude and recognition on mathematics learning and mathematics lesson in South Korea. As the results of the study, SENKs' had positive index on mathematical attitude and recognition about mathematics lesson, but negative index on the recognition about their mathematics learning. SENKs' showed the favoring pictures about mathematics lesson and the needed supports for improving their mathematics understanding. Based on the results, we discussed the implications for teaching and learning of SENKs.

우리나라 중학교 2학년 학생들은 TIMSS와 같은 국제적인 평가에서 높은 수학 성취도를 보이고 있다. 성별 성취도를 분석하면 TIMSS 1995부터 TIMSS 2011까지 남학생이 여학생보다 지속적으로 높은 평균점수를 받고 있다. TIMSS 1995와 TIMSS 2011의 성별 점수 차이는 유의한 것으로 나타났다. TIMSS 2011에 참가한 42개국 중 성차가 없거나 여학생이 더 높은 성취도를 보인 국가는 35개국이며 남학생이 더 높은 성취도를 보인 국가는 우리나라를 포함하여 7개국이다. 수학 성취도의 성차는 사회문화적 요인과 수학학습태도와 연관이 있다는 여러 연구 결과가 있다. 본 연구는 TIMSS 2011에 참가한 중2학년 5,165명 남녀학생들의 수학성취도 결과를 분석하여 사회문화적 요인이 수학학습태도와 수학성취도에 미치는 영향을 찾아보았다. 연구결과 남녀학생의 교사선호도는 유의한 성차가 없었는데 학부모의 교육 참여도에 유의한 성차가 있었다. 여학생의 수학에 관한 가치와 수학에 관한 자신감은 남학생보다 유의하게 낮았다. 학부모의 교육 참여도는 여학생의 수학학습태도와 수학성취도에 더 높은 영향력을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 학부모들의 교육 참여도를 높이고 여학생들의 수학에 관한 가치와 자신감을 높이기 위해서는 여학생들의 롤 모델과 여성들의 과학 분야의 진출을 장려하는 사회적 요인의 조성이 함께 필요하다.
