학교 수학의 궁극적인 목표는 “수학적 능력과 태도를 육성하는데 있다.” 이러한 목표를 달성하기 위해서는 수학의 기본적인 지식과 기능을 습득하는 일과 수학적으로 사고하는 능력을 기르는 일이 뒷받침되어야 할 것이다. 수학적 사고는 학교수학에서 지도되는 내용 그 자체에 관련된 것이 아니라 이들 수학을 수학내용을 이해하고 지식으로 획득하는 과정에서 행하여지는 수학적인 활동과 관련이 있다고 하겠다. 본고에서는 수학적인 활동의 방법적인 측면에서 귀납 추론, 연역 추론, 유비 추론에 대해서 개괄적으로 알아보고, 귀납 추론의 필요성 및 특성과 구체적인 적용 사례에 대해서 알아보고자 한다.

본 연구의 목적은 아동들의 수학 교과에 대한 정의적 특성과 수학적 문제 해결력, 추론 능력간의 상호 관계를 구명하고, 이러한 관계들은 아동의 지역적인 환경에 따라 차이가 있는지를 분석하는 것이다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻은 결론은 다음과 같다. 정의적 특성의 하위 요인 중 수학적 문제 해결력과 귀납적 추론 능력에 대한 설명력이 가장 높은 요인은 수학교과에 대한 자아개념인 것으로 나타났으며, 연역적 추론 능력에 대한 설명력은 학습 습관이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. _그리고 귀납적 추론 능력이 연역적 추론 능력 보다 수학적 문제 해결력에 대한 설명력이 더 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 수학적 문제 해결력과 귀납적 추론 능력은 지역별로 유의한 차가 나타났으나 연역적 추론 능력은 지역간 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다.

The study tries to differentiate the levels of mathematical reasoning from inductive reasoning to formal reasoning for teaching gradually. Because the formal point of view without the relation to objects has limitations in the creation of a new knowledge, our mathematics education needs consider the such characteristics. We propose an intuitive level of proof related in concrete operations and perceptual experiences as an intermediating step between inductive and formal reasoning. The key activity of the intuitive level is having insight on the generality of reasoning. The details of the process should pursuit the direction for going away from objects and near to formal reasoning. We need teach the mathematical reasoning gradually according to the appropriate level of reasoning more differentiated.

The purpose of this study is to measure the differences in affective characteristics and mathematical reasoning ability between gifted students and non-gifted students. This study compares and analyzes on the relations between the affective characteristics and mathematical reasoning ability. The study subjects are comprised of 97 gifted fifth grade students and 144 non-gifted fifth grade students. The criterion is based on the questionnaire of the affective characteristics and mathematical reasoning ability. To analyze the data, t-test and multiple regression analysis were adopted. The conclusions of the study are synthetically summarized as follows. First, the mathematically gifted students show a positive response to subelement of the affective characteristics, self-conception, attitude, interest, study habits. As a result of analysis of correlation between the affective characteristic and mathematical reasoning ability, the study found a positive correlation between self-conception, attitude, interest, study habits but a negative correlation with mathematical anxieties. Therefore the more an affective characteristics are positive, the higher the mathematical reasoning ability are built. These results show the mathematically gifted students should be educated to be positive and self-confident. Second, the mathematically gifted students was influenced with mathematical anxieties to mathematical reasoning ability. Therefore we seek for solution to reduce mathematical anxieties to improve to the mathematical reasoning ability. Third, the non-gifted students that are influenced of interest of the affective characteristics will improve mathematical reasoning ability, if we make the methods to be interested math curriculum.

최근 수학적 사고력 연구가 구체적 수학내용에 기반한 활동과 조작에 대한 연구보다는 활동이나 조작을 통한 결과로 수학적 사고력에 접근하는 일회성 연구로 이루어지는 경향이 있다. 본고에서는 교육 내용을 선정하기 위해 학교수학에서 아동들이 어떤 수학적 사고를 하는데 장애을 겪는지에 주목하여, 이러한 장애를 극복하는 것을 통해 수학적 사고력의 신장을 생각해보고자 하였다. 이에 대수에서는 문자도입에 따른 추상적 상징의 수용과 이용부분에서, 기하에서는 논증기하의 증명도입과정에서 형식적, 연역적 사고 시작으로 아동이 수학적 사고에 어려움을 겪는다는 사살에 주목하였다. 특히 논증 기하의 연역적, 형식적 증명은 논리와 추론이 바탕이 되어야 한다. 그런데 논리와 추론은 고등학교 1학년과정 집합과 명제부분에 들어있어 아동은 논리와 추론에 대한 어떤 경험도, 교육도 받지 않은 상태에서 증명을 하게 된다. 이에 교육 내용으로 수학적 사고력을 신장을 위해 가장 필요한 내용이 논증 기하가 도입되기 이전에 초등학교 5,6학년 아동을 대상으로한 논리와 추론교육이라고 본다. 또한 교육 방법으로는 컴퓨터를 이용한 교육공학적 접근을 하고자 하였다. 교육공학적 접근이 적극 권장되는 교육적 현실과 정규교육과정에서 이를 받아들일만한 시간적 여유가 없음을 감안하여, 교과 내용과 연계된 컴퓨터 교육을 제안하는 바이다. 이에 논리 및 추론 교육은 컴퓨터 교육으로 초등학교의 특기적성 시간이나 정규수업 시간에 이용할 것을 제안한다. 논리와 추론교육을 위해 무엇을 어떻게 가르칠 것인가에 대한 답으로 논리와 추론교육에 적합한 수학적 내용으로 크게 이산수학과 중등 기하의 초등화하여 탐구하도록 하는 내용을, 교육 방법 측면에서는 논리와 추론 교육을 위한 LOGO 기반 마이크로월드를 설계, 이용하여 수학적 사고력을 신장시키고자 한다. 여기까지가 수학적 사고력을 위한 가능성을 모색한 것이라면 후속연구로 이러한 가능성을 실험연구로 검증하고자 한다.

The ability to think mathematically and to reason inductively are basics of logical reasoning and the most important skill which students need to acquire through their Math curriculum in elementary school. For these reasons, we need to conduct an analysis in their procedure in inductive reasoning and find difficulties thereof. Therefore, through this study, I found parts which covered inductive reasoning in their Math curriculum and analyzed the abilities and characteristics of students in solving a problem through inductive reasoning.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the levels of cognitive demands and components of the reasoning process presented in the mathematical sequence section of three high school mathematics textbooks in order to provide implications for the development of reasoning tasks in the future mathematics textbooks. The results of the study have revealed that most of the reasoning tasks presented in the mathematical sequence section of the three high school mathematics textbooks seemed to require low-level cognitive demands and that low-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks required only a component of one reasoning process. On the other hand, only a portion of the reasoning tasks appeared to require high-level of cognitive demands, and high-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks required various components of reasoning process. Considering the results of the study, it seems to suggest that we need more high-level cognitive demands reasoning tasks to develop high-level cognitive reasoning that would provide students with learning opportunities for various processes of reasoning, and that would provide a deeper understanding of the nature of reasoning.

The elements of mathematical processes include mathematical reasoning, mathematical problem-solving, and mathematical communications. Proportion reasoning is a kind of mathematical reasoning which is closely related to the ratio and percent concepts. Proportion reasoning is the essence of primary mathematics, and a basic mathematical concept required for the following more-complicated concepts. Therefore, the study aims to analyze the proportion reasoning ability of sixth graders of primary school who have already learned the ratio and percent concepts. To allow teachers to quickly recognize and help students who have difficulty solving a proportion reasoning problem, this study analyzed the characteristics and patterns of proportion reasoning of sixth graders of primary school. The purpose of this study is to provide implications for learning and teaching of future proportion reasoning of higher levels. In order to solve these study tasks, proportion reasoning problems were developed, and a total of 22 sixth graders of primary school were asked to solve these questions for a total of twice, once before and after they learned the ratio and percent concepts included in the 2009 revised mathematical curricula. Students' strategies and levels of proportional reasoning were analyzed by setting up the four different sections and classifying and analyzing the patterns of correct and wrong answers to the questions of each section. The results are followings; First, the 6th graders of primary school were able to utilize various proportion reasoning strategies depending on the conditions and patterns of mathematical assignments given to them. Second, most of the sixth graders of primary school remained at three levels of multiplicative reasoning. The most frequently adopted strategies by these sixth graders were the fraction strategy, the between-comparison strategy, and the within-comparison strategy. Third, the sixth graders of primary school often showed difficulty doing relative comparison. Fourth, the sixth graders of primary school placed the greatest concentration on the numbers given in the mathematical questions.

The purpose of this study was to analyze children's proportional reasoning process on an ill-structured "architectural drawing" problem solving and to investigate their level and characteristics of proportional reasoning. As results, they showed various perspective and several level of proportional reasoning such as illogical, additive, multiplicative, and functional approach. Furthermore, they showed their expanded proportional reasoning from the early stage of perception of various types of quantities and their proportional relation in the problem to application stage of their expanded and generalized relation. Students should be encouraged to develop proportional reasoning by experiencing various quantity in ration and proportion situations.
