수학적 문제 해결은 수학 교육에서 중요한 이슈이고 문제 해결 전략으로서의 유추를 주제로 본 연구에서는 중학생들을 대상으로 단순히 유사한 문제를 제시하는 것만으로 문제 해결에 성공을 할 수 있는지, 문제 해결에 성공을 할 수 없다면 중학생들에게 어떤 과정을 제시해야만 문제 해결 과정에서 유추를 사용하여 문제를 해결 할 수 있는지를 알아보고자 한다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 유추에 의한 문제 해결과정을 표상 형성, 인출, 사상, 적합성, 스키마 형성의 과정으로 보고, 이러한 과정 중 사상 단계에서 사상 과정의 명료화를 중심으로 학생들의 유추 추론에 의한 문제해결 과정을 탐구하였다. 연구 결과, 유추 추론 과정에서 근거 문제만을 제시하는 것은 목표 문제를 해결하는데 유추 추론의 성공을 보장한다고 할 수 없었으며, 근거 문제가 제시되었는데도 목표 문제를 해결하지 못하는 경우 사상 과정을 명료화하자 목표 문제를 성공적으로 해결하였다. 또한 학생들은 목표 문제의 성공 이후 유사한 새로운 목표문제를 푸는데 성공하였다.

Increasing the problem solving power in school mathematics is the most important task of mathematics education. It is the ultimate goal of mathematics education to help students develop their thinking and creativity and help solve problems that arise in the real world. In this study, we investigated the contents of problem solving according to mathematics curriculum goals from the first curriculum to current curriculum in Korea. This study analyzed the problem-solving contents of the mathematics textbooks reflecting the achievement criteria of the revised curriculum in 2015. As a result, it was the first curriculum to use the terminology of problem solving in the mathematics goal of Korea's curriculum. Interest in problem solving was most actively pursued in the 6th and 7th curriculum and the 2006 revision curriculum. After that, it was neglected to be reflected in textbooks since the 2009 revision curriculum, We have identified the problems of this problem-solving instruction and suggested improvement direction.

수학 학습의 목표를 수학적 사고력의 신장이라는 측면에서 보았을 때 이를 위하여 문제에 대한 다양한 해법을 찾는 활동은 중요하다. 문제에 대한 다양한 접근은 문제해결의 전략을 학습시키고 사고의 유연성을 길러줄 수 있는 방법이 된다. 문제에 대한 다양한 해법을 찾는 과정에서 이미 알고 있는 지식이 어떻게 응용되는지를 알게 된다. 특히 기하 문제에 대한 다양한 접근은 문제해결의 전략을 학습시킬 수 있는 좋은 예가 된다. 본고에서는 문제해결을 통한 수학적 일반성을 발견하기 위한 방법으로서 문제에 대한 다양한 해법을 연역과 귀납에 의하여 일반화하는 과정을 탐색하고자 한다. 특히 수학 문제에 대한 다양한 해법을 찾는 것은 문제해결 전략으로서 뿐만 아니라 창의적 사고의 신장 측면에서 시사점을 던져준다.

This paper analyzed contents related to problem solving in the 7th elementary mathematics curriculum in conjunction with main changes in the next curriculum under discussion. This paper then provided detailed analyses of textbooks and workbooks in terms of principal contents, problem solving strategies, content areas, and problem types in order to look closely at how such instructional materials would put the vision of the curriculum into action. It is expected that many issues and suggestions stemming from the analyses will serve basic information to develop next curriculum and its concomitant instructional materials in a way to fostering students' problem solving ability.

초${\cdot}$중등학교 수학교육에 있어서 문제해결에 대한 관심은 전세계적으로 점점 높아지고 있다. 우리 나라 에서는 문제해결 교육을 제 4차 교육과정 개정부터 시작하여 제 7차 교육과정에서도 아주 중요시 하고있다. 이렇게 교육과정의 변화에도 불구하고 수학 교육헌장에서 교사들의 문제해결에 대하여 갖는 인식도나 실천적 의지는 매우 부족하다. 이런 관점에서 첫째는 문제해결력에 관한 제 7차교육과정의 교과서를 분석함으로써 문제해결 지도에 사용되고 있는 문제의 유형을 분석하였다. 둘째는 교사들의 설문지를 통하여 수학 교육에서 문제해결을 위한 교사의 신념을 조사하여 교육 현장에서 문제해결력의 문제점을 분석하여 앞으로의 개선책을 알아본다.

The purpose of this study is to reconsider of teaching mathematics problem solving in Korea's elementary school through an analysis of mathematics curricula and mathematics textbooks of the elementary school. As a result, it is found that the problem solving had been emphasized continually from the 4th curriculum to the 2009 revised curriculum. However, contents in their textbooks did not reflect the intent of the mathematics curricula properly. And amount of contents related to teaching about problem solving in the textbooks reached the peak in the 6th mathematics curriculum. Then teaching about problem solving had been weakened gradually. And it is also revealed that there had been a movement to change to teaching for problem solving in the textbooks of the 2007 and 2009 revised curricula. Teaching via problem solving had not been carried out appropriately so far.

Studies on meta-affect in problem solving tried to build similar structures among affective elements as the structure of cognition and meta-cognition. But it's still need to be more systematic as meta-cognition. This study defines meta-affect as the connection of cognitive elements and affective elements which always include at least one affective element. We logically categorized types of meta-affect in problem solving, and then observed and analyzed the real cases for each type of meta-affect based on the logical categories. We found the operating mechanism of meta-affect in mathematical problem solving. In particular, we found the characteristics of meta function which operates in the process of problem solving. Finally, this study contributes in efficient analysis of meta-affect in problem solving and educational implications of meta-affect in teaching and learning in problem solving.

벡터는 수학 문제해결을 위한 중요한 도구로써, 벡터를 이용한 문제해결 과정에서 학생들은 수학적 탐구 활동에 관련된 풍부한 경험을 가질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 벡터를 이용하여 삼각형의 무게중심에 관한 정리를 증명하기 위한 수학적 탐구 능력이나 아이디어를 학생들이 준비할 수 있도록 정리 증명과 관련된 몇몇 문제들을 체계화하여 제시하였다. 이 문제들을 해결하는 과정에 관련된 탐구 능력을 추출하였으며, 체계화된 문제에 바탕을 둔 무게중심에 관한 정리 증명을 제시하였고, 증명 과정과 관련된 수학적 탐구 능력을 제시하였다.

The development of mathematical problem solving ability and the making(transforming) mathematical problems are consistently emphasized in the mathematics curriculum. However, research on the problem making methods or the analysis of the characteristics of problem making methods itself is not yet active in mathematics education in Korea. In this study, we concretize the method of deductive problem making(DPM) in a different direction from the what-if-not method proposed by Brown & Walter, and present the characteristics and phases of this method. Since in DPM the components of the problem solving process of the initial problem are changed and problems are made by going backwards from the phases of problem solving procedure, so the problem solving process precedes the formulating problem. The DPM is related to the verifying and expanding the results of problem solving in the reflection phase of problem solving. And when a teacher wants to transform or expand an initial problem for practice problems or tests, etc., DPM can be used.

According to previous studies, it shows that the metacognitive ability that makes the positive element of the problem solver positively affects the problem-solving process of mathematics. In order to accurately grasp causality, this study investigates the specific characteristics of the meta-affect factor in the process of problem-solving. To do this, we analyzed the types and frequency of data collected from collaborative problem-solving situations composed of 4th~6th grade mathematically gifted children in small group of two. As a result, it can be seen that the type of meta-affect in the problem-solving process of mathematically gifted children is related to the correctness rate of the problem. First, regardless of the success or failure of the problem-solving, the meta-affect appeared relatively frequently in the meta-affect types in which the cognitive factors related to the context of problem-solving appeared first, and acted as the meta-functional type of the evaluation and attitude. Especially, in the case of successful problem-solving of mathematically gifted children, meta-affect showed a very active function as meta-functional type of evaluation.
