This study aims to investigate relationships among self-directed learning readiness [SDLR], prerequisite mathematics test score and achievement level in college mathematics. For this purpose, the adjusted SDLRS (self-directed learning readiness scale) of Guglielmino's model, the score of mathematics diagnostic assesment and first semester college mathematics score among 424 freshmen students of engineering department of D university in 2011 were used and analyzed. Research results are as follows: Firstly, freshmen of engineering department had average level of SDLR, though they showed relative low level of self-direction, passion and time control ability. Secondly, considering SDLR with the mathematics diagnostic assesment score (3 groups: high, middle, low), there were no statistically significant differences. Thirdly, concerning SDLR according to the achievement level in college mathematics, a group which acquired good achievement showed higher level of SDLR compared with middle or lowachievement group. Differences among three groups were statistically significant. Lastly, there were affirmative relationships between SDLR, mathematics diagnostic assesment score and achievement in college mathematics. Furthermore, mathematics diagnostic assesment score and achievement level in college mathematics were found to be the most closely related. Based on the results, we suggest strategies to elevate SDLR of engineering department students and improve their achievement in college mathematics.

This study investigates the relationship of mathematics anxiety and achievement in college mathematics for engineering major freshman students. An revised and modified 30-item version of the Mathematics Anxiety Scale(MAS) was completed by 176 university engineering students enrolled in introductory calculus courses offered by the department of mathematics. Correlational analysis indicated complex interaction patterns between mathematics anxiety and mathematics achievement, depending on the level of anxiety. The results from this study confirm the negative correlation between mathematics anxiety and mathematics achievement in college mathematics for engineering major student, and also those support the claim that the relationships between mathematics anxiety and achievement have non-linear patterns.

본 연구는 대학 신입생의 고등학교 재학 시 선행학습경험, 내신등급, 수능수리영역등급과 대학에서의 대학수학교과성적, 대학학업성취도(GPA) 간의 관계를 보았다. 이를 통해, 고등학교 재학 시의 수학교과 학업능력이 대학 신입생의 대학수학교과성적에 어느 정도 영향을 미치는지 분석하고자 하였다. 연구의 목적을 위해, A대학교 2014학년 1학기에 개설된 '기초미적분학'을 수강한 이과대학 및 공과대학 신입생 193명을 대상으로 설문을 실시하고 성적 등 관련 자료를 활용하였다. 이들 자료는 기술통계, 상관분석, 차이검정, 일원변량분석(ANOVA), 사후검정 및 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 연구 대상 대학생의 90% 이상이 고등학교 재학 시 수학교과 선행학습을 한 것으로 나타났으며, 둘째, 선행학습의 효과성에 대한 인식은 필요성 인식보다 유의미하게 낮게 나타났다. 셋째, 대학수학교과성적과 대학학업성취도 간에는 높은 정적 상관관계가 있었으나, 내신등급과 대학학업성취도 간 및 수능수리영역등급과 대학수학교과성적 간에는 미미한 수준의 상관관계만 있었다. 넷째, 고교성적(내신등급, 수능수리영역등급), 선행학습노력, 선행학습만족도, 선행학습필요성이 대학수학학업성취도에 미치는 영향력은 미미한 수준이었다. 연구결과를 바탕으로, 대학수학교과의 학업성취도를 높이기 위한 방안을 제언하였다.

The purpose of this study is to examine how academic achievement in college math courses differ depending on when the course takes place. As a result, based on years of data analyses on students' academic achievement, it was affirmed that achievement levels differ due to environmental factors despite the diverse efforts of instructors and students. By further analyzing the causes of these differences, this study suggests solutions for improving the different academic achievement levels.

This paper studies the relationship between the college entrance examination scores and college mathematics achievements of the freshman, who are the students of college of technology and management in Yanbian University, by employing statistical analysis. First of all, we start from the correlation analysis of the majors and regions of students. Secondly, with gender and region as the classification, we divide the sample into two parts and test the mean significance, and we find that not only different gender but also different region have significant differences to college mathematics achievements. Thirdly, we use the college entrance examination scores as independent variable, and college mathematics achievement as the dependent variable to establish regression model. The model provides a realistic basis for the education department of our school, and provides reference value for the other major research.

Multicultural students are a rapidly growing population in South Korea. Previous studies from the South Korean mathematics education community have reported low mathematics achievement levels of this population compared to Korean-born students. However, a systematic literature review was hardly employed. This study aims to synthesize the factors that affect the mathematics achievement of multicultural students to provide directions for future research and practical directions. Using an Opportunity-Propensity framework suggested by Byrnes and Miller, this study analyzed twenty-seven peer-reviewed journal articles on this topic. The results showed that the majority of the studies focused on the impact of the opportunity factors such as mathematics curriculum and teachers on mathematics achievements. We suggest that more studies regarding distal factors (e.g., students' prior achievement) and propensity factors (e.g., prerequisite knowledge) are needed.

This study is to explore the ways in which the affective characteristics of Korean middle school students have been developed and the ways in which they have an effect on their mathematics achievements by using TIMSS (the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) data of 1995, 1999, and 2003. In addition, this study investigates the differences in affective variables between boys and girls toward mathematics. The result of the study indicates that the affective characteristics of Korean middle school students have changed a little, but that its effect on mathematics achievement increased a lot from 1995 to 2003. This study also shows that the Korean students study mathematics to get a job than to enter a university. However, girls have come to study it harder before going to college and it seems to have an impact on their mathematics scores; this happened in 1999. So we can infer from it that the decreasing in the difference between boys and girls in mathematics achievement may have been influenced by the girls' learning motivation to go to college. Lastly, it should be said that another analysis is needed to find out the reason for the devaluation of the importance of mathematics among the Korean middle school students.

이 연구의 목적은 기대-가치모델(Wigfield & Eccles, 2000)을 통해 여섯 명의 다문화학생들의 수학 학업성취동기가 초등학교 6학년부터 중학교 2학년 (2012~2014) 동안 어떻게 변화하는지 탐구하는 것이다. 이러한 변화과정은 내러티브 탐구를 통해 분석하였다. 그 결과 학생들이 각자 다른 학업성취와 수학 관련 경험들을 가지고 있었으나, 이들의 수학학습 동기발달에 공통적으로 영향을 미치는 요인들을 도출할 수 있었다: (a) 부모와 교사의 역할, (b) 동료의 학업성취, (c) 과거학습 경험과 수학교육과정의 특성, (d) 수학 역량과 다른 과목에서의 역량 간 관계에 대한 인식, (e) 가정 배경, 그리고 (f) 학업 가치 인식 정도. 이 연구 결과는 특정 다문화학생들은 좋은 수학 성적을 얻기 위해 열심히 공부를 하는 반면 다른 학생들은 왜 그렇지 않은지, 또한 왜 특정 학생들은 수학 공부 중 어려움에 부딪혔을 때 계속해서 학습을 하거나 새로운 수학 과제를 찾아나가는 반면 다른 학생들은 쉽게 포기하는지에 대한 통찰을 얻을 수 있었다. 이 연구는 교육자와 부모들이 다문화학생들의 학업동기를 증가시키거나 지속하기 위해서 학생들을 고립된 개체로 보는 것이 아니라 수학 학습동기에 영향을 주는 주변인, 시간, 장소의 상호작용에 주의를 기울일 것을 촉구한다. 본 연구는 다문화학생들의 학습동기발달 과정을 탐구함으로써 이들이 학교에서 높은 수학 성취와 성공에 이루도록 기여할 수 있는 긍정적인 학습 동기 향상 방향을 제시했다는 것에 함의가 있다.

본 연구는 자연대학과 공과대학 신입생들의 학습유형을 살펴보고, 학습유형과 대학수학교과의 학업성취도 간 관계를 탐색하여 학습자의 학습유형에 보다 적합한 대학수학교과 수업에 대한 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여, Kolb의 LSI에 대한 신뢰도분석을 한 후 수도권 중규모 대학교의 자연대학과 공과대학 신입생 282명을 대상으로 LSI를 실시하여 그 결과를 분석하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 학습자 유형은 수렴형, 동화형, 조절형, 확산형의 순으로 나타났다. 둘째, 추상적개념화(AC)와 학업성취도 간에는 정적상관관계가, 구체적경험(CE)과는 부적상관관계가 나타났다. 셋째, 수렴형이 조절형과 확산형보다 학업성취도가 높았다. 넷째, 학습유형과 학업성취 도간 상관관계에 있어서 연구대상자의 특성에 따라 차이가 있었다. 연구결과를 바탕으로, 수학의 학문적 특성과 학습자의 학습유형을 고려하는 맞춤형의 다양한 교수-학습전략의 필요성과 함께, 4단계의 학습사이클을 개별 학습자가 효과적으로 개발할 수 있도록 하는 수업방법이 필요함을 제안하였다.

Spending as much time outside of school as in school, gifted youth are affected by non-school aspects including parents, other family members, peers, mentors, mathematics competitions and camp participations. These influences have been known to shape children's intellectual development, academic achievement, interests, and eventually college and career choices. From interviews with five former Olympians from Korea to identify out-of-school influences on their academic achievement and development, we discovered, in addition to confirmation of previously identified factors, additional sources of positive influence seldom previously mentioned and more common to Korean culture were gleaned - mathematics workbooks and Ha-Gwon. The findings of this study are informative for teachers and parents who are interested in development of gifted youth in providing ways to accommodate their special needs and in showing how they can carefully individualize those sources to be positively affecting intellectual development as well as academic achievement.
