초록

이 연구에서는 우리나라 중학교 수학 교과서의 함수 단원에서 학생에게 어떠한 학습 기회를 제공하는지를 탐색한다. 구체적으로, 교과서가 제시하는 수학 내용과 실행, 수학 과제의 인지적 노력수준, 학생 응답의 유형, 문제 상황의 형태 및 특징 등의 측면을 탐구하여서 교과서가 학생들에게 어떠한 학습기회를 제안하며 구조화하는가를 살펴본다. 이를 위해서 2009 개정 교육과정에 따른 중학교 수학교과서 3종을 분석하였다. 그 결과로 교과서가 학생에게 제공하는 함수에 대한 학습기회는 다음과 같이 요약된다. 첫째, 절차적 지식과 개념 간의 연결성이 매우 약하며 함수의 내용 간의 의미를 연결하는 기회가 매우 제한되어 있다. 둘째, 학생들은 함수를 정의, 규칙, 법칙만으로 학습하게 되며 예제와 수학과제를 통해서 계산의 절차 수행을 반복적으로 경험하게 될 가능성이 크다. 셋째, 학생들은 문제를 해결하는 과정에 대해서 수학적으로 설명하거나 추론하는 과정을 경험할 가능성이 매우 적다. 넷째, 수학과제와 상황과제를 통해 학생의 인지적 사고 과정이 확장되거나 심화되기 보다는 분절적이고 파편화된 지식으로 받아들일 수 있는 여지가 많다.

This study aims to explore how Korean middle-school mathematics textbooks on functions provide students an opportunity-to-learn [OTL]. For this purpose, we investigate 3 textbooks in terms of mathematics content and practice, the level of cognitive demands of mathematical tasks, types of student responses, types of context-based tasks, and connections among the tasks. The findings from the data analysis suggest as follows: a) an opportunity-to-learn to connect procedures to functional concepts and new ideas of functions to the existing one is very limited; b) the textbooks seem to provide students an OTL to understand functions as definitions, rules and conventions and to experience repeatedly procedural executions through worked examples and mathematics tasks; c) students may not experience to explain their own ideas/thinking by using mathematical sentence or justify their own cognitive processes; and d) students can be exposed to get a sense of mathematics as a set of fragmented and isolated facts or procedures, rather than to encourage to expand and deepen their understanding of functions.
