Abstract

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.

본 연구에서는 수학 현장체험학습 프로그램이 학생들의 수학 학습에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 밝히고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2019년 제주목 관아에서 학생들이 직접 걸어 다니면서 체험할 수 있는 제주목 관아 매쓰투어(Math-Tour) 프로그램을 개발하였다. 프로그램에는 제주목 관아에서 볼 수 있는 여러 자연물과 인공물을 이용한 수학 문제를 제시하였다. 이후 제주시 A 중학교 학생들을 대상으로 체험하도록 하여 그 효과를 알아보았다. 매쓰투어에 참여한 학생들을 대상으로 사전·사후 수학 학습 태도 검사와 인터뷰를 실시하고, 소감문을 작성하도록 하여 이를 분석했다. 분석 결과, 수학 현장체험학습 프로그램인 제주목 관아 매쓰투어가 학생들의 수학 학습 태도 신장에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미친다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 이는 수학 현장학습 프로그램이 학생들의 수학 학습 태도를 개선하는데 유의미한 방법으로 활용될 수 있다는 것을 시사해 준다.
