Abstract

This study developed teaching-learning materials for mathematics and coding convergence classes using Python, focusing on 'Prime Factorization' of seventh graders. After applying the teaching methods and contents to the students, they analyzed whether the learners achieved their learning goals. The results were used to modify and supplement teaching and learning materials. Affective domain of learners were also analyzed. The results are that the teaching methods and contents of the developed teaching-learning materials were generally appropriate for learners. The learners understood most of the lessons according to the set teaching methods of all classes. And learners have mostly reached their learning goals. In addition, as a result of analyzing the definition characteristics of learners through follow-up interviews, the interest in mathematics and programming has improved. The developed teaching and learning materials of this study are well consisted mostly of the teaching methods and the contents of the classes, and are organized so that learners can reach most of the learning goals. It also brought positive changes to the affective domain of mathematics and coding, demonstrating the potential for useful use in school.

본 연구는 교육용 프로그래밍으로 활용할 수 있는 파이썬을 활용한 수학과 코딩의 융합 수업 교수·학습 자료를 개발하기 위해 중학교 1학년 소인수분해 단원을 중심으로 수업지도안과 학생 활동지를 개발하는데 목표를 두고 있다. 본 연구에서는 파이선 프로그램을 사용해 본 경험이 없는 중학교 학생들에게 적용하여 수학과 코딩의 융합 수업 방법 및 내용의 적절성을 확인하고자 하였다. 이러한 과정에서 중학교 1학년 2명의 학생들에게 적용한 결과의 분석을 통해 교수·학습 자료를 수정·보완 하여 최종 자료를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 교수·학습 자료는 코딩을 활용하여 소인수분해를 학습하는 융합수업이 이루어질 수 있도록 수업 방법 및 수업 내용을 구성하였으며 이를 통해 수학과 코딩에 대한 융합 수업이 현장에서 시도될 수 있는 가능성을 보여주었다.
