Abstract

In this study, the objective of this study is to verify the effects between lecturer's capability, education program, education service, and physical educational environment factors, and university students' interest in and attitude toward mathematics. A survey was conducted on 228 male and female students in science and engineering majors attending universities in the Pusan metropolitan area, and empirical analysis was conducted using the SPSS 26.0 program. The research results are as follows. First, among the characteristics of college mathematics maker classes, instructor competency (β=.349, t=6.380, p<.001), educational program (β=.361, t=5.650, p<.001), and physical educational environment (β=.196, t=3.281, p<.01) had a significant positive (+) effect on college students' interest in mathematics. Second, the factors of interest (β=.349, t=6.380, p<.001) in college mathematics maker classes were found to have a significant positive (+) effect on college students' attitudes toward mathematics. Third, among the characteristics of college mathematics maker classes, instructor competency (β=.340, t=6.365, p<.001), educational program (β=.352, t=5.559, p<.001), physical educational environment (β=.226, t=3.537, p<.01) was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on college students' attitudes toward mathematics. Through the results of this study, it was concluded that when the level of education program and teaching ability of the university mathematics maker class are high and the physical educational environment is excellent, it can have a positive effect not only on the university student's attitude towards mathematics but ultimately on the attitude of mathematics.

본 연구에서는 대학수학 메이커수업 특성의 요인인 강사역량, 교육프로그램, 교육서비스, 물리적 교육환경 요인과 대학생들의 수학에 대한 흥미 및 태도 간의 영향관계를 검증하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 부산권 소재 대학교에 재학 중인 이공계열 남녀 대학생 228명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였고, SPSS 26.0 프로그램을 활용하여 실증분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 대학수학 메이커수업 특성 요인 중 강사역량(β=.349, t=6.380, p<.001), 교육프로그램(β=.361, t=5.650, p<.001), 물리적 교육환경(β=.196, t=3.281, p<.01) 요인이 대학생의 수학에 대한 흥미에 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 대학수학 메이커수업에 대한 흥미(β=.349, t=6.380, p<.001) 요인은 대학생의 수학에 대한 태도에 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 대학수학 메이커수업 특성 요인 중 강사역량(β=.340, t=6.365, p<.001), 교육프로그램(β=.352, t=5.559, p<.001), 물리적 교육환경(β=.226, t=3.537, p<.01) 요인이 대학생의 수학에 대한 태도에 유의미한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 대학수학 메이커수업의 교육프로그램 수준과 강사역량이 높고, 물리적 교육환경이 뛰어날 때, 대학생의 수학에 대한 태도 뿐 아니라 궁극적으로 수학에 대한 태도에도 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 결론에 도달하였다.
