초록

오래전부터 NCTM(National Council of Teachers of Mathematics)과 같은 수학교육기관에서 글쓰기는 필수적인 부분으로 언급해 왔다. 그리고 최근 교육부 조사에 따르면 코로나 시대 이후 기초학력 저하의 심각성을 보고하였다. 본 연구는 수학교육에서 수학 쓰기를 재정의하고, 현재 수학교육에서 제시되는 역량 중 과거부터 언급해 온 문제해결, 의사소통, 추론 영역을 중심으로 글쓰기의 역할과 그 중요성을 파악하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 연구 결과에서 문제해결에서의 글쓰기는 인지적인 부분을 정리함으로써 개념과 방법을 습득할 수 있는 능력을 기를 수 있고, 의사소통에서의 글쓰기는 재인지 과정을 통해 자신감을 가질 수 있으며, 추론에서의 글쓰기는 단계적으로 어떤 부분이 부족한지를 스스로 파악할 수 있다. 특히, AI를 활용하는 미래 사회에서 수업 환경이 달라지는 만큼 쓰기를 통한 진위성 판단이나 올바른 쓰기 문화 정착을 위해 연구가 이루어질 필요가 있다.

For a long time, mathematics education institutions such as NCTM(National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) have emphasized the essential role of writing, and recent surveys by the Ministry of Education report a decline in foundational academic skills in the post-COVID19 period. The purpose of this study is to redefine the significance of mathematics writing in mathematics education, focusing on competencies highlighted in the field, particularly in the areas of problem-solving, communication, and reasoning. The research findings indicate that writing in problem-solving enhances cognitive organization, fostering the ability to grasp concepts and methods. Writing in communication builds confidence through the meta-cognitive process, and writing in inference allows self-awareness of step-by-step identification of areas lacking understanding. Particularly in the future society where artificial intelligence(AI) is utilized, changes in the learning environment necessitate research for the establishment of authenticity judgment through writing and the cultivation of a proper writing culture.
