초록

본 연구의 목적은 TIMSS 최근 5주기 동안 우리나라 중학교 2학년 학생들의 수학 정의적 태도 변화 추이를 살펴보는 데 있다. 이를 위해 먼저 우리나라를 포함한 주요 5개국 학생들의 수학 정의적 태도 변화 추이를 전체, 성별, 성취수준별로 분석하고, 이어서 우리나라 학생들의 수학 정의적 태도 문항별 변화 추이를 분석하였다. 연구 결과, TIMSS 최근 5주기 동안 우리나라 중학교 2학년 학생들의 수학에 대한 흥미, 자신감, 가치인식 전반에 걸쳐 긍정적인 변화가 있는 것으로 나타났다. TIMSS 최근 5주기 동안 우리나라 남학생의 수학 정의적 태도가 여학생보다 높고 성별에 따른 차이가 최근 들어 증가하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 우리나라 학생들은 성취수준에 따라 수학 정의적 태도의 차이가 크고 하위 성취수준 학생들의 수학 정의적 태도가 특히 낮은 점이 확인되었다. 우리나라 학생들의 수학 가치인식에 대한 문항별 분석에서는 일상생활에서의 수학의 필요성에 대한 인식이 낮아지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 우리나라 학생들의 정의적 태도 함양을 위한 시사점을 제시하였으며, 본 연구의 결과가 우리나라 수학교육의 성과 점검을 위한 기초 자료로서 의미 있게 활용되어 학생들의 수학 정의적 태도 함양을 위한 방안을 마련하는 데 기여할 수 있기를 기대한다.

The purpose of this study is to examine changes in Korean middle school students' affective attitudes toward mathematics over the past 5 cycles of TIMSS. To this end, we first analyzed the changes in students' affective attitudes towards mathematics in five major countries, and then analyzed the changes in Korean students' affective attitudes toward mathematics by item. As a result of the study, there were positive changes in Korean students' interest, confidence, and value perception of mathematics during the recent 5 cycle of TIMSS. Korean male students' affective attitude toward mathematics is higher than that of female students, and the gender gap has been increasing recently. There was a large difference in the affective attitudes toward mathematics among Korean students, depending on their achievement level, and in particular, the affective attitudes toward mathematics of students at the lower achievement level remained significantly low. Item-level analysis revealed a decrease in Korean students' awareness of the necessity of mathematics in daily life. Based on these results, we discussed the implications for cultivating Korean students' affective attitudes. It is hoped that the results of this study will be meaningfully used as basic data for examining the performance of mathematics education in Korea and contribute to developing measures to foster students' positive attitudes toward mathematics.
