Abstract

This study investigates the changes in perception and the characteristics of teaching and learning that emerge when middle school students participate in mathematics field trip activities at cultural heritage sites. Focusing on Cheomseongdae and Bulguksa, two of Gyeongju's most significant cultural landmarks, the research designed and implemented a series of activities before, during, and after the field trips. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted to examine students' perceptions, interests, and learning processes. The findings reveal that engaging in mathematics exploration within real-world cultural heritage contexts enables students to apply mathematical concepts and principles in practice, fostering increased interest and pride in mathematics as well as collaborative inquiry skills. Furthermore, the study confirms that mathematics education grounded in authentic, real-life experiences positively influences students' cognitive, affective, and cultural-mathematical development. These results underscore the value of integrating field-based learning into the mathematics curriculum to enhance students' holistic understanding and engagement.

수학교육 활동은 교실뿐 아니라, 교실 밖 어디에서나 일어날 수 있다. 이러한 전제에 따라 본 연구는 중학생들이 문화유산 현장에서 수학답사 활동을 경험할 때 나타나는 인식 변화와 교수·학습 특성을 분석한 사례 연구이다. 구체적으로, 문화유산의 현장인 경주 지역의 대표 문화재인 첨성대와 불국사를 대상으로 사전활동, 현장활동, 사후활동을 설계·실행하고, 이를 통해 나타난 학생들의 인식, 흥미, 학습 과정을 양적·질적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구 수행결과, 학생들은 문화유산 현장중심 수학답사를 통해 수학적 개념과 원리를 실제로 적용하며, 수학에 대한 흥미와 자긍심, 협동적 탐구 태도가 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 실생활 맥락의 수학교육이 인지적, 정의적, 문화-수학적 측면 모두에 긍정적 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 수학답사 활동이 문화유산의 현장, 자연유산의 현장에서 활발하게 진행되기를 기대한다.
