간편 제작 수학교구 활용 학습이 큰 수 개념 형성에 미치는 효과

Abstract

Most of all, the purpose of this study is to analyze the effects the simply produced mathematics materials has on fourth graders' comprehending the concept of high numbers, through inventing and applying the teaching-learning program to utilize them. The studies for me to work out are as follows :

First, I plan out the teaching-learning program to make use of the simply produced mathematics materials to help my learners' apprehend the concept of the high number.

Second, I analyze what effect it had on the learners' ability to comprehend the concept of high numbers. I at first examined and analyzed the previous studies of mathematics materials so as to attain my purpose and I selected and experimented two classes (one is an experimental group and the other is a control group) at random among the fourth graders of D elementary school, Nam-gu, Busan city. Next, I created and applied the teaching -learning program to them. I watched their learning processes in class in detail, and I analyzed their responses by making them write about their opinions and take tests after class.

Therefore I conclude that the number cards were beneficial to increase the learning effects, by stimulating learners who are familiar with number cards to be curious and reducing the burden of high numbers which they usually think difficult.

Second, the chart of place values helped learners increase their learning effects, by making them take lessons with confidence without the burden of making mistakes.

Besides, place values modular flip charts were helpful for understanding the place values and the principle of positional notation easily by making use of visual effects. Namely, the learning by the simply produced mathematics materials was effective for the learners' grasping their place values as well as the concept of high numbers.
