중학교 ‘기술·가정’과 ‘제조 기술 체험과 문제해결활동’ 단원에서 문제기반학습이 학업성취도에 미치는 효과

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of problem-based learning on the learning achievement for the unit, 'The experience of ‘Manufacturing technology and Problem Solving Activity’ in the middle school ‘Technology-home Economics’. The experiment was designed as true experimental design, randomized posttest-only control group design. Problem-based learning was applied to the experimental group whereas traditional learning was used on the control group. Post evaluation scores were obtained from learning achievement tests given to two groups. The scores were verified at the level of .05 significance by independent sample test through SPSS/sin 12.0 program. The results of this study are summaries as below. First, It is shown that learning achievement of the experimental group, which took the problem-based learning treatment, is higher than the that of the control group, which received traditional group learning. The results of t-test results is statistically significant. Second, It is shown that learning achievement of the divergers․assimilators․convergers․accommodators learning styles of the experimental group, which took the problem-based learning treatment, is higher than the that of the divergers․assimilators․convergers․accommodators learning styles of the control group, which received traditional group learning. The results of t-test is statistically significant. Third, It is shown that learning achievement of the entering behavior 0-20%, 21-80%, 81-100% of the experimental group, which took the problem-based learning treatment, is higher than the that of the entering behavior 0-20%, 21-80%, 81-100% of the control group, which received traditional group learning. However, t-test results are only significant entering behavior 21-80%, 81-100% and entering behavior 0-20% is not significant. In summary, this study gives evidence that problem-based learning helps to promote learning achievement for ‘The experience of ’Manufacturing technology and problem solving activity’ from the middle school ‘Technology-home economics’. In addition, it is verified that learning style have impact on learning achievement.
