What an individual values and regards as important has a significant impact on his or her learning. Classroom instruction would be even more effective if what the teacher regards as important in his or her pedagogical practice are aligned with what students regard as important too. Given this background, this study sought to find out what Korean students valued about mathematics and mathematics learning using a questionnaire developed by Seah (2005). The participants were 409 students from Grade 6 and 407 students from Grade 9 in Korea. The results of this study showed that students put the biggest emphasis on ideological aspects of mathematics, specifically rationalism, among mathematical values. The students also valued product, computation, process, exposition, and recalling among values related to the learning of mathematics. A comparative analysis between the two groups of students showed that sixth graders tended to think more positively with regards to each value than ninth graders. On the basis of these results, this paper raises some issues about students’ values in mathematics learning. It also suggests that teachers need to consider what students value and regard as important in their mathematics learning to bring about even more effective instruction.

Abstract

What an individual values and regards as important has a significant impact on his or her learning. Classroom instruction would be even more effective if what the teacher regards as important in his or her pedagogical practice are aligned with what students regard as important too. Given this background, this study sought to find out what Korean students valued about mathematics and mathematics learning using a questionnaire developed by Seah (2005). The participants were 409 students from Grade 6 and 407 students from Grade 9 in Korea. The results of this study showed that students put the biggest emphasis on ideological aspects of mathematics, specifically rationalism, among mathematical values. The students also valued product, computation, process, exposition, and recalling among values related to the learning of mathematics. A comparative analysis between the two groups of students showed that sixth graders tended to think more positively with regards to each value than ninth graders. On the basis of these results, this paper raises some issues about students’ values in mathematics learning. It also suggests that teachers need to consider what students value and regard as important in their mathematics learning to bring about even more effective instruction.
