This study was aimed at review the teaching-learning effects from the viewpoint of the pedagogic philosophy of 'constructivism' in an effort to find an alternative to help establish the level-wise curriculum successfully.
The specific study points were set up as follows;
1. Would there be any difference of students' learning attitude between two models in the unit of exponential function and logarithmic function?
2. Would there be any difference of students' learning achievement between two models in the unit of exponential function and logarithmic function?
In this study, the teaching-learning theories suggested by proponents of constructivism were reviewed to design the teaching-learning model which would be tested for 10 sessions for 4 weeks. To this end, those students whose school performances were lower were sampled to be divided at random into test and control groups; the test group was subject to the constructivism model, while the control group was subject to the conventional model. The methods of study were quantitative approaches, while the tools of study were learning attitude scale, performance scale.
There was found no significant difference of school performances between two groups (t=-.812, probability of significance=.420) at the significance level of .05, which may be attributable to the fact that the period of test was too short (4 weeks).
Although this study was conducted for a relatively short period, it may be significant in that the constructivism theories reflected in recent mathematics education reforms were applied to the class room. Lastly, it is hoped that this study will be followed up by future studies which will develop students' self-initiated teaching-learning models.
