본 연구의 목적은 몽골어 수학 인식론적 신념 척도를 개발·타당화하며, 한국과 몽골 수학 예비교사들의 수학 인식론적 신념을 비교하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 박철영(2012)이 제시한 6요인 38개 문항으로 구성된 수학 인식론적 신념에 대한 검사를 사용하였다. 먼저, 박철영(2012)의 검사 도구를 몽골어로 번역하여 수학 인식론적 신념 검사의 몽골어 버전을 개발하였으며, 몽골 국립교육대학교 및 몽골 국립대학교에 재학 중인 수학 예비교사 304명을 대상으로 예비조사를 실시하였다. 이를 기반으로 탐색적 요인분석과 신뢰도 분석을 실시하였으며, 신뢰도가 낮은 문항이나, 이론적 틀에 부합하지 않는 8개 문항들을 제외하여 본 조사 문항을 선정하였다. 둘째, 예비조사 결과로 추출된 6요인 30문항을 활용하여, 본 조사(몽골 수학 예비교사 309명 대상)를 실시하였으며, 신뢰도분석, 탐색적 요인분석, 확인적 요인분석을 수행하였다. 셋째, 한국과 몽골 수학 예비교사들의 수학 인식론적 신념을 비교하기 위해서, 한국의 사범대학교 수학교육학과에 재학 중인 수학 예비교사 323명을 대상으로 수학 인식론적 신념 검사를 실시하였으며, 국가에 따른 교차분석, 국가와 성별, 국가와 학년에 따른 이원분산분석을 실행하였다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면, 수학의 유용성, 수학적 지식 구조, 수학 문제 해결에 대한 인식론적 신념에서 한국 수학 예비교사들이 높은 평균을 나타냈고, 반면에 선천적 능력, 수학학습에 대한 효능감에 대한 신념에 있어서 몽골 수학 예비교사들의 응답 평균이 높게 나타났으며, 수학 학습 속도에 대한 신념에서는 유의미한 차이가 발견되지 않았다.
Recent years it has been required to be a problem solver, initiator, and creative-thinker to step forward along the rapid development of our society. Mathematics is one of the important and significant subjects to solve problems as it is regarded as the Queen of Sciences (Carl Fredrich Gauss) and is a core science to understand not only natural science but also social science. Therefore, nations around the world put more effort on mathematical education and its efficiency. As for Mongolia, policy makers of education adopted and implemented teaching techniques and methods from the scientifically developed countries such as USA, Japan and Republic of Korea. However, successful techniques for optimal teaching has not been founded yet. The purpose of this study was to investigate the attitudes towards mathematics and the epistemological beliefs about mathematics of pre-service teachers who belong to the education of Mathematics department, Mongolian and Korean universities. According to this aim, there are two research questions are put forward as illustrated in the below: 1. In what level is the epistemological beliefs about Mathematics in Mongolian setting? 2. What is the difference between of Mongolian and Korean pre-service teachers'' epistemological beliefs of Mathematics? To identify epistemological beliefs about mathematics in Mongolian setting, the epistemological beliefs questionnaire (with 6 factors including 38 items) of Park, Chul-Young (2012) was adapted as preliminary instrument. The Double Translation was used to convert this questionnaire to administer Mongolian participants. 304 pre-service teachers at the National University of Mongolia and Mongolian State University of Education were participated in this study and the gathered data was analysed by the factor and reliability analysis of SPSS program. As a result, eight items were deleted from the instrument for further determination of Mathematics beliefs in Mongolian setting and the post instrument with six factors including 30 items were settled. To investigate the attitudes towards mathematics and epistemological beliefs of mathematics in Mongolian setting, 309 pre-service, freshmen to senior, teachers at the National University of Mongolia and Mongolian State University of Education were participated in this study. To answer to the first research question, the collected data was analysed by the factor and reliability analysis of SPSS program and a confirmatory factor analysis of AMOS program. Furthermore, to compare Mongolian and Korean pre-service teachers'' mathematical beliefs, the post instrument (6 factors 30 items) were administered to 323 Korean pre-service teachers (from freshmen to senior) at education of mathematics department, Korean university. The collected data was analysed by T-test as well as cross tabs analysis based on 30 items to answer the second research question. Moreover, pre-service teachers'', from two (Mongolian and Korean) countries, gender and year of study were classified and used univariate analysis in order to reveal the pre-service teachers'' attitudes towards mathematics. The result from the comparison of mathematical beliefs between Mongolian and Korean pre-service teachers showed that Korean pre-service teachers''s attitudes and epistemological beliefs by different factors on the instrument such as the structure of mathematical knowledge, the usefulness and significance of mathematics, mathematical problem solving were higher than Mongolian pre-service teachers. On the other hand, their beliefs were lower by the factors such as innate ability and mathematical learning efficacy. Regarding the study, epistemological beliefs of teachers and middle and high school students should be studied thoroughly in the further as well as their attitudes towards Mathematics should be altered.
