Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine middle school students' (N= 153) perceptions of motivational climate (teacher learning/teacher comparison/peer learning/peer comparison/peer worry) and their achievement goals (task/performance/performance-avoidance). The influence of perceptions of motivational climate emphasized by science teachers and/or peers on achievement goals was explored by stepwise regression. Although there was no difference in male/female perceptions of motivational climate, there was significant difference in their achievement goals. Regression result indicated that the pursuit of learning by peers made the strongest contribution to students' task goal. On the other hand, promotion via comparison by science teachers or peers had little effect on inducing performance goal. Anxieties about mistakes were found to be the strongest contribution to predictions on students' performance-avoidance goal. The promotion of comparison by science teachers was related to not only performance goal, but also performance-avoidance goal. Lastly educational implications for intervention efforts designed to enhance the quality of student motivational development in science education are discussed.

본 연구는 중학교 153명을 대상으로 과학 수업에서 교사와 동료 학생에 의해 강조되는 동기적 학습 환경에 대한 인식(교사의 학습 장려/교사의 상대적 비교 강조/동료들의 자기 개선 및 자기 발전 추구/동료들의 상대적 우월성 추구/실수에 대한 걱정)과 성취 목적(과제 지향/수행 지향/수행 회피)을 조사하였다. 동기적 학습 환경에 대한 인식이 성취 목적에 미치는 영향을 단계적 중다회귀분석으로 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 동기적 학습 환경에 대한 인식에서는 성에 따른 차이가 없었으나, 성취 목적에서는 유의미한 성별 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 회귀 분석 결과에서는 과학 수업에서 동료 학생이 학습에 대한 자기 개선이나 자기 발전을 중요시 한다고 인식하는 것은 학생들이 과제 지향 목적을 가지도록 유도하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 과학 교사나 동료 학생이 상대적 우월성 및 비교를 추구한다고 인식하는 것은 학생들이 수행 지향 목적을 가지도록 유도하였으며, 동료 학생이 실수에 대해 걱정한다고 인식하는 것은 수행 회피 목적을 가지도록 이끌었다. 과학 교사의 상대적 우월성 및 비교 강조는 수행 지향 목적뿐만 아니라 수행 회피 목적의 채택에도 영향을 미쳤다. 본 연구 결과는 과학 교육에서 학생들의 긍정적인 동기를 유발시킬 수 있는 교수방법에 대해 시사점을 제공한다.
