대학수학능력시험의 수리 영역 ‘나’형 문항 분석 및 출제경향에 관한 연구(2006～2008)

Abstract

College Scholastic Aptitude Test has its tremendous impact not only on the secondary-level math education but also on the tertiary-level math education on the whole. Therefore, it is vital to analyze and study each item presented in the mathematics domain and the recent test trend by way of finding effective methods of teaching and learning. In this thesis, we study on items in the Math A of the 2006, 2007, and 2008 College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT) based on the seventh National Curriculum. The items in the type ‘NA (나)’ were classified into content domain and activity domain. First, in the Math of the 2006 CSAT, there were 3 to 5 items from each unit, which means the year's math test had appropriate proportion of items taken from the content domain. Second, in the Math of the 2007 CSAT, there were 2 items from permutations and combinations and 6 items, exponent and logarithm. The items in the content domain were not set evenly. Third, in the Math of the 2008 CSAT, there were 3 to 6 items from each unit. The items in the content domain were set relatively evenly. Forth, in the calculation domain, the items were in line with the intent of refraining from assessing the ability of simple calculation and of memorizing simple formulas. Fifth, in the understanding domain, there were the items which can be easily solved with the understanding of the basic concepts and principles of mathematics. So we can conclude the items given in this domain were quite suitable to the test intent. Lastly, in the problem solving domain, all the items suited the test intent of the domain that problems concerning people's everyday life and other subjects should be presented. It is predicted that there will be increase in the number of the problem items in this domain, as the Seventh National Curriculum stresses upon students' empowerment of mathematical skills.
