초록

The purpose of this study was to analyze the types of tables and the difficulty level of tabling activities according to science contents (energy, matter, life, earth) and grade levels (7th, 8th, 9th) implemented in the 9 editions of Korean middle school science textbooks. The results showed, first, that the table consisting of one independent variable and two or more dependent variables was most frequently used(45.1%). No correlation between grade levels and types of table used was observed. Second, there were table constructing activities (52.2%) and table interpreting activities (47.8%) with equal amount. Such interpreting activities were also found to be most frequently required for subjects relating to earth (34.7%) and life (28.0%), whereas constructing activities were more frequently required for subjects relating to energy (31.2%) and matter (27.9%). Both types of tabling activity was most frequently found at the 9th grade level. Lastly, interpreting activities of extracting information from data (53.8%) and interpreting activities of finding relationships in the data (45.0%) were most used in subjects related to life. Interpreting activities of applying and calculating from data were most used in subjects related to matter (39.4%). Furthermore, constructing activities with guidance of values of variables were most used for subjects related to life (31.8%) and constructing activities with guidance of variables were most used for subjects related to energy (33.6%) and matter (27.2%). Constructing activities without guidance were most used for subjects related to matter (75.0%). Also no relationship between activity levels and grade levels was observed for table interpreting and constructing activities.
