A Critical Exploration of Mathematics Learning Trajectories Research in the Korean Context: A Systematic Literature Review

초록

This paper conducts a systematic literature review of research on mathematics learning trajectories within the Korean context and suggests directions for future learning trajectory research. Specifically, the aim of this review is to illuminate the trends of existing and emerging research on learning trajectories in the Korean context, ultimately guiding future research directions in the international research and practice field. This review critically examines 32 articles published in Korea Citation Index journals and reports on national research projects, focusing on the necessities, purposes, and types of research categorized by mathematical content area, as well as the theoretical frameworks used. The results reveal that the types of learning trajectory research conducted in Korea are diverse, encompassing exploration, development, and application of learning trajectories. We suggest that the learning trajectories research warrants further investigation, including discussion on different perspectives in the international contexts. We also posit that these types of research have the potential to create synergy when conducted in a connected series, rather than as disconnected studies.
