초록

과학교육에서는 과학과 기술과 관련된 사회적 또는 환경 문제의 증가를 더 이상 간과할 수가 없게 되었고, 이로 인해 과학-기술-사회-환경(Science-Technology, Society-the Environment: STSE)교육을 통한 실천적 과학 소양의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구는 환경 내용을 다룬 초등학교 6학년 2학기 과학 단원, 3. 쾌적한 환경을 학습하는 과정에서 환경 중심 STSE 교육의 어려움과 그 가능성에 대하여 고찰하고자 하였다. 초등학교 6학년 두 개의 반 아동 86명은 단원 학습에 참여하는 동안 설문, 그리기와 쓰기, 면담에 참여하였다. 수집된 자료는 아동들의 과학-기술-사회-환경의 관련성에 대한 인식과 과학 지식의 실천적 소양이라는 측면에서 분석되었다. 결과로는 첫째, 과학-기술-사회-환경의 관계에 대한 아동들의 인식은 현대 사회가 가지고 있는 가치관과 복잡하게 얽혀 있었으며, 이 안에서 과학/기술의 발전은 사회 발전과 환경 문제의 두 측면에서 다소 상반적인 관계를 보였다. 둘째, 환경 문제에 대한 아동의 인식은 높은 반면 실천적 소양의 측면은 상대적으로 낮았다. 셋째, 과학-환경 지식은 환경 문제 인식과 문제 해결에 그다지 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 본 논문은 실천적 과학 소양을 위한 과학-기술-사회-환경 교육의 문제점과 어려움에 대해 논의한다.
