초록
본 연구를 통하여 우리나라와 미국의 특수교육법에 나타난 IEP의 특징을 구체적으로 분석하여 양적 및 내용상의 차이점을 알아보았다. 우리나라는 1994년에 처음으로 특수교육 진흥법에 개별화 교육에 관한 규정을 제정하였으나 제도로서 IEP를 받아들인 것이 아니라 교수학습 이론의 하나로 받아들였던 것이다. 미국에서는 IEP가 없이는 장애 아동을 단 하루도 교육할 수 없으나 우리나라에서는 IEP가 없이도 교육할 수 있다. 그러므로 우리나라의 IEP와 미국의 IEP를 법적 측면에서 비교해 볼 때 우리나라의 IEP는 엄밀한 의미에서 IEP가 아니라고 할 수 있다.
Abstract
For the past 27 years, since the passage of P.L. 94-142, many countries adopted the Individualized Education Program(IEP) to improve the quality of education for children with disabilities. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act was passed in 1997 and its Final Regulations were enacted in 1999. Each State department of education enacted its rules relating to special education. The Korean ministry of education amended the Promotion Act of Special Education in 1994 and adopted IEP for betterment of special education. There are IEPs both in Korea and the United States. The purpose of this study was to analyze IEPs in the aspects of special education laws and to compare the differences between IEPs of two countries. In the results of analysis, Korea focused more on individualized instruction but the United States focused more on individual needs of the students they served as required. In this aspect we overlooked the importance of our services in helping children with disabilities study successfully in our school systems. We would amend the Promotion Act of Special Education in order to emphasize individual needs rather than individualized instruction.
