초등교사 양성대학의 교육과정 분석

Abstract

There are 13 universities or colleges for elementary school teacher in Korea today. The curricula organized in these institutions consist of four kinds of course: general education course, teacher training course, major course, and specialization course. The curricula are developed with several laws and policies legalized by Ministry of Education. Least of all, the areas, the names, and credits of three courses except of general education course are regulated by the laws severely. In this paper, I tried to seek out current problems and tentative solutions for the curricula organized in the institutions and the laws and policies on the curricula against one another. The results are as following:First, there is no problem in the credits of the curricula implemented in the universities or colleges legally. Second, the areas and the names of teacher training course and major course are not matched with the laws and policies. The gap between the curricula and the laws and policies could be bridged in two ways. One is to revised the curricula in view of the laws and policies, another is to reformed the laws and policies in light of the situations of the universities or colleges and elementary schools. To achieve the desired outcomes, the gap have to be closed in two way like this. I expect interactive endeavors on this way in the future.
