고등학교 디지털교과서를 대비한 ‘중국어Ⅰ’ e-book 현황 연구

Abstract

A digital textbook is a textbook with the structure and contents of a paper textbook, but with digital functions added to it. According to the textbook development plan of the Ministry of Education, currently digital textbooks were distributed only for English subjects in high schools, and ‘Chinese I’ subjects are still in the form of e-books. However, the Ministry of Education plans to announce a new curriculum in 2022, and there is a possibility that ‘Chinese I’ will be converted into a digital textbook in the future. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the digital textbook in depth and prepare to reflect the current status of the 'Chinese I e-book' in the development of new textbooks. Thus, this paper examined the development principles of high school digital textbooks, analyzed the pros and cons of the ‘Chinese I’ e-book, and then made suggestions for the future development of digital textbooks. Among the 11 types of current 'Chinese I' textbooks, 4 types of textbooks were selected because these e-books cover the four language skills separately and provide relatively various viewer functions. First, the paper examined the differences between digital textbooks and e-books through the concept of high school digital textbooks. Next, the development principle was derived through the verification standards of digital textbooks. Based on these principles, the four ‘Chinese I’ e-books were divided into eight areas: unit introduction, listening, speaking, reading, writing, activity, confirmation problem, and culture, and the strengths and weaknesses of each area were analyzed. The current 'Chinese I' e-book provides additional teaching and learning materials not found in paper textbooks through various viewer-providing functions, and encourages self-directed learning and learning by level. However, it is necessary to provide additional functions that can promote various interactions between teachers and students, students and students, and students and content. In addition, by strengthening the platform area, the insufficient areas in teaching/learning materials, methods, and evaluation must be supplemented. In the future, we expect the development of digital textbooks that are much more effective than e-books.
