초등 실과 교과서의 ‘진로교육’ 단원 분석 -2015 개정 교육과정을 중심으로-

Abstract

This study analyzes the outer and inner system of the newly developed Career Education units of Practical Arts textbooks based on the 2015 Revised Curriculum. This research aims to provide base line data for the enhancement of class efficiency and future development of diverse textbooks. The analysis criteria were decided to be unit structure and page numbers, unit system, learning objectives, unit supporting materials, information quantity and quality, experience activity, contents element, arrangement and evaluation. The results of the study are as follows: Career Education unit was assigned to the fifth grade. Units are organized into a system that includes introduction, development, and arrangement. Most textbooks applied ‘main text format’, ‘experience inner activities’ for the format of the contents. Main text supplement or deepening was the most common type of supplementary material. It seems necessary to improve the quantity and quality of supplementary materials by including various types of material. Learning materials were divided into ‘explaining purposes’ and ‘learning activities’ with similar weights while experience activities were divided almost equally into ‘individual activities’ and ‘inner experience activities’. Most textbooks are assessed using ‘convergence evaluation’. It seems better to balance convergence evaluation methods and diffusion evaluation methods. Suggestions based on the findings of this study are as follows: More efforts are needed for career education to be effectively applied through the development of diverse learning materials, the research of diverse textbooks and the development of teacher training programs.
