과학고의 고교학점제 관련 교육과정 운영 현황 분석

Abstract

This study aims to explore improvements in the curriculum operation of science high school related to the high school credit system. For this purpose, a literature review was conducted to analyze the curriculum organization of 20 science high schools. Additionally, a survey was conducted to find out the curriculum operation status related to high school credit system for teachers in charge. As a result of the analysis, compared to high school credit system research schools, science high schools had many school-designated subjects that students had to complete, but fewer subjects that students could choose from. Among the various systems promoted to expand students’ subject choices, science high schools organized many subjects other than non-notified subject and small-size class subject, but there were fewer joint curriculum and community-related subjects. Second, many science high schools have their own school regulations related to curriculum organization, so they are trying to expand students’ subject choices. Third, although there were break between classes in 12 science high schools, the average number of hours per week was less than 2 hours. Based on the research, this study proposed improvements in curriculum operation for the establishment of the high school credit system in science high schools.
