진로진학상담교사의 역량모형 개발

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a model of competencies for career education & guidance counseling teachers to identify the required performance levels needed to select future career education & guidance counseling teachers. This model is also needed for use within in-service training programs and evaluations for career education teachers and school counselors. This study was conducted according to the following procedures. First, a draft of 5 competency groups and a competency model with 19 competencies was developed through a literature review, and career education & guidance counseling teachers’ interviews and open surveys. 58 competencies were derived from these activities and examined by an internal expert. Second, a draft comprised of 19 competencies was confirmed by subjecting it to the first round of the Delphi method. Third, a survey of career education & guidance counseling teachers was conducted. Lastly, the final competency model was developed and verified by putting it through the second round of the Delphi method with an external efficiency expert. This study produced several results. First, the study produced a competence model for career education & guidance counseling teachers composed of the following 3 competency categories: knowledge of theory, job execution, and attitude qualifications; and the following 12 competency elements: counseling skills, examination skills, guidance skills, program planning skills, program management skills, work administration handling skills, network skills, teaching skills, information processing skills, personal management skills, lifelong education skills, and communication skills. Second, an examination revealed that the average of the required levels for career education & guidance counseling teachers was 4.91 points and the actual performance levels average was 3.93, demonstrating that on average performances are lower than the required levels. Third, the required levels and the performance levels were compared and analyzed using the competence model grid which revealed that the skill most in demand was the counseling (empathy) skill. And finally, analysis showed differences between middle schools and high schools’ required and performance levels according to school type. There were significant differences between the information skills of middle schools and high schools and between the information skills and the network skills among high school types.
