새 국어과 교육과정 문법 영역의 비판적 이해

Abstract

This study discussed the new curriculum and the 7th curriculum of the Korean Language Education in the field of grammar. I tried to consider the feature of the new curriculum on critical point of view and focused on the properties, aim, organization of contents and contents of each grade. Improvement of thinking ability through inquiry activities of linguistic phenomenon is emphasized in the new curriculum of the Korean Language Education in the field of grammar. However, the special feature was not reflected in the parts of aim and contents in the concrete. So this study discussed that the necessity of consideration for it when the new textbook is developed or revised after. The contents organization in the field of grammar was changed a great deal. First, the title was changed from 'the Knowledge of the Korean Language' to 'Grammar'. Second, the categories are changed from the substance of Korean Language, the understanding and inquiry about Korean Language, the attitude for it and the standard and use of it to the practice of the Korean Language use, the Knowledge, the inquiry and context. This study suggested changing 'the practice of using the Korean language' into 'the practice of inquiry in the phenomenon of the Korean language and the application of grammar' and the revised contents organization in the field of grammar as considering the characteristics of the grammar part and the others or the Korean language. In the contents in grammar part of each grade, I discussed 'the change of presentation method on the curriculum for learning by level' and 'the contents (achievement standards) optimization' etc. Also I pointed out that the contents seem to reduce numerically, but there is strong possibility of increase in fact, and the presentation of the level and range of linguistics data is redundant, nonobjective contents presentation standard and lack of enough consideration of contents for inquiry activities etc.
