홀리스틱 교육과 현상학적 연구 방법론

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study about the application of the phenomenological approach to the fields of holistic education. The phenomenological approach is different from any other researches in the fields of education. The phenomenological approach has a type of qualitative research methods which will describe a subject's experience. The phenomenological approach which pursues to understand a subject’s inner world reflect on the perspectives of holistic education in many cases. The perspective of holistic education based on the holism that are willing to grasp intermingled connection as a whole. From this view the holistic educators aim to educate whole person fully educating not only his minds and body but his spirituality. In the holistic education teacher educate learner to be a whole person who became a harmonized growth and so teacher as a holistic researchers need to the ability to understand to the learner's inner world and to help drawing out his potentiality. The phenomenological approach has three kinds of research dimension. The first dimension is to understand to the others’s experience and the second is to study the essence of the Being, and the third is to investigate to transcendence, in other words transformation, connectedness etc. In this paper the reason why the main issues of the holistic education might be researched by the phenomenological approach, understanding others experience, studying the essence of the Being, investigating transcendence can be explained by the phenomenological approach. In last chapter I searched to applicate phenomenological views in the context of teaching and learning in holistic education. The intention of this search is to use phenomenological view as a practical method which can be well connected theory and practice. From this search I’d like to suggest that the phenomenological approach give new applicable method in the practice(for exam. in the context of teaching-learning situation) as well as the research field.
