초록
본 연구는 중학교 학생의 기술지향, 생태지향 및 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관을 조사하여 교육적 시사점을 얻고자 하였다. 중학교 학생의 환경적 세계관은 자연 환경 영역 자연에서의 사람의 가치, 자연환경의 가치, 사람의 자연 지배, 환경 생태계의 평형 유지 능력의 4개범주, 사람의 행동과 환경 영역은 에너지 및 자원 고갈, 기술 개발, 경제 성장, 환경 문제의 심각성의 4개 범주 등 2개 영역, 총 8개 범주로구분하여 조사하였다. 연구 대상은 10개 중학교 남학생 152명, 여학생224명 등 총 356명이었으며, 온라인 설문 조사 사이트에 자발적으로접속하여 리커르트 4점 척도(1∼4)로 응답하도록 하였다. 중학교 학생들은 기술지향 환경적 세계관 보다는 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관과 생태지향 환경적 세계관을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 중학교 여학생이 남학생에서 비해 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관에 대한 높은 경향성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 중학교 학생이 지속가능발전 환경적 세계관을 유지하고 이에 대응하여 실천할 수 있는 교육적 접근이 필요하다
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine middle school students’ environmental worldviews, focusing on the following: ‘Technocentric (TC)’, ‘Ecocentric (EC)’, and ‘Sustainable Development (SD)’ environmental worldviews. The instrument surveying the worldviews of middle school students comprised two components: ‘natural environment’ and ‘human action & environment’. The ‘natural environment’ component consisted of four categories. These were the value of humans in nature, the value of natural environments, nature reigned by humans, and the equilibrium sustaining power of environmental ecosystems. The ‘human action & environment’ component also consisted of four categories. These were the depletion of energy & resources, technology development, economic growth, and the severity of environmental problems. The subjects were 376 middle school students (152 males and 224 females), who were selected from 10 middle schools, and they answered question items by themselves through an online survey system. They displayed more ‘Sustainable Development environmental worldviews’ and ‘Ecocentric environmental worldviews’ than ‘Technocentric environmental worldviews’. Furthermore, the female students displayed more ‘Sustainable Development environmental worldviews’ than the males. Hence, it is necessary to implement educational approaches that address and relate to the sustainable development environmental worldviews of middle school students.
