해외 교육 봉사활동 체제에 대한 연구: 니카라과를 중심으로

Abstract

The National Institute for International Education (NIIED) supports a short-term overseas education volunteer activity for ODA countries for pre-service teachers. The aim of this study was to understand the status of this volunteer activity in the stages of preparation, performance and wrapping-up by analyzing the system of the volunteer activity. In addition, we attempted to analyze the conflict in the volunteer activity and discuss a development plan. We analyzed the volunteer activity performed in Nicaragua, and compared it with the cases in Tanzania, Philippines and Timor-Leste. We gathered the data such as the journals written by the director and final reports, etc. and analyzed the data by the frame of six elements from the cultural historical activity theory. The research subject includes pre-service teacher, in-service teacher and professor, and the object consists of classroom teaching and learning, activities requested by ODA countries, post management, event, advertisement, rest, preparation and evaluation. The tool included verbal and non-verbal language, social media, educational materials and classroom facilities. The community consisted of university staff, embassy, co-teachers, foreign school members, foreign situation related to the safety and health, and food, etc. The rule included NIIED regulations, airplane regulations, foreign school rules and culture, and group rules. The division of labor refers to the various roles which the subjects and the community members are taking part in. The conflicts in the volunteer activity were classified into those inside the element and those between elements. The system of the volunteer activity was represented in a figure. This study is expected to establish the basis of long-term research on the overseas education volunteer activity for pre-service teachers.
