Abstract

This research aims to review on research trends of museum educational programmes which show pedagogical and theoretical approaches. Given crucial role of museum education, therefore, this research focuses on the varieties of theories that are actually appeared onto the researches, and the tendencies of those kinds of researches. Based on this work, not only it becomes the threshold of similar research areas but it would be solid standpoint for museum education. The targets are all 34 papers that are published from 2014 to 2019 and searched in Korea Education and Research Information Service with ‘museum education’ keyword. Reviewed all of papers, we finally divided them into 6 themes which are applied theories, selected museums, methodologies, target audiences, related national curriculums and universities. First of all, 27 applied pedagogical theories have been defined and they are divided into five categories; Pedagogic Strategy(2), Pedagogic Psychology(2), Learning Strategy(16), Learning Methodology(5), Learning Implementation(2). Among them learning strategy category has been implied with 16 theories and this is the majority of all. Problem Based Learning of learning strategy is the most favoured theory and this is a branch of the constructivism. Secondly, total 27 museums have been chosen for the researches and 22 papers reviewed national and provincial museums. Most of museums that are selected for the research are based on the capital areas(Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon) whereas other locals show low distribution. Thirdly, mixed methodology(quantitative and qualitative) are mainly used in this kind of research such as interview, mind-map and writing journals. Targets for the research are usually students, most likely 4th to 6th grade of primary schools. Fifth, among curriculums, history and arts are heavily connected to the research while other subjects show rare application. Finally Kyeonghee University produced the highest number of 16 museum education theses followed by other universities. Among them, Dong-A University is the only local while others are all located in the capital areas. Based on the results of this work, more summative research will be prepared for future museum education and theories which are applied will be reviewed thoroughly in the real museum programmes. Furthermore, research trends of papers that are reviewed museum and school learning environment should be highlighted in the near future in order to widen spectrum of museum education.
