중.고등학생들의 과학-기술-사회(STS)에 관련된 문제와 STS 교육에 관한 인식 조사

The Perceptions of Korean Secondary Students Regarding Science-Technology-Society related Problems and STS Education

The purpose of this study was to investigate Korean secondary school students' perceptions of science and technology related social problems and STS education to ascertain the extent to which the current science programs incorporate STS themes. Students indicated that STS related problems or STS issues were given little attention in their science classes, even though they believed that studying those problems would be important. Results of the study support the contention of need for more attention to the implementation of STS themes into current Korean science education.
