The purpose of this research was to evaluate concretely how the 7th Technology Home Economics(HE) curriculum was operated In school fields by using context evaluation, input evaluation using the CIPP model focusing HE. In this research. a questionnaire survey was done targeting HE teachers in charge of technology and home economics subject for the 7th curriculum implementation at 250 randomly selected middle schools in Gpoungsangnamdo, and 109 returned questionnaire papers were used for the final analysis. The frequency, percent, mean and standard deviation of these data were obtained by using the SPSS 10.0 for Windows Program. The results of this research were outlined below: First, with a regard to the context evaluation (evaluating educational contexts), the requirement degree of seeking for career appeared to be the highest at the requirement survey of the education goal and character of HE area, and the requirement degree of elevating understanding home living' were very low. Interest and concern of students towards these subject as well as the self-confidence of HE teachers in charge were low. Second, as for the input evaluation (evaluating education plans), time allocation, content level, and content amount were not regarded to be not proper, and the composition of HE educational curriculums and the class guideline of teachers also were not so faithful from the aspect of school level. Among surveyed items, establishing plans in school level towards evaluation was relatively sincere, but discussions about curriculums were not so faithful, suggesting various kinds of content are not fully discussed. As shown by the results above, it is difficult to say that the operation of the 7th HE educational curriculums has secured its position perfectly. It is necessary to examine systematically the educational goals. character of the 7th HE educational curriculum and the appropriateness of curriculum content, and to seek various methods to elevate the self confidence of teachers and the interests of students.

In addition, educational curriculums should be operated and evaluated mainly by teachers at school fields to make it possible to confirm and check the achievement of the goals of educational curriculums qualitatively.

본 연구의 목적은 제7차 가정 교육과정에 대해 CIPP모형을 적용한 상황과 투입을 평가하여 차기 가정과 교육과정의 발전에 기여하는데 있다. 본 연구는 경상남도에 소재한 중학교 가운데임의 표집한 250 개교에서 제7차 교육과정 기술 가정교과의 가정 영역을 담당하고 있는 교사를 대상으로 설문지를 발송한 후, 응답 수집된 109명의 설문지를 최종 분석 자료로 사용하여 이루어졌다. 자료에 대해서는 SPSS 10.0 for Windows 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도, 비율, 평균, 표준편차를 산출하였다. 연구결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 상황 평가(교육 상황 평가)로 보면 가정 교육과정의 교육목표와 성격에 대한 요구 조사에서 '진로탐색'에 대한 요구도가 높게 나타나고, '가정생활에 대한 이해를 높임'에 대한 요구도는 낮게 나타났다. 담당 교사의 자신감도 부족하지만, 교과에 대한 학생의 흥미와 관심도 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째. 투입 평가(교육 계획 평가)로 보면 기술 가정 교육과정의 가정 영역에 대한 적절성에서 시간 배당, 내용 수준, 내용 분량에 대해 적절하지 못하다고 여기는 것으로 나타났으며 학교 수준에서 기술 가정 교육과정 구성과 교사의 수업지도안도 충실하게 이루어지지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 조사 항목 중에서 평가에 대한 학교 수준 계획 수립이 상대적으로 충실한 것으로 나타났고, 이에 비하여 교과 협의는 충실하게 이루어지지 않아 다양한 내용들을 제대로 협의하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
