Abstract

This study attempted to propose a theoretical model for STEAM education, entitled to the Ewha-STEAM education model, which could provide more concrete guidelines for science educators and curriculum developers to execute STEAM ideas. We identified key knowledge and key competencies to nurture future creative/convergent human resources. Key knowledge included an understanding of core ideas cutting across traditional disciplinary boundaries as well as the nature of different disciplines. And additionally, key competencies implied such abilities as to explore the scientific world, to resolve problems, and to communicate and collaborate with others. We also added creativity and character as an essential part of key competencies. In order to provide more specific guidelines when developing, implementing, and evaluating STEAM curriculum, we suggested three elements of convergence to consider: 1) unit of convergence (i.e. concept/skills, problem/phenomenon, activity), 2) degree of convergence (i.e. multi-disciplinary, inter-disciplinary, extra-disciplinary), and 3) context of convergence (i.e. personal, societal, global). It is expected that the Ewha-STEAM education model would contribute towards diverse education communities understanding the direction of STEAM education and its educational potentials.

본 연구에서는 21세기 미래 융합 인재 양성을 위해 도입된 융합인재교육(STEAM 융합 교육)의 이론적 틀을 마련하고, 융합인재교육의 방향성을 구체화하며, 교사들이 현장에서 융합인재교육을 실행하는 데 필요한 가이드라인을 제공하기 위한 목적으로 개발된 Ewha-STEAM 융합모형을 소개하였다. Ewha-STEAM 융합모형은 미래 융합 인재가 갖추어야 할 핵심 지식과 핵심 역량을 도출하여 융합인재교육의 방향성을 명확히 하고자 하였다. 핵심 지식이란 창의 융합형 인재가 갖추어야 하는 기본 지식을 의미하며, 여러 학문을 연계하는 교과기반 통합 개념과 서로 다른 특성을 지닌 학문을 융합하기 위해 요구되는 각 학문의 본성에 대한 이해와 같은 소양 지식으로 나눌 수 있다. 핵심 역량이란 창의 융합형 인재가 갖추어야 하는 기본 역량으로, 각 교과를 기반으로 하되 여러 학문 영역에 전이되어 문제를 해결할 수 있는 교과기반 통합 역량과 미래 사회에서 새로움을 창조하고 지속가능한 발전을 이끌어나가기 위해 요구되는 창의 인성 역량으로 나누어 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 융합인재교육을 위한 교육과정을 운영하거나 교육프로그램을 개발할 때 고려해야 하는 세 가지 융합요소를 도출하였다. 첫 번째 요소는 융합 단위로서 학교 현장의 수업 운영 방식을 고려하여 개념/탐구과정, 문제/현상, 체험활동의 세 단개로 나누었다. 두 번째 요소는 융합 방식으로 서로 다른 교과목을 어느 정도 융합할 것인가에 대한 것이다. 융합 정도에 따라 다학문적, 간학문적, 탈학문적 융합으로 분류하였다. 마지막 세 번째 요소는 융합 맥락이다. 글로벌 사회에서의 융합은 개인차원을 넘어, 지역 사회, 나아가 전 세계적인 맥락에서 고려해 볼 수 있다. 이에 따라 개인적 맥락, 지역 사회적 맥락, 세계적 맥락의 세 단계로 나누었다. Ewha-STEAM 융합모형은 앞으로 융합인재 교육의 방향성과 잠재성에 대한 합의를 이끌어 내고, 양질의 융합교육 프로그램을 개발하거나 개발된 융합 프로그램을 평가하는데 큰 기여를 할 것으로 기대된다.
