Abstract

In this thesis, PBL was applied to the subject for improving students' many skills that modern industrial society demands. Our engineering school developed PBL problems for PBL use, applied the problems to classes and confirmed the effectiveness of PBL. The study subjects were 63 freshman students in H University who took the 'Introduce of computer engineering'. We applied 5 PBL problems for 15 weeks. They wrote and submitted a reflective journal when they finished the every given PBL activity. In addition, they completed a class evaluation form after the activity of 5th PBL Problem ended. The study showed that the students experienced the effectiveness of PBL, such as the comprehension of the studied contents, the comprehension of the cooperative learning, authentic experience, creative problem-solving skills, presentation skills, communication ability, self-directed study ability and confidence. Some difficulties in gathering together and spending much time were also encountered. The students realized that the PBL learning activities were important methods because the students could develop into future intelligent engineers that modern industrial society demands through PBL learning activities. The main goal of an engineering school is to produce specialists with creative problem solving ability so that the effects of this study are quite promising for our engineering school.

본 논문은 학생들이 현대 산업사회에서 요구하는 여러 가지 능력을 기르기 위하여 PBL을 교과목에 적용하였다. 공과대학에서 PBL 활용을 위하여 PBL 문제를 개발하여 수업에 적용하고 PBL 효과를 확인하였다. 연구대상은 '컴퓨터공학입문' 교과목을 수강한 H대학 1학년 학생 63명이었으며, PBL수업은 15주에 5개의 PBL 문제를 적용하였다. 학생들은 주어진 문제의 PBL 활동이 끝날 때마다 성찰일지를 작성하여 제출하였으며, 5번째 PBL 문제 활동이 끝난 후에 PBL 활동에 대한 강의 평가지를 작성하였다. 연구 결과는 학습내용에 대한 이해, 협동학습에 대한 이해, 실제적 경험, 창의문제해결력, 프리젠테이션 스킬, 의사소통능력, 자기주도적 학습 능력, 자신감과 같은 다양한 PBL의 효과를 경험한 것으로 나타났다. PBL 활동 과정에서 함께 모이는 어려움, 시간이 많이 소요되는 어려움이 도출되기도 하였다. 학생들은 이 PBL 학습 활동은 현대 산업 사회에서 요구하는 미래의 유능한 엔지니어로서의 전문성을 기를 수 있는 중요한 방법이라고 인식하고 있었다. 이는 창의적 문제해결력을 갖춘 전문 인재를 육성하고자 하는 공과 대학 교육의 궁극적인 교육 목표 달성에 큰 시사점을 준다.
