초록

이 연구는 판 구조론에 대한 학생들의 개념을 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 충청도에 위치한 고등학교 2학년 70명의 학생들을 대상으로 판 구조론에 대한 시각적 표상의 개념 검사를 실시하였으며, 이중 10명의 학생들을 대상으로 반구조화된 면담을 진행하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 연구 참여자들은 판 구조론을 학습한 후에도 용어 및 색상의 의미, 판의 이동, 판의 경계, 용융의 위치 및 원인, 맨틀의 물리적 상태 및 판 운동의 원동력과 관련된 대안 개념을 가지고 있으며, 학생들이 가진 색상의 의미, 맨틀의 물리적 상태, 판 운동의 원동력 개념들은 유기적으로 관련되어 있었다. 또한 판 구조론 학습에 사용되는 시각적 표상은 용어, 판의 경계, 용융의 위치 및 맨틀의 물리적 특성에 대한 학생응답에 영향을 주었으며, 판 구조론 학습에서 학습자에게 대안 개념을 유발하는 시각적 표상의 요소들이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This study aimed to investigate high school students' conceptions of plate tectonics. Seventy students (N=70) in their 2 year of high schools in the province of Chungcheong-do participated in this study, and they took a conception test of visual representation. We conducted a semi-structured interview with 10 volunteering participants out of seventy. After learning about the concept of plate tectonics, this study found that participants ended up having alternative conceptions relating to terminology, meaning of colors, plates' movement, plates' boundaries, position and cause of melting, mantle's physical conditions, and driving forces of plate motion. The conceptions that the participants held after class were organically related, which included the meaning of colors, mantle's physical characteristic, and driving forces of plate movement. In addition, the visual representation used for teaching plate tectonics influenced the students' understanding about terminologies, plates' boundaries, position of melting, and the physical characteristic of mantle. The study found that there were the factors of visual representation that caused the learners to create alternative conceptions in learning about plate tectonics.
