Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to explore the professional identity of elementary school health teachers. Methods: In-depth interviews with fifteen elementary school health teachers were conducted from July 2010 to August 2012. Qualitative data collected by the researcher including transcription and field notes were analyzed through an adapted methodology based on the Grounded Theory of Strauss and Corbin. Results: Fifteen categories, 35 sub-categories and 120 concepts were obtained. The key category that was consistently maintained in identity formation was 'keeping themselves being a teacher providing nursing' which has three styles, 'focusing on health education', 'combining nursing and education' and 'focusing on providing nursing care'. Conclusion: Results of this study will provide basic information for preparing manuals regarding the range of activities in school health teachers' jobs, improving promotion and merit payment systems for school health teachers, creating support programs for them, and contributing to the formation and establishment of their professional identity.

목적 초등학교 보건교사의 직업정체성을 포괄적으로 이해하고 분석함으로써 보건교육에 대한 현장의 경험에 근거한 시각을 제공하고 초등학교 보건교사의 행동과 사고를 이해할 수 있는 직업정체성의 유형을 탐색하고자 하였다. 방법 눈덩이표집법에 의해 편의추출된 초등학교 보건교사 15명을 대상으로 근거이론연구방법을 이용하여 심층면담을 통한 자료의 수집과 분석을 반복적이고도 순환적으로 시행하여 개방코딩, 축코딩, 선택코딩, 도형화의 단계를 거쳤다. 결과 연구결과 15개의 범주와 35개의 하위범주, 그리고 120개의 개념이 도출되었고 핵심범주는 '간호를 베풀며 교사로 살아가기'로 나타났다. 초등학교 보건교사의 직업정체성 형성은 '보건교육중시형', '간호-교육 병행형', '간호제공위주형'의 3가지 유형으로 파악되었으며, 참여자별로 한 가지의 유형으로 파악되지 않고, 세 유형이 조금씩 혼합되어 나타났다. 결론 초등학교 보건교사의 명확한 보건업무의 해석이 필요하며, 보건교사를 지지할 수 있는 프로그램의 개발과 지원이 필요하다. 또한 초등학교 보건교사의 직업정체성 형성 과정을 둘러싼 불평등한 제도 개선 즉 성과급제도와 승진 제도에 대해서 심층적 연구가 필요하다.
