Abstract

In this research, two careers connectable with the contents of the curriculum of fifth to sixth grade elementary school students were selected among other promising future careers in biotechnology and medical engineering fields. 'Design-based promising future career STEAM program' was developed and its validity and effectiveness were verified. Reflecting recent issues, and complying with the STEAM standard (frame) instructional materials were developed through group deliberations for nine months, based on the achievement standards through an analysis of subject curriculum revised in 2009. This was prepared so that students are able to experience biotechnology and medical engineering related careers in a simulational form emphasized with creative design to make them prefer natural sciences and engineering careers and draw their interests and recognition of the relevant careers under the two disciplines. As a result of such application to STEAM Leader School students at the verification stage of the program, the contents and level of the program were verified suitable, receiving favorable reviews. And as a result of applying the developed program on other elementary school students, it was discovered that significant improvements were found in their career consciousness. Through this research, it was suggested that there is a need for a simplification of the curriculum content standards, a provision of 'standard for integration,' development of teachers' ability in reconstituting or organizing the STEAM and proceeding classes, continuous long-term support to see the effects of a policy or a program, and a reinforcement of career education integrated in the curriculum.

본 연구는 생명 의공학 관련 분야의 미래사회 유망직업 가운데 초등학교 5~6학년의 교과 내용과 연계가 가능한 직업들을 선정, '설계기반 미래 유망직업 STEAM 프로그램'을 개발하고 그 타당성과 효과성을 확인한 것이다. 각 프로그램은 2009 개정 교과교육과정 분석을 통해 교과별로 통합이 가능한 성취기준들을 추출한 후, 과학 기술 공학의 최신 이슈를 포함하고 STEAM 준거(틀)에 따라 집단 숙의를 거쳐 9개월간 개발되었다. 또한 생명 의공학 관련 직업을 창의적 설계가 강조된 모의적인 형태로 진로를 체험하게 함으로써, 학생들이 이공계 진로를 탐색하고 관련 진로에 대한 인식과 흥미를 이끌어 낼 수 있도록 하였다. 프로그램의 검증 단계에서 STEAM 리더 스쿨에 적용한 결과, 프로그램의 내용과 수준이 적합하고, 이공계 관련 직업에 대해 모의적인 경험을 함으로써 학생들의 진로에 대한 관심을 끌어낼 수 있었다는 긍정적인 평가를 받았다. 또한 현장적용 과정을 통해 자료의 완성도를 높일 수 있었다. 최종 개발된 STEAM 프로그램을 다른 학교의 일반 학급에 투입한 결과, 초등학생들의 이공계 진로의식이 통계적으로 유의하게 향상되었다는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 기존의 과학 수업에 비해 STEAM 프로그램 적용 수업에 대한 학생 만족도가 상당히 높다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 교과교육과정 내용 기준이 더욱 핵심적인 지식 및 아이디어를 중심으로 대강화될 필요성, 교육과정 재구성의 편리성을 높일 수 있도록 '통합을 위한 기준'의 제공, STEAM 프로그램을 재구성 또는 조직하고 수업을 할 수 있는 교사의 능력 개발, STEAM과 같은 정책이나 프로그램의 효과를 얻기 위해 장기간의 지속적인 지원의 필요성, 교과내에 통합된 진로교육의 강화등이 필요하다는 제언을 하였다.
