Abstract

It is critical for adolescents to foster self-efficacy, creativity, and adventurous spirit as well as plans for appropriate career path in order to become good members of society. During this adolescent period, newspapers will be a good learning material as they deliver various and timely information in refined language. In this paper, we analyzed the impact of NIE on development of self-efficacy, awareness of career path, and entrepreneurship through comparing adolescents who regularly read newspapers with those who do not. We came up with the following result after analysis of surveys (with a sample size of 283) that targeted middle school and higher grade elementary school students across Korea. We confirmed that reading newspapers has a positive impact on development of self-efficacy, awareness of career path, and entrepreneurship. More specifically, reading newspapers regularly has a positive impact on development of self-efficacy that subsequently has a positive impact on development of awareness of career path and entrepreneurship. Therefore, we found that simply reading newspapers regularly has a positive impact on development of self-efficacy, awareness of career path, and entrepreneurship with no special programs utilizing the newspapers. This is because various information and opinions in newspapers help adolescents to develop their own views, improve understanding and awareness of career, and development of sociality including creativity and adventurous spirit. There is the meaning as the first research that this research checks what the NIE of the adolescents affects the positive impact to not only the self-efficacy and career awareness but also entrepreneurship.

청소년들이 바람직한 사회인으로 성장할 수 있도록 자기효능감을 함양하고 자신에게 적합한 진로를 준비하며 창의성과 모험심을 갖추는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이런 시기에 다양하고 생생한 정보를 문자로 정제하여 전달하는 신문은 좋은 교재가 될 것이다. 본 논문에서는 청소년들의 신문구독여부로 확인한 'NIE(Newspaper In Education)의 수행여부'가 자기효능감 및 진로인식, 기업가정신의 함양에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 전국의 초등학교 고학년 및 중학생을 대상으로 한 283건의 설문조사를 통한 실증분석결과 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. 청소년들의 신문구독은 자기효능감, 진로인식, 기업가정신에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 신문의 지속적인 구독은 자기효능감에 정(+)의 영향을 미치며, 이러한 자기효능감은 진로인식과 기업가정신에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이로서 신문을 활용한 특별한 프로그램을 실시하지 않더라도 신문을 구독하는 것만으로 자기효능감, 진로인식, 기업가정신의 함양에 도움이 됨을 알 수 있다. 이는 신문구독과정에서 접하는 많은 정보와 다양한 의견들이 청소년의 주관 형성에 도움이 되고, 직업에 대한 이해와 관심을 제고시키며, 창의 및 도전정신을 포함한 사회성의 발전에 기여하는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 본 연구는 청소년들의 신문활용교육이 자기효능감과 진로인식 뿐만 아니라 기업가정신에도 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 확인한 최초의 연구로서 의미가 있다.
