Abstract

In this study, the Delphi Method was conducted to extract variables as effects of integrated education. Forty-six experts engaged in both the integrated education and research fields participated in this study. The Delphi survey was conducted for three rounds. In the first round, an open questionnaire was given asking variables possibly considered as effects of integrated education. In the second round, variables induced from analysis of the first survey results were given and the degree of agreement for each variable was determined according to the Likert scale. In the third round of the survey, mean, standard deviation, and the first and third quartile calculated using the results of the second survey were given to experts to determine their degree of assent. In addition, categories for variables were suggested. The degree of agreement for appropriateness of categorization and relative importance were determined As a result, a total of 18 variables were chosen except for career awareness. They were categorized according to their definition and properties into five categories: 'creativity' (flexible thinking, associative thinking, intuitive thinking, creative thinking), 'problem solving' (meta-cognition, problem recognition and solving, critical thinking, decision making ability, ability of knowledge application, knowledge and information processing skills), 'integrative perception and sensitivity' (concern and interest in various disciplines, understanding and acceptance of difference, integrative thinking), 'interpersonal relations' (communication skills, cooperation), and 'disciplinary literacy' (humanistic imagination, basic knowledge and literacy of each discipline, academic motivation). The degree of agreement was high in variables included in 'creativity' and 'problem solving' categories and the frequency of choosing the importance was high in variables included in 'integrative perception and sensitivity'. The educational implication related to implementation and practice of integrated education were discussed on the basis of results.

본 연구에서는 통합교육을 통해 성취할 수 있는 효과변인을 추출하기 위하여 통합교육 교육과 연구 전문가 46명을 대상으로 델파이 연구를 진행하였다. 델파이 조사는 3차에 걸쳐 진행하였다. 1차 설문은 통합교육을 통해 성취해야 하는 능력에 대한 개방형 문항으로 구성하였으며, 2차 설문에서는 1차 설문 결과의 분석을 통해 추출된 효과변인에 대한 동의정도를 응답하도록 하였다. 3차 설문에서는 2차 설문결과로부터 얻은 효과변인의 평균, 표준편차 및 사분위수 값을 제시한 후 다시 동의정도를 응답하도록 하여 전문가들의 의견을 수렴하였다. 3차 설문에서는 범주 타당도와 가장 중요하다고 생각하는 상위 다섯 개 변인을 선정하는 문항을 추가하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 1차 설문의 응답결과를 분석하여 총 19개의 효과변인을 추출하였다. 2차 설문의 분석 결과, 1차 설문에서 얻은 효과변인들 중 1개(진로의식)를 제외한 18개 변인이 기준에 부합하여 이들을 최종 변인으로 확정하였고, 각 변인의 의미와 속성에 기초하여 다섯 가지로 범주화하였다. '창의성 관련 변인'으로 사고의 유연성, 연관적 사고력, 직관적 사고력, 창의적 사고력, '문제해결 관련 변인'으로 메타인지능력, 문제인식 및 해결방안 도출, 비판적 사고력, 의사결정능력, 적용력, 지식정보처리능력, '통합인지와 감성 관련 변인'으로 여러 교과에 대한 관심과 흥미, (학문/의견/문화/개인/사회 등의)차이에 대한 이해와 수용, 통합적 사고력, '대인관계 관련 변인'으로 의사소통능력, 협동성, '학문적 소양 관련 변인'으로 인문학적 상상력, 기초학문지식과 소양, 학습동기를 분류하였다. 동의정도가 높게 나타난 변인은 '창의성과 문제해결 관련 변인'에 해당하였으며 중요도에 대한 선택 빈도가 높게 나타난 변인은 '통합인지와 감성 관련 변인'에 해당하는 것으로 나타났다. 연구 결과를 토대로 통합교육의 실행과 평가와 관련된 교육적 시사점을 논의하였다.
