Abstract

This research aims to find directions for character education in science education and to analyze Nature-Study theoretically as one of the ways to implement character education in science education. In order to accomplish this, references for character education were collected and analyzed to derive the directions for character education in science education, and then the results were verified by expert workshops composed of 2 science education experts and 4 PhD students. Through the consideration of references for Nature-Study in terms of character education, we supposed to confirm that Nature-Study is an efficient way to implement character education in science education. The research resulted in the following: First, science education should establish it's own role in character education by expanding the domains of value and realizing practice-centered character education. Accordingly, 'Expanded model of character education (The domains of the value)' was developed on the basis of 'formation of relationships' with 'nature & environment, spiritual object' and 'The practice-centered character manifested mechanism' empathized 'formation of relationships' and 'practice' was also diagramed. Second, Nature-Study empathized 'Science Education through Nature' can be one of the efficient ways to implement character education in science education. Nature-Study corresponds with the directions of character education in science education because Nature-Study aims for character education in it's educational purpose and emphasizes 'formation of relationships' with 'nature & environment' and 'practice' in the real world. In conclusion, science education should establish it's own role in character education by expanding the domains of value and realizing the practice-centered character education and Nature-Study is efficient ways to implement character education in science education.

이 연구에서는 과학교육에서 추구해야 할 인성교육의 방향을 모색하고 과학교육에서 인성교육을 구현할 수 있는 방법으로 Nature-Study 사상을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 인성교육 관련 문헌을 수집 분석하고 과학교육에서 추구해야 할 인성교육의 방향을 도출하였으며 과학교육 전문가 2인과 과학교육을 전공하는 박사과정생 4인으로 구성된 전문가 워크숍을 통해서 검증하였다. 또 Nature-Study가 과학교육에서 인성교육을 구현할 수 있는 방안인지 문헌을 통해 이론적으로 고찰하였다. 그 결과 과학교육에서 추구해야 할 인성교육의 방향은 첫째, 인성의 가치 영역 확장을 통해 인성교육에서 과학교육의 역할을 확립하고, 둘째, 실천 중심의 인성교육을 실현해야 한다는 것이다. 이를 '확장된 인성의 가치 영역 모델'과 '실천 중심의 인성 발현 메커니즘'으로 구체화하였다. '확장된 인성의 가치 영역 모델'은 지금까지 '자신, 주변인, 대중'이 중심이었던 '관계맺음'의 대상을 '생명과 환경, 영적대상'으로까지 확대한 것이고, '실천 중심의 인성 발현 메커니즘'은 '가치-판단-실행'의 인성 발현 과정에서 '관계맺음, 실제 상황, 실천 의지'의 단계 이행 매개와 '공감'을 강조한 것이다. 이를 바탕으로 과학교육에서 인성교육을 구현할 수 있는 방안으로 '자연을 통한 과학학습'을 강조하는 Nature-Study를 제시하였다. Nature-Study는 교육 목적에도 인성교육의 요소가 나타날 정도로 인성이 강조되었던 과학교육 방법이었을 뿐만 아니라 자연과의 관계맺음과 실천을 강조한다는 점에서 이 연구에서 도출한 과학교육에서 추구해야 할 인성교육의 방향과도 일치한다. 결론적으로 과학교육은 인성의 가치 영역 확장을 통해 인성교육에서의 역할을 확립하고 실천 중심의 인성교육을 실현해야 하며 이를 실제로 구현하기 위한 과학교육의 방법은 '자연을 통한 과학학습'을 실현하는 Nature-Study이 된다. 따라서 Nature-Study는 학교 과학교육에서 인성교육을 실행하는 방안으로 활용될 수 있다.
