초록

우리나라 교육부는 미래 과학기술 발전을 주도할 창의적이고 융합적 역량을 갖춘 인재 융성을 강조하고 있다. 융합인재교육(STEAM)은 학생들의 과학기술에 대한 흥미와 이해를 높이고 창의적 문제해결능력을 배양하는 데에 목적이 있다. STEAM R&E는 실생활과 관련된 융합 문제를 해결하기 위해 학생이 자기 주도적으로 연구 설계를 함으로써 미래 인재 역량을 함양하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구에서는 STEAM R&E 프로젝트를 수행한 뒤 고등학생의 창의적 인재 역량이 변화하였는지를 탐색하였다. 창의적 인재 역량 검사는 인지적, 정의적, 사회적 영역으로 구성되며, 검사지는 각 영역별로 해당 요소를 측정하는 리커트 스케일 문항으로 측정하였다. 이에 2016 STEAM R&E에 참여한 고등학생을 대상으로 사전-사후 창의적 인재 역량 변화를 정량적으로 살펴보았고, 과학고등학교와 영재학교, 과학중점학교, 일반계 고등학교 간의 변화 차이를 비교해보았다. 연구 결과, STEAM R&E 프로젝트를 통해 전체 학생의 창의적 인재 역량이 세가지 영역 모두 향상하였음을 알 수 있었다. 과학고등학교와 영재학교 학생들은 사전-사후검사 결과에서 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 과학중점학교와 일반계 고등학교 학생의 창의적 인재 역량이 유의미하게 향상하였다. 연구 결과를 통해 STEAM R&E 활동이 일반고와 과학중점학교 학생들의 창의적 인재 역량의 함양이 효과를 나타낼 수 있는 것으로 볼 수 있었으며, 학생들의 창의적 인재 역량이 어떻게 성장할 수 있는지에 대한 질적 탐구가 후속연구로 진행되어야 함을 제언하였다.

The Korean Ministry of Education has emphasized human resource development with creative and convergent ability for future science and technology development. Korean STEAM Education aims to enhance students' interest and their understanding of science and technology as well as to develop students' creative problem-solving skills. Through STEAM R&E project, students experience self-directed research in order to solve the problem in the context of everyday life. In this study, we aim to find out whether the creative leader competency of high school students changed after they experienced the STEAM R&E project. The creative leader competency consisted of three domains: cognitive, affective, and societal domain. We measured the creative leader competency using the questionnaire scales. The questionnaire was administered to 612 high school students who participated in the 2016 STEAM R&E project. Pre- and post- test scores were collected, and we analyzed it. We compared the mean difference between pre- and post- test scores as well as the mean differences among science high school, gifted school, science core school, and general high school. From the result, we found that all student' creative leader competency improved after participating in the STEAM R&E project in all three domains. The result also showed that students' test scores of science high school and gifted school showed no significant mean differences, while student's scores of both science core school and general high school improved significantly. From the results, we concluded that STEAM R&E activities could be an effective tool in cultivating creative leader competency, especially for general high school students and science core school students. We also suggested that further researches are needed to find how we could enhance students' creative leader competency.
