Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest the necessity of fostering empathy through design education since elementary education in order to develop human resources required in the artificial intelligence society. First we studied the definition, necessity and the present domestic state of design education. Also studied the elements of empathy, its necessity in the age of artificial intelligence, and how children can enhance empathy. Finally, we researched cases of design and empathy education abroad. In conclusion, the Nordic countries have developed social innovations through design and high levels of empathy. Also, design education in the form of playing with the process of communication, discussion and cooperation is important. Based on this study, we hope various design education programs develop that can foster empathy.

본 연구는 인공지능 시대 사회에서 요구하는 인재 양성을 위해 초등교육 때부터 디자인 교육을 통한 공감능력 함양의 필요성을 제시하는 데 목적이 있다. 문헌조사를 통해 디자인 교육의 정의, 필요성 그리고 국내 디자인 교육 현황을 알아보고, 공감능력의 구성요소, 인공지능 시대에서의 그 필요성 그리고 어린이들이 공감능력을 키울 수 있는 방법을 고찰하였다. 마지막으로 해외 디자인 및 공감능력 교육 사례를 조사하였다. 결론적으로 사례 분석을 통해 북유럽 국가들은 디자인으로 사회 혁신을 이루고 높은 수준의 공감능력을 갖게 되었음을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 놀이의 형태로 소통, 토론, 협동하는 과정의 디자인 교육이 초등교육을 받는 어린이들이 공감능력을 함양하는데 중요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 빠르게 변화하고 있는 시대의 인재 양성을 위해 해외 사례처럼 공감능력을 키울 수 있는 다양한 디자인 교육 프로그램이 개발되길 기대한다.
