Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of university students who were placed under academic probation. A qualitative research design was used to understand the experiences of students. The data were collected using individual in-depth interviews with 4 students who had experiences of low academic achievements at least once during 5 semesters. Low self esteem was the main issue in this study and inner struggles were identified within 4 themes: Outstanding students controlled by helpers; A costume play as a outstanding student; Realize that I am a under academic achiever; Realize who I am and what I have to do. This study identified that low academic achievement brings to low self esteem seriously, however, human being has strong resilience in the traumatic circumstances. Thus, it is absolutely necessary devoting efforts to develop suitable student supporting programs in the way of inner and outer network systems.

본 연구의 목적은 학사경고를 받은 대학생이 학업에 대한 내적 자기 동기화가 이루어지는 과정을 파악해 보고자 함이다. 질적 연구방법 중 내러티브 연구방법을 적용하여 내면적 사고의 흐름을 추적해보고자 하였으며, 심층인터뷰를 통해 수집된 자료는 Burke의 내러티브 분서방법을 통해 분석하였다. 학습 환경이 변화되는 시점인 대학입학 전 후를 기점으로 자아의 변화과정을 4가지 주제로 도출하였다: '만들어진 우수한 아이', '우수한 아이 코스프레', '부족한 자아와의 만남', '독립된 실체와의 만남'. 위의 4가지 주제는 학사경고라는 사건을 극복해 가고자 하는 인간내면에 존재하는 강인한 독립적 탄성이 형성되어가는 과정을 단계적으로 제시해주고 있다. 이를 토대로 대학차원의 학습지원 프로그램의 개발에 있어서 내면적 자기 동기화 능력을 강화시켜줄 수 있는 소프트적인 내용과 기존의 학습지원방법이 병행된 프로그램의 개발이 필요하리라 본다.
