초록

이 연구에서는 과학탐구실험 1단원 '역사 속의 과학 탐구'에서 과학교사들이 실행한 평가 사례와 교육과정에 따라 구성한 전형적인 가상의 상황에서 지향하는 평가 사례를 조사하였다. 서술형 문항으로 구성된 설문지를 개발하여 '역사 속의 과학 탐구'를 가르친 경험이 있는 70명의 과학교사들을 대상으로 설문을 실시하였다. 설문에 참여한 교사 중 8명과 면담을 실시하였다. 교사들이 응답한 평가 사례를 평가 영역과 평가 방법의 측면에서 분석하였고, 평가 실태와 평가 지향의 결과를 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 평가 실태에서 평가 영역은 탐구 능력이 가장 많았고 교육과정에서 제시한 핵심 개념인 '과학의 본성'과 '과학자의 탐구 방법'을 평가한 사례는 적었다. 평가 방법은 보고서에 크게 치우치고 다양한 평가 방법이 활용되지 못했다. 평가 지향에서는 핵심 개념을 평가한 사례가 다소 증가하였으나 절대적인 빈도는 여전히 적은 수준에 머물렀다. 평가 지향의 평가 방법은 측정 방법의 평가가 줄고 수행 방법의 평가가 증가하였고 실태에서는 나타나지 않았던 비형식 방법의 평가가 나타나기도 하였으나 여전히 다양한 평가 방법이 활용되지 못하였다. 면담에 참여한 교사들의 의견을 바탕으로 설문 결과에 대한 원인을 분석하였다. 연구 결과를 바탕으로 과학탐구실험에서 NOS를 적극적으로 할 수 있는 방안을 논의하였다.

In this study, we investigated actual cases of assessment science teachers conducted and the cases they preferred in a typical situation based on the curriculum in the context of 'Scientific Inquiries in the History' of Scientific Inquiry Experiment. A questionnaire composed of descriptive questions was developed and a survey was conducted with 70 science teachers with experience in teaching 'Scientific Inquiries in History'. Interviews were conducted with eight of them. The assessment cases were analyzed in terms of the assessment areas and assessment methods, and the results were compared. The analyses of the results revealed that 'scientific inquiry ability' accounted for the highest ratio of the assessment areas in the actual cases of assessment. There were few cases that assessed the core concepts presented in the curriculum, 'the nature of science' and 'scientists' inquiry methods'. The assessment methods were greatly biased toward the report method and various assessment methods were not used. In preferred cases of assessment, the ratio of cases that assessed the core concept increased slightly, however the frequencies remained at a low. As for the assessment methods in preferred cases of assessment, the measurement methods decreased, the performance methods increased, and the informal methods which were not shown in the actual cases appeared. However various assessment methods were still not used. The causes of the survey results were analyzed based on the opinions of the teachers who participated in the interviews. Based on above results, plans to actively conduct NOS assessments in Scientific Inquiry Experiment are discussed.
