Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of novelty space among pre-service elementary and secondary earth science teachers. We conducted a survey to explore the perceptions of 38 pre-service elementary school teachers at the National University of Education and 31 pre-service secondary earth science teachers at the Department of Earth Science Education at B University. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 participants, including three pre-service elementary teachers and nine pre-service secondary science teachers. In addition to the elements of novelty space, prior knowledge (cognition), prior outdoor learning experience (psychology), familiarity (geography) with outdoor field learning, and social and technical elements were added. When classified based on elementary and secondary levels, there were statistically significant differences in cognitive, psychological, geographic, and social areas for the elements of novelty space. Statistical differences indicated that the experience or capital related to outdoor learning may have resulted from more pre-service secondary earth science teachers than pre-service elementary teachers. In additional interviews, both elementary and secondary pre-service teachers reported that competencies in the technical domain would be emphasized in the future owing to the necessity and the technical development of virtual-reality-based outdoor field learning programs. This study emphasizes the academic significance of novelty space that should be considered to conduct geological field learning for elementary and secondary earth science pre-service teachers while considering the current post-pandemic educational context.

이 연구는 초등 및 중등 지구과학 예비교사들을 대상으로 생소한 경험 공간(Novelty Space)에 대한 인식 조사를 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 A 교육대학교의 초등 예비교사 38명과 B 대학교 지구과학교육과에 재학 중인 31명의 중등 지구과학 예비교사들이 설문에 참여하였다. 또한 연구 참여자 중 추가적인 면담 참여에 동의한 초등 예비교사 3명과 중등 지구과학 예비교사 9명, 총 12명을 대상으로 비대면 면담을 실시하였다. 생소한 경험 공간에 대한 요소를 사전 지식(인지), 사전야외학습 경험(심리), 야외조사지역과의 친숙도(지리)에 덧붙여, 사회적인(social) 요소과 기술적인(technical) 요소를 추가하였다. 초등과 중등, 학년를 기준으로 분류하였을 때 생소한 경험 공간의 요소에 대해 인지적 영역, 심리적 영역, 지리적 영역, 사회적 영역에서 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 통계적인 차이는 야외학습과 관련된 경험이나 자본이 중등 지구과학 예비교사들이 초등 예비교사들보다 더 많은 것으로부터 비롯되었을지도 모른다고 해석하였다. 반-구조화된 면담에서 초등 예비교사 및 중등 지구과학 예비교사 모두 가상야외지질학습의 가치나 필요성을 강조하였으며 특히 기술적인 영역에서의 역량을 강조하였다. 이 연구는 초등 및 중등 지구과학 예비교사들을 대상으로 야외지질학습을 실행하기 위한 생소한 경험 공간에 대해 현재의 교육 맥락적인 상황을 고려하여 새롭게 정의할 필요성을 제안할 뿐만 아니라 생소한 경험 공간 요소들을 구체화하였다는 점에서 학술적인 의의를 갖는다.
