Abstract

As the importance of ICT use in education grows, this study analyzes the differences and characteristics of perceptions of educational fields and industries on the use of Edutech, and proposes policy suggestions for revitalizing Edutech by deriving requirements. Accordingly, a survey was conducted on 201 teachers and 100 companies, and IPA analysis, Borich's needs, basic statistics, and t-test were conducted to find out the necessity and utilization of Edutech. As a result, they were highly aware of the need for the use of Edutech, and perceived that the support or accessibility for Edutech was insufficient. Accordingly, direct exchange between on-site teachers and companies from the product development stage to utilization and follow-up management, professional support for the introduction of Edutech, simplification of the purchase process and deregulation, customized support and training programs according to the characteristics of teachers are required. In the future, it is necessary to consider the changes in education that will occur after COVID-19 and establish appropriate product development and spread strategies.

본 연구는 교육에서의 ICT 활용의 중요성이 커짐에 따라 에듀테크 활용에 대한 교육현장과 산업체의 인식의 차이 및 특징을 분석하고, 요구사항을 도출함으로써 에듀테크 활성화를 위한 정책적 제언을 제시하고자 한다. 이에, 교사 201명과 100개 기업체를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여, 에듀테크 활용에 대한 필요도와 활용도를 알아보기 위한 IPA 분석과 Borich 요구도, 기초통계, t검증을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 에듀테크 활용의 필요도에 대해 높게 인식하고 있었으며, 에듀테크를 위한 지원이나 접근성이 부족한 것으로 인식하고 있었다. 이에, 제품 개발단계부터 활용, 사후관리에 이르기까지 현장 교사와 기업의 직접적인 교류, 에듀테크 도입을 위한 전문적 지원, 구매 프로세스 간소화 및 관련 규제 완화, 교사 특성에 따른 맞춤형 지원 및 연수 프로그램이 요구된다. 향후, 코로나-19 이후에 나타날 교육 변화를 고찰하여 알맞은 제품 개발과 활용 확산 전략이 수립되어야 할 것이다.
