Abstract

This study aims to investigate the essential meaning of college life based on understanding the lived experiences while participating in the extracurricular programs. This study was designed according to Giorgi's phenomenological research method to comprehend and grasp the meaning of the essential experience of each individual. Data collection for this study was conducted by a semi-structured in-depth interview with 6 participants who had engaged in the extracurricular program delivered by the department of Aviation Services. This study suggests that the experiential attributes of engaging in extracurricular classes and the meaning of involving extracurricular activities were derived into four themes each. The finding discovers that the meaning of college life including, 'improve in satisfaction of college life', 'various college life', 'memories of college life', and 'motivation for college life'. The conclusion to be drawn here is that the experience of participating in various extracurricular programs was shown to be a path of transitional process of personal growth. The significance of this study is that it revealed the extracurricular activities added a new meaning to their college life based on the interviewee's lived experience.

본 연구의 목적은 비교과프로그램을 참여하면서 겪은 실제 경험에 대한 이해를 토대로 대학 생활 경험의 본질적 의미를 고찰하는 것이다. 개인이 겪은 본질적 경험에 대해 이해하고 의미를 규명하기 위해 Giorgi의 현상학적 연구방법에 따라 연구를 설계하였다. 본 연구는 항공서비스학과에서 운영하는 비교과프로그램에 참여한 경험이 있는 참여자 6명을 대상으로 반구조화된 심층 인터뷰 기법을 적용하였다. 수집된 자료를 분석한 결과 비교과 참여의 경험적 특성과 비교과 참여의 의미는 각각 4가지 주제로 도출되었다. 대학생활의 의미는 '대학 생활 만족도 향상', '다양한 대학생활', '대학생활의 추억', '대학생활에 대한 동기부여'의 의미를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과 다양한 비교과프로그램 참여 경험은 한 개인이 성장해 가는 전이과정으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 비교과 활동이 대학생활에 새로운 의미를 부여하였다는 것을 참여자의 실제 경험을 바탕으로 규명했다는 점에서 의의를 갖는다.
