Abstract

The purpose of this study is to explore inductively learning effects of virtual field trips(VFTs) programs developed by elementary school students under the theme of minerals and rocks, focusing on learning in virtual geological components. Ten students attending 'H' elementary school in the metropolitan area voluntarily participated. In order to develop a virtual field trips programs, pre-actual outdoor geological field trips were conducted and virtual field trips programs were developed. In this process, written data of students observing, all video recording and voice recording materials of the course in which students participated, VR development data, and post-interview data were collected. Data were inductively analyzed focusing on four areas(cognitive, psychological, geography, and technical components) of learning in virtual geological field trips. As a result, there were positive learning effects for students in four areas. This study revealed that the study participants were not just participants in virtual learning, but rather developed classes for virtual field trips programs, which had significant results in terms of authentic inquiry.

이 연구의 목적은 광물과 암석을 주제로 초등학생들이 가상 야외지질답사 모듈 개발에 직접 참여함으로써 관찰되는 학생들의 학습 효과를 귀납적으로 탐색하는 것이다. 수도권 소재 'H' 초등학교에 재학 중인 10명의 학생들이 본 연구에 참여하였다. 학생들은 가상 야외지질답사 모듈 개발을 위해 사전에 실제로 야외지질답사를 실행하고 가상 야외지질답사 모듈을 개발하였다. 이 과정에서 학생들이 작성한 서면 자료와 비디오 녹화 영상, 음성 자료, 그리고 모든 연구가 종료된 이후 진행된 면담 자료를 수집하였다. 가상 야외지질학습의 구성 요소 중 네 가지 영역(인지, 심리, 지리, 기술)을 중심으로 연구 참여자들의 학습 효과를 분석하였다. 그 결과 가상 야외지질학습의 네 가지 요소, 인지, 지리, 심리, 기술 영역에서 긍정적인 학습 효과를 확인하였다. 이 연구는 연구 참여자들이 가상 야외지질학습에 단순 참여자가 아니라 가상 야외지질답사 모듈 수업 개발자로서 참탐구의 측면에서 지질학 학습에 유의미한 결과가 있음을 밝혔다.
