Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a teaching and learning plan for parental understanding classes for middle school students and to investigate the effect of the classes on the parent-child relationship by implementing the class. The classes were conducted from July 5 to July 15, 2021, for the second graders of S middle school in Gwangju Metropolitan City, in a total of 6 sessions, i.e., 3 sessions per week for 2 weeks. The influence of classes on parent-child relationship was measured in terms of the understanding of the middle age, degrees of interaction, affection, and bond with parents. In order to analyze the impact of classes, pre- and post-class online surveys were conducted on 184 students who agreed to participate. For the collected quantitative data, descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, and pairwise t-tests were performed using the SPSS Ver 22.0 statistical program. According to the results, students' understanding of the developmental characteristics of middle age increased and the interaction between the students and their parents increased after the class. And the overall affection with the mother increased significantly. Also, students' bonds with both mother and father were significantly improved. Based on these results, the necessity and direction of home economics class were discussed to form a positive relationship between adolescent children and their parents.

본 연구는 중학생의 부모 이해 향상을 위해 교수·학습과정안을 개발하고 수업에 적용하여 부모 이해 수업이 중학생의 부모-자녀 관계에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 데 목적이 있다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 2021년 7월 5일부터 7월 15일까지 광주광역시에 있는 S 중학교 2학년 학생을 대상으로 기술·가정 수업 시간에 주당 3시간씩 2주 동안 총 6차시에 걸쳐 부모 이해 수업을 시행하였다. 수업이 부모-자녀 관계에 미치는 영향은 중년 부모에 대한 이해, 부모와의 상호작용 정도, 부모와의 애정도 및 유대감으로 측정하였다. 수업의 영향을 분석하기 위해 본 연구에 동의한 184명의 학생을 대상으로 사전·사후 온라인 설문 조사를 진행하였다. 수집된 양적 자료는 SPSS Ver 22.0 통계 프로그램을 사용하여 기술 통계, 신뢰도 분석, 대응 표본 t-test를 실시하였다. 분석 결과 중년기 부모 이해 수업 이후 중년기 발달 특성에 대한 자녀들의 이해도가 증가하였고 청소년기 자녀와 부모 간 상호작용 정도도 증가하였다. 그리고 어머니에 대한 전반적인 애정도가 유의미하게 증가하였다. 또한 어머니, 아버지와의 전반적 유대감이 모두 유의미하게 향상되었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 청소년기 자녀를 둔 가족의 긍정적인 부모-자녀 관계를 위해서는 기술·가정 교과의 가족 단원에 자녀가 부모를 이해할 수 있는 수업이 필요함을 알 수 있다.
