Abstract

This study aims to apply the problem-based learning method to a college course on 'Consumer Studies' in a teacher education program. The participants of this study were 27 undergraduate students who were enrolled in the course. The PBL class was implemented for seven weeks using two problems: proposing special lectures on economic concepts and financial consulting. The effectiveness of PBL was analyzed through self-reflective journals, self-assessment, and a learning satisfaction survey of students. The result of this study was as follows. Students achieved the learning objectives and strengthened their collaboration and communication skills with team members during the PBL process. Moreover, students improved their self-directed learning and problem-solving ability through the PBL class. The results of self-assessment, in terms of learning task performance, active interaction, and self-directed learning were generally high at 4.63 points. In addition, the overall learning satisfaction level was very high, with a score of 4.75. The results will provide effective information on PBL classes to instructors and prospective teachers and will be used as data for learner-centered PBL classes.

본 연구의 목적은 학습자 중심 교수방법인 문제기반학습(PBL)을 '소비자학' 교과목에 적용하는 것이다. '소비자학'을 수강하는 대학생 27명을 대상으로 경제개념 특강안과 재무컨설팅을 제안하는 2가지 PBL 문제를 개발하고 총 7주간 PBL 수업을 진행하였다. PBL 효과는 학습자들이 작성한 성찰일지, 자기평가지, 수업만족도를 활용하여 분석하였다. 학습자는 문제해결 과정에서 소비자학 교과목의 학습목표를 달성했으며, 팀원과의 협업과 소통 방식을 습득하는 경험을 하였다. 이러한 과정에서 자연스럽게 자기주도적 학습이 이루어졌으며, 문제해결능력이 향상된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 학습자는 학습과제이행, 적극적 상호작용, 자기주도적 학습수행 능력 등 PBL 수업에 임하는 스스로를 평균 4.68로 높이 평가했으며, PBL 수업에 대한 수업만족도도 평균 4.75로 매우 높게 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 교수자 및 예비교원에게 PBL 수업에 대한 유용한 정보로 제공될 것이며, 학습자중심 PBL 수업을 위한 자료로 활용될 것이다.
