초록

본 연구에서는 융합교육 컨설턴트(STEAM education consultant, SEC)를 대상으로 융합교육 컨설팅이 실제 성과를 내기 위해 필요한 요소와 융합교육 컨설팅의 개선점에 대한 인식을 알아보았다. 이전에 SEC를 한 경험이 있거나 융합교육 관련 경험이 풍부한 교사들을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였다. 먼저 융합교육 컨설팅의 성과를 위한 요소와 개선점에 대해 개방형 설문을 진행하고, 자유 응답의 내용을 분석하여 항목을 구성한 다음, 각 항목에 대해 얼마나 동의하는지 리커트 척도 상에서 응답하게 하여 통계 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 SEC는 융합교육 컨설팅이 실제 성과를 내기 위해서 "컨설턴트와 담당 교원의 공감대 형성", "이전 컨설팅 결과 반영에 대한 컨설턴트의 피드백"과 "담당 교원에 대한 격려와 지지"가 가장 필요하다고 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 융합교육 컨설팅의 개선점으로는 "컨설턴트들 간의 사례 및 의견 공유", "컨설팅 모범 사례 선정 및 공유", "공개수업 등 다양한 컨설팅 형태 개발"이 가장 높은 동의를 얻었다. 이 결과를 기반으로 STEAM 컨설팅의 효과성을 높일 수 있는 지원 방안에 대해 제안하였다.

In this study, we investigated the perception of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) education consultants (SEC) about the requirements to achieve actual results and the improvements for STEAM education consulting. Data were collected from teachers who have had previous SEC experience or have extensive experience in STEAM education. First, an open-ended questionnaire was used to conduct a survey on the requirements and improvements for the STEAM education consulting, and items were composed by analyzing the contents of these free responses, and then statistical analysis was performed by asking them to respond on the Likert scale to how much they agreed to each item. As a result of the analysis, the SEC recognized that "formation of consensus between consultants and teachers", "consultant feedback on reflection of previous consulting results" and "encouragement and support for teachers" are appeared to be the most required for STEAM education consulting to achieve actual results. As the improvements of STEAM education consulting, "sharing cases and opinions among consultants", "selection and sharing of consulting best practices", and "development of various consulting types such as open classes" received the highest agreement. Based on these results, a support plan to increase the effectiveness of STEAM consulting was proposed.
