초록

이 연구는 초·중등 학생의 극지 소양 함양을 위해 개발된 극지 소양 교육 프로그램을 적용한 효과를 평가하고, 기후 변화 대응 교육을 위한 시사점을 도출하기 위해 수행되었다. Polar-ICE 단체가 정립한 7가지 극지 소양 원리를 중심으로 개발한 모듈식 프로그램 중 과학개념을 강조한 프로그램과 인문학과 사회학적 쟁점을 강조한 프로그램 등 두 과정에 적합한 세부 프로그램을 선정해서 구조화했다. 이들 두 가지 프로그램은 서울 소재 대학 과학교육과에서 주최한 토요 과학교실에서 초등학생과 중학생 26명에게 약 69시간에 걸쳐 적용되었다. 26명의 학생을 세 집단으로 나누어 두 집단에게는 각각 극지 소양을 위한 과학 교육 프로그램과 인문 사회학적 쟁점 교육 프로그램을 실시했고, 나머지 한 집단은 극지 소양과 관련 없는 일반 과학 교육을 적용하여 대조군이 되었다. 프로그램을 적용하기 전후에 세 집단의 학생들은 모두 동일하게 극지 소양 검사와 극지에 대한 연상 단어와 장면을 진술하는 설문에 응답했다. 검사 결과는 비모수검정 방법인 Wilcoxon의 대응쌍 부호순위로 나타내어 프로그램 적용 전후의 향상도를 비교했다. 연구 결과 인지적 측면에서 실험군과 대조군 모두 지식 측면에서 프로그램 적용 후 향상이 나타났으나 실험군이 대조군 보다 향상의 정도가 더 컸으며, 명시적으로 다룬 내용이나 소재에서 특히 분명한 차이를 나타냈다. 정의적 측면에서 프로그램 전후의 차이는 그다지 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았지만, 인문 사회학적 쟁점을 다루었던 집단은 통계적으로 유의미한 향상을 보였다. 극지 심상의 변화는 실험 집단인 두 집단이 대조 집단에 비해 단조로운 이미지에서 좀 더 다양한 이미지로 분산되는 경향이 보였다. 이상의 연구 결과를 바탕으로 극지 소양 원리 과학 교육 프로그램의 효과를 높이기 위해 유의할 점, 과학적 사고를 함양하고 지구계 교육에 도움이 되는 소재로 활용할 필요성, 극지에 대한 태도를 향상하기 위한 방안, 기후 위기 대응을 준비하는 학교 교육 과정과의 연계 등의 시사점을 제안했다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a polar literacy education program for elementary and middle school students, and to derive implications for new education to respond to climate change. We developed modular education programs based on the seven principles of polar literacy established by the Polar-ICE team. We divided them into two courses, one emphasizing science concepts and another emphasizing humanities and sociological issues. We then selected and structured detailed programs suitable for the two courses. These two courses were applied to 26 elementary and middle school students for approximately 69 hours in a Saturday science class hosted by the Department of Science Education at a university in Seoul. The 26 students were divided into three groups. Two groups completed the science education program for polar literacy and a humanities and social studies education program for polar literacy, respectively. The third group, the control group, received general science education unrelated to polar literacy. Before and after running the programs, all three groups responded to a polar literacy test and questionnaires that used vocabulary and presented scenes associated with polar regions. The test results were expressed using Wilcoxon signed ranks, which is a non-parametric test method, and improvements made upon completion of the program were analyzed. From a cognitive aspect, all three groups showed improvement after completing the program in the knowledge area; however, the experimental groups showed a greater degree of improvement than the control group, and there was a clear difference in the contents or materials explicitly covered. From an affective aspect, the difference between before and after the program was minor, but the group that focused on humanities and social issues showed a statistically significant improvement. Regarding changes in polar imagery, the two experimental groups tended to diverge from monotonous images to more diverse images compared to the control group. Based on the above results, we suggested methods to increase the effectiveness of polar literacy education programs, the importance of polar literacy as appropriate material for scientific thinking and earth system education, measures to improve attitudes related to the polar region, and the need to link to school curriculums.
