Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the application of GLOBE program in Korea and its perception displayed by the Science High school Teachers. The interview using a questionnaire with 12 science high school teachers in Korea was conducted. It was attempted to find a problem occurring during the practical application for getting a basic data for the development of Korean GLOBE program. The results of this study are as follows: (1) The level of GLOBE program was for upper grade levelsin elementary school and middle school. The program may not be suitable for the Science High School students in Korea. (2) To successfully apply the GLOBE program in Korea, study levels and research subjects in the program must be further developed in terms of quality and areas. Suggestions for the possibility of adopting and operating the program in Korea are made as follows: (1) To effectively manage the GLOBE school sites, there has to be a headquarter system in place and operation under, say, the Korean Earth Science Society. (2) To ensure the program's identity and goals, it is to set up a center for the Korea GLOBE program with a financial support system established.
