The purpose of this study was to develop curriculum of the elementary, and secondary school home economics that integrates three systems of action and to prepare a plan for convergence education in home economics curriculum. To achieve this goal, the characteristics of elementary, secondary school dietary curriculum integrating three systems of action, the focus of development, core competencies, and goals were derived through the review of literature. In this study, we set up perennial and sub-practical problems and selected content elements. The contents system of the developed curriculum was modified and supplemented by examining the validity of experts, and the achievement standard of the middle school home economics dietary education curriculum was developed by integrating the three systems of action. The content system of the elementary, and secondary school home economics curriculum that integrated the three systems of action is centered on practical problems, and the perennial problem is 'What should we do to practice healthy dietary life?' There are five areas of this curriculum: 'health and diet', 'food planning', 'food purchase and management', 'cooking', and 'meal', and the scope of curriculum is repeatedly expanded to 'personal and family', and 'social'. The practical problems in the five areas are composed of 10 practical problems in the two dimensions (personal & family, and society), and the practical problems and contents elements are spiralled by applying the principle of integration. The contents of this curriculum were compared with the achievement standards and learning elements of the dietary life in the 2015 elementary school practical arts, middle and high school 'technology & home economics', and the 'home economics science' curriculum. The results showed that the developed curriculum encompassed additional content beyond all the content already included in the 2015 revised curriculum.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the core content of consumer area from 1st to 2009 revised middle school Home Economics textbooks with the aim of proposing guidelines. An in-depth content analysis was conducted twenty two Home Economics textbooks that have been used in middle schools, beginning with the first curriculum until the revised 2009 curriculum with word cloud. The major findings of this study were as follows; First, the first period of the textbooks emphasized thrift-related concepts such as budgeting and saving money. The second and third period in Home Economics textbooks focused on household work and resource management. From fifth period, the content of textbooks were emphasized learning how to find relevant information and making rational decisions as a consumer. The 2007 revised and 2009 revised period in Home Economics have focused on rational decision-making by adolescents, while taking into account environmental considerations. The content of textbooks now introduces students to the notions of ethical consumerism and eco-friendly consumption across domains such as clothing, food, and housing. The curriculum and content of textbooks in Home Economics should emphasize the concepts related to ethical consumption.

In subject matter, intellectual and learning capacities are emphasized; where as in inter-disciplinary or trans-disciplinary areas promoting character and competencies are focused. Second, ideal portraits of human being through home economics education is not closely related with those in a national curriculum.

제7차 국민공통기본 교육과정에서는 교육내용 조직이나 수준별 교육과정의 편성에 있어서 연속성의 보장을 제도화할 수 있다는 특징을 지니고 있다. 다시 말해 학교급별에 따라 교과의 명칭만 다를 뿐 교과의 성격, 목표, 지도내용 등에서 체계적으로 편성되었다는 특징을 지니고 있다. 그러나 이러한 취지와는 달리 교육과정 구성에 있어서는 다르게 조직되었다. 특히 의생활 교육내용의 경우 일부 학년에 국한되어 제시되고 있거나, 내용구조도 체계화되어 있지 않다. 이것은 7차 교육과정에서도 의생활 교육내용이 체계적으로 편성되지 않았다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 본 연구는 제7차 교육과정에 따라 집필된 초$\cdot$중$\cdot$고등학교 교과서를 중심으로 의생활 교육내용의 체계에 관하여 연구하고자 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 앞으로 가정과 교육과정에서 의생활 교육내용의 조직과 선정에 기초자료를 제공하는데 목적을 둔다. 교과서 분석에는 체계적 내용분석(systematic content analysis) 방법을 채택하였다. 체계적 내용분석은 교육내용의 임의적 서술을 체계적으로 정리하는 것을 의미한다. 의생활 교육이 그 가치와 위치를 정립하려면 그 분야만이 가지는 독특한 영역이 있어야 하는데 이는 체계적인 이론을 통해서만 드러낸다. 체계적인 이론은 우리가 교육현상을 바르게 지각하고 이해하며 그 실체를 볼 수 있게 하는 틀을 마련해 준다는 의미에서 이 방법을 채택하였다.

This study was motivated by the fact that the educational curriculum needs revising as the contemporary society undergoes dramatic changes; this change demonstrates that Korea society now turns into a multicultural community. In this vein, this study aims to examine how the national Home economics curriculum (revised in 2007) incorporated the essence of multicultural education program and that of international understanding program into the coursebook, and to suggest which part of the coursebook needs revising to enhance its validity. To attain this goal, this research was conducted to analyze how two programs are implemented in secondary school, and to propose how those programs should be developed to address the immediate needs of the current society. To illustrate, this study examines a variety of theories and methodology on how multicultural education program should be implemented along with the current situation of Korea society. In addition, quantitative research was conducted to acquire empirical data from 6 coursebooks the frequencies of statements and visual aids that are considered to be directly reflect the essence of two programs. The results demonstrate that two programs are relegated into a lesser position compared to other programs; furthermore, they lack materials to deepen students' understanding about multicultural society and international relations. Therefore, the considerable revision needs to be conducted to embrace the essence of multicultural society and international understanding programs, and sensitize students to the immediate needs of the current society.

For this purpose, this study established the concept of ethical consumption through an academic review of the concept of ethical consumption first. Ethical consumption is to the practice of consumption that fulfills personal and social responsibilities to change human life happily. In this study, we find out how the consumer life area in the HEE curriculum has been educated and we propose how to teach the content of ethical consumption in HEE curriculum by critically examining the content of ethical consumption presented in current HEE textbooks First, in the HEE curriculum, the contents of the consumer life field have been presented since the first curriculum, and the qualitative change has gradually been made as the concept of the consumer culture, but responsible consumption and ethical consumption are not properly reflected in the education and the summit. Second, the revised HEE textbooks of 2015 is necessary to present concrete method of ethical consumption practice because it lacks definite definition of ethical consumption and presents only general contents. Third, the direction of HEE curriculum for ethical consumption practice is responsible and the goal of HEE curriculum is to raise awareness of social responsibility for ethical consumption practice. The contents of HEE curriculum for ethical consumption practice should be included in consumption and consumption, sustainable consumption, and ethical consumption.

The advent of the carbon neutrality era has led to a paradigm shift in education toward ecological transition education. It is time to understand the concept and practice of ecological transition education pursued in the 2022 revised curriculum and prepare for changes to the main life education covered in home economics education. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the role of home economics education for carbon neutrality for future generations who will have to live in the era of rapidly changing climate crisis, and to propose a practice plan for ecological transition education in the main living area based on the educational contents of the 2022 revised curriculum. To achieve these objectives, this study reviewed previous research on carbon neutrality and ecological transition education, analyzed the curriculum for main life from the first curriculum to the 2022 revised curriculum, and proposed the direction of main life education for ecological transition education. Through this study, the importance of carbon neutrality and ecological transition can be emphasized in home economics education, and it is expected that it can be used as a basis for realizing ecological transition education in actual education sites.
