본 연구의 목적은 중학생의 로하스 의식을 함양시키는 것이다, 이를 위해 중학교 2학년 기술 가정 '의복의 선택과 관리' 단원에서 로하스 관련 교육 내용 요소를 추출하여 학습 주제를 선정하고 실천적 문제 중심 교수 학습 과정안을 개발하여 수업에 적용하였다. 개발된 교수 학습 과정안은 경기도 시흥시 소재 중학교 2학년 8학급 학생을 대상으로 학급별로 5차시씩 적용하였다. 교수 학습 과정안의 학습 주제는 로하스 소비와 관련하여 일반적인 의식, 오가닉 패션, 천연 자연소재 섬유, 재활용 소재 패션, 천연 염색 총 5가지이며 총괄 실천적 문제는 '로하스 의식을 함양하기 위해 나는 무엇을 해야 하는가?'로 설정하였다. 각 교수 학습 과정안의 특징은 문제 인식의 도입 단계에서 정보 탐색 및 정보 선택을 하는 전개 단계를 거쳐 실천적 추론을 하는 정리 단계로 구성되었다는 것이며, 총 5차시에 걸쳐 활동지와 읽기 자료, 교사 도움 자료를 포함, 총 34개의 자료를 개발하여 로하스 의식을 함양할 수 있게 하였다. 교수 학습 과정안을 수업에 적용한 결과 로하스 의식은 일반적인 로하스 의식, 의복의 선택과 관련한 로하스 의식 모두 수업 전보다 수업 후 유의미하게 함양되었다. 또한 학생들은 본 수업이 로하스 의식 함양에 도움이 되었고 이로 인해 의복의 선택과 관련하여 소비 생활에 대한 생각 및 태도가 많이 변화되었다고 하였다. 본 연구는 학생들이 로하스 소비라는 국가 사회적 흐름에 동참하며, 사회가 요구하는 소비자로서의 자질을 갖추도록 했다는 점에서 교육적 의의를 가진다. 더불어 가정과 교육에서 건강과 환경, 사회를 위하여 로하스 의식 함양을 위한 다양한 교수 학습 과정 안이 개발되어야 할 것이다.

This study investigated the purchase intention of green fashion products based on Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation theory and compared the differences between Korean and British consumers. In order to identify the impact of personal characteristics, this study also examined the effects of fashion innovativeness and LOHAS tendency on perceived attributes of innovation and intention to purchase. With a convenience sampling method, a survey questionnaire was distributed at popular fashion streets in each country. A total of 426 data were obtained, 203 from the UK and 223 from Korea. About 52% were females, and 69% were in their twenties. A factor analysis generated two LOHAS factors (health concerns and eco concerns) and four attributes of green fashion products (image improvement, symbolic superiority, observability, and compatibility). Two types of green fashion products (organic cotton t-shirts and organic cotton t-shirts with an environmental message) were provided to measure the purchase intention, respectively. The findings were as follows. British consumers were more likely to show LOHAS tendency and to perceive positive advantages of green products compared to Koreans; in addition, British consumers presented higher mean scores on the purchase intentions of organic cotton products. Fashion innovativeness was significant to predict image improvement and symbolic superiority, while eco concerns were significant in compatibility for both nations. Compatibility was important for both countries in order to explain the intention to adopt two types of organic products. In addition, image improvement was another predictor for purchase intention of organic t-shirts with an environmental message. Managerial implications were provided.
