1895년 영화가 탄생하면서부터 영화가 예술로서 인정받기까지 오랜 시간이 걸렸듯이 영화가 그 교육적 가치를 인정받기까지도 상당히 오랜 시간이 걸렸다. 즉, 영화가 소비 지향적이라는 비판에서부터 영화는 집에서만 봐도 충분하다는 식의 편견까지 이러한 오해를 불식시키기까지 짧지 않은 시간이 흘렀다. 영화 자체가 교육적 대상으로 인정받기 시작한 것은 1964년 영국영화연구소에서 나온 "영화교육(Film Teaching)"에서 영화교육의 필요성이 논의된 이후에 자연스럽게 그 가치를 인정받기 시작했다. 한편 2004년부터 예술강사 지원사업에 의해 영화교육의 대중화가 본격적으로 이루어졌고, 한 해 뒤인 2005년 만화애니메이션교육이 대중화시대를 열었다. 이렇듯 만화애니메이션교육과 영화교육은 그 교육적 접근은 오래되지 않았지만, 교육과 관련해서 전문적인 동시에 대중적인 측면도 함께 지니고 있다. 다시 말해서, 대학교육에서 이론적이고 실제적인 교육이 이루어지고 있지만, 대중적인 영향력을 통해서 초 중등학교에서 많은 관심을 가지고 있는 교육영역이다. 이렇게 다양한 층위에서 진행되고 있는 만화애니메이션교육과 영화교육을 문화예술교육이라는 범주에서 살펴볼 것이다. 이는 전문예술인 양성을 위한 전문교육인 아닌 초 중등학교에서 이루어지고 있는 문화예술교육이라는 관점에서 바라볼 것이다. 특히 한국문화예술진흥원의 예술강사 지원사업을 중심으로 현재 진행되고 있는 만화애니메이션교육과 영화교육을 점검할 것이다. 그리고 영화교육에서 진행되고 있는 교직과정을 살펴봄으로써 만화애니메이션교육도 이러한 제도적 뒷받침의 필요성을 밝힐 것이다.

The domestic cartoon industry has went through rapid reformation since 2010 incurred by the emergence of webtoon. Most of the students in cartoon schools long to become webtoonists rather than published cartoonists. Cartoon education in middle and high schools rather focuses on webtoons. The growth of webtoons in private education, excluding college entrance examination, is even more promising. In the same train of thought, the number of webtoon private education institution has surged exponentially. Despite provincial colleges experiencing difficulty due to the lack of the student population, the competition for cartoon admission is intensifying. However, college education often maintains curriculums that do not relate to the on-site demands. Cartoon education in the past was mostly carried out through apprenticeship programs. However such programs began to disappear as college education became more common and as people embraced the emergence of webtoons. Instead collective education and author debut programs replaced the old system. Individualization of education is exacerbating as digital writing tools allow individual webtoonists to publish their works on a weekly basis. The background of the growth of webtoon education can obviously be explained by the growth of the market but there are aspects that can't be explained in such a simple manner. This study examines the current webtoon education status and discusses possible methodological and formation development measures for the future. The introduction examines the change in education and market. The main subject examines the current secondary schools and universities cartoon education and conducts a comprehensive study on the various education related changes. This study proposes future directions for universities by looking at the webtoon era and education changes in the conclusion. It also researched how the units of college cartoon education will fuse and deduct practical results via government policies.

We can say that there are several majors in the course of cartoon education of college; cartoon, manpyung, 4 panel comic strips, editorial cartoon, webtoon and so on. Among them, this study starts with concrete question; "How can we encourage students to understand 4 panel comic strips better in the educational course of 4 panel comic strips?" 4 panel comic strips divided into two groups, depending on the materials. The first is daily cartoon which depicts the emotion in daily life. The second is editorial cartoon which deals with the problems of society in the ironical and witty way. Judging from my own thoughts that it would be better in the understanding and analysis of structures to take editorial cartoon in which materials are confined to social problems, this study treats rhetoric expression and structures of 4 panel comic strips. Introduction, development, turn and conclusion of "Jangdori" on Kyunghyangsinmoon are good materials for this study. So, "Jangdori" is in the center of this study. The objective of this study is to provide knowledge in creating 4 panel comic strips with the understanding the area of 4 panel comic strips through the analysis of the rhetoric expression and structures of this field. Even though this study has a limit, no access to daily 4 panel comic strips, I hope that this study would be a little help in any places in which the education of 4 panel comic strips is needed as a part of a course of cartoon in college.

There is a growing movement of cartoon and animation circles to legislate the cartoon promotion act. It is anticipated that a wind of change will blow through the cartoon circle as private organizations are planned to established and a budget over 20 billion won is allocated. Although it is very encouraging for colleges who perform a substantial role in introducing new authors, a full internal discussion on the cartoon promotion act is still at a fledgling stage. Currently, the college restructuring craze is sweeping the country and cartoon animation education program can not be an exception. Especially, the irony of helping graduates who desire to be authors find jobs and expressing it as a statistical figure is too burdensome and worn out to regard it as an indiscretion of government. This study aims to examine the problems of cartoon animation college programs in South Korea by focusing on graduates' job-finding and career planning and to propose solutions through the legislation of cartoon promotion act.

Comics are a genre that convey meaning through compositional arrangements of dialogue and images as well as through the flow of panels across a page. Communicating that meaning to readers through a combination of language and visual lexicons is the essential process of drawing comics, a process that in itself is significant. The semiotics of comics is a field of scholarship grounded in the broader discipline of semiotic theory in which all the components of comics, both visual and verbal, are the subject of study and research. By adopting a semiotic approach we are able to objectively analyze and understand the symbolic, social and ideological meanings embedded in the signs and sign processes expressed in comics. The fundamental pedagogical mission of teaching comics is to cultivate human nature through the study of theory as well as through the production and completion of original works that explore new modes of expression. To go further, interpreting those embedded meanings in the context of comics fosters effective and creative skills of expression that go beyond a mere fascination for the genre itself. In short, because the semiotic approach to understanding visual communication is the essence teaching comics, we can expect that the act of reading and creating comics plays a significant role in understanding visual communication.

Though the education of culture and art for disabled children is very important, it has not been brisk yet until recently due to 'absence of the teaching methods suitable for disability types, levels and programs.'. In this situation, cartoon contents can be used as the most appropriate tools for culture and art education for mentally retarded children. Entertainment functions and genre features of cartoon contents can motivate the applicable children to participate more voluntarily and positively and function as teaching tools for interesting activities. Of course, since it is not proper to apply the cartoon contents for normal children to Special Education Field as they are, cartoon works should be made by understanding closely the characteristics and degrees of retardation of the applicable children and applying them to the composition of cartoons. However, for the contribution of this attempt to education field, it is thought that concrete guidelines for producing cartoon contents considering the concept of various types of disability, emotion, social behavioral traits, ability of cognition, school achievements, and the characteristics of language and physical health should be necessary, and to improve the application of the developed cartoon contents so that they will not remain as superficial results, sufficient communication with the applicable children such as application to classes in the process of development is necessary.
