This study was conducted to present an alternative instructional model through natural experience activities by developing a natural experience activity program that can learn and feel how to recognize and act on nature based on flow learning. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, a nature experience program, which consists of four stages of meeting nature, exploring nature, playing with nature and sharing emotions, was developed based on the main procedures of each stage of the ADDlE instructional design model. Through the research process, activities and precautions for each stage of the nature experience activity program were presented, and major educational implications were discussed based on the developed program. The nature experience program developed through the study can provide teachers with a basic direction for nature experience activities along with changing their perception of how to do nature experience activities, and infants are expected to become learners who freely feel, experience nature and make up their own knowledge through the nature experience program.

The purpose of this study is to explore the experience of participants in the adventurous leisure activities and to examine the structural relations of the cognitive experience, the emotional experience and adherence intention. Robust quantitative measures were developed from rich qualitative data. The five dimensions selected from two preliminary tests were being away, technical enhancement, fascination with nature, challenge, and interpersonal trust. The cognitive dimensions have a significant effect on the emotional arousal - pleasure dimension. Our study also shows a positive causal relationship between emotional experience and adherence intention. Implications of this study include 1) a developed questionnaire for measuring the cognitive experience dimension of adventure leisure and establishing a foundation for future research, and 2) an identified psychological model among cognitive, emotion, and intention. We offer opportunities to better understand the psychological factors that motivate participation in adventure leisure.

본 연구의 목적은 국가경쟁력 향상을 위한 세계적인 융합의 흐름을 대비하여 융합 기반인 교육용 로봇을 활용한 창의적 체험활동 프로그램을 설계하는데 있다. 이를 통해 해외의 정보교육 활성화 경향과는 달리 초등학교에서 소외되는 정보교육의 중요성을 부각시키고, 창의성과 인성을 강조하는 창의적 체험활동에서 자연스럽게 활용되기 위함이다. 이에 교육용 로봇을 활용한 융합교육 단계와 프로그램 교수 학습 모형의 설계를 통해 초등학교의 창의적 체험활동에서 활용될 수 있는 프로그램의 토대가 되고자 한다.

This study is intended to look into early childhood teachers' perceptions and needs for forest experience activities. To achieve this, a survey was carried out to 170 early childhood teachers in kindergartens and child care centers in Daejeon city. The SPSS(Statistical Package for Social Science) v. 18.0 was used for data analysis through the process of data coding and data cleaning. The frequency analysis was conducted for the general state of those surveyed. The frequency analysis, ANOVA and factor analysis were conducted for the perceptions and needs for forest experience activities. The findings showed that early childhood teachers had positive perceptions for the educational effects of forest experience activities. Especially, they perceived that the educational programs of forest experience activities need to be highly recommended to early children as forest experience education is important for forest experience activities. Consequently, forest experience education is just as important and useful for early children to learn the importance of coexistence with human and nature, and develop a sense of community by interacting with nature.

This study analyzed the impact of securing nature-friendly public spaces on the healthy growth of children. Additionally, it examined the case of Germany to extract implications for Korea. The natural environment enhances children's play, physical activity, cognitive abilities, and overall happiness. Therefore, it is generally considered a necessary space that must be provided for domestically, especially for children who experience high academic stress and low levels of happiness. However, as evidenced by Germany's "Nature Experience Area Project," creating nature-friendly spaces for children requires legal support at the national level. Additionally, such projects should be integrated with key national policies. Furthermore, beyond interdisciplinary collaboration, caregivers must have a positive perception of the natural environment.

우리나라는 다양한 해양활동을 즐기기에 풍부한 자연환경을 가지고 있으며, 소득 증가와 주 5일 근무 등의 사회적 여건 변화에 따라 해양에서의 여가활동이 다양해지고 증가하고 있으며, 이에 따른 국민의 해양활동과 관련된 사고 발생빈도도 함께 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 해양에서의 사고를 직접적으로 감소시킬 수 있는 국민의 해양사고 대응역량 강화를 위한 해양안전 교육 및 체험시설의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 해양 재난·사고 발생현황, 안전관련 체험시설 현황 등의 여건분석과 안전 및 해양안전에 대한 국민의 인식조사 결과를 기반으로 해양안전 교육 및 체험시설 건립의 사회적 타당성을 제시하였다.
