The purpose of this study is to find historical paradigm shift of the environmental subject in Korean school curriculum. For the purpose, two research questions guided this study. First, we would like to find out the changes in environmental education curriculum by interpreting the Korean national curriculum. Second, we want to know about the paradigm shift of environment education in Korea. In this study, curriculum documents, teachers' guide books, textbooks, and other educational materials were used for literature review. The results are as follows: First, Robottom and Hart's frame of three paradigms in environmental education research, positivism, interpretivism and social criticism, was suitable in interpreting curriculum. Second, the curriculum of environment subject has substantially changed from 6th to 2007 revised curriculum. Third, while the 6th curriculum was strongly affected by the positivism and education 'about' the environment, the 7th curriculum had been influenced by the interpretivism and education 'in/through' the environment, and the 2007 revised curriculum is under the influence of the education 'for' the environment and social critical paradigm.

사진과 삽화는 현행 과학 교과서에서 핵심적인 시각적 표상 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 6차와 7차 교육과정에 따른 고등학교 지구과학 교과서에 사용된 사진과 삽화의 기능 및 구조를 비교 분석하였다. 기능 분석 결과, 6차와 7차 모두 예시적 기능이 차지하는 비율이 압도적으로 높았으며, 보충적 기능의 비율이 가장 낮았다. 7차의 경우 사진과 삽화의 기능들이 6차에 비해 다양해졌는데, 이것은 지구과학 II 보다는 I에서 보다 두드러지게 나타났다. 특히, 6차에서는 극히 미미하게 나타났던 보충적 기능과 설명적 기능이 7차에서는 증가하였으며, 장식적 기능 또한 전반적으로 증가한 것으로 분석되었다. 구조 분석 결과, 6차에 비해 7차에서 참조가 현저하게 감소하여 본문과의 연계성 면에서 오히려 퇴보한 것으로 분석되었다. 단독 사진이나 삽화에 비해 다중 구성의 비율이 증가한 것으로 나타났으나, 짝이나 연속 구성에서는 발전된 점이 나타나지 않았다. 앞으로의 과학 교과서 개발에서 사진과 삽화의 기능에서 탐구적 기능을, 구조에서 보완적 구성을 추가할 것과 사진과 삽화를 포함한 시각적 표상의 기능과 구조 측면을 과학 교과서 검정 준거로 활용할 것을 논의하였다.

In this study, the biological units of elementary school science were classified to the lower categories of Dimensions of Learning out of the 1 st to the 7th National Curriculum using the Dimensions of Learning Project developed by ASCD in USA. Also they were investigated which lower categories of Dimensions of Learning were used to the Curriculum. The results were as follows; First, the average percentages of using the lower categories of Dimensions of learning increased gradually from lower to higher grade regardless of any versions of Curriculum. For example, the percentages of using the lower categories according to grade 3 to 6 were increased by $56.1\%,\;61.4\%.\;67.1\%,\;86.8\%$ in the 7th Curriculum (r = .942). Second, as a result of investigating the percentages of using lower categories of Dimensions of Learning according to the change of curriculum, the average percentages appeared to be $37.9\%,\;42.9\%,\;41.1\%,\;47.6\%,\;47.6\%,\;50.5\%,\;67.9\%$ from the 1st to the 7th National Curriculum, respectively. In addition, the average percentages were increased gradually from the 1st to the 7th National Curriculum (r = .878). Third, the average percentages of using the lower categories of Dimensions of Learning decreased approximately from 1 st to 5th Dimension. The results are considered to be a desirable organization considering the physiological, cognitive development of elementary students.
