이 연구의 목적은 과학기술 시대 노인교육의 방향을 탐색하는 것이다. 연구목적 달성을 위한 연구내용은 첫째, 노인교육의 현황을 살펴보고, 둘째, 과학기술 시대 노인교육의 방향을 제시하는 것이다. 노인교육의 현황으로 노인교육은 계속 변화하고 발전하고 있으며, 노인들이 더 풍요로운 노후 생활을 즐길 수 있도록 다양한 프로그램과 활동이 제공되고 있다. 노인실태조사보고서를 보면 노인의 학습활동의 경우 전체 노인의 11.9%가 학습활동에 참여하고 있다. 노인교육 학습활동 참여자의 학습활동 실시 기관은 노인복지관이 35.5%로 가장 많았다. 과학기술 시대 노인교육의 방향으로 첫째, 노인 교육내용 구성의 경우 디지털 기술 및 정보 활용 교육이 필요하다. 둘째, 노인 교육 방법의 경우 맞춤형 노인교육 방법이 필요하다. 셋째, 노인교육 기관 운영의 경우 노인교육을 위한 전문 교육 센터를 더욱 강화하고 지원해야 한다. 국제사회는 노인인구의 증가로 인해 새로운 사회제도의 구축과 재정적 투자를 사회적 위기가 아닌 새로운 성장동력으로 삼자는 공감대가 이미 형성되고 있다. 고령 인구의 증가로 사회보장 영역의 부담이 있지만 노인의 잠재된 역량과 경험을 새롭게 인식하여 사회적 자원으로 환원할 수 있는 방향으로 전환하고 있다. 과학기술 시대의 노인교육은 미래 사회를 건강하고 발전적으로 건설해 갈 수 있는 방향으로 전환할 필요가 있다.

This paper presents the status of nutrition education for older adults in Korea, and examines considerations in developing effective nutrition education programs for the elderly based on literature reviews. Finally, strategies of nutrition education for older adults in Korea are examined. Status of nutrition education were examined by surveying 90 senior centers, and 46 public health centers providing nutrition services. Most senior centers(96%) provided health education programs, however, nutrition was only a part of health programs. Among the 41 public health centers which responded to the survey, 73.1% provided nutrition education for older adults. The frequently covered topics were prevention & management of hypertension/stroke, diabetes, nutritional management during later adulthood, and osteoporosis. Common barriers in planning and implementing elderly education were; lack of educational materials for older adults, reliance on lectures, difficulty in following-up. To develop effective nutrition education, four stages consisting of needs assessment, planning and implementation of programs, and evaluation should be carefully done. Needs assessment might be done using quantitative or qualitative assessment. Factors influencing nutrition behavior of older adults can be systematically examined using a theoretical approach such as the PRECEDE-PROCEED framework. Qualitative methods, such as focus group interviews, also provide insightful information regarding the needs of older adults. In planning nutrition education programs, physical and pshychological changes associated with aging should be considered. Literature regarding elderly education suggest that active participation or participatory learning is also effective for older adults. Educational materials are developed following the principle of KISS and pre-tested. Program evaluation has been rarely done in practice, although it provides valuable feedback to the program. Strategies for developing nutrition education for Korean elderly include; performing needs assessment, developing a standard program by topics in a logical and systematic way, developing programs for subgroups of elderly, applying diverse education methods developing educational materials for the elderly, evaluating programs using simple tools, and delivering a nutrition program as a part of health promotion program. Finally, the interaction and communication between researchers and practitioners is strongly recommended to ensure better nutrition education and services to the elderly.

The ability to use and utilize information technology devices in the knowledge-based society shows many differences in terms of quality of life. However, in the case of the elderly, the elderly suffer difficulties in acquiring information technology due to their aging characteristics, so they can not easily adapt to rapidly changing societies. Therefore, it is becoming more and more important to educate the elderly who are trying to adapt to the new environment of knowledge-based society. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the previous researches of the researchers related to the elderly informatization education and the report of the actual situation of the digital divide of the government, and identified the problems and suggested ways to activate the effective education for the aged. The following suggestions are made to activate information education. First, there is a need for systematic promotion and professional counseling on the need for information education for the elderly learners.
