  • 사범대학에 개설된 교양 강의를 통해 지속가능발전목표(SDGs)와 연계하여 지속가능발전교육(ESD)을 실시한 사례를 소개하고자 한다. SDGs 13번 목표인 '기후변화 대응'과 연계하여 설계된 수업에서 42명의 예비교사들이 표출한 탄소 발자국(carbon footprint)에 대한 인식을 분석하였다. 예비교사들은 일상생활에서 탄소를 배출하는 실천 정도에 대한 체크리스트인 탄소 다이어트 다이어리를 작성하고, 탄소 발자국 그리기 활동을 통해 자신이 배출하는 탄소의 출처와 비율을 자유롭게 표현하였다. 전기 사용, 대중교통 이용, 쓰레기 처리 항목에서는 긍정적인 실천 정도를 나타내었으나, 수도 사용에 대해서는 부정적인 방향으로 분석되었다. 탄소 발자국을 2-3가지 항목으로 표현한 예비교사들이 과반수에 달하여 자신의 일상생활에서 탄소 배출 상황을 인식하는데 한계를 나타내었다. 예비교사들은 학교현장에서 지구의 환경문제를 교육하는 주체가 될 것이며, 예비교사들의 탄소 소양(carbon literacy)은 학생들에게 직간접적 영향을 미치게 될 것이다. 17가지 SDGs와 연계되는 다양한 지속가능발전교육 프로그램이 개발되고 교육현장에 적용되어 지속가능한 지구환경교육에 기여하기를 바란다.

  • The goal of today's environmental education is to enhance the understanding of the serious of environmental problems and the interactions among environment. With this perspectives people need to be aware that environmental education is no longer a liberal arts in university education, but play a vital role within the socio-cultural context. This study was performed to assess the changes in the university student's attitudes and consciousness in real life after the education of a point at issues of environmental problems. For this study 11 questionnaires which were composed of large scale environmental problems(water and air pollution), and small scale environmental problems(food additives, GMO, endocrine disrupter) were performed with self-administered by university students(n=781) who made a application for liberal arts related to environmental subjects. According to the analysis the most student's consciousness of a point at issue of environmental problems(water pollution, air pollution, additives, GMO, endocrine disrupter), and practical attitudes(i.e., practical attendant at congregation and internet voting) were change statistically significant(p<0.01) after the education of a point at issue of environmental problems rather than before. Specially, the score for the item of the large scale problem of environmental issues(water pollution, air pollution) were decreased significantly(p<0.01), but the score for the small scale problems, such as food additives, GMO, endocrine disrupter were increased significantly(p<0.01) after the education of a point at issue of environmental problems(p<0.01). And among the students that participated, 97.7% responded that such a point at issues of environmental problem is needed at the university. With this educational improvements supports the states that the education of a point at issue of environmental problems were more essential, practical and needed to students at university rather than that of an existing instruction. Thus, further studies are required to develop the education of environmental issues at universities like STSE programme.

  • 이 논문은 다변화하고 있는 환경미학의 최근 전개 양상을 고찰하고, 환경미학의 중요한 갈래로 부상하고 있는 일상미학의 주요 의제와 주장, 쟁점과 의의를 비판적으로 검토한다. 1960년대의 문화 변동과 환경주의를 바탕으로 싹튼 환경미학은 20세기 후반 이론적 기반을 다지며 성장했고, 21세기에 들어서면서 대상과 주제의 다변화 과정에 진입했다. 학문적 성숙기를 맞은 환경미학은 도시를 포함한 인문환경 전반으로 이론적 영토를 확장했으며, 도시 환경과 경관의 계획·설계 담론으로서 실천적 좌표를 제시했다. 특히 2000년대 중반 이후 환경미학의 가장 주목할 성과는 '일상미학'의 성립이라고 할 수 있다. 일상미학 연구를 주도하고 있는 유리코 사이토는 미학 이론의 대상과 범위를 일상의 사물, 사건, 행동, 환경으로 확장한다. 그는 기존의 예술 중심적 미학이 간과해온 일상의 미시적이고 감각적인 국면을 미학의 시선으로 발굴해 현대 도시의 환경과 경관, 공간과 장소에서 벌어지는 현상의 다양한 층위를 새롭게 해석하며, 일상에 숨겨진 '미적인 것의 힘'이 삶의 질과 세상의 상태에 미치는 심대한 영향을 분석한다. 그는 일상의 대상과 환경에 내재한 특유의 성질과 분위기에 대한 감상을 고찰하고, 일상의 미적 감상과 판단이 낳는 환경적, 사회적, 정치적 결과를 경계하기 위해 '도덕적-미적 판단'을 제안한다. 이 논문은 일상미학의 쟁점과 의의를 첫째 미학의 확장과 모호한 일상, 둘째 도덕적-미적 판단과 돌봄의 미학, 셋째 도시 재생 경관과 미학적 문해력으로 파악한다. 특히 사이토가 주장하는 일상미학의 도덕적 덕목, 즉 돌봄, 사려 깊음, 감수성, 존중 등은 동시대 도시재생 경관의 실천에 대한 비평적 준거를 마련해준다. 그가 강조하는 '미학적 문해력'은 일상의 도시 환경과 경관 해석에 환경미학의 관점이 필요한 이유를 입증하는 핵심 개념이다.

  • The purpose of this research is placed on the development and application of environmental play programs for elementary school students their utilizing the neighborhood learning gardens in their districts to find its effectiveness. The research questions drawn to attain the purpose of the research are as follows. Initially, analyze the contents related to the plant appearing in the textbooks of wise life, science and practical arts of the 7th elementary school curriculum. Secondly, develop a plant utilizing environmental play program targeted towards the 4th grade elementary school students with the results of the textbook analysis as the foundation. Third, apply the plant utilizing environmental play program into the classroom to verify its effectiveness. Based on the conclusion of this research, the following is to be proposed. First, the revitalization of regional environmental education utilizing the various surroundings of the region is essential. Also, the current method of education, which is focused on theoretical knowledge, and being operated in most of the schools need to be changed over to diverse environmental education programs that are linked with the region. For this, an internet based database, information sharing and exchange program centralized around the regional environmental education center needs to be prepared. Moreover, since this research had developed an environmental play program utilizing plants that focused on the 4th grade elementary school students to verify its effectiveness, the development for environmental play programs dealing with various themes for each grades is required. Lastly, although this research has verified the effectiveness in the variables of ecological knowledge, environmental susceptibility, environmental attitude, environmental concern, environmental function and responsible environmental behavior amongst the variables of environmental literacy but there requires a succeeding research considering the variables that haven't been included in this research.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate satisfaction of student, adult and forest interpreters about facilities and program of children's garden, which was constructed as edutainment space within Korea National Arboretum on May 2011. The results are as follows. First, an information about construction of children's garden should be provided actively, because 70.8% student and 68.6% adult of respondent did not know existence of children's garden. Second, it has been analysed that a fundamental conception of GREEN-I be reflected in construction children's garden, especially, reflecting conception of Enjoy and Edutainment was comparatively high. Third, It was found that ecological experiencing activities program of children's garden was positively to develop environmental literacy for student. Fourth, It was found that satisfaction of uncommon planting area was very low among planting area and satisfaction of forest interpreters was very low about place of ecological experience learning using five senses. Finally, for effective operation of children's garden, children's garden should be provided planting for environmental education connected with the school curriculum and ecological experiencing activities program to enjoy time with the family. Therefore, these results will be applied to improve children's garden and could be applied to construct other children's garden in botanical gardens.

  • Environmentally literated students and adults should be able to use and apply the basic ecological concepts when considering environmental problems and issues. Because ecology forms the foundation of environmental education, a review of the literatures on the degree of students' understanding for ecological concepts can provide useful insights for environmental educators. The purposes of this study were as follows: first, to analyse the parts connected with ecological knowledge of two environmental education books, ‘environments’(middle school) and ‘environmental science’(high school), second, to investigate the level of understanding on ecological concepts by the use of new developed instrument. The 20 most important ecological concepts from Cherrett(1989) and the important ecological concepts' lists from Hungerford and Volk(1990), Ramsey, Hungerford and Volk(1992), Volk(1993) would be recognized and endorsed by most environmental educators as concepts essential to environmental literacy, We referenced these informations and sequenced ecological knowledge as four main categories(communities, populations, ecosystem, man as a component of the nature systems). We have used it as a criterion in the analysis of teaching materials and the development of a new test instrument($\alpha$=0.81). According to the analysed results, the understanding levels for scales and relationships of communities, populations, ecosystem were high but those for individual concepts and differences were low. By the analysis of Korean High School EE book, ‘environmental science’, learning for some concepts(succession, material cycling, niche etc.) has pointed out as one of problems. Environmental educators must pay a careful attention to the concepts that showed high rates of incorrect answer and this work will contribute toward consolidating the basis of EE and help the accomplishment of the ultimate goals in EE.

  • Objective: This study was aimed to analyze the effects of activities using picture books for young children's language development and to identify factors that caused differences in these effects by applying meta-analysis. Methods: We conducted a homogeneity test of effect sizes on 21 Korean studies published in academic journals from 1990 to February 2018 and calculated the effect size by applying a random effect model. Additionally, we conducted a meta-ANOVA to investigate whether the effect sizes differed by types of language development, picture book activities, and environmental variables-such as place, time, and agent. Results: The results indicated that the effect sizes of the 21 studies were heterogeneous and the total effect size was 0.90, which was significantly large according to Cohen's standard. The effect sizes also varied by types of language development, picture book activities, and environmental variables. Conclusion/Implications: To increase the effects of activities using picture books for young children's language development, this study suggested the importance of picture book activities to be integrated with other play areas, teaching methods, and other print materials for the development of literacy abilities, and the link between home and early childhood education institutions.

  • Recently, the call for better accountability and social responsibility from corporations has been regularly voiced, both in the academic literature and in public discussions. This poses a challenge to the existing literature in understanding consumption behaviors to direct them toward sustainable development. This study investigates the purchase intention of Gen Z consumers in Vietnam with green packaging products. Data were collected from 914 respondents by online questionnaire and then analyzed using OLS. The results suggest the significant influence of customers' income and packaging in driving customers' intention to use environmentally-friendly products. Specifically, consumers in a higher income class participate more actively in green purchases. However, problems associated with inadequate packaging are also illustrated, resulting in the poor perception of green messages and poor practice of ecological actions. Besides, subjective norms and green trust are found to be adversely related to green consumer intention. In addition, gender disparity in green behavior is reported, where female consumers show a higher tendency to ecological consumption than their male counterparts. Other demographic factors are also included in the model as control variables, which are age, education, price, environmental literacy, environmental concern, and psychological awareness, but they do not have a significant impact on green purchase intention.

  • The purpose of this study was to suggest an improvement plan ultimately to develop practical evaluation methods for national technical qualifications in the field of seeds and horticulture based on the National Competency Standards. Through this, national technical qualifications can be strengthened in terms of professionalism in the seeds and horticulture field. In order to conduct this study, the national technical qualification currently in use was matched to certain competency units and competency unit elements of National Competency Standards. We then visited an industrial site to understand the practical factors related to the technical, facility and equipment aspects of the seeds and horticulture industrial field, after which a practical evaluation exam was developed. Also, for a feasibility study, a pilot test assessment was conducted for students majoring in seeds and horticulture, with a survey also conducted with field experts and an advisory committee consisting of experts in seeds and horticulture. Based on the results, by suggesting an improvement plan for a practical evaluation method leading to better national technical qualifications in the field of seeds and horticulture, it was shown to be possible to improve knowledge, technical, and literacy aspects. This can lead to the training of outstanding technical professionals. Ultimately, the results here are expected to contribute to the improvement of the seeds and horticulture industry.
