이 연구의 목적은 Nature-Study 관련 문헌 연구를 통해 Nature-Study의 교육방법을 도출하고 이 교육방법이 오늘날 과학교육에 주는 의의를 고찰하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 Nature-Study의 역사적 연구를 발전시켜 Nature-Study의 교육관점을 도출하고 19세기 후반에서 20세기 초반에 출판된 Nature-Study 관련 문헌을 수집 분석하여 각 교육관점에 따른 교육방법을 추출하였다. 또한 추출한 교육방법을 바탕으로 Nature-Study가 오늘날 과학교육에 주는 의의를 고찰하였다. 연구 결과 Nature-Study는 자연에 대한 학습이라는 관점에서 학생과 자연의 교감을 강조하고, 교과 통합적 학습을 중시하며, 비형식적 학습을 학교 수업에 포함시키는 교육방법을 지향한다. 또 직접 경험을 통한 학습이라는 관점에서 야외 활동을 지향하고, 교재보다 경험이 선행될 것을 강조하며, 기초적인 관찰을 중시한다. 마지막으로 학습자 중심의 학습이라는 관점에서 학생의 흥미를 중요시하고, 모든 학생을 위한 교육을 지향하며, 조력자로서 교사의 역할을 강조한다. 이와 같은 Nature-Study 사상은 오늘날 과학교육에 '자연을 통한 과학학습'으로의 관점 전환이 필요함을 시사한다.

Background and objective: People-nature experiences, which suggest that humans seek connections between nature and other forms of life, were presented by biologist E. O. Wilson in 1984. Biophilic design attributes support environments that can improve human connections to nature. A significant amount of literature on environmental psychology provides empirical evidence that nature benefits humans, and that practical landscape and built environments can be designed to link humans and nature (e.g., the 14 biophilic design patterns). To date, however, there has been no well-done research on reviewing the health benefits of biophilic design. Methods: The paper provides a narrative review on biophilic design and human health. The scope of this article is limited to biophilic-design books and peer-review articles related to "biophilic design," "evidence-based," "benefits," "health," rather than an attempt to identify universal issues with biophilia hypothesis. Results: A total of 45 papers were included in our review, which was related to the top five biophilic design patterns and design: the presence of natural images, the presence of plants, visual and non-visual connections to nature, and material connection with nature. These studies were related to physiology and psychology through direct or indirect connections with nature and experiences in space and place. Conclusion: This study presents two important comparisons of the empirical research on biophilic design and human health that can explain the relationship of people-nature experiences to biophilic design and human health and provides insights into related researches and recommendations for future application of our findings.

The emphasis in environmental education for children should be on awareness, appreciation, and sensory experiences. By offering children opportunities to experience the elements of nature that surround them, teachers elevate children's comfort level and familiarity with the natural world. But many children have little contact with nature, because of urban living, hurried schedules, TV's attraction, and the low value most schools place on outdoor activities. So, teachers have to expand the real out-of-door experiences into the classroom by sharing and making accessible books focusing on nature and the natural environment. Namely, quality children's literature is an excellent vehicle for extending a particular experience or introducing new ones. Building on outdoor experiences through stories encourages children to explore more deeply what they have observed and experienced-concepts are reinforced, new knowledge gained, vicarious experiences provided. There are three-fold classification of environmentalism, especially environmental ethics, and three-aspects of the history in children's literature. The analytical results of this study are as follow. The environmental ideology in elementary Korean textbooks varies from 'egocentrism-didacticism' to 'ecocentrism-fantasy'. This finding has implication for selecting children's books and teaching environmental contents in elementary school. Therefore teachers and parents need to get ready to receive ecocriticism.

In modern society which changes from quantity-seeking society to value-seeking one, people's various lifestyles have great effect on consumption patterns and work as an important factor in choosing hotels. The fact that design hotels, which provide unique experiences with differentiated and sensitive designs by reflecting various lifestyles, recently attract attention can be understood in the same context. As a matter of fact, design hotels recently serve as destinations as they become cultural and artistic icons which reflect customer lifestyles. Especially, the designs of lobby spaces in hotels play deciding role in customers' choices while representing the nature of hotels. In this respect, under the premise that the kinds of accumulated experiences are different depending on lifestyles and preferences for specific interior spaces are influenced by association mechanism formed by experiences, this study analyzed lobby spaces of design hotels which focus on specific lifestyles from the perspective of association mechanism based on experiences. As the method of analysis, this study classified the types of lifestyles and conducted case analysis to investigate what association mechanism works to enhance the preference of design hotels by types. Study classified lifestyles into experiential activity type, social meeting type, fashion-pursuing type and hideout-preferring type and analyzed cases of lobby designs in design hotels. The results of this case analysis are as follows; First, experiential activity type mainly utilized quasi-association and approach association through senses and social meeting type utilized quasi-association and memory association through emotions while fashion-pursuing type utilized quasi-association and presumption association through intuition and hideout-preferring type utilized quasi-association and approach association through thoughts. Second, it was found that most lobby designs are characterized by association mechanism in visual formative nature and that in temporal spatial nature working in complex way, and, through such process of association expansion, space stories are created. Stories of spaces created this way become unique identities of design hotels that provide new experiences for customers.

The healing tourism has been growing rapidly in Korea. This study examines the restoration experience of rural healing tourism by qualitative method. The restoration environment is based on nature, and rural areas are the representative places for nature-based tourism. Therefore, this study aims to explore the meaning of restoration experiences of rural healing tourism. An in-depth interview process was used as the primary qualitative research method for this study. Nine interviews were given and from a thematic analysis of the data, six themes of restoration environments were emerged. The restoration environment of the rural settings are as follows; being away, fascination, extent, compatibility, healing nature, and leisure activity. Attention restoration theory provides a model that helps explain the results of this study. The results of this study can be useful for establishing effective marketing strategies through understanding the restoration environment in rural healing tourism.

이 연구에서는 학생들의 학교 밖 과학 경험과 과학의 본성에 대한 견해 사이의 관계를 조사하였다. 연구 대상은 서울시 소재의 학교에서 표집한 6학년 267명, 8학년 281명, 10학년 307명이었다. 과학의 본성에 대한 학생들의 견해 조사에는 과학의 목적, 과학 이론의 정의, 과학적 모형의 성질, 과학 이론의 잠정성, 과학 이론의 기원에 관한 5 문항으로 이루어진 과학의 본성 검사지를 이용하였다. 학생들의 학교 밖 과학 경험은 7 문항으로 구성된 수정본 과학 경험 검사의 하위 범주를 이용하여 측정하였다. 연구 결과, 6학년에서는 학생들의 학교 밖 과학 경험과 과학의 본성에 대한 견해 사이에 통계적으로 유의미한 관계가 나타나지 않았다. 8학년의 경우, 학교 밖 과학 경험 상위 수준 학생들은 과학적 모형의 성질에 대한 문항에서 현대 인식론적인 견해를 지니고 있었으나, 과학 이론의 잠정성 문항에서는 반증주의적 견해를 지니고 있었다. 10학년 학생들의 경우, 과학의 목적, 과학 이론의 정의, 과학적 모형의 성질에 대한 문항에서 학교 밖 과학 경험 상위 수준 학생들이 하위 수준 학생들에 비해 인식론적으로 세련된 견해를 지니고 있는 것으로 나타났다.
