The purpose of this study is to analyze the school autonomy policy based on the system thinking perspective using causal loop diagrams. School autonomy was the main educational policy concerning school domain during the last government and was the instrument for school-based management, but it was not implemented effectively in site. The school autonomy policy practically disappeared as an explicit policy agenda in the current government. This study displays causal loop diagrams about the policy's logic and contents of school autonomy, in terms of curriculum, human resource management, and a supportive system. The causal loop diagrams depicting the implementation of the school autonomy policy are suggested concerning excessive enforcement and the confirmative mechanism for policy implementation. The conclusion provides some research implications and future directions.

Improving the quality of school education is one of the key policy concerns in Korea. This paper examines whether providing schools with adequate autonomy and incentives can meet the policy goals by looking at a recent policy reform in Korea. In 2009, the Korean government granted autonomy to certain private high schools on the condition that no financial subsidies would be provided to the schools. Because the autonomous private high schools cannot receive a subsidy, they have a strong incentive to meet parental demands because schools failing to meet these demands will lose students and will have to close. Applying the value-added model to longitudinal data at the student level, I find that students entering these autonomous schools show faster growth in their academic achievement than their peers in traditional non-autonomous schools. These results suggest that providing schools with autonomy and incentives can be a useful policy tool for improving school education.

The purpose of this study was to see teachers' perception on the School Autonomy Policy and to give some suggestions for better settlement of the policy. To achieve the above aim, we used survey method to 390 teachers and analyzed 363 responses with SPSS program. The research findings are as follows. Most of teachers supported the intent and aim of the School Autonomy Policy, however, the respondents showed conflicting responses on the contents, process, core subject according to their interests. In other words, respondents who have more teaching career including principals answered positively on the policy and it's process than lower career teachers. Lower career teachers expressed very negative recognition and little understanding for the policy itself. From the result of the survey, it could be suggested that the teachers' cooperation, especially lower career teachers' conciliation, is very important to settle down the School Autonomy Policy successively.

The purpose of this study was to figure out adoption of curriculum autonomy policy by a middle school. To achieve the purpose, official documents accepted or produced by the school were examined regarding how much curriculum autonomy was given to the school. As well as, minutes on curriculum organization and implementation and interviews with significant figures in the school were analyzed to reveal how the school exerted its curriculum autonomy. The results indicated that superior educational administrative institution that had made decision on curriculum autonomy policy and promoted it constantly sent to the school official documents that required it to report what had been done. Such practices prevented the school from autonomous organization and implementation of curriculum. In addition, as most decisions on curriculum organization and implementation at school level was made by administrator and teachers with special position, most teachers remained at passive status to accept what had decided by them. Parents'committee did not exercise their rights by lack of expertise and passive attitude.

이 연구는 한국의 교육과정 자율화 정책이 결정되고 학교 현장에 적용되는 교육과정 자율화 현상을 설명하는 모형으로서 '통합적 순환모형'을 제외하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 첫째, 교육과정 자율화의 의의와 한국의 교육과정 자율화에 대한 특징을 살펴보았다. 둘째, 정책결정 모형에 대한 비판적 분석을 토대로 대안적 교육과정 정책결정 모형의 필요성에 대해 논의하였다. 셋째, 통합적 순환 모형에 대해 탐색하였다. 여기서는 모형 정립의 조건 탐색과 모형의 기본 방향에 대해 제시하고 통합적 순환 모형을 구안하였다. 통합적 순환 모형은 거시 모형과 미시 모형으로 구분하여 살펴보고 이들을 통합한 모형으로 제시하였다. 논의 결과 우리나라 상황에 적합한 교육과정 정책 모형의 필요, 국가에서 부여한 자율성으로 인한 교육현장의 국가에 대한 자율 요청 행위의 촉진, 외적 개입의 배제와 내적 통제가 확립된 자율성의 개념화가 필요하였다. 이들 논의를 통해 모형 적용의 일반화, 교육과정 질 관리, 검증을 통한 보완 등의 제언을 하였다.

The Korean government initiated an educational policy regulating academic acceleration in schools (e.g., regulating teaching or assessing above-grade-level content) in order to normalize public education and prevent the growth of private tutoring. To analyze whether the policy is achieving its intended goals, this study examined how high school mathematics teachers responded to the policy. The findings indicate four distinct teacher responses: the teachers would teach above-grade-level lessons in classes, but not assess them on a test; the teachers sought academic acceleration to prevent excessive private tutoring, although the policymakers thought that teachers' academic acceleration results in an excessive demand for private tutoring; the teachers were willing to teach above-grade-level content for students, but they were reluctant to teach below-grade-level content due to the time constraints; and the teachers recognized that the policy limited their curricular autonomy, even though it was intended to ensure their autonomy. Implications for mathematics teacher educators and policymakers are discussed.

The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between professional autonomy and ideology among Korean physicians and to investigate how these factors affect job satisfaction like social status satisfaction and economic reward satisfaction. This study utilized a self-administered questionnaire survey and collected data nationwide between July and August, 2003. 211 responses were used for final analysis. SPSS 12.0 was used for a chi-square test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, independent t-test and hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The results of this study were as follows. First, many variables of ideological factor were related to job satisfaction. Second, physicians expecting the change of political influence has patient-centered attitude. Third, there were many relationships between professional autonomy and ideology variables. Fourth, physicians expecting the change of political influence and customer-centered healthcare system showed more job satisfaction. In conclusion, professional autonomy is related to ideology, and in order to enhance job satisfaction, ideological factor needs more development. In addition, market-oriented healthcare system would contribute to enhance the job satisfaction of physicians expecting the change of political influence and customer-centered healthcare system.

본 연구는 직업전문학교 재학생의 학습동기와 학습 자율성이 직무창의성과 전공만족도 및 학교만족도와 어떤 영향관계인지 파악하는 것을 연구목적으로 하였다, 국내 전문직업학교가 비교적 최근에 활성화되었고 학술적 연구가 매우 부족한 현실이다. 직업전문학교 제과제빵 전공 재학생 설문조사를 통해 이론적 선행연구에 근거한 연구가 설들을 검증하였다. 직무창의성은 학생의 학습동기와 학습 자율성의 복합적인 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 내재적 학습동기와 학습 자율성은 전공만족도에 유의한 수준의 긍정적 영향을 미치나 외재적 학습동기는 전공만족도에 부적 영향관계를 보였다, 직업전문학교 교육은 실무중심의 기술전달 방식 위주라서 본 연구는 학습동기, 창의성, 학습 자율성 등의 심리적 성향이 학생 만족도에 미치는 영향을 파악하였고 교과정책 반영에 참고할 결과를 제시하였다. 향후 신입생 홍보나 교과운영, 학사관리를 위하여 더 체계적이며 복합적인 연구가 필요하다.

Adolescent media addiction has emerged as an important social agenda in Korea. However, there has not been enough discussion on the causal structure of media addiction and policy interventions. The objective of this study is to identify and assess the mechanism of the existing and the revised Shutdown policy based on the systems thinking approach. To achieve this purpose, we establish the relationship between media usage, flow, and addiction, and develop a causal loop diagram. Based on the causal loop diagram, we explore the causal structure of two policy scenarios: shutdown policy and deregulation. Our study suggests that policy interventions inducing direct parental control on children's media usage time are ineffective since the time control reduces children's autonomy, which helps alleviate media addiction. Therefore, this study suggests that policy intervention should focus on alleviating addiction itself rather than on controlling media usage time.

2008년 4월 15일 학교 자율화 계획에 따라, ICT 교육에 대한 국가 수준의 지침은 폐지되었으며, 오히려 학교 수준에서 ICT교육에 대한 책임이 더욱 커지게 되었다. 이와 같은 교육정책의 급격한 변화는 단위학교 수준에서 ICT 교육 정책에 대한 의사결정에 큰 영향을 미치게 되었다. 그 결과로서 학생, 교사, 학교 간의 디지털 격차가 발생하게 될 가능성이 높아졌다. 따라서 본 연구는 단위학교 수준에서 ICT 교육정책에 대한 의사결정 유형과 인식에 대하여 조사하였다. 그리고 초등학교에서 ICT 교육정책 의사결정을 위한 새로운 의견을 제시하였다
