이 연구에서는 2015 개정 교육과정에 따른 초등 과학 국정 교과서와 동 교육과정에 따라 2022년에 출판된 초등 과학과 검정 교과서 7종의 '물체의 무게' 단원에 진술된 과학 개념의 서술과 탐구활동 내용의 특징을 비교하여 초등 과학 검정 교과서의 내용 다양성을 분석해 보았다. 이를 위해 각 교과서의 설명텍스트에서 개념 서술 내용의 흐름, 개념 서술 과정에서의 특이점을 분석하였고, 언어네트워크 분석 방법으로 노드와 링크 수, 연결중심성이 높은 중심 단어를 분석 하였다. 또한 교과서에 제시된 탐구활동에서 탐구활동 유형, 탐구과정기능 및 탐구 활동 내용을 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 검정 교과서에서는 과학 개념의 서술이나 탐구활동 내용 구성에서 다양성이 잘 드러나지 않았다. 하위 개념의 포함 여부, 중심 단어 등이 교과서별로 유사하였다. 탐구활동을 비교하였을 때에도 탐구활동 내용과 탐구 유형, 탐구과정기능이 유사하였다. 특히 이전 교과서에서 제시되지 않았던 새로운 탐구활동 주제나 실험 방법을 도입한 경우는 없었다. 하지만 동일한 교육과정을 바탕으로 개발되었음에도 불구하고 검정 교과서 체제의 장점을 살릴 수 있는 노력들이 일부 시도되고 있었다. 핵심 내용을 설명하기 위한 하위 개념의 배치 순서가 교과서마다 달라 개념을 설명하는 과정이 몇 가지 유형으로 구분되었고, 탐구활동의 내용은 동일하였지만 기존 실험에서의 어려움을 개선하고 보완하기 위해 탐구 활동 준비물이 교과서별로 서로 다르게 나타나기도 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 검정 교과서의 장점을 살릴 수 있는 시도가 계속되어야 할 것이다.

The purpose for this study is to check if research activities can make positive effects on inquiry instruction utilizing materials when compared to traditional instruction utilizing the textbook. The effects of the class should be measured both in cognitive domain and in affective domain. The cognitive domain was measured by the change in achievements in learning science, and the affective domain was measured by the change in learning attitudes of science. The assumptions to be verified in this study were as follows. First, achievements in learning science are higher in the learner oriented inquiry instruction utilizing materials than in the learner oriented traditional instruction utilizing the textbook. Second, learning attitudes of science are higher in the learner oriented inquiry instruction utilizing materials than in the learner oriented traditional instruction utilizing the textbook.The results of the research are as follows. In the cognitive domain, achievements in learning science showed significant change(p=.045) measured by verifying the score for the difference among the averages for each sub-scale, in 5% of meaningful probability, and were higher in the inquiry instruction utilizing materials study. In the affective domain, learning attitudes of science showed significant change(p=.019) measured by verifying the score for the difference among the averages for each sub-scale, in 5% of meaningful probability, and were higher in the inquiry instruction utilizing materials study. In learning attitudes of science, 2 items(self-conception of science, attitudes of learning science) out of 3 items(self-conception of science, attitudes of learning science, learning habits of science) showed significant changes (p=.045, p=.001). But the difference(learning-habits of science) was not significant(p=.914).

Since open inquiry of science was formally introduced at the 2007 Revised Science Curriculum Course, the purpose and effect of it has been positively evaluated, and it is underlined continuously until the revised science education course in 2015. However, through many previous studies, there is still a lack of awareness of open inquiry of both students and teachers in the field, and it was revealed they are continually appealing confusion and difficulties. Therefore, in this research, we analyzed the causes that make it difficult to execute open inquiry, and developed differentiated open inquiry guide materials that can contribute to the realization of teachers and students. They were developed by the brain-based evolutionary approach to provide students with authentic science. The brain-based evolutionary approach is reflecting the evolutionary attributes and the brain functions associated activities of scientists. It was revealed that, in the same way as the pilot test results, the usefulness of the differentiated guide materials were very high, and there was a statistically significant difference in the science attitude. It was found that the application of the brain-based evolutionary approach had positively influenced the stage of determining the inquiry themes, and self-confidence that could be able to do as a scientist. Analysis of top and sub group types on the basis of inquiry ability showed that both groups are improved at science attitude by the differentiated guide materials. There was a positive effect on change in the self-perception of scientific creativity. We were able to see a positive change in the post survey for open inquiry-efficacy. The developed differentiated open inquiry guide materials contributed to the improvement of open inquiry-efficacy for both the teacher and student.

본 연구에서는 2009 개정 과학 교육과정에 따른 고등학교 물리 교과서에 제시된 탐구활동을 과학적 실천 개념을 이용하여 분석하고, 교과서를 통해 학생들에게 제공되는 가능한 탐구 학습의 경험을 알아보았다. 분석 결과 '자료를 분석하고 해석하기'와 '설명 구성하고 문제해결 고안하기'가 다른 과학적 실천에 비해 강조되는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 '질문하고 문제 규정하기'는 물리 교과서 4권을 통틀어 단 1건이 있었다. 단원별로 강조되는 과학적 실천의 차이가 거의 없어 특정 과학적 실천의 강조가 교과 내용과는 무관한 것으로 드러났다. 또한 탐구활동에서 수행한 과학적 실천이 교과서 내용 전개상의 탐구활동의 목적과는 무관하게 사용되고 있음이 드러났다. 교육과정과 교과서 그리고 교사 교육에 대한 시사점과 후속 연구 과제를 제시하였다.

In this study, elementary school students' science learning characteristics together with the levels of inquiry requirement in elementary school science experiment instruction were investigated in terms of the affective domain. We divided seventy-three students of the fifth ade into two groups according to the levels of inquiry requirement. After each instruction had been implemented, the characteristics of the students' learning in terms of the affective domain were compared and analyzed within the context of the levels of inquiry requirement. There were no significant differences between Level 1(LL) and Level 2(HL) groups in terms of the affective characteristics. These results may be caused by the burden imposed by the difficulty in thinking through and setting up the experimental methods. However, the HL group students' levels of interest in science experiments was higher than that of the LL group. In conclusion, the HL instruction contributed little to the improvement of affective characteristics. Some possible reasons might be that students felt difficulties with the somewhat unfamiliar instructions which required them to design and perform experiments. Higher levels of interest in science experiments amongst HL students' implies that well-organized and continuous exercises involving the design and performance of experiments could improve students' scientific affective characteristics.

The Inquiry Activities the newly developed Korean High Schol Biology Textbooks were evaluated using SIEI(Seientific Inquiry Evaluation Inventory). The textbook evaluated are five Introductory Biology books and five Advanced Biology books developed in 1990. The instrument, SIEI, was developed by Myung Hur in his doctoral study at Columbia University in 1984. The major findings of the study are summarized below. 1. The inquiry activities in the textbooks are focusing on the low level science process skills 2. Students are rarely asked to formulate a hypothesis or to design an experiment. 3. The structure of the Inguiry Activities are mostly competitive, thus inhibiting the inquiry achievement of students. 4. The Inquiry Indices of the textbooks are between 14 and 16, meaning only 14 to 16 percent of the total instructional time are to be devoted to inquiry activities.
