This study aims to examine the prospecting view of future society from a critical perspective, and to explore the direction of home economics education that can lead to transformation of future society from Habermas's critical theory. For this, Habermas's critical theory was understood, and the direction was explored in which field should act to guide future society when home economics education took a critical science perspective. Direction for praxis of home economics education was explored in both lifeworld and system area of society based on the critical theory that individuals, families and society are mutually beneficial and continue through interactions. The praxis of home economics education from a critical science perspective has been found through examples of IFHE's advocacy and policy participation activities. In conclusion, it supported the reason that home economics education as a critical science should form a social, political and economic system as well as lifeworld with valued human conditions and practice professional activities in academic, daily life and societal areas which will lead to the critical and participatory changes in individual and family life.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the 'Action Competence on Climate Change(ACoCC)' shown in 12 types of middle school 「Technology & Home Economics」 textbooks written according to the 2015 revised curriculum, and to suggest ways to improve the activity tasks. According to the results of the analysis, first, the 'knowledge on climate change' was the most frequently mentioned, and 'climate change communication' was the least frequently mentioned in the textbook among ACoCC. Second, all 12 textbooks dealt with 'knowledge about climate change' most frequently, yet the frequency of mentioning other competencies differed by publisher. In relation to the core concepts, the ACoCCs were most often discussed in the 'Management,' yet never discussed in the 'Life Design' at all. In relation to the academic sub-fields of home economics, the 'clothing life' showed the highest frequency of mentioning ACoCCs, while 'family life' the lowest frequency. Based on the results of the above analysis, it was suggested that the capacity to respond to climate change should be dealt with in the overall fields of home economics education. This study has implications as a basic study related to climate change in home economics education, and it is expected that various research and educational programs in home economics education that focus on climate change mitigation are implemented in the future.

The aim of this study was to develop a comprehensive home economics teaching-learning plan, following the stages of analysis, design, development, and evaluation. The focus was on the 2015 revised home economics curriculum, specifically the 'prevention of sexual violence,' to enhance students' digital literacy competencies. In the analysis stage, the necessity of developing digital literacy competencies was confirmed by analyzing the 2022 revised national curriculum. Extracting elements from the 2015 revised home economics curriculum and textbooks, a digital tool utilization plan was designed in the subsequent design stage, aligning with learning goals, content composition, and digital literacy competency for each class. The development stage involved creating teaching-learning materials and digital tools for six sessions, centered around the topic of 'prevention of sexual violence.' In the evaluation stage, six content experts assessed the teaching-learning plans using a 5-point Likert scale and open-ended questions. The validity evaluation confirmed the effectiveness of the teaching-learning plans in improving middle school students' digital literacy competencies. Based on feedback from the experts, the plans for the six sessions were revised, with an additional session added, resulting in a total of seven sessions. It is envisioned that the home economics teaching and learning plans developed in this study can be implemented in home economics classes to foster students' digital literacy capabilities.

This study conducted a meta-analysis on the effectiveness of education for sustainable development (ESD) programs within home economics classes. Articles spanning from 2000 to April 2023 were sourced from the Korean Citation Index (KCI) using search terms such as 'environment', 'sustainable', 'ESD', 'green', 'ecology', and 'home economics' in conjunction with 'development', 'application', and 'effectiveness'. Out of the gathered articles, 41 were chosen for analysis. Using a random effects model, the overall effect size was measured at 0.51 (SE=.08), suggesting that ESD programs significantly enhance student achievement in home economics. Further analysis of the 62 effect sizes, categorized by research design, ESD area (society, environment, economy), content area, school level, and school location, revealed that the research design, content area, and school location functioned as moderating variables. The findings of this meta-analysis underscore the efficacy of ESD in home economics education. Additionally, this study paves the way for future research, highlighting the importance of integrating economic perspectives in ESD, such as sustainable production and consumption, corporate sustainability, and market economy within home economics classes.

This study analyzed the trends of home economics research in China by examining the distribution by period, keyword distribution, distribution of researchers, citation frequency, and distribution of research institutions. For this purpose, data collected from CNKI, spanning from 1984 to 2022, resulted in 149 articles selected for final analysis. The analysis conducted using CiteSpace for the bibliometric research method yielded the following results: Firstly, a significant amount of home economics research was conducted between 2018 and 2022, with a notable increase in research in 2015 and 2020. Secondly, the analysis of keyword distribution showed that research centered around home economics education, home economics philosophy, etc., was active, and various research areas formed clusters. Thirdly, the major contributors to China's home economics research were Li, Xiong, Xia, and Wu, who mainly conducted independent research. The research by Li (2006) had the highest citation frequency, and Jilin Agricultural University published the most research among the institutions. This study indicates that despite quantitative growth due to social changes, China's home economics research lacks diversity and consideration of research outcomes. Therefore, participation from scholars, practical application of the discipline, increased government support, and cooperation for future comprehensive and qualitative research are necessary.
