This study investigates an undergraduate student's environmental club experience by employing a biographical research method. The informant has been member of the environmental club since he is a freshman. The purpose of this study is three points. First, which theoretical framework is suitable to explain the characteristics of environmental club experience ? Second, what is the characteristics of the informant's environmental club experience analysed by means of the theoretical framework ? Finally, what is the educational meaning of environmental club experience ? As a result, I find that environmental identity is very powerful framework to explain the characteristics of environmental club experience. Also, I explain the informant's environmental club experience as the formation of environmental identity by changes in three aspects. In the informant's life, cultural world of environment/environmental movement becomes salient which is closely connected with development of agency in the world and understanding how environmental problems can be solved. It is argued that environmental club experience has educational meaning in the studies and practices of environmental education, as follows. Environmental club experience has implications of redefining the goals of environmental education, and improving environmental problem solving learning. Finally, the informant's environmental identity is considered as reflexive identity which is formed through personal reflection of his experience.

이 논문의 주된 목적은 경험주의적 언어관을 지탱해 왔던 '언어-경험 대응'이라는 가정이 근원적으로 그릇된 것이며, 그 가정에 근거한 문자적 의미 또한 공허한 이론적 가정의 산물이라는 점을 밝히려는 것이다. 필자는 체험주의적 시각에 의존해서 언어가 기호의 체계이며, 따라서 그 의미 또한 기호적으로 주어질 수밖에 없다는 점에 주목했다. 기호적 경험의 구조에 대한 체험주의적 해명에 따르면 기표의 의미는 그것에 기호적으로 사상되는 경험 내용이다. 나아가 기호적 사상이 본성적으로 부분적이라는 것은 기표와 사상되는 경험 내용 사이에 본성적 괴리가 존재한다는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 괴리는 일대일 대응의 원천적 불가능성을 의미하며, 그것은 문자적 의미의 불가능성을 의미한다. 이러한 새로운 구도 안에서 언어적 의미에 대한 해명은 기호적 경험에 대한 해명의 일부가 되어야 한다. 여기에서 객관주의가 가정했던 객관성은 발견되지 않을 것이다. 그러나 언어는 여전히 소통 가능한 정도의 안정성을 드러내며, 우리는 그 안정성의 근거를 신체적이고 물리적인 경험의 공공성에서 찾을 수 있을 것이다.

From of old, labor has been accompanied by pain and much effort has been mode to eliminate or diminish the amounts of pain during labor. Little concern has yet been given to the subjective meaning of pain in labor. Recently, rates of cesarean section in Korea and in some other nations have increased rapidly and some investigators are reporting negative reactions such as anger, disappointment and feeling of loss due to lack of control over labor and its pain. These findings are thought to suggest that control of labor and its pain gives some meaning to the laboring woman. Thus the investigators sought to discover the meaning of pain during labor for Korean women. Specific objectives of this study were to explore the meaning of pain in labor to the mothers, their reactions to the experience of labor add their preference for delivery method. The subjects of this study were 95 mothers who delivered their babies in hospital from September 989 to May 1990 : 45 gave birth by vaginal delivery, and 50 by cesarean section. Data were gathered through direct interviews by the investigators, and questions were focused on five areas i.e. mothers' feelings about delivery and their babies, their feelings about of having more children, the most difficult aspect about this labor and delivery, and what they thought the differences were between vaginal delivery and cesarean section. After interview, mothers' answers were summarized, and classified according to the degree of positive or negative attitude. To ascertain the difference in meaning of labor pains and reaction to delivery experience between mothers delivered vaginally and by cesarean section a Median test was done using an SAS. Results were as follows. 1. More mothers who had delivered vaginally realized that they “have became a mother” than those who had a cesarean section(X$^2$＝8.409, df＝3, p＝0.038). 2. Immediate reaction to their delivery experience was more positive for mothers who had a cesarean section. 3. These Korean mothers expressed preference for vaginal delivery. Suggestions for further research on the meaning for mothers of their experience of labor, and on the meaning of pain for mothers who have a cesarean section were made.

This study aimed to discern the educational meaning of nature experience activity in a nonformal educational program in Korea, focusing on the interaction between a teacher and learners. To achieve this objective, an ethnographic research method was employed using an environmental educational program for children in a nonformal setting. The results of study are as followings. Firstly, the teacher's belief-"young ecologist" shaped its own characteristics of the program. Secondly, the children had a understanding that they learn something about nature(e.g. learning by seeing, dlscovering, recollecting, and awakening). The analysis of teachers' ideas and learners' attitude toward nature experience shows that there exists a gap between the teachers' expectations and the actual ecological changes in the learners' ideas. However, the educational meaning of nature experience can be understood by the unique type of interaction between a teacher and learners. In conclusion, on the basis of this study, it is suggested that educators should be aware of the fact that nature experience can conttribute significantly to the education of children not just from the encounter with nature but also philosophically with regard to our connectedness with nature. Bringing nature into educational contexts can help children to take part in thoughtful perspectives of learning and to devise their own appropriate nature experience.

본 연구는 중학교 체육교사의 교직 경험 의미 탐색으로서 체육교사의 교직 정체성을 토대로 교직 경험 관련 심층적인 진술을 듣고 그 안에서 발견되어지는 의미 있는 내용 탐색과 의미 구조를 분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구 참여자는 현직중학교 체육교사 4명이다. 연구방법은 Colaizzi의 현상학적 방법을 통해 연구 참여자의 심층 면담, 집단 면담, 추가 면담 및 현장 기록 등을 통하여 의미 구조를 분석하였다. 연구문제를 해결하기 위하여 면담은 반 구조화 면담(semi structured interview)으로 진행하였으며 교직 경험과 관련하여 중복 사례나 유사 현상 등의 내용이 더 이상 나오지 않았을 때 개인 면담은 종료하였다. 연구 결과, 연구 참여자들과의 면담을 통한 이야기 진술들을 토대로 경험 의미를 구성하였으며 구성된 의미에서 개념을 탐색하여 2개의 항목, 6개의 범주 및 12개의 주제 모음이 추출되었다. 교직으로 향하게 된 이유는 '동기'와 '신념'으로 범주화 되었으며, 교직 수행 경험 의미는 '임무', '관계', '고갈', '극복'으로 범주화 되었다. 결론적으로 연구 참여자들은 수많은 어려움도 있었지만, 학교라는 공동체 안에서 나눔의 기쁨과 가치를 추구하며 도전과 회복을 경험하고 있었다.
