  • The purpose of the study is to analyze and compare the primary science curricula of Korea, China, and Japan. Science textbooks for Korea and China and national science curriculum guides for Korea and Japan were analyzed in terms of the scope and sequence of the topics. The number of primary science topics dealt with is greatest in China, followed by Korea, then Japan. In addition to the wide range of topics, the Chinese curriculum also shows more in-depth coverage of topics. On the contrary, the Japanese curriculum has the least number of topics and shallowest depth of coverage. Korea seems to be in the middle between China and Japan. The similarities of the curricula in these East Asian countries is greatest between Korea and China. and the least between China and Japan. The similarities between Korea and Japan is somewhere in the middle. Korean primary science curriculum shows a comparatively even distribution of topics across grades. A relatively smaller number of sub-topics are introduced at each grade level, especially in the area of earth science and physics. On the contrary, in the Chinese curriculum, sub-topics tend to be concentrated at a certain grade level, thus major topics are dealt with in a grade or two. The Japanese science curriculum has fewer topics than those of the other countries, and generally one or two sub-topics appeared in a grade or two.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the content relevance of the 7th national primary science curriculum and textbooks. To fulfill the purpose of the study, we 1) analyzed the 7th national science curriculum of Korea, Californian science standards, the national science curriculum of England and Japan, and current Korean and Japanese science textbooks, 2) conducted a nationwide survey to gather opinions from students, teachers, and professors of teachers colleges about the relevance of the science curriculum and textbooks. Main findings of this study are as follows: First, the science contents at each grade level should be determined by the students' characteristics, not by an equal portion rule among physics, chemistry, biology and earth science. Second, the excessive overlapping and repetition of contents due to the spiral curriculum should be avoid. Third, the number of topics at each grade level should be reduced, and the similar topics and themes should be integrated for students' deeper understanding. Fourth, the number of science concepts and activities should be reduced to an appropriate level considering the time allotment for science classes, teachers workload, laboratory conditions, etc. Fifth, differentiated curriculum, such as in-depth and supplementary course, should be described not in science contents, but in teaching and learning strategy.

  • Primary school is regarded as an important period when many health-related behaviors and life-styles begin to be formed. Acquiring them through school heath education has a strong influence on the health promotion of not only the family but also the community. Primary school health education in Korea has a systematic flaw in that health-related subjects are divided and taught under various subjects in primary school. In order to develop a proper school health curriculum, it is essential to assess what is currently being taught. In this study the current health education of the 6th grade primary curriculum was investigated to improve school health education. The purpose of this study is to identify the health education contents and time in textbooks of the 6th grade primary school curriculum. In this study, the textbooks & teacher's teaching manuals of the 6th grade curriculum were analyzed with a health instruction framework for Korean schools developed by the Korean Nurse Association & Korean School Health Education Association in 1993 and health care framework for health education curriculum presented by Kim in 1991. The results are as follows ; 1) Health education hours of the curriculum are 206 hours, about 34.3 hours a year. 2) The contents of health education were divided into nine subjects at primary schools. Organizing principles of learning experience(eg, integrity, sequence and continuity) were not considered sufficiently. The physical education & natural science subjects include a lot of health education contents. 3) The major content areas are community & environmental health areas and daily healthy life areas. 4) The major areas at each grade level are daily healthy concerns and safety & first-aid 5) The remarkable contrast to the 5th primary school curriculum are that environmental health is offered to the first grade step by step, and that drug use & abuse and mental health education are included in the 6th primary school curriculum. 6) The main contents of health education in 1st, 2nd. and 3rd grade curricula consist of treatment & recovery health functions. Those of the 4th grade curriculum consist of treatment & recovery health functions, and daily healthy life functions. Those of the 5th grade consist of growth & development functions. Those of the 6th grade consist of treatment & recovery health, growth & development functions. Most health care functions belong to physical health care. The results above suggest that we put together the divided contents of health education and manage them on the basis of systematic integration.

  • 지식정보사회에서 국가 경쟁력의 핵심이 IT에 있지만 학교교육에서 컴퓨터교육을 체계적 체제적으로 실천하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 국가수준 교육과정이 문제로 보이는 이와 같은 현상은 단순히 행정적인 혹은 정책적인 지원의 문제에만 귀결되는 것은 아니다. 즉, 컴퓨터교과의 교육내용에도 많은 문제가 내재해 있다. 컴퓨터교과의 이와 같은 문제는 학교급간의 교육과정 연계에도 적지 않은 문제를 야기 시켰다. 본 연구는 이와 같은 학교급간의 교육과정 연계 실태를 분석하고 향후 교육과정이 어떻게 개정되어야하며, 학교급간 교육과정이 어떤 연계 체제를 취해야 하는지에 대해서 제안하고 있다. 본 연구는 향후 컴퓨터교육이 IT 유창성 교육(컴퓨터 과학교육)을 지향해야하며, 컴퓨터교과의 정체성에 입각한 교육내용의 편성 연계가 필요하다는 결론을 내렸다.

  • 초 중등학교에 있어서 교육과정은 교육의 핵심이다. 교육과정은 교육의 목적과 목표, 교육내용, 교육자료 및 교수-학습방법을 규정한 종합적인 교육계획이다. 우리나라를 비롯한 많은 국가에서는 초 중등학교 교육을 위한 국가수준의 교육과정을 마련하고 있다. 우리나라의 경우에는 국가수준의 교육과정은 10차례에 걸쳐 개정한 바 있으며, 현재는 '2015 개정 교육과정'을 적용하고 있다. 한편, 한국도서관협회에서는 2007년에 초 중등학교의 정보활용교육을 위해서 '도서관과 정보생활' 교육과정을 개발하였다. 그러나 이 교육과정은 국가수준의 교육과정인 '2007 개정 교육과정'에 근거하고 있어서 현행 '2015 개정 교육과정'의 구조와 내용체계와는 차이가 있다. '도서관과 정보생활' 교육과정은 '2015 개정 교육과정'의 구조와 내용체계에 맞추어 개정할 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 '2015 개정 교육과정'과 '도서관과 정보생활' 교육과정을 비교, 분석한 후에 '도서관과 정보생활' 교육육과정의 개정 방향을 제안하였다.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine whether or not they have been revised corresponding to the purpose of revision by making a comparative analysis of the content and illustration in the 6th and 7th primary science textbooks. The analysis of content was composed of knowledge, inquiry process and attitude. The analysis of illustrations was composed of the kinds of illustrations and the role of illustrations. The findings of this research were as follows: First, as a result of content analysis of the primary science textbooks in the 6th and the 7th national curriculum, the ratio of inquiry process showed the highest frequency, next knowledge and lastly scientific attitude. And the 7th textbooks are greatly emphasized knowledge and science attitude. Second, as a results of the illustration analysis are as follows: There are conspicuous differences in that the illustration number of the 7th science textbooks Is about twice the illustration number of the 6th science textbooks and next, they place more weights on pictures and comics hard to discovery in the 6th science textbooks. Therefore, they have tried to induce the interests of students and heighten their understanding by supplementing the role of illustration presented as picture-centered and increasing its number presented as picture. In the results, although they have improved the problems of the 6th national curriculum a lot through the innovation including the interest induction of pupils through comics, the development of its content presentation method, the gradual change of subject number and the cultivation of curriculum according to the level of enrichment and supplementing types, the 7th science textbooks have fallen short of 6.3%, not around 30% in terms of the reduction in the 7th national curriculum. Accordingly, the 7th science textbooks also can be pointed out to have the problems of too much amount of studying compared to the time per week like the 6th science textbooks.
