공업계열 전문계 고등학교 화공 분야의 STEM 교육에 대한 화공교사의 인식과 요구 = The Recognition and Needs of Chemical Industry Teachers about STEM Education of Chemical Industry area in Industrial Technical High School

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to survey and analyze the recognition and demands of chemical industry teachers for STEM education of Chemical Industry area in Industrial Technical High School and mail surveys were conducted for 373 chemical industry teachers at 45 schools offering chemical industry courses across the nation. The following were found results of the study were as follow:First, although chemical industry teachers understood positively the necessity of STEM education, they showed low levels of recognition on STEM education.
Second, the rate of the chemical industry teachers who had experience in applying STEM education was low. The biggest difficulty in applying STEM education was due to a lack of STEM education programs, followed by the difficulty in preparing STEM educational materials, and a lack of instructional methods for STEM education.
Third, chemical industry teachers required to improve fundamental ability, enhance job skills, education closely related to real life, and interesting education according to the direction for STEM education.
Fourth, chemical industry teachers demanded unit operation, followed by process control, manufacturing chemical, industrial chemical, and chemical analysis with regard to the contents to study STEM education.
Fifth, chemical industry teachers asked for the integration centering activities related real life, followed by the integration focusing on thema related to real life, the integrating centering student's needs and interests, and the integration focusing on issues according to the appropriate integration methods for STEM education.
Sixth, chemical industry teachers required creative design/problem solving ability, followed by fundamental ability, job skills, and interpersonal relationship skills with regard to the ability to develop through STEM education.
Lastly, chemical industry teachers demanded the development and distribution of STEM education, teacher's recognition and attitudes towards STEM education, teacher's training for STEM education, the distribution of reference materials and etc in order to stimulate STEM education.

이 연구는 공업계열 전문계 고등학교 화공 분야의 STEM 교육에 대한 화공교사의 인식과 요구를 조사· 분석하기 위해 수행된 것으로, 전국에서 화공 분야 학과가 설치된 45개 학교에 재직 중인 373명의 화공교사를 대상으로 우편조사를 실시하였다, 연구결과는 다음과 같다.
첫째, 화공교사는 STEM 교육의 필요성에 대하여 긍정적으로 공감하고 있었으나 STEM 교육에 대한 인식은 전반적으로 낮았다.
둘째, STEM 교육을 적용한 경험이 있는 화공교사의 비율이 매우 낮았다, STEM 교육 적용에 대한 어려움은 STEM 교육프로그램이 없기 때문으로 인함이 가장 높았으며, STEM 교육 자료 준비의 어려움, STEM 교육에 대한 이해 부족, STEM 교육 실현을 위한 교수-학습 방법 부족 순으로 나타났다.
셋째, 화공교사는 STEM 교육의 교육방향에 대하여 기초능력 향상, 직무능력 향상, 현실생활과 밀접한 관련이 있는 교육, 흥미 있는 교육 순으로 요구하였다.
넷째, 화공교사는 STEM 교육을 위해 연구해야할 내용에 관하여 단위조작· 공정제어, 제조화학, 공업화학, 분석화학 ·순으로 요구하였다.
다섯째, 화공교사는 STEM 교육에 적합한 통합 방식에 관하여 현실생활과 관련한 활동 중심의 통합, 현실생활과 관련한 주제 중심의 통합, 학생의 필요와 흥미 중심의 통합, 문제 중심의 통합 순으로 요구하였다.
여섯째, 화공교사는 STEM 교육을 통해 함양해야 할 능력에 관하여 창의적인 설계/문제해결 능력, 기초능력, 직무능력, 대인관계 능력 순으로 요구하였다.
마지막으로 화공교사는 STEM 교육 활성화를 위해 STEM 교육프로그램 개발 및 보급, STEM 교육에 대한 교사의 의식과 태도, STEM 교육에 대한 교사 연수가, 참고자료 보급 등이 이루어져야 함을 요구하였다.
