다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Articulation education between technical high schools and 3-year colleges was launched as the Educational Reformation Committee proposed a plan to strengthen vocational education as a part of the 2^(nd) Educational Reform Plans on the 9^(th) of February 1996. Articulation education between technical high schools and 3-year colleges, which are representative vocational education institutions in Korea, was introduced by the Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development and has been continued until now. The present study purposed to analyze the basic contents of the Educational Reform Plans and to examine whether the plans would activate articulation education system by improving it in accordance with the original purpose of articulation education. The contents of research to attain the purposes are as follows.
First, this study investigated the background of the introduction of articulation education and its current state, and examined articulation education system in the U.S.
Second, this study identified problems in the operation of articulation education and analyzed the causes of the problems.
Third, based on the results of analyzing problems, this study looked for plans to activate articulation education.
There were a large number of literature analysis materials on the current operation of articulation education. Thus this study reviewed literatures such as reports from articulation education model schools, research materials related to articulation education from Korea Research Institute for Vocational Education & Training, theses from specialists' previous researches, publications on the Educational Reform Plans from the Educational Reformation Committee, government documents from the Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development, and laws and regulations in operation related to articulation education.
According to the result of this study, main problems in articulation education are as follows.
First, deviating from the original purpose of improving the efficiency and substantiality of vocational education by developing students' vocational abilities according to their aptitude and talents, articulation education turned into a means for 3-year colleges to recruit students and the method of articulation was limited to the organization of special classes.
Second, articulation between technical high schools and 3-year colleges was perfunctory. That is, there was no actual connection of educational curriculums, the organization and operation of special classes, sharing of facilities, etc. Third, it was found that although it is important to restructure the educational curriculums of technical high schools in accordance with students' level and abilities so that basic vocational education is carried out substantially in high school as the elementary stage of articulation education between technical high schools and 3-year colleges, the government's administrative and financial support had been concentrated on 3-year colleges and technical high schools failed to play a leading role.
Based on the results of investigation, this study looked for plans to improve articulation education and made the following suggestions to improve the operation of articulation education announced by the Educational Reformation Committee.
First, the basic direction of articulation education should be switched from supplier-centered to consumer (learner)-centered.
Second, the goals of articulation education should be redefined in the direction that learners' right to learn is practically guaranteed. If articulation programs are limited to specific major subjects it is hard to expect the effect of articulation education. Thus it is required to link basic subjects such as mathematics, science and language in order to enhance students' vocational abilities.
Third, as for the methods of articulation education, the autonomy of involved institutions should be guaranteed and the operational methods of articulation need to be diversified. For this, this study suggests that technical high schools should be fully autonomous in operating educational curriculums and selecting the contents of education by applying the autonomous school system or adding special provisions to the Elementary-Secondary Education Act and, based on this, that current articulation education support concentrated on 3-year colleges should be directed to technical high schools.
In addition, as it costs a huge amount of money to reorganize existing educational curriculums and to restructure the operation of schools, the government's support for articulation education should be expanded in the dimension of vocational education and individual schools must make the best efforts to utilize local resources.
This study attempted to find a macroscopic direction for the future of articulation education based on the background and the original purpose of the introduction of articulation education.
