Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the learning contents presented in high school science and in pre-service science textbooks of college of education, and to examine educational implications for pre-service science teachers by analysing their connection to each other. High school science is called as 'convergence science.' Seven high school science textbooks and eleven science textbooks related to physics, chemistry, biological science, and earth science for pre-service teachers were selected to analyse learning contents. The relationship between high school science with those of college-level science textbooks for pre-service science teachers was found when the learning contents were compared. Science textbooks for pre-service science teachers have the biggest number of learning contents on the chapter 'Energy and Environment' of high school science. About 86.6% of learning contents of high school science were introduced on textbooks on science, but pre-service teachers should learn the remainder. The part of learning contents presented in high school science textbooks was higher than the college-level for pre-service science teachers. Moreover, the part of learning contents was included in Engineering & Technology. And these required a special teacher education. Accordingly, the results suggested that learning contents for high school science should be optimized and reduced. Also, various educational programs should be developed and educational curriculum for pre-service science teachers should be revised.

본 연구의 목적은 고등학교 과학 교과에서 추출한 학습 내용과 사범대학 예비과학교사 교재에서 추출한 교육내용을 비교하여 그 연관성을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 소위 융합형 과학으로 불리는 고등학교 과학 교과서 7종과 물리, 화학, 생물, 지구과학 등 4개 과학 분야에서 사용하고 있는 11종 사범대학 예비과학교사 교재를 분석하였다. 고등학교 과학의 교육 내용과 예비과학교사 교재의 교육내용을 비교 분석한 결과, 관련성이 있는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 '에너지와 환경' 단원은 가장 많은 예비과학교사 교육내용이 포함된 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 전체 고등학교 과학 교과 내용의 86.6% 정도가 사범대학 4개 분야의 교재에 소개되고 있을 뿐 나머지는 예비교사들이 스스로 공부해야 하는 부담을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 심지어 일부 학습내용들은 그 내용 수준이 사범대학 예비과학교사 교육내용보다 높은 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 게다가 또 다른 일부 학습내용들은 공학과 기술 영역에 포함되어, 이를 대비하기 위한 별도의 교사교육이 필요하다. 위와 같은 내용을 종합했을 때, 고등학교 과학 교과의 교육내용을 적정화 할 필요가 있다. 또한 본 교과를 가르칠 교사와 예비교사들을 위해 다양한 교육 프로그램을 개발할 필요가 있으며, 예비과학교사들이 과학을 지도할 수 있도록 도울 수 있는 사범대학 교육과정이 개편이 필요하다.
