Abstract

This study was designed to analyze the types of concepts about earth science related to seasonal changes, so as to develop a generative learning model focused on dissolving cognitive conflicts between the aforementioned concepts through debates and using said debates to find out how effectively the model works. There are 100 types of earth science concepts concering seasonal changes, 66 of which are unscientific in nature, including misconceptions. Through a second field trial and a research and development (R&D) process, a test on these concepts was developed, consisting of 14 items. For the experimental group, a four-phase generative learning strategy that reflects the types of earth science concepts and cognitive conflicts between such concepts was developed through pre-analysis and discussion, respectively. On the other hand, a traditional teaching and teaming strategy was used for the control group. A meaningful statistic gap found between the two groups through a covariance analysis, the significance level of which was 0.05. This result may be interpreted to mean that the generative teaming strategy is a possible alternative for correcting misconceptions about scientific concepts of seasonal changes.

본 연구에서는 계절 변화에 관련된 개념 유형을 분석하고, 관련 개념들에 관한 토의에 의해 인지갈등을 해소하는 방법을 강조한 발생학습 전략의 적용 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 계절변화 관련 지구과학 개념 유형은 100가지 였으며, 그 중에서 66가지는 오개념을 포함한 비과학적 개념 유형이었다. 계절변화에 관련된 개념 평가도구는 R&D과정과 2번의 현장검증을 거쳐 개발되었다. 실험집단에는 지구과학개념 유형과 인지갈등을 반영한 4단계의 발생학습 전략을 적용하였다. 한편 통제집단에는 전통적인 교수 학습 전략을 적용하였다. 유의수준 .05에서 공변량분석을 실시한 결과 두 집단 간에는 유의미한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과는 계절변화와 관련된 오개념을 지구과학적 개념으로 변화시키는 데 발생학습전략이 하나의 가능한 대안이 될 수 있음을 의미하는 것으로 볼 수 있다.
