초록

본 연구에서는 과학의 본성을 진술하는 총 42개의 진술문 각각에 대해서 1년간에 걸쳐 과학의 본성 지도자료 46개를 개발하였다. 개발한 자료는 구체적인 과학적 상황에서 과학의 본성을 이해할 수 있도록 과학개념과 탐구기능이 포함되도록 하였다. 각 자료는 학생용 활동지와 교사용 안내서로 개발되어 현장에 직접 적용할 수 있는 형태로 개발되었다. 개발된 자료 중, 과학적 사고의 본성에 대한 11개 자료를 과학 영재 3명을 대상으로 시험 적용하였다. 시험 적용 결과, 난이도는 적절했으며, 학생들은 과학개념이나 탐구활동 경험보다는 과학적 사고 자체에 대해 배웠다고 반응하였고, 마찬가지로 과학적 사고 자체가 흥미로운 내용이었다고 보고하였다. 그리고 학생의 반응과 교사의 관찰로부터 과학적 사고의 본성 이해가 과학적 탐구활동을 보다 참답게(authentic) 수행하는데 도움을 줄 수 있다고 판단되었다. 또한 학생들은 과학적 사고의 본성 이해가 과학적 창의성 개발에도 도움을 준다고 하였으며, 그러한 반응이 이전의 이론적인 논의(박종원, 2007a)와도 일치하여 과학적 사고의 본성 이해가 창의력 개발 프로그램으로 활용할 수 있다는 시사점을 얻을 수 있었다.

In this study, 46 teaching materials for understanding the nature of science (NOS) were developed based on the 42 statements describing the NOS. Each teaching material involves scientific knowledge and scientific inquiry skills as well as NOS statements. Teaching materials consist of students' learning worksheets and teachers' guides. Among the materials, 11 materials for understanding the nature of scientific thinking (NOST) were applied to 3 scientifically gifted students. As results, the degree of difficulty was appropriate and students showed interests in scientific thinking rather than new concepts or inquiry activities involved in the materials. It was expected that understating the NOST would be helpful for conducting scientific inquiry in more authentic way. And similarly to the Park's (2007) theoretical discussions about the relationship between the NOS and scientific creativity, students actually responded that undertrading the NOST could help their creativity. Therefore, it was expected that teaching the NOST would be plausible elements for teaching scientific creativity.
