초록

21세기가 요구하는 다면적이고 복합적인 역량을 갖추게끔 학생들을 교육하는 것은 대학의 의무 중의 하나이다. 따라서 학과의 전공과목과 연계하여 다양한 역량이 배양될 수 있도록 하는 노력이 필요하다. 본 연구는 이런 노력의 하나로 '비즈니스 영어' 전공과목에 문제중심학습을 적용하였다. 학생들이 문제중심학습을 수행하면서 인식하는 학습 경험에 초점을 맞추어 자기평가 형태의 설문조사를 실시함으로써, '비즈니스 영어' 수업에 문제중심학습을 적용시키는 것의 유용성을 탐색해보고자 하였다. 조사 결과를 분석한 결과 다음의 세 가지를 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 문제중심학습 상황에서 직업기초능력에 해당되는 핵심역량이 배양될 가능성이 높았다. 둘째, 비즈니스 전문지식 습득과 영어 학습에 긍정적 영향을 끼쳐 학업성취에 있어서도 유용한 효과를 나타낼 수 있는 것으로 보였다. 셋째, 문제중심학습에 대한 학생들의 만족도는 보통 이상이었다. 본 연구는 특수목적영어인 '비즈니스 영어'에 문제중심학습을 도입하여 학업성취와 더불어 다양한 핵심역량의 증진 가능성을 보여주었다는 데 의의가 있다.

This research aimed to investigate the benefits of incorporating Problem-Based Learning(PBL) approach in Business English classes in a Korean university. This study focused on student experiences of learning in a PBL environment. The study examined the feasibility of cultivating students' key job competencies, that of their learning achievement and their satisfaction with the PBL approach. Data on student experiences were gathered from questionnaires. The analysis of the data showed, first, that the PBL could cultivate students' key job competencies. Second, the PBL could have a positive effect on students' acquisition of business content knowledge and their English language development. Third, the PBL approach achieved above moderate level of student satisfaction.
