Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare by learner groups(K-12, geology-related majoring students, science teachers) how geologic fieldwork education cases in domestic and foreign papers for recent 20 years reflect the elements of inquiry in field geology. The total number of analyzed cases is 53(58 for double counting), and the analysis was conducted on the elements of inquiry in field geology and their sub-element. As a result, there was a clear difference between the cases of geologic fieldwork education for K-12 and college students majoring in geology-related disciplines, in the way of reflecting elements of inquiry in field geology. Because most of K-12 target fieldworks were designed based on the curriculum, it mainly included 2-3 elements of observations, representations, and/or abductive reasoning. On the other hand, because fieldworks for geology-related major students aim to train geologic experts, it diversely contained four or five of the elements of inquiry in field geology, including spatial thinking and diachronic thinking in a high proportion, and also frequently used activities that require specialized skills such as geological mapping. Fieldworks for science teachers were found to have mixed features of K-12 and geology-related major students. Considering the diversity of included inquiry elements, similarities with the activities performed by geologists, and the autonomy of learners, it was analyzed that geologic fieldwork for geology-related major students was more close to authentic geologic inquiry than fieldwork for others. Based on the results of this study, we suggested implications for improving geological fieldwork as authentic science inquiry.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 20년간 국내외 문헌에 나타난 지질 답사 교육 사례가 야외 지질학 탐구 요소를 어떻게 반영하고 있는지 교육 대상별로 비교 분석하는 것이다. 분석 대상 사례는 총 53건이며, 분석은 야외 지질학 탐구 요소 및 하위 요소에 대해 수행되었다. 분석 결과, 야외 지질학 탐구 요소 반영양상에서 초중고생 대상 지질 답사 교육 사례와 지질학 관련 전공생 대상 사례 간 명확한 차이가 드러났다. 초중고생 대상 답사는 주로 교육 과정에 기반하여 설계되었기 때문에 야외 지질학 탐구 요소 중 관찰, 표상, 귀추적 추론 중 2~3가지를 포함하는 경우가 많았다. 반면 지질학 관련 전공생 대상 답사는 지질 전문가 양성을 목적으로 하기 때문에 야외 지질학 탐구 요소 중 4~5개를 다양하게 포함하고 있으며 공간적 사고 및 통시적 사고의 비율도 높게 나타났고, 지질도 작성 등 전문 기술을 요구하는 활동이 자주 활용되었다. 과학 교사 대상 답사는 초중고생 및 지질학 관련 전공생 대상 답사의 특징이 혼합된 형태로 나타났다. 포함된 탐구 요소의 다양성, 지질학자가 수행하는 활동과의 유사성, 학습자의 자율성 등을 종합적으로 고려했을 때 지질학 관련 전공생 대상 답사가 다른 교육 대상의 답사보다 야외 지질학 탐구의 실제성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 이 연구의 결과를 바탕으로 참 과학 탐구로서 지질 답사교육의 활용을 위한 시사점을 제시했다.
