초록

국내외 연구결과들에 의하면 좋은 수업의 공통적 특징 중의 하나는 다양한 수업방법이다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 수업방법을 도입하여 '비즈니스 전공영어' 수업을 좋은 수업으로 만들기 위해 교수설명, 그룹활동 및 발표, 단어퀴즈, reading comprehension, 숙제 및 시험에 대한 피드백이 수업활동으로 활용되었다. 2015년과 2016년에 '비즈니스 전공영어' 수업을 수강한 3학년 39명 학생들을 대상으로 수업활동에 대한 학생들의 인식에 대해 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사를 분석한 결과 다음 사실들을 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 학생들이 가장 선호하는 수업활동은 교수설명이었다. 둘째, 텍스트 내용 이해와 영어구문 이해에 가장 도움이 된다고 학생들이 인식하는 수업활동은 교수설명이었다. 셋째, 그룹 활동 및 발표에 대한 선호도는 높지 않았으며, 텍스트 내용 이해와 영어구문 이해에 가장 도움이 안 되는 수업활동으로 인식하고 있었다. 이러한 설문조사 결과는 영어문장 구조의 정확한 파악에 미숙한 조사대상자 학생들은 텍스트 내용의 확실한 이해를 위해 영어문장 구조에 대한 교수의 명확한 설명을 필요로 한다는 것을 보여 준다. 즉 영어수업의 경우 학생들이 선호하며 도움이 많이 된다고 인식하는 수업활동은 교과목의 특성과 학생들의 영어능숙도와 관련이 있다는 것을 시사해 주었다.

According to domestic and foreign research, one of the common characteristics of good teaching is a variety of class activities. To make 'Business Major English' a good class, the researcher used a variety of class activities such as professor explanation, group activities & presentation, vocabulary quizzes, reading comprehension, homework and test feedback. The participants were 39 junior students who took 'Business Major English' in 2015 and 2016. Data on student perception were gathered from questionnaires. The analysis of the data showed, first, that the class activity the students preferred the most was professor explanation. Second, the class activity which was the most helpful in understanding text content and English sentence structures was professor explanation. Third, there were not many students preferring group activities & presentation and the students found group activities & presentation the least helpful in understanding text content and English sentence structures. Given the results, this study implies that for English class activities, students' preferences and the help they perceive have a relation to the characteristics of a class and students' English proficiency.
