초록

본 연구를 통해 자석 및 자기장과 관련된 웹기반 과학학습 시뮬레이션들의 현황을 살펴보고, 시뮬레이션의 내용과 전략 및 디자인 측면에서 적절성을 평가하였다. 연구를 위해 과학학습 시뮬레이션 평가 기준을 고안하였으며, 초등교사 8명이 참여하여 자석 및 자기장 관련 시뮬레이션 14종을 평가 기준에 맞추어 평가하고 각 시뮬레이션의 특징을 기술하였다. 평가 결과를 바탕으로 시뮬레이션들을 상 그룹과 하 그룹으로 분류하였고, 상 그룹의 시뮬레이션에서 강점과, 하 그룹의 시뮬레이션에서 보완할 점들을 교수학습 내용, 교수학습 전략, 화면구성, 기술의 측면에 따라 분석하고 도출하였다. 연구 결과를 근거로 교수학습에 효과적인 자석 및 자기장 주제의 웹기반 시뮬레이션 개선을 위한 방안을 논의하였다.

This study is to review current state of web-based simulations for science learning about magnets and magnetic field, and evaluate the appropriateness of simulations in terms of contents, strategies and design. We designed a set of criteria for evaluating science simulations and applied it to 14 simulations about magnets and magnetic field. For the evaluation, eight elementary teachers participated and they described specific characteristics of each simulation according to the criteria. Based on the evaluation, we divided the simulations into two groups, excellent vs. normal groups. We analyzed strengths from the simulations in excellent group and weaknesses from the simulations in normal group according to the contents, learning strategies, screen format, and technical features. Implications for ways of improvement in developing web-based science simulations effective to science teaching and learning about magnets and magnetic field were discussed.
