Abstract

This study was started to find a way to activate the regional tour program of the Gwacheon National Science Museum, which covers a relatively wide area among public service organizations with the theme of science. In addition to the permanent exhibition program, the Gwacheon National Science Museum has been conducting tour programs in Gyeonggi and Gangwon Province since 2018 for residents in underprivileged regions who are unable to visit the Science Museum for geographic and environmental reasons, but it lacks awareness and effectiveness compared to other areas such as culture, welfare for the elderly, and education. As a result of the study, the first was an opportunity for a very special experience. The second was the joy of the few, A total of 3 upper units and 5 lower units were derived. This has positive effects such as increasing interest in science and expanding opportunities for experience. but it can be seen that it is urgent to supplement such as systematic promotion and improvement of the quality level of contents through professional artists.

본 연구는 과학을 주제로 한 공공서비스 기관들 중, 상대적으로 가장 넓은 지역을 관할하고 있는 국립과천과학관의 지역순회프로그램 활성화 방안을 모색하고자 시작되었다. 국립과천과학관은 상설전시 프로그램 이외에도 지리적, 환경적 이유로 과학관을 직접 방문하기 어려운 소외지역 주민들을 위해 2018년부터 경기, 강원도 지역에서 순회프로그램을 시행하고 있으나 문화, 노인복지, 교육 등 타 분야에 비해 인지도와 효과가 미비한 실정이며 관련 연구도 전무한 실정이다. 연구 방법으로는 최근 3년 이내에 1회 이상 국립과천과학관의 지역순회프로그램 현장을 직접 방문한 경험이 있는 문화기획자 및 스텝, 과학&문화콘텐츠 전문가, 관련학과 교수 등 총 12명을 대상으로 3차에 걸쳐 FGI를 실시하였다. 연구결과로는 첫째 매우 특별한 체험의 기회 둘째 소수의 기쁨 셋째는 재미는 없지만 학습형 공연 등 총 3가지 상위 의미 단위와 5가지 하위 의미 단위로 도출되었다. 이는 과학에 대한 흥미성 제고, 직접 체험의 기회 확대 등 긍정적 효과는 돋보이나 체계적 홍보계획 필요, 전문예술인을 통한 콘텐츠의 질적 수준 보완 등 개선이 시급한 요소들이 도출되었다.
