초록

본 연구는 현장 적용 2년차를 맞이하는 2015 개정 과학과 교육과정 운영 모니터링 연구의 일부분으로, 중학교 1, 2학년 수업을 담당하는 과학교사를 대상으로 과정중심평가 적용 실태와 어려움 및 효과성 등을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 과학교육 선도학교와 일반학교 과학교사들의 인식을 비교하기 위해 선도학교 교사 44명(41.9%), 일반학교 교사 61명(58.1%)을 표집하였으며, 최종적으로 전국으로부터 105명의 과학교사들이 설문에 참여하였다. 설문조사 후 교사 초점집단을 구성하는 16명의 중학교 과학교사들과 심층면담을 통해 과정중심평가에 대한 적용 실태와 어려움 등에 대한 의견을 수렴하였다. 주요 연구결과를 교육과정 개정에 따른 교사의 평가 방식 변화, 과정중심평가 현장 적용의 어려움, 과정중심평가의 효과에 대한 인식으로 제시하였다. 교사들은 교육과정에서 과정중심평가를 강조함에 따라 본인의 수업에서도 과정중심평가의 요소들을 반영하게 되었다고 인식하였다. 또한 기존의 평가방법에 비해 다양한 과정중심평가를 활용하는 빈도도 증가하였다고 응답하였다. 이와 같은 응답은 선도학교 교사들이 일반학교 교사들보다 통계적으로 유의미하게 높았다. 면담결과 중학교 과학교사들은 과정중심평가 적용의 어려움으로 과정중심평가 개념의 모호성, 과정중심평가와 순위를 정해야 하는 학교평가체제와의 충돌, 평가의 객관성과 신뢰도의 확보의 부담감, 개개인을 평가해야 하는 현실적인 업무 부담 등을 지적하였다. 그러나 과정중심평가를 적극적으로 활용한 교사들은 학생들의 성장을 관찰할 수 있다는 점에서 교육적으로 매우 효과적이라는 만족감을 나타내었다.

As a part of the second-year monitoring study on the implementation of the 2015 revised science curriculum in middle schools, this study focuses more on examining middle school science teachers' perceptions on the process-based assessment (PBA). A total of 105 middle school science teachers (44 teachers from science leading schools, 61 teachers from ordinary schools) responded to the survey questionnaire, and 16 teachers participated in interviews. The results include teachers' perceptions on the changes in their teaching and assessment methods, some challenges of implementing PBA, and educational implications of PBA. Survey results indicate that the teachers perceived themselves using more PBA methods after the 2015 revised science curriculum was launched. The teachers in science-leading schools present statistically higher average scores to the items on the PBA utilization than the ones in ordinary schools. However, the teachers felt confused in conceptually differentiating PBA from prior performance-based assessment. They also experienced some conflicts when implementing PBA under the achievement-oriented school atmospheres. In addition, they often faced difficulties in securing objectivity and reliability of PBA and felt the burden of evaluating individual students. This study suggests the necessity of giving more authority and trust to science teachers regarding PBA, constructing more supportive environment to cultivate teacher competency as evaluation experts, and the need to reduce task burden. However, some teachers who actively implemented PBA express some level of satisfaction as observing students' positive reaction to PBA.
