초록

복지국가들은 사회복지를 위해 과학기술을 적극적으로 활용하고자 다양한 시도를 하고 있으며, 이러한 맥락에서 복지테크놀로지는 노인, 장애인 등을 비롯하여 일반 시민들의 삶의 질을 높이는 방향으로 활용될 수 있다. 이러한 측면에서 본 연구에서는 사회복지현장의 사회복지사들이 복지테크놀로지에 대해 어떻게 인식하고 있는지, 그리고 사회복지 분야에 복지테크놀로지를 어떻게 적용할 수 있을지, 향후 발전전망은 어떠한지 등에 대한 인식을 살펴보고자 하였다. 2018년 1월 한 달 간, 서울, 경기지역 사회복지관에서 근무하는 13명의 사회복지사를 대상으로 초점집단인터뷰를 실시하여 자료를 수집하였고, 수집된 자료에 대해 주제분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과, '복지테크놀로지의 개념', '복지테크놀로지의 필요성', '복지테크놀로지의 활용현황', '복지테크놀로지의 향후 전망'이라는 4개의 범주 및 12개의 하위범주, 24개의 개념이 도출되었다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 사회복지현장에서의 복지테크놀로지 발전 및 활성화를 위한 논의 및 제언을 하였다.

Welfare countries are making various attempts to actively use science and technology for social welfare, in this context, welfare technology can be used to improve the quality of life for not only the elderly and the disabled. The purpose of this study is to examine how social workers perceive welfare technology, how welfare technology can be applied to the social welfare field, and what future prospects are. In January, 2018, a focus group interview was conducted on 13 social workers of social welfare centers in Seoul and Gyeonggi provincial. Data were collected and thematic analysis was conducted. As a result of this study, four categories and twelve sub-categories and 24 concepts were derived, namely, 'concept of welfare technology', 'necessity of welfare technology', 'utilization of welfare technology' and 'future prospect of welfare technology'. Based on the results of this study, I discussed and suggested for the development and activation of welfare technology in social welfare field.
