Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find the implications of Christian education on the relationship between the formation of faith and digital literacy in the Korean society, which is rapidly changing within the fourth Industrial Revolution today through critical conversations on educational contexts. Over the past decade, Korean society has lived in an era of rapid and radical change more than any other time through a new way of life called the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The Korean church is also facing the reality that it must fulfill its urgent mission to deliver the unchanging truth in an ever-changing era. With this in mind, this study (1) identifies digital literacy as an essential competency requested in the era of the fourth industrial revolution by examining the relationship with congregation's life as well as its definition and contents, (2) discovers educational rationale for the relationship between faith formation and digital literacy by applying educational context of Christian education with attention to the educational efficiency of digital literacy, and (3) finds educational implications of digital literacy by re-conceptualizing the contents, context, role of teachers and students, and evaluation in the context of Christian education. I hope that this study will help Christian education serve for the spread of the Gospel of Christ and the realization of the kingdom of God on this earth through digital media in the future more time-responsively and mission-practically.

본 연구의 목적은 오늘날 제4차산업혁명을 통해 빠르게 변화하고 있는 한국 사회에 있어서 신앙 형성과 디지털 리터러시 사이의 관계에 대하여 연구하고, 이를 통하여 발견 되어지는 디지털 리터러시의 기독교교육적 함의점을 찾아내기 위한 것이다. 지난 10년 동안 한국 사회는 새로운 삶의 방식인 제4차 산업혁명을 통해 그 어느 때보다도 빠르고 급진적인 변화의 시대를 살아왔다. 한국교회는 그 어느 때보다도 긴급하고 본질적인 사명인 변치 않는 진리를 변하는 세상속에 온전하고 합당하게 전해야 하는 현실앞에 마주하게 되었다. 이러한 점을 염두에 두고, 본 연구는 첫째, 제4차산업혁명에 필수적으로 요청되는 디지털 리터러시의 의미와 역사와 요청 되어지는 역량에 대하여 정리하고, 둘째, 기독교교육의 핵심개념인 신앙형성과 디지털 리터러시의 시대요청적인 관계를 확인하여 신앙형성의 구체적인 교육현장에 적용할 수 있는 가능성을 비판적으로 확인하며, 셋째, 디지털 리터러시를 기독교교육의 현장에 활용할 때 발견되어지는 기독교교육적 함의점들을 교육내용, 교육현장, 교사 및 학생의 역할, 그리고 평가적 재개념화를 통해서 찾고자 한다. 바라기는, 이 연구를 통하여 앞으로 기독교교육이 디지털 미디어를 활용한 보다 시대반영적이며, 사명실천적인 신앙형성의 사건을 지속적으로 세워가기를 기대한다.
