초록

다양성과 관련된 문제는 글로벌 시대의 도래와 함께 사회 전반에서 매우 중요한 이슈로 다루어지고 있다. 이러한 이슈는 교육의 영역에서도 강조되고 있으며 역사적으로 교육적 혜택으로부터 소외되어 왔던 사회적 그룹들에 대한 신중한 고려가 요구되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 학교 내 다양성 문제를 해결하기 위한 미국의 사례를 구체적으로 소개하고 우리나라 교육에서 다양성 문제를 다루기 위해 적용할 수 있는 시사점에 대해 논의하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 미국 스미스소니언 과학교육센터의 프로그램 내용과 2019년-2020년도에 참여한 교사들을 대상으로 수행된 설문조사 결과를 구체적으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 해당 프로그램은 다양성과 관련된 문제에 대해 다양한 관점에 대한 경험을 제공하고, 문제 상황과 원인에 대해 그 의미를 심도 있게 다룰 수 있도록 지원하며, 목표와 실행 계획을 구체적으로 설정하고 결과 예상을 통해 평가 및 수정할 수 있도록 안내하는 등의 특징을 보였다. 이러한 특징은 참여자들에게 학습과 경험, 그리고 문제 해결을 위한 방향의 설정에 있어서 의미있는 효과를 보이고 있었다. 이러한 내용은 우리나라 교육이 현재 그리고 앞으로 직면하게 될 학교 내 다양성 문제를 다루기 위한 방안을 구상하는 데 있어서 매우 중요한 시사점을 제공한다.

Concerns related to diversity are important throughout society, especially in the context of expansive globalization. In education, diversity-related issues require careful consideration to ensure social groups that have historically been marginalized benefit from educational opportunities. In this study, we investigated a case from within the United States aimed at addressing diversity issues in schools and discuss the implications of this study in relation to diversity issues in Korea. More specifically, we examined the features of the professional development program designed and implemented by the Smithsonian Science Education Center, as well as survey results from teachers who participated between 2019-2020. Our findings revealed that the program provided participants context specific experiences, space and time to develop an in-depth understandings of the causes of diversity issues and supports to attend to the various perspectives needed to set specific goals and action plans and to examine, refine, and revise their plans. Further, features of the professional development program had meaningful effects on participants' learning experience as they were supported to identify useful proposals and take action to solve their specific diversity issues. The findings from this study offer important implications for designing professional development and organizing supports to address varied current and future diversity issues in Korean school contexts.
