Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the aspects and characteristics of educational innovation planned and implemented at the university site targeting universities in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam, and to explore their limitations and tasks. For this purpose, we analyzed the contents of innovation strategy programs among the plans of 17 universities in the national innovation support projects in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam area. First, the university innovation strategy was divided into input, process, infrastructure, and other factors, and among them, the process factor was divided into education, research, and industry-university cooperation to examine the aspects and characteristics of innovation. As a result of the study, the aspects of university innovation at universities in Busan, Ulsan, and Gyeongnam were analyzed in the areas of education, research, and industry-academia cooperation. Characteristics of innovation were emphasis on convergence education, competency development, smart system foundation, introduction of innovative teaching and learning techniques, consumer-centeredness, and regional linkage. The limitations and tasks of university innovation revealed through the research are as follows. First, a specialized university innovation business structure should be prepared in consideration of the context of local universities. Second, established strategies with high innovativeness must be implemented and sustained, and consensus among members is required for this. Third, the innovation of universities should not mean the centralization of academics, and the role and efforts of universities as a research institutions should be improved. Fourth, it should not be overlooked that more important than the visible innovation strategy of university innovation is the education innovation that occurs directly to students as a result of the education effect.

본 연구의 목적은 부·울·경 지역대학을 대상으로 대학현장에서 계획되고 실행되는 교육혁신의 양상과 특징을 분석하고 그 한계와 과제를 탐색하는데 있다. 이를 위하여 부·울·경 지역 대학 17개교의 대학혁신지원사업의 2020년 사업계획 중 혁신 전략 프로그램을 질적 내용 분석하였다. 분석의 기준은 투입, 프로세스, 인프라, 기타 요인으로 프로세스 요인은 교육영역, 연구영역, 산학협력영역으로 나누어 혁신의 양상과 특징을 살펴보았다. 연구 결과, 부·울·경 지역 대학의 대학혁신의 양상이 교육과 연구, 산학협력 영역에서 분석되었으며 그 특징으로는 융복합 교육 강조, 역량개발, 스마트기반, 학습자중심 교수법, 학생맞춤형 지원, 지역연계로 나타났다. 연구를 통하여 나타난 대학혁신의 한계와 과제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 지역대학이 맥락을 고려한 특성화된 대학혁신의 사업구조가 마련되어야 한다. 둘째, 수립된 혁신성이 높은 전략들이 실행되고 지속될 수 있어야 하며 이를 위해서는 구성원들의 합의가 필요하다. 셋째, 대학의 혁신이 학문의 편중화를 의미해서는 안되고 연구기관으로서 대학의 역할 제고와 노력이 필요하다. 넷째, 대학혁신의 가시적인 혁신전략보다 더 중요한 것이 교육의 효과로 대학혁신은 궁극적으로 학생들에게 직접적으로 발생하는 교육의 혁신이라는 점이 간과되어서는 안된다.
