Transversal competences describe the aspects of the objectives that are emphasized in grades 7-9 and strengthens the connectivity with each subject. Thirdly, the objectives of home economics included in the instructions in Finland consist of a content system that links learning skills, content areas, and transversal competences. Both learning skills as a role of subject competences and content areas as objectives support teachers who restructure an curriculum.

  • This study focused on the investigation of objects and contents of environment-related chapters which were contained in the biology textbooks of middle school in the 5th curriculum, and in the 6th curriculum. As a result of objects analysis, cognitive domain such as the knowledge and information categories were allocated more than affective domain as skill, value and attitude, and behavior and participation. Compared with the 5th curriculum, the average-pages of environment-related chapters in the 6th curriculum were decreased. Environment-related chapters in the 6th curriculum also dealt negligibly with the real environmental problems in our country. Therefore the importance of the environment-related chapters of biology textbooks in the 6th curriculum was relatively deceased compared with that in the 5th curriculum. In considering the actual low optional rate of environment subject in middle school, it was thought that the reinforcing effect of environmental education can be hardly expected. Rather, the status of environment subject will grow weaker and weaker. Thus, in order to avoid the deterioration effect of its status and solve its problems, it is necessary to up-grade environment subject as obligatory course or needs strong reinforcement of environmental education.

  • This paper is to inquiry into the conceptual model of religious education in school curriculum focused on 7th revised curriculum, subject matter and teacher training system. We have to consider the related variables for the operation of school curriculum: student, school, teacher. In school curricula of Korea, religious education can be practiced as a elective course of subject, discretion activity and special activity, latent curriculum etc. And also it should be considered student's right of option and autonomy of private school, because at least those are the important variables effect upon the religious education in school curriculum. Now I'd like to abstract results of this paper as followed. First, it should be considered student's right of option for religious education in private school curriculum. But at this case, also under the name of education it should be justified precondition of purpose, content, approach method. If not, it easy to access to pejorative meaning as a religious indoctrination. Second, in case of conflict between student and school, I think that a proper method is to adjust the related variables. Third, if the purpose of religious education in school based on religiosity, it can be cover the understanding of religious culture, affectionate domain of religiosity, behavioral religiosity. Finally, in order to accomplish such an conceptual model of religious education in school, it should be set a condition for teacher training system, subject matter etc.
