이봉우,김희경 한국물리학회 2018 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.72 No.12

The purpose of this study is to examine the trends of physics education research in Korea over the past 10 years in order to diagnose the present state of physics education and to suggest directions for the research in physics education. For this purpose, we conducted content analysis and network analysis for 341 physics education papers published in NPSM and JKASE for 10 years from 2008 to 2017. As a result, physics education researches were mostly conducted to diagnose the students’ physics conceptions, followed by to develop experiments, teaching strategies, and to analyze the curriculum and textbooks. As for the research subjects, the researches on the secondary school students were the most, and the studies on the university physics education were relatively few. Especially, since the study of university physics was focused on the concept of mechanics and electromagnetics, it was not enough in diversity of theme in comparison with the study of secondary school physics education in which various researches such as inquiry or teaching strategy were done. It was also difficult to find policy research that can guide the direction of improving various issues facing physics education. Based on the results, we discussed the implication for the future physics education research.

이경호,김홍빈 한국물리학회 2019 새물리 Vol.69 No.8

We are living in a rapidly changing age of science. We need to have a deep interest in and do active research on the identity of science education, which explores what science is and how scientific knowledge relates to our lives. In this research, we tried to develop a new physics education course for helping pre-service teachers to form their own identity. Research questions were as following: (1) How did pre-service teachers’ understanding of physics education change through the course? (2) How did Einstein’s TheEvolutionofPhysics (EoP) affect their understanding of physics education? Participants were 11 undergraduate students in Seoul who took the course in 2018. Research results are as following: (1) At the beginning, most of the pre-service teachers understood physics education as an unidirectional transmission of knowledge about physics. Meanwhile, by the end of the course, their understanding had changed to a new understanding: physics education is a mode of human activity that explores nature and seeks an understanding of nature and human beings based on the knowledge system of physics. (2) Most of the pre-service teachers learned the authenticity and practicality way of physics education through the book. 세상의 많은 것들이 빠르게 변화하는 과학기술시대를 살아가는 우리는 과학이 무엇이며, 과학지식이 우리삶과 어떠한 관계가 있는지 등을 탐구하는 과학교육학의 정체성에 대하여 깊은 관심과 적극적인 연구가필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 새로운 물리교육론 강의를 개발하여 예비물리교사들이 자신의 전공 정체성을 형성하도록 돕고자 하였다. 구체적인 연구문제는 다음과 같다. (1) 새로운 수업을 통해 예비교사들의물리교육학에 대한 인식은 어떻게 변화하였는가? (2) 수업에서 아인슈타인의 The Evolution of Physics (EoP)는 예비교사들의 물리교육학에 대한 인식변화에 어떠한 영향을 주었는가? 본 연구에는 서울 소재사범대학 물리교육과에서 2018년 1학기에 개설된 물리교육론 강의를 수강했던 물리교육 전공 학부생 11명이 참여하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 학기 초에, 대부분의 예비물리교사들은 물리교육학을 기존의물리학 지식체계를 전달하는 것에 관한 학문으로 인식하였다. 그러나 학기말에 그들 대부분은 새로운 인식즉, ‘물리교육학은 물리학의 지식체계를 바탕으로 자연을 탐구하여 자연과 인간을 이해하고 세상을 이롭게하는 인간활동의 양태’로 변화하였다. (2) EoP를 통해 많은 예비물리교사들은 물리교육학만의 고유성과구체적인 실천방안을 배울 수 있었다.

유창완 ( Chang-wan Yu ) 한국스포츠정책과학원(구 한국스포츠개발원) 2018 체육과학연구 Vol.29 No.3

[목적] 본 연구는 2015 개정 고등학교 체육과 선택과목에 대한 일반 고등학교의 체육교사들의 인식과 학교별 선택 과목의 편성 현황을 살펴봄으로써 고교학점제에 대비한 향후 고등학교 체육과 선택 과목의 방향을 탐색하고자 한다. [방법] 설문 조사를 통해 체육교사들의 인식을 조사하였고, 총 65개 일반 고등학교 편성현황 사례를 조사하여 중점 계열 및 학기에 따른 개설 계획을 파악하였다. 결과는 빈도 분석을 실시하였다. [결과] 연구 결과는 첫째, 체육교사들은 과목 개설 취지는 잘 알고 있으나 일부 과목에 대해서는 과목의 성격정도만 알고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 체육 계열에 진학을 희망하는 일반고 학생들에게 필요한 전문 교과과목 개설에 대한 필요성은 낮았다. 체육 계열 진로에 따른 선택과목 선정 시 ‘체육에 대한 기본 소양’의 함양에 도움이 되어야 한다. 일반고 학생들은 체육 과목 선택 시 ‘관심과 흥미’를 가장 중요시 여겼다. 셋째, 중점 계열별로 체육 선택과목의 편성 계획 현황은 <체육>의 선택 비율이 가장 높았고, 대부분의 학교에서는 체육 이수단위를 10~12단위로 편성하였다. [결론] 본 연구의 결론은 고등학교 체육과 선택과목은 체육에 대한 사회적 요구와 학생들의 선호도를 충분히 반영할 필요가 있고, 체육 계열로 진학을 희망하는 일반 고등학교 학생들을 위한 체육과 선택 과목이 재구성되어야 한다. [Purpose] The purpose of this study is to investigate the direction of elective courses of high school physical education in preparation for high school credit system by examining the awareness of physical education teachers of general high school and the selection of elective courses by school for elective courses of 2015 revised high school physical education. [Methods] We surveyed the perceptions of physical education teachers through questionnaires and examined cases of the current status of 65 general high school programs, The results were analyzed by frequency. [Results] The results of the study are as follows: First, physical education teachers know the purpose of the course, but they know only about the nature of the subject for some subjects. Second, There was little need to open specialized subject courses for general high school students wishing to enter the physical education field. It should be helpful to cultivate 'basic skills for physical education' in selection of elective subject according to the course of physical education. Students in general high schools regarded ‘attention and interest’ as the most important factor when selecting physical education subjects. Third, the selection schedule of physical education elective courses was the highest in < physical education >, and in most schools, 10 to 12 units of physical education degree were organized. [Conclusions] The conclusion of this study is that the high school physical education elective subjects need to fully reflect the social needs of the physical education and students' preferences, and the physical education and elective courses for general high school students wishing to enter the physical education department should be reconstructed.

The purpose of this study is to research present situations and the awareness of physical education specialist and to analyze the management realities of physical education specialist system of elementary school to provide suggestions to fix and improve an effective management system. The Questionnaire method was used for this research, and Questions were reconstructed with reference to the study of preceeding research data (Odujun, 1998 . Gimjungsaeng, 1999). The following conclusion were resulted from research data analysis. First, 12 elementary schools out of surveyed 15 schools have a physical education specialist system, however, it is not fully activated in the elementary school because schools tend to take this system regardless of the number of classes. Moreover, the working condition of physical education specialists is not good due to the heavy duty including supplementary classes besides physical education. According to the investigation on selection standard of physical education specialists, 50.0% of them were selected by the decision of principal or vice headmaster of school. Second, for the reason of which physical education requires special teacher's expert knowledge and function, the teacher who has a special skilled ability must take the exclusive charge of physical education to promote efficiency and to instruct students with an adequate guidance of physical education. Though many class teachers are in strongly need of physical education specialists for more effective physical education, some of class teachers avoid this system because of harder instruction than other subject instruction. Third, the biggest problem of physical education specialist system is that School personnel administrations tend to arrange physical specialists without having serious consideration of their talent and ability and lack of expert knowledge on physical education shows up another problem. The priority matters to improve this system are building a gymnasium, supplementation of equipments and facilities. Appeared that 54.5% of elementary school teachers have an opinion about appointing a qualified middle-high school physical education teacher to the physical education specialist of elementary school. Considering the training system and the device for demand and supply of the physical education specialists, established education systems are needed for which 1 teacher-1subject major and 1-subject minor subject of Art and Physical department and the research showed that National University of Education must select new students by each subject for training of physical education specialist.

전시체제하 일본의 국민학교 체련과(體錬科) 교육 ― 그 실제와 한계 ―

함예재 ( Ham¸ Yejae ) 이화여자대학교 이화사학연구소 2020 梨花史學硏究 Vol.0 No.61

On entering into the (Second) Sino-Japanese War in 1937, Japanese society turned into the war footing. The Japanese Army, long been prepared for the total war, has been concerned about physical strength of young conscripts thereby the issues of reduced physical strength of the public emerged from the physical examination for conscription. Japanese Army pointed out the Japanese education as one of the causes of reduced physical strength of the public and so does the Ministry of Education that took the issue as one of major problems to be resolved. Engaged the war, the educational system was revised by which the elementary education faced the sweeping change of an introduction of elementary school cultivating Japanese nationals in 1941. Children in the elementary school were out of subjects to be mobilized for the war however they were regarded and treated as young nationals as well as valuable human resources for the future. Thus, the measures to resolve issues associated with reduced physical strength were reflected in the course of education in elementary school, and in this context, the physical training education was intensified. The time assigned to the lessons for the subject of physical training in a week, which corresponds to the course of physical education in the elementary school, had increased almost twice with changes in contents and objectives of the education. Regarding the objectives of the lessons of the subject of physical training, the physical training, as well as spiritual exercising, intended for the intensification of national power and defense strength. That is, the subject of physical training mediated the connection between mind and body of students, by which the physical body of individuals was transformed into the physical body of nation. In the course of lessons, the subject of military arts was selected as one of regular courses thereby the ‘Spirit of Japan’ emerged and consequently resulted in the systematic rearrangement in contents of physical training. However, contrary to the objectives of education of national significance presented by the Ministry of Education, the ways of receiving educational courses in the actual education field exhibited limitations. The extensively enlarged objectives and complexity of contents in lessons for the education were regarded by teachers as estranging them from actual reality. Besides, the situation, lacking resources and foods, also limited the accomplishment of educational objectives of the enhancement physical strength through physical training and education. Consequently, the solution, for the issue of reduced physical strength which exerted the intensification of education of physical training in the background, was unavailable through employment of physical training and education.

인문,사회과학편 : 체육의 현재와 미래의 체육: 전문성 방향

이학준(HakJunLee) 한국체육학회 2007 한국체육학회지 Vol.46 No.1

체육학은 학문성과 전문성으로 구분되기 때문에 학문성과 전문성 어느 한쪽을 소홀이 대할 수 없는 중요한 부분임에는 틀림없다. 선행연구들이 체육학의 학문성 논의에 집중되었기 때문에 이 연구에서는 체육의 전문성 방향에 초점을 두었다. 이 연구의 목적은 첫째로 국내에서 체육의 전문성 변화추이를 고찰하여 체육의 전문성에서 가치지향의 변화를 알아보는데 있다. 둘째로 미래의 체육을 알아보기 위하여 체육에서 미래의 가치지향이 무엇인지를 탐구하는데 있다. 국내에 체육학과가 설립된 이후의 체육에서 가치지향의 변화과정을 자격증이라는 전문성에 한정하여 검토한 결과는 다음과 같다. 보건위생가치 지향 → 교육가치 지향(체육교사) → 사회가치 지향(생활체육지도자) → 경영가치 지향(스포츠경영관리사) → 복지가치 지향(스포츠복지사)으로 개념의 틀이 변화되어 왔고 앞으로 변화될 것이다. 체육개념은 고정 불변의 개념이 아니라 사회적 흐름에 따른 변화 그 자체라고 할 수 있다. 미래의 체육개념은 복지라는 핵심어로 대변할 수 있을 것이다. 행복추구권으로서 스포츠권리를 향유되어야 한다는 측면에서 복지체육을 주목할 수 있다. The purpose of this study was to identify concept of physical education by studying certification concerning physical education. The result of this study was following that. first, profession of physical education has been influencing profoundly on human life throughout the years. The concept of physical education has been gradually changed according to value oriented paradigm. It's have been change with hygienic paradigm → education paradigm → sport for all paradigm → management paradigm → welfare paradigm. The physical education concept of future will be focus the keyword which mean welfare. It seems so obvious that the concept of physical education is value oriented of hygienic, education, sport for all in today of physical education and physical education concept of future is welfare value oriented. It is argued in this study that concept of physical education is change itself according to the years. It will play a important role in future of physical education and affect concept of physical education in future.

The foreign university physical education is worthy of our reference and learning, but we need conduct in-depth thinking and designed according to the situation of national and university.

Measures to Improve Policy in terms of Human and Material Resource for Promotion of School Physical Education

( Chang Wan Yu ) 한국체육학회 2015 국제스포츠과학 학술대회 Vol.2015 No.1

Purpose: This study, which conducted the analysis of the direction of ``Promotion of school physical education`` of the current government, aimed to draw measures to improve and support policy in terms of human and material resource suiting to the direction of the policy. Method: To conduct analysis of the direction of policy to promote school physical education, this study collected basic data showing actual practice of the issue in general, and conducted questionnaire survey and interviews to review the policy based on multifaceted evidences. In order to examine the position of policy consumers, questionnaire survey was carried out among teachers and students regarding necessary human and material resource for promotion of school physical education, while interviews were done among a diverse range of physical education experts (academics, teachers and educational experts). Based on these, the study conducted multilateral analysis Result: In the prospective of implementation and support of policy to promote school physical education, reinforcement of teacher`s capabilities was found as the most crucial issue. Firstly, the study found that successful execution of policy to increase allocation of physical education teachers in elementary schools might need improving the environment of school physical education lessons, preparation of incentives to school physical education teachers, performing the training to secure their professionality. Secondly, policy to assist sports lecturers should include clear definition of their role and appropriate use of them, preparation of detailed work guide, request on government level`s assistance related with budget and administration, integration of sports lecturers-related work into the city/provincial education offices, and limits of their teaching field by differentiated lecturers` level according to their career and ability. Thirdly, in connection with material resource, since there were currently no proper connections made with the level and content as required by the policy, ways for more active cooperation should be sought. As ways to improve and support the policy, the study suggested several methods: there should be ways to use youth facilities and programs as well as financial assistance, for instance, via signing a MOU with sports organizations in local community; there should be an organization of ``School Physical Education Development Council`` (tentative name) inclusive of the government and related bodies to lead the linkage; there should be an exclusive body within the Ministry of Education to handle school physical education-related work. Conclusion: To improve the effect of policy to promote school physical education, teacher`s capability as the most important agent of school physical education must be strengthened, and for this there must follow more physical education teachers and strengthened educational capability in elementary schools. Along the way, the quality of sports lecturers must be enhanced together with improvement of their administration system. At the same time, school physical education policy must seek ways to extend financial assistance by collaboration with the school physical education-related sports organizations and community bodies.

육군사관학교 체육프로그램 현황분석 및 발전방향 탐색

김상우 육군사관학교 화랑대연구소 2011 한국군사학논집 Vol.67 No.2

The purpose of this study is to analyze the KMA's physical education program and explore it's future directions. This study is a qualitative research, by the way of a case study. The study period was eight months and commenced from January 2010. To collect data 3 methods were adopted: Class observation, open questionnaire, and in-depth interviews. As a pilot study literature on physical education programs of domestic and foreign military academies were analysed. Hence directions for the main study were identified. As the main research, class observations of five subjects were administered for 3 months, questionnaire from 3 professors and 20 cadets were collected and from among them in-depth interviews of 3 professors and 6 cadets were gathered. Data analysis were conducted through 'individual case histories' and 'inductive analysis category'. To ensure the validity of the research, peer consultation, member checking, and triangulation validation methods were used. Results of this study are as follows:First, the physical education program can be classified in to 5 main categories; ‘Physical Education', ‘Club activity', ‘Cadets' sports activities', ‘Physical fitness test, and ‘Sports events(sports festival)'. Second, cadets recognized the purpose of physical education program participation as a need to acquire physical fitness and motor skills, yet the professors recognized Physical Education Program as cultivation for various qualities necessary for officers. Third, the problems of physical education program were classified in terms of external and internal aspects. External aspects of the problems are 'Biased purpose', 'Narrow choices', and 'Institutional limitations'. Internal aspects of the problems are 'Non-passioned participation', 'Undifferentiated class', and 'inefficient management'. Fourth, the suggestion for future directions of physical education program were based on the problems illustrated. In respect to the external side there is a need for; 'realization of the greater benefits of Physical Education Program ', 'expand the opportunity to choose', and 'improvement of institutional limitations'. On the inner aspect; 'enhancement of educational objectives for cadets', 'creative teaching methods', and 'effective classroom management'. In conclusion, KMA's physical education program bears potential to foster a holistic education. Therefore PE ought to aim for a holistic education. At present, PE aims merely at attaining physical fitness and motor skills. However for future directions this study suggests for PE to nurture for a 'whole' person, educating character and moral development.
