국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 4년제와 3년제 치위생(학)과 학생을 대상으로 한 학과 만족도의 분석을 통해 급격히 증설된 4년제에 대한 교육과정, 실습, 시설 등의 개선을 위한 기초자료로 활용하기 위해 수행되었다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 치위생(학)과 만족도 수준은 5점 만점 중 3.18로 보통인 것으로 나타났다. 2. 학제별 치위생(학)과 만족도는 4년제 수도권이 지방이나 3년제에 비해 낮았다. 3년제 학생이 4년제 학생보다 교육과정 만족도에서 높았으며(t=2.03, p<0.05), 4년제 학생은 3년제 대학 학생보다 교육시설 만족도 (t=-4.12, p<0.001)와 대인관계 만족도가 높았다(t=-3.07, p<0.01). 3. 3년제의 경우 교육시성 만족도에서 수도권 대학이 높았으나(t=5.28, p<0.001), 나머지는 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 4. 4년제는 교육과정(t=-5.39, p<0.001)과 교육시설(t= -5.18, p<0.001) 및 치위생(학)과 만족도(t=3.98, p<0.001)에서 지방 대학이 수도권 대학보다 높았다. 치위생(학)과 만족도에서 수도권 4년제의 경우 특히 교육과정에서 지방이나 3년제에 비하여 현저히 낮은 만족도를 보인 바 4년제에 맞는 교육과정의 개발이 필요한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 교육시설적인 측면에서의 보완도 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

This study was conducted to utilize as the fundamental data for the improvement in curriculum, practicum programs and educational facilities of four-year universities with dental hygiene department which have increased rapidly by through analyzing the satisfaction level of dental hygiene students in four-year and three-year colleges with their departments. The findings of the study were as follows: 1. The satisfaction level with their department of dental hygiene students who were surveyed was 3.18 out of possible five points, which was on the average. 2. As for satisfaction level with the departments by educational system, the students who were in four-year colleges in the metropolitan area expressed lower satisfaction than the students who were in local and three-year colleges. The three-year college students were more gratified with the curriculums than the four-year college students(t=2.03, p<0.05), and the latter was more satisfied with the educational facilities(t=-4.12, p<0.001) and interpersonal relationships(t=-3.07, p<0.01) than the former. 3. In the case of the three-year college students, those whose colleges were located in the metropolitan area were more contented with the educational facilities(t=5.28, p<0.001), and there were no significant differences in satisfaction level with other factors. 4. In the case of the four-year college students, the local college students were more contented with the curriculums(t=-5.39, p<0.001), educational facilities(t=-5.18, p<0.001) and the departments(t=-3.98, p<0.001) than their counterparts in the colleges located in the metropolitan area. In terms of satisfaction level with the department of dental hygiene, the four-year college students located in the metropolitan area expressed noticeably lower satisfaction with the curriculums than the local and three-year college students. As a result, the development of each curriculum which is suitable for the four-year course is required, and so is the improvement in the educational facilities as well.
