Abstract
The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of the training program developed to enhance the democratic citizenship education competence of low-experienced social studies teachers through discussion and debate, and to derive implications for the development and implementation of teacher training programs for low-experienced teachers in the future. To this end, the analysis focused on the training program development process and content structure, and the responses of training participants. As a result of the analysis, the teachers who participated in the training gave a very positive evaluation of the training program. Not only was the satisfaction with the content and method of the lecture very high, but it was also highly evaluated in terms of its usability in work. The training instructors recognized that the logical arrangement of the training program was outstanding and that the satisfaction of training participants was high due to the training program being structured around activities and participation. However, they evaluated that the lack of training time, the lack of understanding of the participants’ needs and demands, and level difference between programs(courses) by the instructors’ individual capabilities needed to be improved. Based on these analysis results, field orientation, integration, and cooperation were presented as principles of improving the training system for low-experience social studies teachers and suggested implications for the development and operation of training programs based on this.
