‘나다움’을 찾아가는 과정에서 겪는 의복행동의 교육적 경험에 관한 연구

Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this study is to explore the experience process of learners who complete ‘myself’ and to reveal that the aesthetic experience sensed by learners in the process is an educational experience that helps the individual’s qualitative growth. Methods First, we explore clothing behavior as a process of finding ‘myself’ through theoretical consideration of John Dewey’s experiential philosophy of ‘an experience’ and educational experience. Second, by describing, analyzing, and interpreting clothing behavior based on ‘one experience,’ it helps understand the aesthetic experience for true clothing behavior that reveals ‘myself.’ Third, by revealing that the aesthetic experience of clothing behavior is what Dewey calls ‘an experience,’ we explore how the learner’s experiential process of completing his or her self through clothing behavior, which is interpreted as ‘an experience,’ is reborn as an educational experience. Results Educational experience as a clothing behavior is ‘an experience’ that promotes the overall and continuous growth and development of humans by not only promoting the process of understanding one’s identity but also immersing oneself in the process of discovering ‘myself.’ Conclusions By revealing that clothing behavior interpreted in light of Dewey's ‘an experience’ is an educational experience for discovering ‘myeself’, it differs from the conventional view that interprets clothing behavior as pursuing external beauty by focusing only on physical appearance. Provides an alternative logic for approach. It is meaningful in attempting to establish a basis for an educational approach to clothing behavior as self-discovery in pursuit of a happy experience of change.
