그린인테리어 원예교육 프로그램이 초등학생의 식물친숙도와 미의식에 미치는 효과

Abstract

This study collected and analyzed data concerning green interior education by examining the
 2015 Revised National Art and Practical Arts Curriculum, previous research, related books, and
 online resources. Subsequently, it determined the direction for a model green interior horticultural
 education program. The development of this education program was structured around two main
 components: indoor gardening techniques and design principles for green interior spaces. This
 approach was chosen to ensure a well-balanced learning experience. Related class activity maps
 were created and provided as part of the program. With this framework in place, the study sought
 to assess the program's impact on students' familiarity with plants and their aesthetic awareness. The
 subjects of this study were two 5th-grade classes at J Elementary School, located in Seoul. The
 students were assigned to the experimental and control groups and participated in 18 sessions of the
 horticultural education program. The results indicated a statistically significant difference between the
 two groups, demonstrating the effectiveness of the developed green interior horticultural education
 program in improving elementary school students' familiarity with plants and their aesthetic
 awareness. This implies that engaging in various activities centered around indoor plants as well as
 experiencing the design and aesthetic elements of living spaces, yielded significant results. In
 particular, green interior education, which integrates the two aforementioned domains, underscores
 the psychological stability and significance of green space by transforming an actual living space
 into a nature-friendly space and fosters an appreciation for aesthetic beauty through education on
 indoor design. The study’s findings are expected to serve as foundational data for developing
 teaching and learning materials for green interior experiences
