Abstract

This study was conducted to understand the overall perceptions of teachers in the free semester career system based on survey data.
 First, although most of the teachers responded to understand the purpose of the free semester system at a very high level, there was a difference between the purpose of operation and the specific perception of the basic direction. Second, it was recognized that career education was needed at a macro level that looked at career path from a lifetime design perspective rather than a micro-level career education focused on experience in terms of career management, and there was a difference in the perception of operational content depending on the teaching experience. In terms of operation, teachers with less than 20 years of experience recognized that the ‘experience for experience’ was increased, which did not match the goals and purpose of free semester system. And they also recognized that the learning gap between students was widened. Third, there was no difference in perception about improvement plan according to teaching career. Teachers recognized the need for administrative and financial support to reduce job burdens and the provision of external instructor support and quality management measures were urgent.
 It is necessary to integrate teachers’ perceptions about the identity of career education in the future, and it is necessary to systematically manage teacher training for free semester system in accordance with teaching career, subject etc. Finally, sufficient discussion and improvement plans are needed to ensure that teachers’ perceptions and practice on career education in free semester system.
