교육과정 시기 및 학술지별 가정과교육과정 연구의 동향

Abstract

This study examined the trends in home economics education research across different curriculum periods and journals. A total of 374 papers related to the 2009, 2015, and 2022 revised curricula were selected and analyzed using network analysis from four journals. First, research trends were analyzed by curriculum period. Keyword frequency analysis revealed that articles on the 2009 and 2015 revised curricula primarily focused on analyzing the curriculum to develop textbooks or programs. In contrast, papers on the 2022 revised curriculum explored broader directions. Topic modeling results highlighted the prominent topics for each period: ‘environmental education’ in the 2009 revised curriculum, ‘safety and health education’ in the 2015 revised curriculum, and ‘ecological transition’ in the 2022 revised curriculum. Second, research trends were analyzed by journal. Keyword frequency analysis by journal exposed specific research tendencies. For example, in the Journal of Home Economics Research, ‘perceptions of practical classes’ and ‘analysis of safety textbooks’ were major topics for the 2009 revised curriculum, while ‘teaching and learning plans for competence development’ dominated research on the 2015 revised curriculum. This study demonstrates that the concepts and goals emphasized in curriculum revisions are reflected in the corresponding research.
