Abstract

This study analyzes how students who participate in non-curriculum perceive the non-curriculum, which is very important for students to develop competencies required in today’s rapidly changing social environment. Students at a university located in the metropolitan area participated in the survey questionnaire utilized in this study. Results indicate the following. First, only 16.39% of the students had participated in non-curriculum, which was not particularly high. Second, as a result of analyzing students’ perception of the need and their participation in non-curriculum, perceived need was much higher than participation in all stages and types of programs. The stages and types of non-curriculum that needed to be improved immediately were learning research projects, competitive exhibitions, and contests belonging to the experience-oriented flourishing stage. Third, compared with the students who had not participated in non-curriculum, the students who had participated in non-curriculum perceived the need of the non-curriculum much more. In addition, as a result of analyzing the actual participation of students who participated in non-curriculum compared to the future participation intent of students who did not participate, the intention to participate was lower than the actual participation. Based on the above research results, the following suggestions were made in this study. To increase students’ participation rate in non-curriculum, it is necessary to link their experience of participation in non-curriculum with scholarships or major curriculum certification systems and continue to provide education about non-curriculum to the professors. Through performance analysis and student demand survey of current non-curriculum, it is suggested to operate various programs that the students want and need, to support non-curriculum tailored to gender, grade, and college characteristics, and to expand community-linked non-curriculum.
