Abstract

Secondary career education in Korea has a history of about 10 years after the establishment of the career guidance teacher as a qualification of secondary school teacher in 2011 and the enactment of the 「Career Education Act」 in 2015. Until now, career guidance teachers in secondary education have pointed out various issues with career education in Korea and raised their voices on the direction of improvement. This study attempted to comprehensively explore the current problems of career education, the direction of development, and the roles of members. Sixteen regional secondary career education experts’ opinions were collected through e-mail. The research team analyzed and organized various themes according to the categories of problem recognition, development direction, and member roles through thematic analysis, a qualitative analysis method. As for problem recognition, various problems of career education goals, career guidance teachers, school and social systems, parents, and students themselves were found. Convergence competencies, career flexibility, personality, and entrepreneurship were suggested as the direction of development of the educational content, and education using Edutech and AR/VR were indicated as the direction of development of education methods. In terms of member roles, various roles were presented by dividing them into the schools, career guidance teachers, universities, and local governments. This study is meaningful in that it sought the direction of the linkage of schools-universities-local governments for regional development and career education of local students.
