유․초․중․고 지구과학 교육과정에서의 날씨 관련 개념의 연계성 분석

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to supply the basic materials in order to reconstruct the science curriculum including the kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school science curriculum investigating, analyzing the connection and organization of the main concepts about weather contents of the kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school science curriculum. In this study, The Guiding Materials for the Kindergarten Education Activities, Elementary School Science, Middle School Science, High School Science, Earth Science Ⅰ, Ⅱ of High School were analyzed. The selected concepts are schematized according to the connection and sequence. And then examined their connection and sequence. The results of this study were listed below; The contents and the activity connected with the weather are similar to kindergarten and 1st, 2nd grade level. 1st or 2nd grade appeared to be lower than level of kindergarten. 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th grade were made well connected and 6th grade and 9th grade appeared most serious different. Specially, because 9th grade and 10th grade were consisted of the research activity than presentation of new concept, a lot of gaps appeared in knowledge cotton. Therefore, the teaching materials should be reconstructed by teachers. The connection of contents of 9th grade was suitable for 11th grade, and the curriculum of 12th grade should be reconstructed, because there were a lot of things to study and unnecessary repetition. The concepts of phase change, humidity, cloud, precipitation, atmospheric temperature, wind, atmospheric pressure and weather forecast were well connected, fog, adiabatic change, air mass, front, weather and life and climate have poor connection.
