Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the level of technology teachers’ education needs for elective high school engineering subjects in the 2022 revised technology curriculum and derive specific demands for improving the expertise of technology teachers. Methods: In order to achieve the purpose of the study, literature related to the 2022 revised curriculum and education needs analysis was reviewed. A questionnaire was developed by the research team basedon the literature review and was revised and supplemented through a review by experts. The survey subjects of this study were limited to those eligible for the 2023 level 1 technology teacher qualification training. The survey tool asked technology teachers to respond to a 5-point Likert scale regarding the importance and feasibility of performance based on achievement standards for each subject. Educational needs were defined as the difference between the importance and performance scores. The IPA matrix method was used to determine the priority of support measures based on needs analysis. Results: The results obtained through this study are as follows. First, the demand for education in the world of robotics and engineering was the highest. Second, in the case of general intellectual property subjects, there was a high demand for education in specialized content area related to intellectual property rights. Third. In the case of the creative engineering design subject, there was a high demand for developing skills related to research and development projects in the engineering field. Conclusion: Through this study, it was determined that overall learning support is required for roboticsand the world of engineering, along with intensive training in intellectual property rights in the general intellectual property course, and project-based product development and prototyping in the creative engineering design course.0
