2022 개정 교육과정에 근거한 지속가능발전교육 분석 및 교과서 개발 방향 제시

Abstract

Objectives This study analyzes the 2022 revised National Curriculum Framework (draft) and its alignment with Education for Sustainable Development(ESD) to derive implications for textbook development. Methods The research examines the subject-specific objectives, content systems, and achievement standards in terms of their relevance to the core content and elements of ESD. The study's objective is implemented by analyzing the content of the National Curriculum Framework(draft), subject-specific objectives, content systems, and achievement standards for each subject, while selecting relevant elements of ESD based on previous research. Results Firstly, the National Curriculum Framework(draft) is evaluated in relation to the concept of sustainable development, encompassing social, environmental, and economic perspectives of ESD. The analysis reveals that seven out of the nine social perspectives are reflected, while only four out of the nine environmental perspectives and one out of the four economic perspectives are included. This highlights the need for a more balanced approach across all perspectives. Secondly, all subjects except mathematics incorporate elements of ESD in their subject-specific objectives for fifth and sixth grades. However, apart from some environmental perspectives found in ethics, society, and practical arts, the objectives predominantly align with the social perspective. Achievement standards demonstrate a higher inclusion of core contents and content elements of sustainable development education compared to objectives and content systems. Lastly, textbook development based on the 2022 revised curriculum should ensure equal representation of all three perspectives of ESD, with diverse content elements included within each perspective. It is crucial to incorporate ESD into all subjects. Conclusions The study emphasizes the growing demand for ESD to prepare for future societies. The findings serve as fundamental guidelines for the application of ESD in textbook development and contribute to the creation of desirable textbooks.
