Based on 11 Research Reports the Future Education Trend of Primary and Secondary Schools in Korea is Examined

Abstract

The study focuses on 11 future education research reports released by the South Korean National Policy Research Institute from 2016 to 2022, and conducts qualitative research from four aspects: future education goals, future education content, future education learning and evaluation, and future education development strategies. The results show that future education goals not only focus on the social demand for education, but also on unleashing individual potential. The future education content includes ability education, multicultural education, future career education, human emotion education, global citizenship education, digital education, and etc. Future education methods are mainly personalized learning based on ICT technology, learner centered project learning, problem learning, inquiry learning, cooperative learning, formal learning, informal learning, and blended learning. The future education development strategy needs to improve public education and other systems. On the other hand, it is necessary for future education to reflect on the essence of education and the history of educational reform, and to consider the direction of future development from a macro and long-term perspective.
