초록

지속가능한 개발은 우리 사회와 환경에 많은 잠재적인 혜택을 가져오고 있다. 따라서 여러 교육 기관들이 초중등학교를 위한 교육 프로그램에 지속가능한 개발의 개념을 도입하는데 큰 관심을 보이고 있다. 또한 초중등학교 기술교사들은 그 교육과정이나 교육프로그램에 지속가능한 개발의 개념을 받아들이려고 많은 노력을 해오고 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 지속가능한 개발의 개념에 관한 우리나라 고등학생들의 태도를 조사하는 것이다. 이 연구의 참가자는 경기도에 있는 6개 고등학교의 1073명의 고등학생이다. 지속가능한 개발을 위한 태도 척도와 인구통계학적 정보를 조사하기 위해 설문지를 사용되었다. 이 연구는 지속가능한 개발에 관한 고등학생들의 태도 수준을 알아보기 위해 통계적 분석을 하였으며 이를 통해 지속가능한 개발과 관련된 하위 개념을 규명하였다. 그 결과 지속가능한 개발에 관한 고등학생들의 태도를 다음의 세 가지로 규정하였다: (1) 지속가능한 개발에 대한 인지, (2) 지속가능한 개발에 대한 실천, 그리고 (3) 지속가능한 개발을 위한 교육에 대한 인식 탐색적 요인분석의 결과는 이런 지속가능한 개발을 위한 세 가지 측면과 일치했다. 또한 개방형 질문에서 얻은 질적인 자료는 지속가능한 개발에 대한 인지와 실천의 영역을 말하고 있다. 이러한 연구결과는 지속가능한 개발을 위한 교육의 연구와 실천과 관련되어 몇 가지 제안들을 하고 있다.

Sustainable development brings many potential advantages to the society and environment. As such, many educational communities have concentrated on incorporating this concept into their educational programs for the K-12 classrooms. The K-12 technology educators have also exerted efforts to infuse the sustainable development concept into the K-12 national-curriculum level. The purpose of this study was to investigate the high school students' attitudes towards sustainable development. The study participants were 1,073 high school students from six high schools in Gyeonggi province. A self-reported instrument was used to obtain the students' demographic information and to come up with an attitudinal scale towards sustainable development. This study employed statistical ways of exploring the attitudinal level of the South Korean high school students and of describing the subcategories of the sustainable development. The findings described the high school students' attitudes towards sustainable development with regard to three components: (1) cognition of sustainable development; (2) practices in pursuit of sustainable development; and (3) perception of the education for sustainable development. The exploratory factor analysis supported three perspectives of the students' attitudes towards sustainable development. Also, the qualitative data collected and analyzed from the students' responses to the open-ended question posed to them indicated two domains of the students' cognition of and practices in pursuit of sustainable development. These findings were made on the bases of several recommendations regarding the research on and implementation of Education for Sustainable Development(ESD).
