Abstract

This study is strategically researched to regain the signification of capstone design by correcting the errors neglected the importances of meetings in the convergent English translation capstone design. For this, intial-meetings were designed to be students-centered except for explaining some basic knowledge and information. Mid-meetings were completely students-centered for the students to present their ideas, debate the contents and give feedbacks to one another. Final-meetings were also students-centered for the students to adjust and confirm the results. To validate the importance of students-centered meetings, the qualitative study has been done through interviewing students. In the interviews, almost all of them said they had motivation, confidence, and self-efficacy. Finally attempting capstone design in the future, students-centered meetings should be considered important. Hopefully this kind of capstone design will be used and studied continuedly and lively as a useful method in the field of English education.

이 논문은 캡스톤 디자인을 활용한 융합적인 영어번역학습에서 미팅의 중요성을 간과하고 있는 영어교육의 문제점을 바로잡음으로써 캡스톤 디자인의 의의를 살리고자 전략적으로 연구되었다. 이를 위해 초기 미팅은 기본적인 지식과 정보를 설명하는 시간을 제외한 나머지 시간은 학생주도형 미팅이 이루어지도록 했고, 과정 중에는 학생들 간에 의견발표, 사안토론, 피드백 등이 이루어지도록 학생주도형 미팅을, 말기에도 학생주도형 미팅을 통해 결과물에 대한 팀원 간에 조정과 확인 등의 시간이 되도록 했다. 영어교육의 효율성을 높이는 데에 학생주도형 미팅이 중요하다는 것을 입증하기 위해 질적 연구를 시행했으며, 인터뷰에서 학생들은 학생주도형 미팅을 통해 영어 학습에 대한 동기부여, 자신감 더 나아가 자기 효능감을 갖게 되었다는 견해를 밝혔다. 따라서 향후 캡스톤 디자인을 활용하는 교수법에서는 학생주도형 미팅을 중시해야 할 것이며, 영어교육 현장에서 캡스톤 디자인이 지속적으로 활용 및 연구되기를 기대한다.
