초록

본 연구의 목적은 초등교사가 과학 수업과 관련하여 어떠한 지향을 추구하는지, 실제로 마주한 현실은 무엇이며, 그 속에서 어떻게 좌절과 실패를 극복해 나가는지 이해하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위해 두 초임교사인 박 교사와 최 교사의 과학 수업 실천 경험을 내러티브 탐구를 통해 살펴보고자 하였다. 박교사는 학습자 중심의 탐구 수업을 실천하길 원했지만, 현실에서는 교사 주도로 수업을 하게 되는 자신의 모습을 마주하였다. 최 교사는 구성주의에 바탕을 둔 과학 수업을 실천하길 원했지만, 현실에서는 스캐폴더가 아닌 지식 전달자로서의 자신의 모습을 마주하였다. 그러나 그들은 과학 수업에 대한 자신의 지향을 포기하거나 좌절에 머물기보다는 각자가 생각하는 방식으로 자신의 지향에 다가가려고 노력하였다. 본 연구는 자신의 과학 수업 지향이 잘 구현되지 않을 때 초임교사가 어떠한 전략을 만들어 가는지 이해함으로써 예비교사에서 교사로의 성공적인 전환을 이끌 단서를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to understand what orientations elementary school teachers have related to their science classes, what realities they encounter in real classes, how they overcome their frustrations and failures they experience. We employed a narrative inquiry method and analyzed the experiences of two early career elementary school teachers (Miss Park and Mr. Choi). Miss Park wanted to conduct students-driven inquiry classes, in which students become active investigators, but in reality, she faced herself who conducted teacher-driven classes. Mr. Choi wanted to conduct science classes based on constructivism, but in reality, he encountered himself as a knowledge giver rather than scaffolder. However, rather than giving up their orientations, the two teachers tried to keep them in their own way. It was expected that by understanding what strategies beginner teachers take when their theoretical orientation and ideals are not well implemented in actual educational reality, we could find a clue that will lead to a more successful transition from pre-service teacher to teacher.
