대학 교양체육 교육과정 설계 방향에 대한 교수자의 인식 분석

초록

Recently, there are many voices to face the serious crisis of physical education as liberal education (PELE) and to reform PELE in order to meet educational needs from Korean universities. However, lack of active efforts are made to change and reconstruct curriculum of PELE in most of Korean universities and academic communities in Physical Education. To date, some studies in PELE have conducted to analyze the realities of PELE and students' perception toward PELE in some universities, whereas little study is done to investigate educators' perception toward PELE in Korea. To accomplish curriculum reform in PELE, it needs to explore the perception and needs of educators (professors and instructors) as well as students in PELE. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze educators' perception about curriculum design for physical education as liberal education in higher education. For doing this, total 340 educators from national and private universities in Korea are selected using a convenient sampling method. The findings have showed that most of educators have dissatisfied the given courses, thought the role of PELE as bridge of school physical education and sports for all and health management, and needed to extend enough environment and to provide valid courses in PELE. In addition, they have suggested that PELE should develop basic competency and operate with required courses and educationally valid courses as liberal education in higher education. Especially, it needs to establish the philosophy and educational roles of PELE and to reconstruct PELE curriculum based on efficient communication among universities personnels.
