This study aims to establish the concept of ‘scene' as a substantive instructional and learning unit in Korean viewing education, to derive its sub-component elements theoretically, and to secure empirical validity through expert review.
To this end, the study first reviewed prior research on viewing education in Korea and abroad, as well as the concept of scene in film studies, multimodal discourse analysis, and media literacy, and then operationally defined scene as an instructional unit for Korean viewing education. Based on the three-category, nine-element sub-skill framework of Park and Jang (2025), a provisional system of four categories and eleven component elements was derived by reorganizing it to reflect the characteristics of scene-based instruction.
To verify the empirical validity of the derived framework, a two-round Delphi survey was conducted with a panel of four Korean language education specialists and two media literacy and Korean language education specialists. Two adjustments were made based on the results: the scene form element was relocated to the integrative information category due to concerns about category attribution, and the critical comprehension and response element was eliminated as an independent element while its core content was absorbed into the description of the sociocultural context element. In the second round, all adjusted elements met the consensus criterion and the survey was concluded.
The finalized component element system consists of four categories and ten elements: two under visual information, three under auditory information, three under situational-contextual information, and two under integrative information. This framework can serve as a basis for developing Korean viewing education curricula, instructional materials, and assessment tools, and will function as a theoretical foundation for establishing viewing as an independent language skill.
