역사적 사고력 배양을 위한 박물과 학습방안 = The Research of the Methods of the Museum Studying for Developing the Thinking Power of History of Elementary School Childeren -Focusing on Bokcheon Museum-

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The difficulty of thinking in the history education is due to the immaterial and ideal facts of the past and the abstract interpretation of them. It is the case with the elementary school curriculum. Therefore establishing ‘material concretness' suitable to the level of the experience and cognitive development of elementary school children can be one of the useful methods of helping the children to think the past concretely.
In this respect, the museum where various kinds of relics are arranged and displayed systematically can be regarded as the useful textbook for the history education. It is because the learners can have the opportunity of thinking of the societies and people of the past through the concrete observation and interpretation of the museum materials.
This article aims to raise several problems of existing museum studying and offer a alternative of it. The problem of the existing museum studying is that learning focuses on acquiring fragmentary knowledge about the studying objects like relics. To solve this problem this article offers the methods that learners observe∙keyword∙ and interpret concretely and practically the studying objects according to their intellectual level. The methods are classified as three steps like study before inspection to museum, inspection, and study after inspection. In this course we paid attention so that the information for the learners to study could be connected with one another organically, and considered to minimize the quantity of information.
