In the trend of globalization and computerization now, the learning necessary to the students is not the existing fragmental knowledge-oriented learning but the learning that the students initiatively study for themselves and raise their originality and logical thinking power for adapting themselves to the rapidly changing world. But it is the state of affairs that the students cannot exert properly self-directed learning under the traditional teacher-oriented lesson in Korea. Accordingly, as for the role of the teachers in the future, it should be focused on allowing the learners' self-direction in order to study for themselves unusually and on the design of educational environment according to that.
It is required of autonomy and subjectivity in order that the students can study for themselves, so the teachers have to exert the leadership that can increase it unusually. According to this, as the result of examining the precedent research, super self-leadership was judged as most proper leadership pattern that can increase autonomy and subjectivity, etc. This study is to investigate the correlation with the super self-leadership, these teachers' new leadership pattern, and the students' self-directed learning.
As the result of examining the precedent research for accomplishing this purpose of this study, it could reach the imaginary conclusion that the self-directed learning will be accomplished effectively if the teachers can exert their super self-leadership and they have spontaneous motives that will be learned for themselves with the well-equipped educational environment. And then, for verifying that, the inquiry was executed on the object of 1,080 students who were currently enrolled in the eight commercial high schools adjacent to the seat of Chungnam Province.
Among the inquiry items, the item about the teachers' super self-leadership, the item about the educational environment and the item about the learners' spontaneous leaning motives were prescribed as dependent variables. And the item about the students' self-directed learning was prescribed as independent variables. And then, this study is to execute the regression analysis below for examining the degree that the independent variables affect to the dependent variables.
First, this study is to investigate the power of influence that the teachers' super self-leadership reaches to the students' self-directed learning.
Second, this study is to investigate the power of influence that the educational environment reaches to the students' self-directed learning.
Third, this study is to investigate the power of influence that the learners' spontaneous motives reach to the students' self-directed learning.
As the result of it, it shows that the teachers' super self-leadership and the educational environment do not affect the students' self-directed learning. But the effect of the learners' spontaneous learning motives extends over, but it shows that the power of influence is not high.
According to these results, it cannot help considering the respondents' characteristics participated in the inquiry. That is, the respondents who participated in the inquiry were the students who were currently enrolled in the commercial high schools and they little had the degree of interest or the degree of desire about the learning.
Accordingly, from the this study, we come to understand that the subject about the method of education for these students who have lost all the interests and desires about the learning from the beginning and the general countermeasures about the vocational high schools including the commercial high schools by the government authorities are urgent.
