시각장애학생의 이해를 위한 비장애학생들의 과학 시각장애 체험활동 = Science Activity to Provide a Visual Impairment Experience for Students to Better Understand toward Visually-impaired Students

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

In this study, scientific experiential activities for students with a sight disability were provided,together with experimental tools for the blind, to the elementary-school students who had no physical disability in order to help them to understand students who had a sight disability and to investigate their basic awareness of those students, elementary-school students in the fifth grade were chosen from Gyeongsangnam-do, Hadong-gun for the experiential activities. In the study, an investigation of the basic awareness about students who had a sight disability, scientific experiential activities for students with a sight disability, and a simple post investigation for participation in the activities were executed. In the investigation of the bagic awareness about students with a sight disability, we found that the students who had no physical disability lacked experience about the blind. Also, they seemed to have received no experiential education on sight disability. The scientific experiential activities for sight disability along with manufactured experimental tool for the blind, based on such experiments as counterbalancing, speed measurements and experiments for shades and lenses within the field of energy in the elementary-school science curriculum, were applied to students who had no physical disability. After taking part in the scientific experiential activities for students with a sight disability, the students with no physical disability showed a positive response towards those with a sight disability.

본 연구에서는 비장애학생들의 시각장애학생들에 대한 기초인식조사와비장애학생들이 시각장애학생들을 이해하는데 도움을 주기 위해서초등학교 과학실험을 시각장애인용 실험기구를 이용하여비장애학생들에게 과학 시각장애 체험활동을 실시하였다. 과학 시각장애체험활동은 경남 하동군의 초등학생 5학년 29명을 대상으로 하였으며,연구는 시각장애학생들에 대한 기초적인 인식조사, 과학 시각장애체험활동, 체험 후 활동참가에 대한 간단한 사후 검사를 하였다.
시각장애에 대한 기초조사에서 비장애학생들은 시각장애인에 대한경험부족과 시각장애체험교육을 받지 못한 결과로 나타났다. 과학시각장애 체험활동은 초등학교 과학교과의 에너지 영역에서 다루고 있는수평잡기, 속력측정, 그림자 실험, 렌즈실험을 시각장애인용 실험기구를제작하여 비장애학생들에게 적용하였다. 과학 시각장애 체험활동 후학생들은 시각장애학생들에 대해 긍정적 반응을 보였다.
