Finding many incidents of social issues such as school violence, furor, suicide, corruption of some social power group and domestic violence due to lack of proper emotion, the researcher of this study thought about ‘what is true education,’ and felt sorry for the public education that focuses on cognitive education with an emphasis on success and entrance examination. The current public education still tends to pursue external university signs or success rather than internal growth. To regain educational essentiality in public education, this study suggests a slight solution to solve the social phenomenon,
The essence of education is not just knowledge, but growth as an well-rounded, self-directed person with the proper emotion and personality. The newly revised 2015 curriculum also emphasizes the holistic education and self-directed learning. In the curriculum, five core competencies were presented as 'self – management', 'information processing', 'creative thinking', 'aesthetic emotional', 'communication', and 'cooperation' to cultivate a self-driven, creative, and convergent talent in rapid globalization. Therefore, this study provided a design instructional program for emotional intelligence development by seeking educational approaches to solve these social problems and the demands of revision in 2015. In addition, it gave an emphasis on design education by taking effective art education methods to cultivate emotional intelligence.
Design is a process of planning for purposes and needs with flexibility, seeking various methods, and solving problems with more creative thinking. It is closely related to the elements of various emotional intelligence, enabling the systematic emotional ability to be cultivated in comparison with other art activities. Also, design education is essential for planting the proper personality and emotion, because it is an activity that is not merely showing your own position and thoughts, but is to consider others. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a practical design education program for Juniors in high school to develop the emotional intelligence that is essential for their life-time.
Based on the purpose and necessity of the study in chapter Ⅰ and the understanding of the importance of emotional intelligence in the time of adolescence in chapter Ⅱ, chapter Ⅲ reviews design education for emotional intelligence development. Specifically, it explains the understanding of design education, the relationship between emotional intelligence and design education, and the importance of design education to enhance emotional intelligence. Moreover, it clarifieds that design education is an effective education to develop emotional intelligence by examining the design education implications of emotional intelligence. In chapter Ⅳ, the direction of design education for emotional intelligence development was examined in order to investigate the specific direction. In chapter Ⅴ, the design instructional program is developed and applied to high schoolers to cultivate emotional intelligence. The overall research process of the program including the subject and the direction of the program, and detailed teaching and learning methods for each class are described. In addition, the results were analyzed after the design instructional program is appled to the Juniors in △ high school in Seoul and the students in college-entrance academy of arts. The program consisted of a total of 400 minutes of eight programs, each of which consisted of three classes, three classes, and two classes. Lastly, in chapter Ⅵ, the possibilities and limitations of the education program are presented with suggested plans for future research.
The study focused on the development of emotional intelligence through design education as a practical way as well as to improve the problem solving ability, patience, creativity, self-directing qualities for Juniors in high school. Inducing students to recognize and express themselves appropriately, to grow inward, and to respect other people's thoughts and feelings for harmonious community, educators will have to study with constant interest not only in design education, but also in various art activities that are closley related to emotion.
