인터랙티브 키네틱 아트를 활용한 과학·예술 융합 STEAM 프로그램이 중등 과학영재와 일반학생의 과학 관련 태도에 미치는 영향

Abstract

This study aimed to verify the effect of the interdisciplinary STEAM program of sciences and arts based on the interactive kinetic art on the science-related attitude of scientific talent and students in general at the secondary school level, and also to examine the effect and possibility of STEAM program more actively reflecting the artistic elements. 'The science & art-based creative production activity(Interactive Art talking with energy)', the interdisciplinary program of sciences and arts developed with the support of the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity was used for this study. As an activity producing interactive kinetic art works using energy conversion, this program aimed to provide students with opportunities to develop scientific knowledge, artistic sensitivity, and creative thinking by letting them make creative art works based on scientific concepts and principles. The interdisciplinary STEAM program of sciences and arts based on the interactive kinetic art had statistically significant effect on the improvement of scientific attitude of scientific talent at the secondary school level while it had statistically significant effect on the improvement of scientific attitude and attitude toward science of students in general at the secondary school level, The effect of the program on the group of scientific talent and the group of students in general at the secondary school did not show significant differences. As an active method of art rather than a simple and superficial conversion, the STEAM program using interactive art and kinetic art has educational value of use and also has positive effect on the science-related attitude of both scientific talent and students in general at the secondary school level. Based on the results of this study, it would be necessary to extensively verify more various variables like creative character and creative problem-solving ability, and also to have future researches on the strategic approaches like development/application of STEAM program for many types to practice the customized education by considering various learners' characteristics and demands.
