Abstract

The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the preferences for three home economics curriculum Models(Concept-based curriculum Model, Competency-based curriculum Model, and Practical Problem-based curriculum Model) of Korean home economics(HE) teachers and HE teacher educators, (2) to determine the difference between HE teachers and HE teacher educators according to purposes of HE, focus of learning, organization of HE subject matter, focus of HE curriculum, focus of HE content, HE knowledge, main questions addressed through HE curriculum, teaching strategies, students’progress, and systems of action, and (3) to determine the relationships between preferences for three curriculum Models and personal and professional characteristics of HE teachers. Respondents in this study were 225 HE teachers and 35 HE teacher educators. The survey method was used in this descriptive study. The survey method was used in this descriptive study. The overall curriculum Model preference of each teacher respondent was determined by counting number of times a given Model among 10 identified variables. The data were analyzed by using Chi-square to compare the differences between the two groups. To determine the relationships between preferences for three curriculum Models and personal and professional characteristics of HE teachers, coefficient of contingency tables was used. Both of HE teacher group(79.4%) and HE teacher educator group(67.6%) preferred the practical problem-based curriculum Model the most. There was a difference between the two groups on preferences for the curriculum Models related to systems of action. No significant difference emerged when Chi-square was applied to determine difference between the two groups on overall preferences for three HE curriculum Model. The chi square values between preferences for three curriculum Model and level of school, type of school were statistically significant. Each contingency coefficient for level of school(middle school and high school) and form of school(private and public school) was 27, which means there is a low association between the preferences and level of school and the preferences and form of school.
