ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to derive components of curriculum literacy required for elementary school teachers through comparing national level curriculum documents. For this, this study analyzed similarities and differences between documents of the 2015 revised curriculum by comparing the 2009 revised curriculum focusing on subjects of Korean language, mathematics, social studies and science. From the results of primary analysis, in examining formats of curriculum documents focusing on the whole construction system, domain division, content system and accomplishment criterion, the degree of ‘formal consistency in curriculum documents’ of the 2015 revised curriculum was found to get increased as compared with that of the 2009 revised curriculum. In spite of similarities in document construction methods, however, it was found that a sound understanding of internal logics of curriculum pedagogy should be required in order for elementary teachers to clearly analyze internal meaning of the curriculum owing to ‘substantial inconsistency in curriculum documents.’ Thus, this study proposed that curriculum literacy required for elementary school teachers should be constructed in three dimensions such as subject general literacy, subject particular literacy and subject integrated literacy. Based on this, this study presented suggestions related with elevation and exploration for elementary school teachers’ curriculum literacy.
