ABSTRACT

The high school credit system is “a system in which students select and complete various courses according to their careers, and is accepted for graduation when cumulative credits reach the standard.” The high school credit system not only takes the amount of learning as the number of class days as a graduation requirement but also grants students the choice of subjects so as to evaluate the quality of the learning that is the achievement of each student's actual academic achievement. Therefore, expanding students’ choice of subjects is an important basic condition for high school credit system implementation. As a graduation requirement in the high school credit system, the degree to which the minimum credits will be discussed in relation to the acquisition of certain credits. If you convert the ‘unit’, which is the current study standard, into ‘credit’, it would be appropriate to set an average of 25 credit points per semester and 150 credit points as the minimum credits required for graduation. It is suggested that 30～35 credits be required for the minimum required credits and that the remaining credits should be obtained various elective subject. The high school credit system operation needs to be reconstructed according to the existing classroom system (number of classrooms, utilization rate of classrooms, number of public classrooms, size and position of public classrooms). After establishing the minimum credits for the high school credit system and the elective curriculum, it is necessary to design the school’s space structure for the high school credit system. In order to enable the students to choose the curriculum according to their aptitude and career, the school-based type (in-school, inter-school), community-linked type (out-of-school education type, they should actively support the curriculum. In order to introduce the high school credit system, the teachers must teach many subjects selected by the students. Therefore, it should be provided with additional points for double major and minor, so that students’ choice of subjects is guaranteed.
