AB - The study focused on presenting future directions for social studies after analyzing implementation of social studies and teacher’s perception on social studies for students with physical disabilities. For this, surveys were conducted with a total of 229 teachers, 98 elementary teachers and 131 secondary education teachers, who taught social studies for students with physical disabilities from 31 special schools of physical disabilities in Korea. They responded to a questionnaire on the implementation of social studies and theirs perception of social studies for students with physical disabilities. The results were as follows.
First, students with severe disabilities accounted for over forty percent of the students with physical disabilities. The other sixty percent was composed of mild and moderate disabilities. As a result, the teachers were applying both general education curriculum and basic education curriculum. Teacher recognized teaching them about daily life habits and attitudes were most important for them to take care of their daily needs, which is the main focus of social studies. Second, teachers thought the most important objective of teaching social studies for them was to have knowledge of social situations and information literacy and problem solving skills. They also recognized that social studies’ contents needed to be included in diverse situations to help them to cope with daily life.
Finally, the demands were high on the teachers for developing curricula materials for students with severe disabilities. The results and discussions were to be used as a fundamental resource for developing curricula of social studies for students with physical disabilities in the future.
