초록

This study was to analyze the degree of reflection of the nature of science in the exhibitions of Evolution House at Seodaemun Museum of Natural History and the Field Museum in Chicago according to the framework for analysis in regards to the nature of science and discover how well they perform the roles as informal educational venues. The nature of science, which was applied to the exhibition in Evolution House, mostly reflected the domain of the generation of scientific knowledge that was relevant to ‘Category I (Knowledge generated by science and the nature of science- Seodaemun Museum of Natural History 92%(78/85), the Field Museum in Chicago 86%(224/259))’. The exhibitions relevant to ‘Category II (Participation in the process of experiment, scientific process function, and deduction- Seodaemun Museum of Natural History 19%(16/85), the Field Museum in Chicago 22%(58/259))’ and ‘Category III (Thoughts of scientists, work and scientific mind- Seodaemun Museum of Natural History 5%(4/85), the Field Museum in Chicago 17%(44/259)’ had the second highest percentage. As for the domain of ‘Category IV (Relationships and interactions among the social structure and sociality of knowledge, technology, and science- Seodaemun Museum of Natural History 0%(0/85), the Field Museum in Chicago 2%(5/259)), it showed that the reflected exhibition could not be found at Seodaemun Museum of Natural History, and it was reflected at very low rates at the Field Museum in Chicago. Based on these results, it could be known that the nature of science was as yet concentrated on one aspect at the natural history museums in Korea and overseas, and it was judged that they were insufficient to play the role as the best place for students to directly experience the nature of science, which is hard to manage at schools.
