Korean to English: 숲 체험 활동이 발달장애 아동의 운동능력과 사회성에 미치는 영향
General field: Other
Detailed field: Education / Pedagogy
Source text - Korean
발달장애(developmental disability)란 발달과정에서 유전적, 환경적 요인에 의하여 정신적 또는 신체적 기능에 심각한 손상을 가져오는 상태를 말하며, 정신지체, 학습장애, 뇌성마비, 자폐증, 뇌손상 등을 총칭한다. 발달장애인은 인지적 결함으로 일정수준 이상의 학습이 어렵고 추상적인 사고능력이 부족하며 학습속도가 느리다(Noh, 2009). 이들은 통제된 환경 속에서 집단적인 상호작용을 하게 되어 인간관계를 맺는데 한계를 느끼며(Yoo, 2000) 사회로부터 지속적으로 소외되어 왔기 때문에 타인과 의미 있는 사회적 관계를 거의 형성하지 못한다(Na, 1999). 기관에 거주하는 지적 발달장애 아동의 경우 신체활동 능력이 떨어지는 원인으로 신체활동 참여가 낮은 점과(Choi, 2002) 보호자 없이 자유롭게 활동하기 어려운 제한된 생활환경 등을 생각할 수 있다. 이들의 신체 활동을 높여주고 사회성을 향상시킴으로써 스스로 자기관리를 할 수 있도록 하여 삶의 질을 높이는 노력이 필요할 것이다. 아동이 성인이 되어 생활자립, 즉 직업생활 적응을 돕는 것(Cho, 1999)이 삶의 질 향상과 성공적인 사회 통합을 위해서도 절실히 요구된다. 이를 위해 이들을 전담 수용하여 재활 프로그램과 복지지원을 하고 있는 특수학교나 복지원 같은 시설이 많이 있다. 본 연구는 한국의 한 복지학교에 거주하는 발달장애 아동들에게 시행한 숲 체험활동 프로그램이 아동의 대.소 근육 운동능력 향상을 가져오고, 또래와의 상호작용을 통해 사회성을 향상시킬 수 있는지 여부를 알아보고자 시도되었다.		Translation - English
Developmental disability refers to the severe damage of an individual’s mental or physical functions due to genetic or environmental factors; this involves conditions such as mental retardation, learning difficulties, cerebral palsy, autism, and brain injury. Individuals with developmental disabilities display impediments to learning, reveal a lack of metaphysical thinking ability, and are slow in learning due to cognitive defects(Noh, 2009). Group interaction only occurs under controlled circumstances, which results in limited relationships(Yoo, 2000). They also have a hard time building meaningful social relationships with other people due to consistent isolation from society(Na,1999). Children who live in specialized centers with developmental disabilities display low physical abilities. An explanation for this is that they tend to not participate in physical activities(Choi, 2002), and that circumstance does not allow them to act without their parents. Efforts are needed to help them achieve autonomy and raise their quality of life by providing them with more physical activities and by increasing their social skills. To build the quality of their life and assist them with social integration, they need help with their occupations and independence after becoming adults(Cho, 1999). There are many facilities and specialized schools exclusively for them that help in these areas, which provide aid for their welfare and offer rehabilitation. This study which conducted with students with developmental disabilities residing in a special welfare school in Korea, aims to find out whether forest activity programs improve the participants' physical abilities pertaining to gross and fine motor skills and their sociabilities through communication with the peer group.
