지리교육에서 주관성 인식 탐색을 위한 접근 -Q 방법론의 가능성과 활용-

초록

This study examines how Q methodology can be applied as a teaching and learning method in geography education. The paper highlights its potential as an instructional tool in four key areas. First, Q-sorting activities enable learners to actively construct and express their thoughts, supporting learner-centered instruction. Second, by engaging with socially contested issues in geography, Q methodology fosters pluralistic value recognition and critical citizenship. Third, teachers can identify the structure of learners’ subjectivity, which enables customized lesson design and feedback. Fourth, Visual Q methodology offers valuable opportunities for meaningful learning within place-based geography education. These strengths suggest that Q methodology can function not only as a research method but also as a practical instructional strategy in geography education.
