ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to understand the implementation characteristics of the joint music curriculum of Daejeon and to suggest directions for improvement by exploring teachers' perceptions of the curriculum, learner characteristics, instructional design methods, strengths and improvements of the joint curriculum, and its educational significance. The teachers expressed both satisfaction and time burden through the classes, and they were expected to demonstrate a high level of competency in curriculum restructuring, teaching professionalism, and career guidance. The students enrolled in the course were primarily non-majors, consisting of those exploring the possibility of majoring in music and others who pursued music as a hobby. Although the joint curriculum played an important role as an in-depth music program within public education, issues arose due to the method of inter-school exchange. It was predicted that the program would continue to operate at its current level and scale even after the full implementation of the high school credit system. Based on the research results, this study suggests expanding class operations within working hours, establishing support centers and excellent hub facilities, supporting the development of advanced courses, creating systems to enhance teacher professionalism, and designating regions considering travel distances.
