This study was conducted to investigate the effects and influences of horticultural activities program which has the educational element of creativity and personality applied to the primary school aged children. To confirm the effects of the Horticultural Activities Program (HAP), 31 children aged 8-10 years from J child community center in S city was set to test. 16 children were chosen for the experimental group, and 15 children who were not participated for the HAP were selected as the control group. This study was carried out for 40 minutes each time, once a week, from May ~ July/2016. To measure the creativity of children with horticultural activities program, Kim’s (2004) creative personality test was used. Before proceeding the HAP, homogeneity test was carried out for creative personality to two different groups and it was confirmed that they are in homogeneity as there was no significant difference statistically. It could be found that the children in experimental group who participated HAP has improvement of creative personality in average with 9 times of program and it is considered that there is positive effect to enhance the creative personality of child. There was significant difference statistically when creative personality was divided into 8 sub factors; patience/obsession, self conviction, humor, curiosity, imagination, openness, adventure and independence. All of 8 factors were improved in average. On the other hands, the control group had no significant difference statistically for all factors except humor. Therefore, Horticultural Activities Program which has the educational element of creativity and personality applied has the positive effects to the children’s patience/obsession, self conviction, humor, curiosity, imagination, openness, adventure and independence.

본 연구는 초등학교 과학교과에 기초하여 작물 재배 중심으로 개발된 초등 원예-과학 통합 프로그램이 초등학생 6학년의 과학능력, 정서조절에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 수행되었다. 실험군은 서울에 위치한 Y초등학교 6학년 1개 반을 대상으로 2011년 4월 8일부터 6월 24일까지 매주 1회 오후 12시 50분부터 2시까지 50시간에서 1시간 10분씩 재량활동 시간을 이용하여 총 12회에 걸쳐 초등 원예-과학 프로그램을 실행하였다. 대조군은 동일 초등학교 6학년 1개 반을 대상으로 하였다. 본 연구에서 실시한 프로그램은 초등학교 과학교과의 과학탐구기능과 원예활동을 통합하여 실내･외, 개별 및 집단으로 활동할 수 있도록 개발되었다. 과학능력을 측정하기 위하여 과학탐구능력과 과학적 태도를 프로그램 실행 전, 후에 조사하였고, 정서조절은 프로그램 실행 전 후에 자가보고형으로 조사되었다. 초등 원예-과학 통합 프로그램에 의한 과학탐구능력의 사전･사후변화는 실험군에 있어 사후총점이 유의하게 증가하였고, 대조군은 유의한 변화가 나타나지 않았다. 과학적 태도는 실험군에 있어 사후 협동성 점수가 유의하게 증가하였고, 대조군에서는 끈기성에서 유의한 감소를 나타냈다. 정서조절능력은 실험군에서 자신정서조절점수가 유의하게 증가하였고 반면 대조군의 자신정서조절점수는 유의한 감소를 나타냈다.

This study was considered to theoretical establishment. Through European Artistic History Consideration. The paper analysed the characteristic of modern floral art based on the era classification. The environmental floral art has been developed since American started to press the naturalization on 17 century. Based on the styles of cone of Byzantine and S styles of Baroque, the formative floral art has been expended since. To report the expressive floral art, the paper has chosen two different methods. One is external method can classify into the mix and match expression, the natural expression and ethnic expression. Particularly, the classic Georgian and Victoria expression had been a source of the mix and match expression. And the ethnic expression has developed from the old Egyptian which displayed the national character by the three primary colors (red, yellow and blue). The other one is internal expression. The internal expression has divided into the realistic and the abstract expression. The realistic expression has progressed after the Rome era which used the natural material like fresh flower bouquet. The abstract expression is more artificial method in the consideration of color and vagina. The fusion style floral art has developed under the influence of Victorian era which created floral art mixed with the variety of material such as shell, feather, wax and fabric. The effect of floral art has also recognised inc. emotional, decoration, environmental, and educational effect.
