유튜브(Youtube)를 활용한 아동 문화예술교육 사례분석: 구로구청지원사업 <나는야 구로유투버>를 중심으로

New media, including YouTube, have a stronger influence on current elementary school students born after 2010, than terrestrial broadcasting. In particular, for children, the job of a creator is felt to be an attractive job where they can do enjoyable work and gain popularity at the same time. Over the past three years, the educational environment, including schools, has changed rapidly through the COVID19 pandemic. Therefore, children quickly adapted and evolved to the rapidly changing educa- tional environment. The Guro-gu Office Support Project in Seoul <I am Guro YouTuber> is a cultural and artistic education program using YouTube and was conducted continuously from 2019 to 2021. This researcher analyzed this program to examine the effects of culture and arts education using YouTube media. As a result, first, culture and arts education programs using YouTube are effective for children's self-directed learning. Participating children objectively observed their appearance up- loaded to YouTube and tried to be seen as positive on their own, which resulted in the activity and spontaneity of participating in the program. Second, culture and arts education programs using YouTube provide a positive model for children's media education. In order to create good content, children were interested in various broadcasting contents, and children themselves tried to set ob- jective standards for good broadcasting and produce broadcasts that met the standards. In addition, by finding materials in the community to which they belonged, it became an opportunity for partic- ipating children to be interested in the community, and played a role in helping the community through the media. Future children's culture and arts education should evolve in the form of using YouTube that is familiar to children to lead children's leading learning and develop the power to se- lect positive media on their own in the flood of media.
