2009 개정 교육과정을 위해 즐거운 생활과 개정 관련 연구가 이루어졌다. 즐거운 생활과는 통상적으로 음악, 미술, 체육과의 통합 교과로 여겨져 왔는데 이 중 체육과적 요소들을 분리해 내는 것이 개정 시안의 주요 내용이었으며 교과명이 미정이므로 통합 교과 B라고 부르게 되었다. 통합 교과 B는 2009 교육과정 개정에 반영되지는 않았으나 교육과정 개정이 심도 깊은 연구와 논의 없이 이루어진다는 우려의 목소리가 높았던 만큼 다음 교육과정 개정을 미리 대비한다는 의미에서 통합 교과 B의 시안을 분석해 보았다. 이를 위해 미술과에 해당하는 여러 나라의 1, 2학년 교육과정과 비교함으로써 통합 교과 B 개정 시안이 가지고 있는 문제점과 개선점을 알아보고자 하였다.

A study to revise ‘Jeulgaeun Saengwhal’ was conducted to prepare 2009 curriculum revision. Jeulgaeun Saengwhal is an integrated subject of music, art, and physical education. The major purpose of the study is to extract elements of physical education from Jeulgaeun Saengwhal and to include the extracted elements in the newly-established subject, Physical Education. Since the new name to replace Jeulgaeun Saengwhal is under search, it is named temporarily as Integrated Subject B. The result of study was not reflected on 2009 curriculum revision. However, as there has been criticism against the revision of curriculum without profound study and discussion, to study the proposal of Integrated Subject B will be helpful to prepare the next curriculum revision in advance. In this study, curricula of art related subjects in the United States, Japan, England, France, Germany, Finland are analyzed to compare with the proposal of Integrated Subject B. By comparing the curricula of the other countries with the proposal of Integrated Subject B, the problems and the way to improve of Integrated Subject B are discussed. Generally, the proposal of Integrated Subject B is presented in detail, specially Contents, Teaching Methods, and Evaluation, comparing with the curricula of the other countries. Because a detailed curriculum may limit the autonomy of school curriculum, it is needed to be studied about the optimum level of particulars. And, there is a question about the necessity to maintain the integrated curriculum. By extracting physical education from Jeulgaeun Saengwhal, Integrated Subject B does not have the characteristics of Jeulgaeun Saengwhal, such as play-centered and active. Also, the possibility of integration is more limited than Jeulgaeun Saengwhal. Rather than keeping the superficial format of integrated curriculum, Integrated Subject B can be separated into art and music to provide the solid foundation of the subjects for later learning.
