A Comparative Study on Space Organization of Middle School in Korea and Japan



The purpose of this study is trying to provide the development direction of subject classroom system in Korea by comparing and analyzing creating space and actual condition of subject classrooms in Japan. Unlike Korea where the government introduces and applies the subject classroom system to entire middle schools in no time, such developed countries as USA, Europe and Japan have experienced the subject classroom system for long time. The reason why we compare cases of Japan is that curriculum, changing process and background of school facilities in Japan are similar to those of Korea and Japan introduces and operates it as customized unit school.
