South Korea Middle School Grade 7 Curriculum - Technics and Housekeeping

The South Korean middle school curriculum includes a subject called "Practical Arts," which encompasses Technology (기술) and Home Economics (가정). This combined subject is part of the core curriculum for grades 1-3 of middle school (equivalent to grades 7-9).

Prior to the 2022 curriculum revision, the 2015 curriculum framework included Practical Arts as a combined subject alongside Science and Informatics. The 2015 curriculum aimed to teach students about family life, technology, and life skills. The Asia Society notes that the curriculum was standardized to include both boys and girls in technology and domestic science classes. The 2015 national curriculum document outlines the subject clusters and time allocation for each subject.

The 2022 revised national curriculum maintained Practical Arts, separating Technology, Home Economics, and Informatics into distinct subjects. While the specific details of the 2022 Grade 7 curriculum are not readily available in English, information suggests a focus on practical life skills, technology, and family life, aligning with the previous curriculum's aims. Some sources mention the inclusion of topics such as child development and parenting within the Home Economics portion of the curriculum.
