摘要：The purpose of this study is to investigate in what ways the inquiry task of teaching and
learning in earth science textbooks reflect the unique characteristics of earth science
inquiry methodology, and how it provides students with opportunities to develop their
scientific reasoning skills. This study analyzes a number of inquiry activities in both
Korean and American earth science curriculums by using an analysis framework of earth
science inquiry methodology. Results suggest that Earth science activities in Korean
textbooks appropriately reflect comprehensive earth science methodologies and provide
students with more opportunities to develop their earth scientific literacy, while the
American curriculum used in the U.S. included only a small number of inquiry-based
activities.
