Analysis on Teachers' Performance and Goal Perception of Innovative Education District Projects Using Cluster Analysis: Focusing on the case of Incheon Education Innovation District

The purpose of this study is to understand the actual status of teachers' performance perception of innovative education district projects, verify the effect of participation experience on teachers' perception, and analyze goal perception according to the characteristics of performance perception. To this end, a survey was conducted on 950 teachers in seven areas of the Incheon Education Innovation District. As a result of the study, first, the school area-linked vision and planning, sustainability, and educational cooperation system were derived as four sub-factors of teachers' performance perception of innovative education district projects. Second, as a result of analyzing the difference in performance perception according to the experience of participation in the innovative education district project, the perception of teachers with experience of participation was higher than that of teachers without participation experience. Third, based on the characteristics of teachers' performance perception of innovative education districts, it was classified into four clusters, such as; 'a cluster with very high overall perception', 'a cluster with very low overall perception', 'a cluster with high overall perception'. and 'a cluster with low overall awareness'. Fourth, according to the teacher's performance recognition cluster, the level of goal recognition showed a significant difference, and the higher the performance recognition, the higher the goal recognition. Based on the research results, policy and practical measures were proposed for the development of sustainable innovative education districts and business operation.
