This study proposes ‘the textbook with multiple editions', which is gradually improved via new editions as a method of managing the quality of the textbook, and the main purpose of this study is to explore the applications of this new type of textbook. Also, systemic support measures are dealt with. After reviewing the preceding studies, overseas cases were investigated, and a survey was conducted to find out which school-level and subject is more suitable for the introduction of the textbook with multiple editions.
As a result of the study, first, in the case of school level, it is more appropriate to apply the textbook with multiple editions for elementary and middle school. Second, in the case of subject, Mathematics, Moral Education, and Korean language are top 3 in elementary school, and Chinese characters, History, Mathematics, Moral Education, and Korean language are top 5 in middle school that the need for the multiple editions is high. Third, it was confirmed that it was necessary to revise some contents of the relevant provisions to systematically support the textbook with multiple editions.
According to the results, it was suggested that the introduction of the textbook with multiple editions should be carried out on a trial basis among 'Korean language, Mathematics, Moral Education, History, and Atlases' in elementary and middle schools. It was also proposed to improve the relevant provisions.
