Abstract

This study aimed at analyzing teachers' perception of democratic civic education. A total of 200 childcare teachers participated in the survey, and frequency analysis and cross-tabulation analysis were performed to analyze the survey data. According to the results of the study, first, the childcare teachers were significantly different in the teachers' factors on necessity and difficulty of democratic civic education. The childcare teachers perceived the necessity of democratic civic education, and attributed the cause of the difficulties in democratic civic education to parents' attitudes. Second, there weren't significant differences in the teacher's factors on the content and methods of democratic civic education. Therefore, in this study, it is emphasized that democratic civic education is related to young children's homes and communities, and reorganization of democratic civic education programs based on development of young children is suggested.

본 본 연구는 보육교사가 민주시민교육에 대해 어떻게 인식하고 있는가를 알아보기 위해 이루어졌다. 연구대상으로는 J지역의 재교육에 참여한 보육교사 200명을 선정하였으며, 자료처리는 빈도분석과 교차분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 민주시민교육의 요구도에 대한 보육교사의 인식은 교사 변인에 따라 차이를 보였다. 즉, 보육교사는 민주시민교육이 필요함을 인식하고 있었고, 민주시민교육이 어려운 주요 원인을 부모양육태도로 보았다. 둘째, 민주시민교육의 내용과 방법에 대한 보육교사의 인식은 교사 변인에 따라 유의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 이를 토대로 가정, 지역사회와의 연계성을 강조하였고, 영유아의 발달에 근거한 민주시민교육 프로그램의 재구성을 제시하였다.
