Abstract

This study targeted 125 prospective early childhood teachers at G University in G Metropolitan City to investigate their perceptions of safety care practices. The collected data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA and Scheffe's post hoc test. As a result of the study, there was a statistically significant difference in the overall awareness of safe care practices of prospective early childhood teachers according to grade. Statistically significant differences were found in the sub-factors 'Life Safety', 'Traffic Safety', 'Violence and Personal Safety', 'Drugs and Cyber Addiction', and 'Disaster Safety'. On the other hand, there was no statistically significant difference in 'occupational safety' and 'first aid'. Through these results, Through these results, we aim to increase safety competency by measuring safety care practices, expand practical training opportunities for prospective early childhood teachers, develop various media, and above all, improve class operation and content related to safety in early childhood teacher training courses. Based on this, we aim to provide basic data to develop a pre-service early childhood teacher education program.

본 연구는 예비유아교사의 안전돌봄 실천행위 인식을 알아보기 위해 G광역시 G대학교 예비유아교사 125명을 대상으로 하였다. 수집된 자료는 One-way ANOVA와 Scheffe 사후검증을 실시하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 학년에 따른 예비유아교사의 안전돌봄 실천행위 인식의 전체는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 하위요인인 '생활안전', '교통안전', '폭력 및 신변안전', '약물 및 사이버중독', '재난안전'에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났고 집단 간의 차이가 나타났다. 반면에 '직업안전', '응급처치'에서는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 이러한 결과를 통해 안전돌봄 실천행위를 측정하여 안전역량을 신장시키고자 하며, 예비유아교사의 안전에 대한 실무교육 기회 확대, 다양한 매체 개발, 무엇보다 유아교사양성과정에서 안전과 관련한 수업운영과 내용을 토대로 예비유아교사교육 프로그램을 개발하는데 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.
