In this paper, we propose a plan for prospective early childhood teachers to plan, design, and produce and the results of operating a teaching model. To this end, we will identify video content for each age and video content of various topics and video playback time required by early childhood education sites, actively collect opinions from workers currently in early childhood education institutions, and suggest ways to develop on-site video content in the university curriculum. This requires prospective early childhood teachers to improve their self-understanding capabilities, community capabilities, and creative convergence capabilities, including digital capabilities. Through this, we intend to contribute to fostering smart early childhood teachers and creating a kindergarten activity and environment applying the latest video technology.

The purpose of this study was to suggest the effects of early childhood design program based on brain-compatible learning principles. Subjects were thirty-six children from two class of I kindergarten and S kindergarten in K city. One class was assigned to an experimental group and had early childhood education program activities based on brain-compatible learning principles and the other class was assigned to a comparative group the general art education program activities. The results of this study are as follows. First, there was a significant difference between the experimental group and the comparative group in their fluency, originality, sensitivity of creativity. Second, participants in the experimental group also score higher on the helpful act, communication skill, sharing skill, empathy, and regulation of emotion. Therefore, early childhood design education program based on brain-compatible learning principles should be considered as a meaningful alternative method for promoting children's creativity and prosocial behaviors.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Mathematical Activities using 4D-frame on 5-year-old children's mathematical ability and attitude towards Mathematics. For the study, E, K, and Y preschools located in S city were selected: 28 children from Y preschool as the experimental group(I: n=14, II: n=14) and 28 children from E and K preschool as the comparative group(III: n=14, IV: n=14). During the 8 weeks, the experimental group performed Mathematical Activities using 4D-frame and in the comparison group, Nuri-Curriculum's mathematical activities and mathematics-science integration programs were conducted. The analysis of covariance(ANCOVA) was conducted with the pre-test scores of the experimental group(I, II) and the comparison group(III, IV) as covariance. The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between the experimental and comparative groups. Mathematical Activities for Young Children using 4D-frame enhanced 5-year-old children's mathematical ability and attitude towards Mathematics. The results of this study provide an understanding of the efficiency of early childhood mathematical activities using the 4D-frame in early childhood education and provide basic data for the improvement of mathematical ability and attitude of young children and the applicable educational methods at the field.

The purpose of this study was to examine any possible gaps between the recognition of early childhood teachers on instructional planning elements and their implementation. The subjects in this study were 341 teachers who worked in Province. The collected data were analyzed by paired t-test, one-way ANOVA - test. The alpha coefficients of the instruments were 0.92 and 0.94 respectively, which showed the instruments were both reliable. The teachers investigated scored high when a four-point scale was utilized, but they scored lower in implementation than in recognition. In conclusion, teachers were well aware of instructional planning elements and performed well, but they had more difficulties in implementation than in recognition. When their recognition and implementation were evaluated by the type of institution and preschooler age in charge, the national and public kindergarten teachers were rated highest, and those who were in charge of five-year- olds in Western age were rated highest. The above-mentioned findings suggest that it's necessary to take actions to boost the recognition and implementation of teachers in relation to instructional planning elements.

First, parents' recognition concerning preschool education in the public education system was much different from that of teachers. As for definitions of preschool education as a public education, parents understood that it means 'the nation and self-governing bodies manage aid both the public and private kindergartens', and teachers recognized that it means that 'the nation and self-governing bodies not only found operate public kindergartens but also aid manage educational funds of private kindergartens. Second, the examination of educational environments of kindergartens told that teachers and parents thought that opportunity to enter the kindergarten is not equal for all children in our country, and quality of kindergarten teachers is satisfactory. Also, they thought that curriculums of preschool educational organs have been set well according to children's developmental stages, education quality is different according to preschool education organs' foundation-types. They recognized that facilities and apparatus of preschools are satisfactory, security and neatness of preschools are satisfactory, too. Third, the examination of developmental directions of preschool education as a public education proved following facts; as for foundation-types of kindergartens in the future when promoting preschool education as a public education, parents answered financial support and supervision by the government, teachers answered aid and management of operational fees as well as support for teacher personnel expenses.

The subjects were 219 picture books for children from 4 to 7, listed in which is published by Children's Book Study Group in 2012 and 2013. The research tool was from the article of 5-year-old nuri curriculum nature study, to analyze the contents of young children science education in the child picture books. Content analysis categories was set to two upper-categories and seven sub-categories. Research data were calculated in the analysis of the frequency and percentage of each item's category by the method of analysis conformity. In conclusion, first, in the analyzed result of the upper categories of young children science education contents in 219 picture books, the frequency appeared in order of 'Curious to maintain and expand', 'Learn living things and the natural environment', 'To explore the investigation technique', 'To enjoy the investigation technique', 'Utilize simple tools and machines', 'To search objects and materials', 'Learn natural phenomena'.

최근 현대사회의 가족체제 변화로 인해 유아 보육의 수요와 보육 시설이 급증함으로써 양질의 보육 환경에 대한 요구가 점차 증가하고 있다. 유아기는 성인과 비교할 때 정서가 불안정하고 급변하는 시기이며 특히 시각 및 청각을 통한 자극에 더욱 민감하므로 유아 시기의 보육 환경은 성장 이후 지적 사회적 발달에 큰 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소이다. 또한 유아의 보육 활동 유형에 따라 이러한 두 가지 이상의 감각을 동시에 자극하게 되면 감각의 통합과 상호작용으로 편안함과 집중력을 향상하는 효과를 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 만 3~5 세의 유아를 대상으로 양질의 보육 환경 제공을 위해 '수면', '학습', '놀이', '식사 및 휴식'을 포함한 네 가지 보육 활동 유형을 상황 정보로 정의하고 각 상황에 적합한 시각 및 청각 환경을 복합적으로 서비스하기 위한 다감각 시스템을 제안한다.
