유아기의 교육은 그 특성상 생애 전반에 걸쳐 큰 영향을 미치게 되므로, 유아를 위한 교육은 매우 중요하며 미래사회에 필요한 내용들로 구성되어야한다. 컴퓨터는 앞으로의 시대에도 꼭 필요한 도구이며, 컴퓨터를 이용한 사고력 증진 및 컴퓨팅적 사고는 미래사회를 살아가는데 있어 중요한 요소로 여겨지고 있다. 따라서 유아에게 필요한 컴퓨터 교육은 어떻게 이루어져야 하는지, 그 교육을 위한 필요한 것들은 무엇인지에 대한 고민은 매우 중요하며 필요하다. 이에 본 논문은 기존의 유아 컴퓨터 교육에 대한 연구를 분석하여 유아교육에 대한 국내외 연구 동향을 살펴봄으로써 현재까지의 연구 상황과 실태를 파악하여 앞으로 필요한 연구의 방향 설정에 도움을 주고자 한다.

This study aims to provide basic data for revitalizing creativity research related to early childhood teachers by analyzing creativity research related to early childhood teachers. For this study, 103 master's and doctoral dissertations in Korea, which were searched through the National Assembly Library and the Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), were selected under the themes of 'early childhood teacher', 'creativity', and 'creativity research trends'. The frequency and percentage were calculated by analyzing creativity research related to early childhood teachers with five criteria: research period, research content, research method, research subject, and creativity factor. As a result of the study, first, as for the trends of creativity research related to early childhood teachers, 91 master's theses (88.3%) and 12 doctoral theses (11.7%) were conducted from 1991 to 2022, focusing on master's theses. Second, trends by research content were found in 20 basic studies (19.4%) and 83 practical studies (80.6%). Creativity research related to early childhood teachers is being actively conducted centering on practical research. Third, trends by research method showed 96 quantitative studies (93.2%), 7 qualitative studies (6.8%), and 0 literature studies (0%). Creativity studies related to early childhood teachers were being conducted with a focus on quantitative research. Fourth, the trend by research subject consisted of 100 studies (97.1%) related to early childhood teachers and 3 studies (2.9%) related to pre-service early childhood teachers. Fifth, trends by creativity factor were found in 56 studies (54.4%) related to teacher's variables and 47 studies (45.6%) related to creativity education methods. Studies related to teacher's variables were relatively higher than creativity education methods. As a result of this study, there is a lack of Christian education research in creativity research related to early childhood teachers, so it is expected that it will be done in the future.
