After the discussion of integration, the discussion has focused on the "Young Children School", and there were differences of opinion on specific issues. Therefore, this study was conducted to propose the specific model for the "Young Children School" after kindergartens and child care centers were integrated with the Ministry of Education. The research question is to find out what the model of the 0-5-year-old young children school model centered on the Ministry of Education. In this study, assuming that integration of early childhood education and care was realized, a plan for integrating early childhood education institutions by type of establishment was proposed. As a conclusion of this study, first, a model of a 0-5-year-old young children school centered the Ministry of Education under the government responsibility is required. Second, a detailed school model that reflects the characteristics of each type of establishment should be developed. Finally, specific measures such as the reform of the teacher training system, the after-school course operation model, and the integration plan with the office of education and local governments should be presented during the young children school system.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of pre-service early childhood teachers' reality shock and school burnout on career search self-efficacy. The study participants were 195 pre-service early childhood teachers. The results of the study were as follows: First, it was found that pre-service early childhood teachers had relatively high level of reality shock, school burnout, and career search self-efficacy. Second, there was a significant positive correlation between reality shock and school burnout and negative correlation between reality shock, school burnout, and career search self-efficacy of pre-service early childhood teachers. Third, pre-service early childhood teachers' reality shock and school burnout significantly influenced career search self-efficacy. The result of this study provides educational basic data on an early childhood teacher training program in improving career search self-efficacy.

The aim of this research is to provide more proper teaching practicum chances through getting practical implications by pre-service early childhood teachers' perception of teaching practicum through investigating pre-service early childhood teacher's perception of teaching practicum using metaphors. Participants were 121 pre-service early childhood teachers'. They were early childhood education freshmen and sophomores who did not experience teaching practicum. The opened survey expressing metaphors about teaching practicum was conducted. The results showed that participants suggested 114 metaphors and those were coded and divided. The results were categorized into 11 types including 'It is hard but also fruitful.', 'It is a new experience.', 'It is hard and difficult.', 'It is meaningful and important.', 'I am afraid and worried.', 'I learn a lot.', 'I have to go though it.', 'I have to make an effort.', 'It is pleasant.', 'I am evaluated.' and 'others'. We expect that this research will give a chance to review what the teaching practicum means to pre-service early childhood teachers and make plans for pre-service early childhood teachers to prepare the teaching practicum with proper perception.

This study develops and examines the validity of a Creativity Test for children from of 4 to 7. 47 items were constructed through the validity of the literature and expert's content validity. The results of this study consisted of 22 items with three factors. These factors are flow and independence, expansion of thinking, curiosity and openness. The tests scale was examined about item's response distribution, item's discrimination, and construct validity and internal consistency reliability, and it was adoptable. It can be concluded that the test tool developed in this study is suitable for measuring the creativity of Korean children from 4 to 7 years in a simple manner, and it measures relatively well the cognitive and affective characteristics of creativity.

This thesis is to figure out the influences of children's gender, educational level of parents, educational participation of the mother, teaching method of teacher and literacy conditions of home and class on preschool children's school readiness. The objects of this study are 141 preschool children under 5 years old, 141 parents and 42 class teachers. Test for School Readiness, Measure of Mother's Educational Participation, Measure of Teacher's Teaching Method, and Measures of Literacy Condition of Home and Class are used as a studying tool. Collected materials were analyzed by Three-way ANOVA, Correlation analysis of Spearman, product-moment correlation analysis of Pearson, and phased regression analysis. The results are as follows: First, there are meaningful differences between the gender of children and mother's educational level for the school readiness. Second, except for the home's literacy condition, children's gender, educational level of parents, educational participation of mother, teaching method of teacher and literacy conditions of class show the meaningful positive correlation with the children's school readiness. Third, the adaptive zone, which is the subordinated zone, is affected by the gender of children, and the knowledge zone is influenced by the mother's educational level most. These results will be useful for the basic data that can help to promote school readiness for children's parents and teachers.

This study aims to understand the relationship between mothers' expectation on school adjustment of their preschool children and mothers' perception of their parenting efficacy and their children's competence. Subjects were 340 mothers of 4-5 year old children attending child care centers and kindergartens located in Seoul and Kyunggy area. Test on elementary school children's school adjustment by Lim(1993). Parenting sense of competence adapted by Shin(1997), and Self-Perception profile for children' competence adapted by Jeon(1992) and Suh(1999) were adapted and used to measure mothers' expectation of their children's school adjustment, mothers' perception on their parenting efficacy and children's competence each. The data were analyzed by t-test, Correlation, simple and multiple regression analysis. The results of this study are as follows. Mothers who have jobs and have graduated university or more showed higher expectation on school adjustment of their children. Mothers also expect higher school adjustment of their daughters and of not the first child in their family. The more mothers percept their parenting efficacy, the higher they expect their children's school adjustment. Mothers's perception on their children's competence also showed same relationship with expectation of their children's school adjustment, that is, the more mothers percept their children's competence, the higher they expect their children's school adjustment.

인간이 생각하고 지식이 습득되어지는 방법에 대한 이해는 인지과학자들에게 항상 중요 관심사이다. 학교교육이 전개된 후의 학생들을 대상으로 한 인지과정을 탐구하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에 유아기 유아들을 대상으로 과학적인 표상능력을 이용하여 유아의 인지구조를 고찰하였다. 5세 유아 120명을 대상으로 2년간 주변에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 곤충류를 관찰할 수 있도록 한 후, 그림 그리기와 언어 표현 방법을 이용하여 유아들의 인지과정이 탐구되었다. 유아들은 1차, 2차 표상과정을 통해 기존에 갖고있던 사물에 대한 개념에 분명한 변화를 보였다. 본 연구결과는 유아들의 과학지식 형성에 대한 인지과정을 기술하며, 과학적 지식으로 확장될 수 있는 효율적인 지도 방법을 제공한다.
