Objective: The objective of this study is to classify the personality types of early childhood teachers and examine the variations in teacher self-efficacy and play support based on these personality types. Methods: The subjects of this study consisted of 302 early childhood teachers responsible for children aged 3 to 5 years old. The collected data were analyzed using cluster analysis and analysis of covariance. Results: Early childhood teachers were categorized into four types: the "sensitive group" (29%), the "conservative group" (10%), the "passive group" (28%), and the "active group" (34%). Significant differences in mean scores were observed for teacher self-efficacy and play support across these personality types. Notably, the active group demonstrated the highest levels of both teacher self-efficacy and play support. Consequently, the active group emerged as the most effective and functional personality type among early childhood teachers. Conclusion/Implications: This study emphasized the significance of early childhood teachers' personality types in their teaching practices, underscoring the importance of developing in-service and pre-service teacher education programs that take into account these personality types.

본 연구는 OECD 국가인 호주, 뉴질랜드, 스웨덴, 노르웨이, 영국, 한국의 국가수준 영유아보육과 정의 실행 관점을 '충실도', '상호적응', '생성'의 관점에서 비교 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 비교의 내용은 각국 영유아보육과정의 명칭, 문서의 목적, 학습 및 발달 목표, 적합성 검토 방법, 자체 영유아보육과정 수립의 자율성, 영유아보육과정 설계 과정, 실행자료 지원의 7가지 영역이다. 분석 결과 우리나라를 제외한 국가의 영유아보육과정의 실행은 '상호적응'과 '생성'의 관점에 기반으로 하고 있으나, 우리나라 국가수준 영유아보육과정은 '상호적응'의 관점에서 실행을 지향하고 있으나 현장에서는 '충실도'의 관점에서 실행이 일어나도록 하고 있다. 향후 개발될 0-5세 통합 국가수준 영유아보육과정은 '충실도'의 관점을 벗어나 '상호적응' 혹은 '생성'의 관점에서 실행될 수 있도록 그 관점을 확대시킬 필요성이 제기된다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to provide basic data in order to increase the flourish of early childhood pre-service teachers by examining pre-service teacher's basic psychological needs and characteristics on flourish. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted on 200 pre-service teachers majoring in early childhood education in Busan and the results were analyzed. Results: First, the level of basic psychological needs, characteristics and flourish of pre-service teachers was above average and there was a significant positive correlation between basic psychological needs, characteristics and flourish. Second, the characteristics of pre-service teachers were relatively more influential on flourish than basic psychological needs. Conclusion/Implications: The main variables predicting early childhood pre-service teacher's flourish are characteristics and basic psychological needs. And as characteristics and basic psychological needs of pre-service teachers are promoted, the flourish of pre-service teachers is increased.

The purpose of this study was to examine teaching competency for character education of early childhood teachers and their demands to improve their capacities. 152 kindergarten and child care teachers responded to 30 survey questionnaires, which included 3 sub-factors(commutative, practical, instrumental) of teaching competency for character education of the teachers, as well as 16 detailed components, designed to check their current competency for character education and to investigate the priority elements that they desired to improve. The data were analyzed based on the Borich request formula, the locus for focus model, and the independent sample t-test across the teacher groups. The results were as follows: Firstly, the most highly demanded teaching competency by the teachers was using tools interactively for character education. And the teachers, among the sub-elements, requested (a) recording and evaluating character education systematically, (b) using local or national resources, (c) planning member's participation, and (d) performing character education related activities systematically. Secondly, more new teachers demanded instrumental competency and answered the need of parents' participation among the sub-elements, more than the more experienced teachers, respectively. The study discussed the implications of promoting early childhood teachers' teaching competency for character education.

The aim of the study was to develop the scale for measuring prospective teacher's belief on workplace spirituality. The researchers revised the 'Workplace Spirituality Scale for Early Childhood Teacher (Lim, 2014)' into the draft of 'Workplace Spirituality Belief for Prospective Early Childhood Teacher (WSBS_PECT)' and then validated the draft of WSBS_PECT statistically. The data were collected from 664 prospective teachers participating 5 early childhood teacher programs. EFA, CFA, Correlations and some statistical methods were carried out for testing validity and reliability of the scale. As a result, the WSBS_PECT with 21 items of 4 factors - i.e. 'awareness of meaning of life', 'belief on calling for ECE teacher job', 'belief on relationships in community', and 'belief on membership in community'- was developed and identified as a available measurement for prospective childhood teachers.

본 논문은 2000-2013년의 OECD 29개국 데이터를 이용하여, 여성, 모성, 남성, 전체 고용률의 결정요인들을 실증 분석하였다. 영유아교육보육 지원이 여성 고용률과 양의 상관관계를 가지고 있음을 발견하였고, 영유아교육보육 지원이 남성 고용률에는 부정적인 효과를 가지지는 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 부소득자에 대한 한계세율이 높아질수록 여성뿐 아니라 남성의 고용률이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 여성 전체를 대상으로 계산된 고용률에 비하여 어린 자녀를 둔 여성의 고용률이 보다 민감하게 정책 및 여건 변수들에 반응하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석 결과는 현금성 가족지원보다는 영유아교육보육 지원을 확대해 나가는 것이 바람직함을 의미한다.

21세기는 포스트모더니즘의 시대라고 말한다. 진리와 지식의 절대성, 계몽주의, 이성주의, 객관주의, 합리주의, 결과주의 등의 가치를 지향한 모더니즘 시대에 대한 저항 및 반발로 등장한 포스트모더니즘은 오늘날 교육 분야뿐만 아니라 정치, 경제, 사회, 문화 등 기타 수많은 분야에서 나타나고 있는 지속적이고 다양한 변화를 설명해 줄 수 있는 새로운 사상으로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 유아교육현장에서 발견되는 포스트모던적 양상들을 고찰하였다. 그 결과, 유아교육현장에서의 포스트모던적 양상을 '상대성을 맥락으로 하는 유아교육: 유아의 흥미와 관심이 우선이니까요', '리좀적 구도를 지닌 유아교육: 유아들은 예측불가능하고 다채로워요', '양방향성을 추구하는 유아교육: 나도 아이들에게 배워요', '과정지향성이 강화되는 유아교육: 결과보다는 과정을 더 중요시하지요'으로 분류해 볼 수 있었다. 이상과 같은 결과를 바탕으로 결론 및 논의에서는 그러한 양상들의 상관성을 서술하고 유아교육현장과 관련한 시사점을 제시해 보았다.

본 연구는 우리나라 저출생 현상의 심각성을 공감하고, 저출생 현상과 관련하여 그 원인에 대한 분석과 이에 대한 유아교육·보육정책 방안 수립에 대해 논의하고자 한다. 특히 기존의 상부하달의 하향식 유아교육·보육정책 방안 수립에서 탈피하여 유아교육·보육 관련 구성원의 목소리가 정책에 반영될 수 있게 하는 상향식 유아교육·보육정책 방안을 수립하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 델파이 기법을 활용하여 연구를 수행하였고, 유아교육 및 보육 분야 전문가 20인을 전문가 패널로 구성하였다. 본 연구에서는 저출생 현상 대책을 위한 상향식 유아교육·보육정책 방안으로 '기회' 준거에 7개의 정책, '서비스' 준거에 11개의 정책, '재화/상품권/세금감면' 준거에 8개의 정책, '현금급여' 준거에 7개의 정책, '권력' 준거에 5개의 정책이 제안되었다. 본 연구에서 제안된 저출생 현상 대책을 위한 상향식 유아교육·보육정책 방안은 우리나라 저출생 현상을 해결함에 있어 구체적인 시사점이 되기를 희망한다.

Objective: This study aimed to develop a documentation model that can support early chlildhood learning through play and facilitate the implementation of early childhood and play-oriented curriculum. Methods: This study utilized the design and development research methodology to derive components for the model through literature review and investigation research. In addition, the model was gradually improved through the 3rd expert review, and the validity of the model was verified through usability evaluation with 10 early childhood teachers. Results: This study identified 13 components and developed a flexible, selective, repetitive, and cyclic documentation model based on the 2019 revised Nuri curriculum. Model development is embodied and presented as a model-detailed model-detailed content. The model is presented in detail in the study. Conclusion/Implications: The documentation model developed in this study is expected to provide guidance to early childhood teachers and serve as a basis for future research on documentation in early childhood education. It is expected that it will be able to present the practical direction of records for play support for teachers in the field.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to verify the effect of early childhood teacher's constructivist educational beliefs and teaching efficacy on creative teaching behavior. Methods: The subjects of this study were 262 early childhood teachers working in daycare centers and kindergartens all over the country. A questionnaire was administered which assessed early childhood teacher's constructivist educational beliefs, teaching efficacy, and creative teaching behavior. SPSS 28.0 was used for data analysis. Results: First, the constructivist educational beliefs of early childhood teachers had a positive effect on teaching efficacy. Second, it was found that early childhood teachers' constructivist educational beliefs and teaching efficacy had a positive effect on creative teaching behavior, and at the same time, early childhood teachers' constructivist educational beliefs were partially mediated by teaching efficacy. Conclusion/Implications: This study revealed the mediating effects of teaching efficacy in constructivist educational beliefs and creative teaching behavior relationships. Therefore, in order to promote creative teaching behavior of early childhood teachers, efforts should be made to increase teaching efficacy based on constructivist educational beliefs.
