The objective of this study was to follow up changes in knowledge related to the mathematics education field work of preliminary early childhood teachers. The subjects of this research were 28 students who were taking mathematics education courses in early childhood education departments at various universities. This research ran for 15 weeks and was conducted through field work relating to mathematics education. The study collected data from pre-service teachers' knowledge, the diagram of concept, writing journals, interviews, and materials from the internet. Through this procedure, pre-service teachers' knowledge for mathematics education could later be expanded, ordered, and integrated. In addition, pre-service teachers not only understood the importance of contents and levels of lesson plans, but also learned how to utilize educational media to make effective lessons. Furthermore, pre-service teachers realized that the mathematical concepts of students could be expanded depending on the contents and methods of pre-service teachers' lesson plans and students could then apply these concepts into daily situations.

The purpose of this study was to examine differences in multicultural early childhood teaching activities according to the general characteristics of early childhood teachers, to analyze the relationships and effects of early childhood teachers' happiness, variables of attitudes toward the teaching profession, and variables of multicultural teaching, and ultimately to identify variables related to early childhood teachers that explain multicultural early childhood teaching activities. For this study, 270 teachers in charge of young children from multicultural families at early childhood education institutions were sampled. When the 'age' variable, which might affect multicultural teaching activities, was excluded and the relationships among early childhood teachers' variables as independent variables were analyzed, happiness and obsessive passion were found to have an effect on multicultural teaching activities. These findings suggest that early childhood teachers' happiness and passion for teaching needs to be enhanced as an effort to set the direction of multicultural education fit for the characteristics of Korea in the field of early childhood education, where the foundation of culture is laid and prejudices are easily formed.

본 연구는 유아교육기관 교사의 소방안전에 관한 의식을 조사하여 소방안전의식을 향상시키기 위하여 수행되었으며, 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 유아교사들은 우리사회의 소방안전의식이 전반적으로 낮다고 평가하였으며, 교사 개인의 소방안전의식에 대해서는 평균이상으로 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 유아교육기관에는 대부분 소방안전교육계획이 수립되어 있으며, 소방안전교육을 위해서는 관찰 견학 수업을 가장 많이 선호하는 것으로 조사되었다. 유아교사들은 현장체험 및 실기실습상의 어려움과 소방안전에 관한 교육 자료의 부족에 대하여 가장 어려워하는 것으로 조사되었으며, 이에 유아를 위한 소방안전 교육자료의 개발보급을 요구하고 있었다.

본 연구는 경기도 K시에 소재하고 있는 3년제 유아교육과 재학생들의 실습기관을 대상으로 서울 강서구, 인천광역시, 부천, 일산에 소재한 유치원과 어린이집 72군데에서 이루어진 유아교육과 재학생들의 실습현황과 교육환경을 알아보았다. 유아교육기관에서 이루어지는 실습생들의 실습지도 현황과 교사들의 근무시간, 급여. 유아교사와 기관장의 여성 편중화 현상 등에 대해 4주간의 교육실습 경험을 가진 예비교사들의 객관적 견해와 현황파악을 하여 자료를 제공함으로 실습지도 현황 파악에 목적을 두었다. 실태 분석 결과에 의하면 4주간의 현장실습은 유아교사를 지망하고 있는 유아교육과 재학생들이 현장을 이해하는데 상당히 도움이 되어 졸업 후 취업을 위해 긍정적으로 받아들여지고 있었으며 대부분의 실습생들은 유아교사로서 수업을 할 때 자신에게 가장 부담이 되고 부족함을 느꼈던 부분은 음악, 미술, 손유희 등의 실기부분이라고 답변했다. 또 남자교사의 필요성을 부분적으로 느끼고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구는 교육실습기관의 실습지도에 관한 구체적인 현황파악과 능력있는 유아교사 양성을 위해 대학교육과 현장의 유기적인 연계성을 갖기 위한 기초자료로서 제공 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
