This study investigated whether there was a difference between general teaching efficacy and science teaching efficacy of preservice elementary teachers. And, the difference was also examined in the area of several variables of the preservice teachers, such as gender, the university majors, the high school majors, and grades. The results showed that a significant difference was not found between general teaching efficacy and science teaching efficacy. Teacher variables were found as the major factors to explain the difference. In case of male students who are majoring in science/math at university, and the students who majored in science/math at high school, science teaching efficacy was higher than general teaching efficacy. Whereas, in case of female students and nonscience majors at university and high school, science teaching efficacy was lower than their general teaching efficacy. Educational implications for preservice elementary teachers were discussed.

This study investigates how well pre-teachers in preschools aware the importance of science teaching methods, goals and efficacy, and how different the pre-teachers recognize the importance of methods and goals in science teaching according to the levels of their science teaching efficacy. The subjects were 207 pre-service preschool teachers in Chonnam University and Chonbuk University. The data were collected by using three questionnaires("Science teaching efficacy", "Science teaching goal" and "Science teaching method"). The data were analyzed by a t-test and descriptive statistic. The results are as follows: first, the efficacy levels of the pre-teachers are higher than the average. The pre-teachers perceive a 'process-oriented' goal more importantly than a 'content-oriented' goal in early science education. Also, they recognize science teaching methods as being significant in the order of an 'interactive' approach, an 'activity-discovery' approach and a 'knowledge-transmission' approach. Second, the pre-teachers with high teaching efficacy recognize a 'process-oriented' goal as being more important than those with low teaching efficacy do.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships of early childhood teachers' communication ability, teacher efficacy, and organizational effectiveness of child care centers. The subjects of this study were 397 teachers working at child care centers. The results of this study were as follows. First, differences in the organization effectiveness of child care centers were detected according to teachers' age, career, type of child care center where they were affiliated, and marriage status. Second, the relative effects of the teachers' communication ability and teacher efficacy on the organizational effectiveness of early-childhood educational institutions differed significantly according to each sub-factor; teachers' communication ability's sub-factors - response, analysis, and evaluation - and teacher efficacy's sub-factors - general efficacy and personal efficacy - had partial effects on the organizational effectiveness of child care centers. Of these, personal efficacy had the greatest effects on all sub-factors of organizational effectiveness. This study is significant since it identifies the variables that could affect the organizational effectiveness of child care centers.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of early childhood teachers' music attitude and emotional leadership on their music teaching efficacy in the music education. Methods: 301 early childhood teachers answered the music attitude scale, music teaching efficacy belief instrument, emotional leadership scale, and questionnaire for socio-demographic characteristics and music experiences. Data were analyzed by t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's productive correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis. Results: First, early childhood teachers had a higher music teaching efficacy in case of at least 10 years of teaching experiences period, having a post-graduate degree, having a music training experience, enjoying learning musical instruments and singing and listening to music during regular music lessons, and having a long music training experience. Similar results were derived from the subfactors of music teaching efficacy. Second, there were positive correlations(r=.172-.659, p < .001) in the total and subfactors scores among early childhood teachers' music attitude, emotional leadership, and music teaching efficacy. Lastly, early childhood teachers' music attitude and their emotional leadership were explained at 39~52 percent for their music teaching efficacy. Conclusion/Implications: This study suggests that it is important for early childhood teachers' perception of their belief, knowledge and feeling about music education.

본 연구는 유치원에서 자유선택활동을 실시하는 교사의 전문성 향상을 위해 셀프리더십과의 관계를 살펴보고, 교사 효능감에 대한 매개효과를 분석하는 데 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 2018년 9월 17일부터 28일까지 서울 경기 지역 유치원 교사 총 325명에게 방문 조사를 통해 설문을 실시한 자료를 사용하였다. 자료 분석을 위해 SPSS Statistics 22.0과 AMOS 20.0 통계프로그램을 사용하여, 신뢰성분석, 확인적 요인분석, 상관관계 분석, 구조방정식 모형을 실시하였다. 가설검증 결과, 자유선택활동을 교육하는 유치원 교사의 셀프리더십은 교사효능감에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 교사 전문성에도 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유치원 교사의 교사효능감도 교사의 전문성에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유치원 교사의 셀프리더십이 교사효능감을 매개하여 교사 전문성에 간접효과가 통계적으로 유의하게 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 유치원 교사의 셀프리더십이 교사 전문성에 미치는 직접효과가 유의하게 나타났으며, 이는 유치원 교사의 교사효능감이 셀프리더십과 교사 전문성 간의 관계를 간접 매개함을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통하여 유치원 교사의 전문성을 향상시키기 위해서는 교사의 셀프리더십을 강화하는 것은 물론이고, 교사들의 교사효능감 수준을 강화시키기 위해서는 업무환경에 대해 교사들에게 효능감을 높이기 위해 필요한 지식 및 기술 등을 제공하고 교사들의 전문성을 향상시키기 위한 적극적인 촉진자 및 조력자의 역할이 필요할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the teachers' belief of efficacy and their personality dispositions (reflective thinking, emotional adaptability, and motivation orientation). A survey was conducted of 282 kindergarten teachers working in the area of Seoul and Gyeonggi-Do. Data were processed and analyzed by statistical methods of descriptive statistics, Pearson correlations, and hierarchical multiple regressions. Results showed that teachers' belief of efficacy was positively correlated with their personality dispositions of reflective thinking, emotional adaptability, and motivation orientation-approach. They were negatively correlated with motivational orientation-avoidance. Teachers' belief of efficacy was highly correlated with emotional adaptability in all variables, followed by reflective thinking and motivation orientations-avoidance.
