Subjects were 15 teachers and 143 children at 15 child-care centers in Seoul that varied by quality of care. The Child Care Program Observation Scale(Rhee et at., 2003) was employed to observe the quality of the centers. Information on teachers' participation in play was collected by 20 units of observation for each teacher using a rating scale developed by the author. Children's behaviors were observed with time sampling method in 12 categories of play behaviors based on Social and Cognitive Play Scales(Rubin et al., 1978). Children's play behaviors varied by quality of child-care centers and teachers' participation in play. When child-care quality was high, teachers' participated actively in children's play and children showed developmentally appropriate play behaviors.

This study will examine the current condition of outdoor play in child care centers and the overall perception of teachers on outdoor play in regards to its related programs and children's reaction to them. Through examining such issues, this study will provide the basic data that can be applied in planning appropriate outdoor play activities, programs and environments. For the study, we surveyed teachers and directors of child care centers using a structured questionnaire. The objects of the survey were 22 child care centers in Daejeon and Seoul, who agreed to conduct the survey. The survey was conducted from August 1 to September 30 2006; 220 copies were distributed, and 188 copies were collected. The results of the study can be summarized as follows: 1) The number of outdoor plays per week were on average 1~2 in most cases, although teachers believed the play should be done everyday. Outdoor play time was mostly 21~30 minutes, while teachers thought 31~40 minutes as appropriate. Children's reaction scored the highest when they played outdoors for 30 minutes every day with their teachers involved in the play. As a result, we have concluded that the appropriate outdoor play should be conducted everyday for 30~40 minutes. 2) Outdoor play was mostly conducted as part of the overall educational plan rather than a separate plan. Since outdoor play affects children's development as much as indoor play, there is a need for development of a specific and separate plan for various outdoor play programs. 3) The outdoor play program that was most often conducted was equipment play and sand play. This indicated the monolithic nature of the outdoor program. Given the fact that children enjoy outdoor plays a lot (M=4.71), various programs including adventure play, sensitive play, and carpenter play should be developed. 4) In outdoor play, the teacher's role included supervising and interacting with children. According to the survey, teachers had a good understanding of the importance on safety and supervising issues in outdoor plays. However they seemed to overlook the importance of having better programs and improving teacher's participation to the play. Despite the importance of outdoor play to children's development, the result shows that teachers have tendencies to limit and obstruct outdoor plays by emphasizing supervising and safety issues instead. 5) Children's safety should not be the only consideration for outdoor plays; teachers ought to better understand that children's development can be maximized by the play. Furthermore, there should be emphasis placed on the program development and teacher's participation; teacher's participation should actively encourage the interactions between a child and a teacher, as well as among children.

In this Study, subjects were 274 children who were 4 through 5 years old. The participants included 274 preschoolers' parents and their teachers in D city. The parents completed questionnaires regarding parent's play participation with their children and children's self-regulation. The teachers completed questionnaires regarding preschoolers' happiness and playfulness.

Also, specific indirect effects were analyzed using AMOS user-defined estimand function. The primary results of this study were as follows. 1) The parent's play participation had an influence upon children's playfulness and self-regulation. 2) The children's playfulness had an influence upon children's self-regulation and happiness. 3) The children's self-regulation had an influence upon children's happiness. 4) Between the parent's play participation and children's happiness were mediated by the children's playfulness and self-regulation. This study revealed that parent's play participation, children's playfulness and self-regulation need to be considered simultaneously to explain the level of the children's happiness. The results highlight the structural relationships among parent's play participation, children's playfulness, self-regulation and happiness.

본 연구는 아버지의 놀이신념이 놀이참여를 매개로 유아의 놀이몰입과 또래놀이행동에 미치는 영향력이 어떠한가를 분석해보는데 목적을 두었다. 이를 위해 G시와 J도 소재 유아교육기관의 유아 242명과 그들의 아버지를 연구대상으로 선정하고, 이현지(2016)의 부모놀이신념 척도와 원희영(1998)의 부모 놀이참여 검사, 나은숙(2013)의 유아 놀이몰입 척도와 최혜영, 신혜영(2008)의 또래놀이행동 검사를 활용하여 자료를 수집하였다. 구체적으로 연구목적과 응답방법에 대한 안내지를 포함한 놀이신념과 놀이참여 질문지를 가정에 배부하여 아버지로부터 자료를 수집하였으며, 유아의 놀이몰입과 또래놀이행동은 담임교사를 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료를 토대로 Hayes(2013)의 PROCESS macro를 활용한 매개모형(mediation model)의 유의성 검증을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 아버지의 놀이신념이 놀이참여를 매개로 유아의 놀이몰입, 또래놀이행동 중 놀이방해, 놀이상호작용에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 연구결과는 아버지의 놀이신념과 놀이참여가 유아의 놀이에 대한 사회 정서적 측면에 직간접적으로 영향을 미치고 있음을 시사한다. 이에 유아의 놀이에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 아버지의 양육역할의 중요성을 강조하였으며, 아버지의 놀이신념이 실제적인 놀이참여에 영향을 미침으로써 유아의 놀이만족과 건강한 놀이행동을 유도할 수 있음을 고려하여 이들 변인을 긍정적으로 강화할 필요가 있음을 논의하였다.

This work was designed for the Green Fund Aid 2004 of Korea Forest Service. It won the prize and has been constructed. We can have an opportunity to play a leading role in improving partnership with participation of local communities, promoting environmental education, and enhancing the environmental quality by constructing biotops in urban areas where energy flow in the ecosystem is not balanced. This design includes 'citizen participation process' and 'local community partnership' that is expected to promote local community participation in the process of design. This work suggests that biotope construction with citizen involvement and community partnership plays an important role not only in design items but also in the revitalization of local community. This sort of design process could not be fully achieved without cooperation with stakeholders - environmental specialists, local authorities, relevant societies, schools, teachers, parents of students.

이 연구는 a) 예비교사들이 생각하는 학생의 대답에 대한 피드백 패턴 및 교실 담화양상을 확인하고, b) 예비교사들의 피드백 패턴과 교실 담화를 개혁 지향적인 수업 동영상과 비교 분석하여, 교실 담화에 대한 교수전문성의 신장 방안에 시사점을 얻는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 동일한 교수 상황에 대해 예비교사들이 작성한 가상적 교실 담화인 lesson play와 개혁 지향적 수업에 나타난 교사 피드백 패턴을 분석하여, 네 가지 피드백 패턴으로 구분하고 그에 따른 교실 담화의 특징을 논의하였다. 대부분의 예비교사들이 생각했던 교사 피드백은 주로 학생의 대답을 평가하고 의미를 전달하는 단성적 기능(univocal function)을 수행하는 것이었으나, 개혁 지향적 수업은 학생 전체에게 제기된 답에 대한 정당화-반박의 기회를 부여함으로써 학생들의 의미 생성을 촉진하는 대화적 기능(dialogical function)의 피드백을 포함하고 있었다. lesson play의 단성적 담화와 수업 동영상의 대화적 담화의 비교 분석은, 교사의 피드백 발화가 교실 담화의 주 기능과 학생들의 인지적 참여 수준을 결정하는 중요한 '지표' 이자 '변수'임을 보여주고 있다. 이상의 결과는 교사들이 높은 질의 교실 담화를 구현하기 위하여, (예비) 교사들이 구체적인 담화 맥락에서 선택할 수 있는 피드백의 다양한 가능성을 인지하고, 피드백 발화에서 '의미 전달'과 '의미 생성' 기능을 어떻게 조화시킬 수 있는지 성찰하는 경험이 필요함을 시사한다.
