Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions between teachers and parents on the role and operation of Sejong Special Self-Governing City Early Childhood Education and Development Institute (ECED). The conclusions were as follows: First, more than 96% of the teachers and parents perceived that it was necessary to establish ECED, and the major role of the institute should be providing experience-based educational program. Second, the program of the institute should be organized based on interest induction of children and their creativity development, and cultural art experience-based education was the most desirable program for the weekend. Third, for the teacher support programs, professional development and empathy ability improvement were the key of the program, whereas the parents perceived that communication skills with their children and understanding of child development were essential. As a result, it was obvious that the needs of ECED establishment from teachers and parents were high, and the perceptions of both sides were not different.

본 연구는 세종시 유아교육진흥원의 역할과 운영에 대한 교사와 학부모의 인식을 알아보기 위해 교사 58명, 학부모 106명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교사와 학부모의 96% 이상이 세종시 유아교육진흥원 설립이 반드시 필요하며, 주된 역할은 유아체험활동지원으로 인식하고 있었다. 둘째, 유아교육진흥원 프로그램운영은 유아의 흥미유발과 창의성 신장을 중심으로 누리과정과 연계될 필요가 있고, 주말체험프로그램은 문화 예술체험프로그램을 가장 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 교원지원은 교사들의 전문성 및 공감능력 향상을 위한 지원이, 학부모지원은 자녀와의 의사소통방법과 유아발달단계이해를 위한 지원에 대한 요구가 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 세종시 유아교육진흥원의 설립에 대한 교사와 학부모의 요구도가 상당히 높고, 역할 및 운영에 관한 대부분의 문항에서 교사와 학부모의 의견에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않아 의견의 일치도가 상당히 높음을 알 수 있었다.
