초록

본 연구는 보육교사가 사용하는 유아의 또래 상호작용 촉진 전략에 대한 사용실제를 알아보고, 전략실행시 교사들이 겪는 어려움을 복합연구법을 사용하여 살펴보았다. 연구대상은 서울경기 지역의 보육교사 155명으로, 상호작용촉진 전략사용실제에 관한 SIPPY 설문조사에 응답하였다. 구체적 전략 실제와 전략 사용시 겪는 어려움을 알아보고자 서면질문 조사를 실시하여 설문참가자중 44명이 응답하였고, 이중 3명을 대상으로 심층면접을 실시하였다. SIPPY 설문자료는 SPSS 20.0을 사용하여 기술통계와 일원분반분석을 사용하여 분석하였으며, 서면질문과 심층면접자료는 질적 연구방법 절차를 사용하여 분석하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 본 연구의 보육교사들은 또래 상호작용 촉진 전략 중 환경구성 전략과 일상활동 전략을 대체적으로 자주 사용하며, 상대적으로 중점활동 전략은 적게 사용하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 경력과 학력에 따른 전략사용에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 둘째, 구체적 전략사용실제를 분석한 결과, 보육교사들은 칭찬, 시범, 제안, 매체활용과 같은 일상활동 전략을 자주 사용하며, 상호작용 촉진 전략 사용 시 환경적 요인, 가정과의 연계, 유아개별 특성, 교사요인 등이 또래사용 촉진 전략 사용을 어렵게 하는 요소들로 분석되었다. 연구결과를 바탕으로 유아 또래 상호작용 증진을 위한 전략사용의 확대방안 및 지속적인 교사전문성 발달 프로그램의 개발에 관한 제언이 제시되었다.

The purpose of this study was to examine practice of strategies childcare teachers use in order to promote peer interaction among young children and difficulties in implementing strategies by using mixed methodology. The participants of current study were 155 inservice childcare teachers and they completed SIPPY questionnaire. To investigate strategy practice with difficulties, 44 teachers participated in theme writing and 3 teachers were interviewed. SIPPY data were analyzed by SPSS 20.0 and theme writing and interview transcripts were coded by qualitative analysis procedure. Results are as follows; First, teachers in this study use more environmental and naturalistic activity strategies than intensive strategies. Depending on educational experience and education level, there was a statistically significant difference. Second, participants reported various natural activity strategies that they use in the classroom such as compliments, modeling, suggestion, cooperative activity plan. Based on the analysis of qualitative data, four categories of difficulties were presented such as environmental component, disconnection with families, child individual characteristics, and teacher component. Implications were discussed in terms of teacher education and teacher driven professional development program.
