Abstract

This study examined the effects of cooperative art activities according to visiting a forest on fulfilling young children's leadership ability and happiness. To achieve this, a study was conducted on experimental and non-experimental groups of 20 young children in classes A and B at S kindergarten, and also a group of children of the same age in a similar environment. The 16-session forest experience play activity program was planned for conducting research on the children's leadership ability and happiness fullness when using the Nuri curriculum, and this was carried out on the experimental group for 2 months. The pre- and post-analyses were carried out on the non-experimental group after outdoor activities on the topic of the Nuri curriculum-related activities. The results were as follows. First, cooperative art activities through the forest experience had a positive effect on the children's reinvention ability, human relations, goal achievement and direction power, which are all sub-factors of their leadership. Second, cooperative art activities through the forest experience had a positive effect on positive emotions, commitment, personal relations, meaning and achievement, which are sub-factors of their total happiness. Overall, their cooperative art activities during the forest experience were judged to be facilitating factors that have a positive effect on their leadership and happiness fullness.

본 연구는 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동이 유아의 리더십과 행복충만감에 미치는 효과를 밝히는데 목적을 갖고 S어린이집의 A반 유아 실험집단 20명과 B반 유아 통제집단 20명을 대상으로 동일연령의 환경이 비슷한 집단을 선정하여 실험하였다. 실험집단에는 유아의 리더십과 행복 충만감에 대해 누리과정과 연계하여 연구의 목적에 맞추어 계획한 2개월간 16차시의 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동 프로그램을 실시하고 통제집단에는 누리과정연계활동을 주제로 실외활동을 한 후 사전사후분석을 진행하였다. 연구 결과 첫째, 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동이 유아의 리더십의 하위요인인 재창조능력, 인간관계, 목표달성, 통솔력에서 모두 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 둘째, 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동이 유아의 행복충만감의 하위요인인 긍정적정서, 몰입, 관계, 의미, 성취에서 모두 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 결과적으로 유아의 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동이 유아의 리더십과 행복충만감에 긍정적인 효과를 나타내는 기제와 동시에 촉진요소임이 판정되었다. 이는 유아의 숲 체험 협동 미술 활동이 유아에게 놀이를 제공하는 교육적 경험을 제공함으로써 유아들의 즐거움과 행복충만감을 촉진하게 됨을 의미한다.
