Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the needs of experts in childhood education field on what is the primary core competency of the beginning childhood teachers to cope with the future society. For this, the survey was conducted for 252 of teachers in charge, assistant directors, and directors who are currently working at the daycare centers and kindergartens in Busan and Gyeongsangnamdo. In order to derive the requirement and priority on the core competencies required to beginning childhood teachers, 3-step analysis method of paired t-Test, Borich Needs Model Analysis, and the Locus for Focus was used. As a result, seven sub-competencies of five competencies of cooperation, communication, self-improvement and development, vocational ethics, and emotional intelligence was identified as the core competencies required by priority to the beginning childhood teachers in order to cope with the future society. These results may provide the basic data for designing the competence and field-based curriculum in the teachers' training schools for pre-service childhood teachers.

본 연구의 목적은 미래사회에 대응하기 위해 초임 유아교사에게 우선적으로 요구되는 핵심역량이 무엇인지 유아교육현장 전문가의 요구를 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위해 부산광역시와 경상남도의 어린이집 및 유치원에 재직 중인 주임교사, 원감, 원장 252명을 연구대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 초임 유아교사에게 요구되는 미래의 핵심역량에 대한 요구도와 우선순위를 도출하기 위해 PASW 20.0 프로그램을 이용하여 대응표본 t-검증, Borich 요구도 분석, The Locus for Focus 모델 등의 3단계 분석방법을 활용하였다. 그 결과, 협업, 의사소통, 자기관리 및 개발, 직업윤리, 감성지능 등 5개 역량의 7개 하위역량이 미래사회에 대응하기 위해 초임 유아교사에게 우선적으로 요구되는 핵심역량으로 파악되었다. 이러한 결과는 예비유아교사를 양성하는 교원양성기관에서 현장중심 역량기반 교육과정을 설계하는데 기초자료를 제공해 줄 수 있으리라 사료된다.
