Focusing on the themes of biases and teaching medium/methods applied in the research, it tends to enhance general understanding about anti-bias education activities for young children. For this purpose, a total of 125 research papers published from 1995- 2017 dealing with anti-bias activities/programs for young children were analyzed. The results of this study were as follows: In terms of the period of research, almost half of the studies (53 studies) were conducted from 2000- 2004. Regarding the themes of biases covered in the education activities, single bias related activities included 64.8% of the total studies reviewed, and the main themes of bias included disability and gender. In studies that included multiple bias themes, more than half investigated from three to five different bias themes, including appearance, family, disability, gender, race, and culture. The most common teaching medium/method applied in activities was children's story, accounting for 60.8% of all activities.

본 연구는 서울시 고등학생을 대상으로 에이즈에 대한 낙관적 편견을 인구 사회적 특성에 따라 파악하고, 에이즈 지식, 에이즈에 대한 낙인 및 사회적 거리감 등의 변수, 관연도와 낙관적 편견과의 관련성을 확인함으로써 에이즈 예방교육 및 메시지 개발에 도움을 주고자 한다. 본 연구에서 조사 대상 모집단은 서울시 소재 고등학생이 대상이다. 표집은 인문계 고등학교 6개교와 실업계 고등학교 2개교를 지역별로 무작위로 추출한 후 각 학년별로 2개 반을 무작위로 뽑아 그 반을 모두 조사하는 방법을 이용하였다. 총 1537부의 설문지가 배포되어 모두 수거되었으며. 이 중 응답이 불성실한 설문지 21부를 제외한 총 1,516부(98.1%)가 분석에 사용되었다. 본 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 에이즈 감염에 대한 낙관적 편견이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 낙관적 편견에 대한 인구 사회적 특성을 살펴보면 여학생이 남학생 보다(p<.05), 성적이 상, 중인 학생이 하인 학생보다(p<.05) 유의하였다. 셋째, 낙관적 편견과 에이즈 지식 간에는 유의하지 않았다. 낙관적 편견과 관여도는 부의 상관관계를 보여 관여도가 클수록 낙관적 편견이 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며, 자기존중감과 자기통제감이 클수록 낙관적 편견이 큰 것으로 나타났다((r=.17, p<.01, r=.25, p<.01). 넷째, 에이즈에 관한 낙관적 편견에 미치는 영향력을 검토한 결과 성별, 성적은 낙관적 편견에 유의하지 않았으나 관여도, 자기존중감 및 자기통제감은 유의하였다($R^2$=.112, F=31.655) 결론적으로 관여도, 자기존중감, 자기통제감은 에이즈에 대한 낙관적 편견에 영향을 미치는 요인임이 확인 되었다. 이러한 결과는 청소년들을 대상으로 하는 에이즈 예방교육을 계획할 때에 단순히 정보나 지식을 전달하는 것뿐만 아니라 그들이 갖고 있는 신념과 행동을 변화시키는 여러 요인들에 대하여도 충분히 검토해 볼 필요성이 있음을 시사한다.

In Korea, the number of foreigners reached about 1,260,000. So we are now living in a multicultural society. There are more than 36,000 multicultural students in kindergarten, elementary, middle, and high school(2010's standards). In other words, Still more multicultural students are expected to increase in the future. As a matter of fact, one of the biggest problems which mixed couples and immigrants from other countries have had is most concerned about possible bias and discrimination of their children. Study has shown that multicultural students are alienated from the others at school, because of their skin colours, the pronunciation they speak Korean, and maladjustment in their school life. Actually, multi-cultural education program should be applied to the first grade in elementary school. Besides, teachers have to direct multicultural and general students with integrated education. Study also found that it is necessary to use more visuals and pictures as the main multi-cultural education. And books and CDs should be used as guide materials. It's desirable that the appropriate time to teach relate to lesson.

This study investigated perceptions of early childhood teachers about children of Female International Marriage Migrants(FIMM) and their classroom conditions. Data was collected from 117 teachers of kindergartens and day care centers in Jeonnam Province using a 28-item inventory composed of classroom conditions and perceptions of teachers about the children of FIMM. Results showed that over 70% of teachers' students were children of FIMM. Children's traits included poor language skills, confusion of identity, and socio-emotional problems due to passive interaction with peers. Programs specifically for FIMM and their children are rare. Teachers considered difficulties teaching children of FIMM are due to lack of economic support, hardship of managing multicultural curriculum, restrictions in application of that curriculum, and institutional inertia.

Ninety-eight bestselling children's picture books from 2008 to 2014 were analyzed for multicultural education. The criteria used for the analysis included Culture, Diversity, Identity, Equity, Anti-bias, and Cooperation that were drawn from Kim & Park (2011). An examination of the books revealed that they contained concepts of Cooperation, Identity, Culture, and Diversity in their orders of frequency while ideas of Equity and Anti-bias were barely depicted. Differences between domestic and translated books were found. Translated picture books reflected Diversity more frequently than domestic ones. Under a criterion of Culture, Recognizing Differences and Similarities was more frequently portrayed in translated books while Respecting for Cultures was more frequently found in domestic ones. Findings were discussed in terms of bestselling picture books' limitations of dealing with critical multicultural issues, domestic picture books' lack of reflection of changing multicultural realities, fantasy picture books'dealing with critical multicultural issues through metaphors, and possible problems of the books conveying biased or confusing messages. It was suggested that an adult's role is essential when the bestselling literature is used for the purpose of multicultural education. Their deliberate guidance can help young children engaged in critical issues of race, gender, and ability and develop their multicultural sensitivities through literature.
