  • The purpose of the study was to examine early childhood teachers' content knowledge of economic education. The subjects, 60 early childhood teachers, were asked to draw concept maps about early childhood economic education. Their concept maps were analyzed in terms of superordinate and subordinate concepts by contents and frequencies. The results were as follows. First, 248 superordinate concepts were shown, and they were categorized into nine representative terms: 'Scarcity and Choice,' 'Decision Making,' 'Monetary Value,' 'Production,' 'Consumption,' 'Distribution,' 'Restrain,' 'Reuse,' and 'Economic Education Activity.' Second, 1,440 subordinate concepts were shown, and 'coin,' 'bill,' 'saving,' 'bank,' and 'money' were frequently shown. Third, the mean numbers of subordinate concepts per superordinate concepts showed that early childhood teachers had more knowledge about 'Consumption,' 'Monetary Value,' and 'Economic Education Activity' than other superordinate concepts. The results showed the need for early childhood teachers to have more systematic and hierarchical pedagogical content knowledge on economic education.

  • 본 연구는 개념도 분석을 통해 유아교사의 유아영양교육 내용에 대한 지식과 지식수준이 어떠한지를 파악하기 위해 실시되었다. 대구 경북지역 유아교사 105명을 대상으로 유아영양교육 내용에 대한 개념도를 작성하도록 한 후 개념도 분석을 하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 유아교사의 유아영양교육 내용에 대한 지식을 살펴본 결과, 상위개념 빈도가 가장 높은 것은 식습관이었고, 유아영양교육 내용요소별 재분류한 결과 빈도가 가장 높은 것은 청결과 위생이었다. 둘째, 유아교사의 유아영양교육 내용에 대한 지식수준을 살펴본 결과, 상위개념에 포함된 종속개념 수와 위계의 평균이 가장 높은 것은 식문화였고, 특성점수에서는 음식이 가장 높았다. 밀도는 비슷한 수준으로 분포되어 있었다. 본 연구결과를 통해 교사가 유아영양교육 내용에 대해 보다 위계적, 조직적, 통합적 지식을 갖고 교육현장에서 활용할 수 있도록 돕는 교사교육이 필요함을 시사 받을 수 있다.
