The total of participants was 372 of this number, 122 were student teachers, 118 were beginning teachers and 132 were experienced teachers. The results showed the difference in difficulties and the needed support requests among student teachers, beginning teachers and experienced teachers. Student teachers had the difficulty of time management, but beginning teachers and experienced teachers had trouble due to the nonexistence of assistant teachers. Student teachers required teaching strategies for starting relationships with children within responsibility. Beginning teachers and experienced teachers regarded the plan, practice, and evaluation of a program as the most needed support request. Collectively, the results revealed that expansion of the practice period is necessary for student teachers so that they can gain experience with children, parents, and the children's education institution with various opportunities as a learning course.

본 연구는 방사선 이해교육에 대한 유치원 교사들의 인식과 요구를 분석하고, 방사선에 대한 유아교육기관에서의 올바른 이해와 방사선 노출로 인한 유아안전 대책 마련을 위한 기초자료를 제공하는데 의의가 있다. 본 연구에서는 2014년 8월 C시와 G시의 유치원 교사 300명을 대상으로 설문지를 배부하여 회수된 158명의 자료를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는, 첫째, 유치원 교사들의 방사선에 대한 이해수준 낮았으며, 방사선에 대한 이해수준이 낮을수록 방사선의 일반적인 유해성과 피폭유해성에 대한 심리적 불안감은 높은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유치원 교사들의 방사선 이해교육 정도는 낮았으나, 유치원 교사들의 방사선 이해교육의 필요성 및 요구는 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 방사선에 대한 올바른 이해를 돕기 위한 교사교육이 시급함을 시사한다.
