본 연구는 유치원교사의 근무년수별 컴퓨터활용의 차이와 유아를 위한 컴퓨터교육의 실태를 알아보고자 함에 목적을 두고 있다. 이에 따른 연구결과를 보면 유치원교사의 근무년수별 컴퓨터활용도에서는 유의한 차이가 나타났고 ($x^2$=138.486, df=36, p＜.001), 유치원교사의 근무년수별 컴퓨터를 배우고자하는 선호도에서도 유의한 차이가 나타났지만 ($x^2$=519.566, df=64 p＜.001), 유치원교사의 근무년수별 컴퓨터활용프로그램에서는 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. ($x^2$=75.42, df=80, p＞.50) 이는 유치원교사의 컴퓨터활용이 유아를 위한 교육목적위주로 이루지는 것이 아니라 문서관리외에 다른 용도로 이루어짐을 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 유치원교사의 컴퓨터을 이용한 교육적 활용을 위한 프로그램개발과 연구가 지속적 이루어져야 함을 시사한다.
