The purpose of the study is to review research in concept, measurement, effect, and influence factor of teacher efficacy. Through the review of previous research, the study shows that the concept of teacher efficacy is likely to be situation-specific rather than teacher characteristic. And the study represents that the measurement of teacher efficacy is related to the development of measurement instrument and the extraction of construct. The effect of teacher efficacy concerns the relationship between teacher efficacy and the student's academic achievement and affective traits such as motivation, interests, and attitude, and the relationship between teacher efficacy and teacher. And the influence factor of teacher efficacy concerns the influence of job environment related to teacher. The four things mentioned above are discussed in detail based on the previous research.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of communication and cooperation between teachers and parents on infant care. Specifically, this study explored the direct effect of teacher-parent partnership on teacher-infant interactions and the indirect effect through teacher sensitivity. Methods: The participants of this study were 216 teachers in charge of infant classes at child care centers located in Gyeonggi-do. They responded to questionnaires on teacher-parent partnership, their sensitivity, and teacher-infant interactions. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Results: First, teacher-parent partnership did not have a direct impact on teacher-infant interactions. Second, teacher-parent partnership indirectly influenced teacher-infant interactions through teacher sensitivity. In other words, a high level of teacher-parent partnership was associated with a high level of sensitivity, subsequently resulting in the provision of high-quality interactions for infants. Conclusion/Implications: This study confirmed the role of teacher sensitivity as a mechanism to explain how teacher-parent partnership is linked to teacher-child interactions. The results emphasize the importance of communication and cooperation between teachers and parents in enhancing teachers' sensitivity and, ultimately, providing high-quality child care to infants.

본 연구는 유치원 교사의 공감능력과 가정연계효능감이 교사-학부모 관계 인식과 교사소진에 미치는 효과가 어떠한지, 그리고 공감능력과 유치원 교사가 인식하는 교사-학부모 관계 및 교사소진의 관계에서 가정연계효능감의 조절효과가 유의한지를 확인하고자 하는 목적으로 수행되었다. 이를 위해 충북지역에 근무하는 공·사립 유치원 교사 208명을 대상으로 설문을 실시하였고, JAMOVI 1.6.23을 활용하여 응답자료를 분석하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 유치원 교사의 공감능력과 가정연계효능감 모두 교사-학부모 관계 인식에 유의한 정적효과를 보였다. 둘째, 유치원 교사의 공감능력과 교사-학부모 관계 인식에서 가정연계효능감의 유의한 조절효과가 나타났다. 구체적으로 유치원 교사의 가정연계효능감이 높을 때(M+1SD) 공감능력이 높을수록 교사-학부모 관계 인식이 유의하게 높아졌으며, 가정연계효능감이 평균 수준이거나 낮을 때(M-1SD)는 공감능력이 교사-학부모 관계 인식에 미치는 효과가 유의하지 않았다. 셋째, 유치원 교사의 공감능력과 가정연계효능감 모두 교사소진에 유의한 부적효과를 나타냈으며, 공감능력과 교사소진의 관계에서 가정연계효능감의 조절효과는 유의하지 않았다. 본 연구는 유치원 교사가 인식한 교사-학부모 관계와 교사소진에 있어 공감능력과 가정연계효능감의 역할을 확인하고, 특히 공감능력이 교사-학부모 관계 인식에 미치는 효과가 가정연계효능감 수준에 따라 조절됨을 확인함으로써 가정연계효능감의 중요성을 인식하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

The enhancement of the quality of the teaching practice is a major factor in securing better schooling opportunities for students. In this article, initial teacher preparation of secondary school Earth science teachers, in-service science teacher education, and improving teacher policy are discussed. Data from in-depth interviews with exemplary science teachers were used to explore how to improve the quality of science teacher education in Korea. In terms of preservice teacher education, most exemplary teachers contended that teacher education programs should provide preservice teachers with practical knowledge by translating theory into practice. Their suggestions for how to improve in-service education are also discussed. Regarding directions of improving teacher policy in Korea, the teachers proposed an alternative teacher-promotion structure that incorporates the master-teacher position.
