The purpose of this study was to examine what parents really want to daycare center and how much they are satisfied with the daycare service they use. This study also explored how exactly daycare teachers recognize the parental needs and satisfaction on daycare service. One hundred and seventy one parents who send their child to a daycare center in Seoul, and one hundred and thirty five teachers from the same daycare centers participated in this study. Parents were asked about their needs and expectation on daycare service and the degree of satisfaction on the daycare center (including educational facilities, teacher's role, specific programs, etc.). Teachers provided answers about their understanding on what the parents want and how much parents are satisfied with their daycare center. Results revealed that parents are generally satisfied with the daycare service such as educational programs and educational facilities and teachers' role conducting. However, some parent-teacher differences were found in their perception on the levels and domains of parental expectation and satisfaction with daycare service. The parent-teacher differences would give very practical tips for teachers, who plan and conduct everyday daycare programs and actually interact with children in the setting for better daycare service.

A survey was conducted by mail using a sample of 337 teachers who were working in 71 child daycare centers in a district in Seoul. Results: 26.5% of the respondents reported that they teach health education regularly, and 19.3% of them reported never teach health education. Deficits of material, knowledge, and skill were the principal reasons for difficulties in health education. All of the respondents identified a need for health education, and also that health professionals are the most appropriate people to teach health education. The priorities of needed health education were, in order: sex education, information on community health, and mental health.

In Germany, community based daycare facilities has been supported by long term care policies since the 1970s. With the legislation of Care Insurance, those policy has been developed further. As the use of daycare facilities decreased and the financial burden for consumers increased, administrators of facilities has been seeking for innovative programs and management methods in order to improve the service. For the same reason, policy makers have been pursuing new regulations of architectural standards of facilities. By looking at legislations (i.e., Law of Care Insurance, Law of Heim, and DIN18025) that stipulate architectural standard of facilities in Germany, this study will identify the development process of architectural change of daycare facilities.

2011년 5세 유아의 누리과정이 도입된 이후로 국내에서도 창의 교육을 통한 통합적 사고를 갖춘 융합적 인재에 대한 관심이 늘고 있다. 하지만 증가하는 보육 수요에 비해 시설과 인력, 예산의 부족으로 인해 국내의 교육 프로그램과 환경은 이에 따라가지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 어린이 창의력 개발을 위한 유아 교육 프로그램의 구축과 이에 걸맞는 공간 기획을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 다음과 같은 순서로 연구를 진행하였다. 첫째, 문헌조사와 유아 보육시설 디자인 관련 자료를 바탕으로 국내에서 운영중인 유아 보육시설과 프로그램에 대하여 조사하였고, 이를 바탕으로 유아보육 프로그램 구축에 대한 방향을 도출하였다. 둘째, 놀이를 통한 창의 교육을 위하여 유아의 놀이 행태 5가지와 조형원리 5가지를 조합하여 유아 교육 프로그램 개발을 위한 프레임웍을 구축하였고, 이를 바탕으로 한 프로그램 구성안을 제시하였다. 셋째, 앞서 구축된 프로그램을 효과적으로 운영하기 위한 보육공간의 조건과 디자인 방향을 도출하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 국내 유아의 창의성 발달을 위한 교육 프로그램 모델 및 공간 기획을 종합적으로 기술하였다. 프레임웍 구축을 통한 지속적인 교육 프로그램 개발 모델이 필요하며 이를 효과적으로 운영하기 위한 공간 또한 중요함을 확인하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to explore trends in institutional evaluation research in early childhood education through keyword network analysis. This aims to understand trends in academic discourse on institutional evaluation and gain implications for follow-up research and related policy directions. Methods: A total of 6,629 keywords were extracted from 572 dissertations and journal articles published from January 2006 to October 2023 for the purpose of analyzing and visualizing the frequency and centrality of keywords, as well as the structural properties of keyword networks. The analysis and visualization were conducted using the TEXTOM, UCINET6, and NetDraw programs. Results: First, the number of institutional evaluation studies increased steadily from 2006 to 2010 and then decreased, with a higher frequency of studies on daycare centers compared to kindergartens. Second, the most frequently occurring keyword in the analysis was 'daycare center,' and the highest connection strength was found in the term 'daycare-center-evaluation.' Third, network analysis revealed that key terms for institutional evaluation research included 'evaluation certification,' 'recognition,' 'evaluation indicators,' 'teacher,' 'daycare center,' and 'kindergarten.' In the ego network analysis for each institution, 'parent' emerged as a highly ranked keyword. Conclusion/Implications: This study confirmed the perspectives of previous studies by revealing the structure of core concepts in early childhood education institution evaluation research, and provided implications for follow-up and direction of institution evaluation
