Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the recognition and qualities of early childhood coding education in childcare center teachers. Methods: 158 childcare center teachers responded to 56 questions on a questionnaire extracted and revised from previous research. Frequency analysis and one-way ANOVA were applied for the data analysis. Results: Many teachers agreed that the software education policy was timely appropriate. Most of them needed the education in order to improve children's creativity and problem solving ability, and answered that it is appropriate to start the education at age 5. Most of them recognized that small group and free choice activities, play activities linked with daily life topics and coding programs by the childcare center teachers were desirable as educational methods. Provision of educational HW/SW environment was a relatively important element for effective implementation of the education. The coding educational qualities perceived by the teachers were not high, and were related to the age of the children they were in charge of and their computer literacy.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of children's age and their fathers' childrearing involvement on the social morality of young children. Methods: The data were gathered from parents who had 3-5 year old children enrolled in daycare centers and from their daycare teachers. The parents answered questions about their children's socio-demographic background and the father's childrearing involvement. And the teachers rated children's social morality. The data from a total of 245 questionnaires were analyzed by SPSS 25.0. Results: First, there was a statistically significant difference between young children's morality score and convention score. Young children's morality scores were higher than their convention scores. Second, children's age was a significant influential factor on both their moral and conventional social morality. Third, father's care-discipline had the only impact on children's conventional social morality. That is, children's social morality was higher when their fathers gave them more care and guidance. Forth, an interaction effect between children's age and father's development-support on children's conventional social morality was found. Conclusion/Implications: The results from this study suggest that a differentiated approach is needed according to the types of childrearing involvement of fathers in order to improve children's social morality.

본 연구는 만 1세 영아를 둔 어머니가 인식하는 어린이집 초기 적응과정 및 적응프로그램에 관하여 서울시에 거주하며 첫 아이가 18개월 또는 20개월에 어린이집에 처음 입소한 4명의 어머니를 대상으로 한 사례연구이다. 집단 및 개별면담을 통해 수집된 자료를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 둘째 임신 또는 입소통보전화를 받고 갑작스레 어린이집 입소를 결정하게 되었으며 자녀의 입소를 위해 어린이집 첫 방문 시 30분 내외의 짧은 시간 어머니가 본 교사의 인상과 말투, 표정 등이 어린이집을 선택하는데 큰 영향을 주었다. 분리불안 행동을 보이는 영아뿐 아니라 어머니도 적응과정을 겪었다. 어머니와 교사의 소통과 노력을 통해 어머니들은 영아가 적응해나감을 느낄 수 있었다. 둘째, 만 1세 영아의 적응과정을 통해 어머니가 인식한 적응프로그램의 차이에 대해서는 기관별로 프로그램 안내 및 실행에 있어 큰 차이를 보였다. 본 연구의 참여자들은 어린이집 유형과 상관없이 보편적이고 통합적인 적응프로그램이 필요하다고 생각하고 있었다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 국가수준의 만 1세 영아를 위한 어린이집 적응프로그램을 개발하는데 기초자료가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
