This qualitative study explored the causes of student teacher stress during an early childhood teaching practicum and investigated the ways in which student teachers cope with this stress. Four student teachers in the same practicum placement were individually interviewed. The findings revealed that stress arose over a variety of concerns including both lack of professional knowledge related to the teaching practice and the challenges involved in establishing a positive relationship with their cooperating teacher, the parents and staff. The stress experienced by the student teacher was accompanied by physical symptoms such as exhaustion, fatigue, and the onset of vulnerability to colds. However, the students were found to be generally unsuccessful in managing their stress effectively. The results suggest that attempts to improve the practicum environment should be accompanied by academic interests and practical issues related to these stresses and that there is a clear need for programs designed to assist student teachers develop stress management skills.

본 연구는 예비 영·유아교사들의 교육실습, 교사 효능감, 정서지능이 교육헌신에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보고 이들 간의 관계를 밝혀보는 다각적인 분석을 통해 예비 영·유아교사들의 교육헌신 태도를 함양시키고자 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 2018년도 11월 1일부터 2019년도 3월까지 수도권 전문대학의 예비 영·유아교사 75명을 대상으로 150개의 설문을 배부하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 PASS Statistics 18.0 프로그램을 사용하여 통계처리하였으며 각 요인들이 교육헌신에 주는 영향력과 영향관계를 밝히기 위해 상관분석 및 다중회귀 분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 예비 영·유아교사들의 교육헌신은 교사효능감, 정서지능, 실습경험들과 정적상관을 보였으며, 실습경험 전이나 실습경험 후에도 교육헌신은 교사효능감이나 정서지능과 정적 상관관계를 보이고 있었다. 둘째, 예비영유아교사의 경우 교육실습경험 전에는 정서지능이 높아지면 교육 헌신이 높아지는 것으로 나타났으며 교육실습의 경험을 쌓은 이후에는 교사효능감이 높아지면 교육헌신이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 예비 영·유아교사들의 교육헌신을 높이기 위해서 교육실습전에는 정서지능 역량을 강화할 수 있는 프로그램이나 내용교육이 효과적이고, 교육 실습 이후에는 교사 효능감 역량을 강화할 수 있는 프로그램이나 내용교육이 보다 효과적임을 시사하고 있다.

The instruments for this study were the Teacher's Image Scale, Practicum Anxiety Scale, Self-efficacy Scale, and a questionnaire for socio-demographic variables. The collected data were analyzed by using a t -test, F test, Pearson's partial correlation, and multiple regression with SPSS software (version 20.0). The results were as follows: First, the student teachers expressed higher practicum anxiety in a provincial area than in metropolitan city, and their self-efficacy was higher in public kindergarten than in private kindergarten. Further, the highest level of the teacher's image was obtained in the case of student teachers who enrolled in a 2- or 3-year college program and completed the practicum in the metropolitan city. Second, there was a significant negative correlation between the sum of student teachers' practicum anxiety and their professional skills of teacher's image as well as significant correlations between the sum of student teachers' practicum anxiety and their self-efficacy, except self-control efficacy. Finally, the student teachers' practicum anxiety was found to be 17.5%-24.4% and was explained the most by the confidence of self-efficacy.
