Participants were 10 kindergarten teachers; data were collected through lesson plans, videos of classes, and interviews with teachers. Results showed that (1) selection of songs focused on words of a song rather than musical concepts; ignoring development of the musical level of the children. (2) Goal-setting ignored musical concepts. (3) Class management confused musical concepts with other concepts. (4) No evaluation of musical concepts was undertaken.

본 연구는 어린이집 교사의 2019 개정 누리과정 놀이중심 교육 경험의 실제와 인식을 구체적으로 파악하여 유아교육 현장의 현실적 지원 정책을 마련하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 현 누리과정 교육 경험이 있는 서울 및 경기도 소재 어린이집 교사를 대상으로 개별 심층면담을 실시하였으며, 수집한 자료는 Hatch(2002)의 유형적 분석과 해석적 분석 그리고 Seidman(2006)의 면담 자료분석을 사용하여 시사점을 도출하였다. 본 연구 결과 첫째, 유치원과 어린이집은 동일한 통합 개정 누리과정을 적용하고 있지만, 어린이집은 보육적 관점과 안전을 더 고려한 교육을 지향하고 있다. 둘째, 교사들은 유아들이 주체가 되는 자기주도적인 열린 놀이활동 연계과정에서 교육적 매칭에 어려움이 존재하였다. 셋째, 교사들의 놀이활동에 대한 교육적 이해와 가치 파악 능력은 유아 상호작용 및 유대관계 성장에 기여한다. 결론적으로 현 누리과정의 효과적인 교육 시행을 위한 교사교육과 교류지원 그리고 유아비율 조정의 국가적 정책 방안이 시급하다.

Purpose: The present study is a descriptive research on the content of sex education conducted at home by the mothers of young children who are attending five kindergartens located in Busan, Korea. This study aims to provide basic materials for systematic sex education at home and in the school. Method: Based on the literature review and prior researches, the writer made a questionnaire consisting of 30 items regarding necessities, contents and difficulties of sex education. The 307 questionnaires were collected out of 480 which were distributed by the kindergarten teachers. Data was analysed with frequency and percentage using the SPSS Win 10.0 Program. The main subjects of the study were mothers in their thirties, who understood the necessity of sex education. However, they were lack of enough sexual knowledge in accordance with the transforming sexual culture and lack of suitable materials. They did not plan to educate their children according to their developmental stages, but just taught them verbally rather than using common materials for the situation. Result Regarding the origin of life that children often asks, mothers did not give a scientific and correct response to satisfy their curiosity about sex, saying that a baby was created after marrying a loved one. While more mothers than the prior research responded correctly to the queries of the path of delivery, some mothers did not. It may cause some children to suppress the questions, which may result a distorted sexual knowledge. That is because mothers understood that sex education was to deliver sexual knowledge, but not realized that sex education was a human education carried out throughout life. Mothers fell short of sexual knowledge, capability, and confidence, comparing with swift social changes and children's capacity. As a result, it is necessary to inspire sexual awareness into mothers and educate them through training. It is also needed to secure a training program similar to a teacher training program. Conclusion: It is essential to develop and to provide evaluation tools as well as proper materials in accordance with the children's developmental stage, so that organic management system among home, education institute and society must lead sex education Further, it is necessary to provide teaching methods and materials to mothers regularly, so that the school and home may conduct sex education together to cope with difficulties.
