The purpose of the current study is to investigate parents' understanding and needs for character education in early childhood and during elementary education and to suggest policy implications effective character education for young children. Using focus group interviews, we collected qualitative data from 14 mothers in Seoul, Korea. The mothers were unclear about the definition of character education for their children and about their role in teaching proper values during the early years of their children's development. Most mothers with preschoolers were satisfied with the character education their children were receiving, whereas mothers with children in elementary school were not satisfied with the character education provided by school. The mothers expressed their concerns about the reliability of the teachers and schools of their children. As policy implications, providing regular parent education, activating parent-teacher associations, and strengthening the partnership through support from the community are suggested.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the correlation between anxiety and mastery in hospitalized young children's mothers. Methods: The subjects were 118 mothers of young children who were hospitalized in a pediatric unit. Self-report questionnaires were used to measure the variables of anxiety and mastery. In the data analysis, SPSSWIN 23.0 was used for descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression. Results: The reliability of instruments were found to have a Cronbach's alpha of .84 to .92. Anxiety correlated negatively with mastery (r=-.43, p<.001) and positively with duration of hospitalization (r=.26, p=.004). In multiple regression, mastery and duration of hospitalization were significant predictors of anxiety in hospitalized young children's mothers, explaining 24.0%. Conclusions: Anxiety and mastery were significant variables in hospitalized young children's mothers. A strategy of nursing intervention which decreases anxiety in mothers must be developed by increasing the level of mastery in mothers of hospitalized young children.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine cluster types according to the playfulness factors of young children and to predict the character strengths of young children which have an influence on the types of children's playfulness. Methods: Playfulness and character strength tests were administered to 237 young children. The playfulness groups were classified by cluster analysis and the logistic regression analysis. It was used to find the character strengths of young children that have a effect on the types of children's playfulness. Results: First, the children's playfulness groups were divided into a high playfulness group and a low playfulness group. Second, there was a significant difference in all character strengths according to the children's playfulness cluster, and the high playfulness group was statistically significantly high in all character strengths. Third, the children's character strengths influencing the high playfulness group were vitality and positivity, self-regulation, self-esteem, and sensibility. Conclusion/Implications: Based on these results, the necessity of supporting these character strengths was discussed in order to improve the playfulness of children in the education field.

The program was developed to enhance young children's ability to prepare for climate change. The program consists of 15 30-minute sessions. 38 5-year-olds (23 boys and 15 girls) participated in this program. The effects of this program were evaluated by the pre-school children's knowledge and problem solving abilities preventing climate change. Results showed that there was a significant experimental effect for knowledge of how to prevent climate change. Experimental group showed more knowledge than the control group. Also, there was a significant experimental effect on the problem solving abilities for preventing climate change. The experimental group showed greater problem solving abilities than the control group. The results of program evaluation revealed that this program was helpful for preparing young children for climate change.

This paper recommends flipped learning as a method to improve the learning abilities and the level of software utilization when it comes to using computers in children education institutes. Flipped learning enables a class fully making use of the up-to-date multimedia-related technology. Especially, flipped learning leads a participation-oriented class rather than lecture-based ones. Young child's teachers can, not only improve their capabilities to utilize multimedia, but also manage classes that follow the trend of the fourth industrial revolution. Therefore, this paper introduces the importance of media education when it comes to training preliminary teachers and suggests a flipped learning curriculum. This paper finds significance in future efficient education for raising creative and integrated thinking children.

본 연구에서는 유아영재 51명과 일반유아 51명을 대상으로 한국판 K-ABC의 프로파일을 분석하고 비교하였다. 유아영재와 일반유아의 K-ABC 프로파일을 분석하여 비교하기 위해 상관분석과 교차분석을 실시하였으며 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 일반유아의 경우는 얼굴기억 검사를 제외한 모든 인지처리 하위검사들이 인지 처리과정척도와 정적상관이 유의하였으나 유아영재의 경우는 손동작, 수회생, 얼굴기억, 위치기억검사와의 상관만이 통계적으로 유의하였다. 유아영재의 경우, 인지처리 과정척도와 습득도척도와 유의한 상관이 없었으나 일반유아는 습득도 척도와 유의한 정적 상관이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 유아영재와 일반유아의 인지처리 하위검사와 습득도 하위검사의 강점과 약점에 차이가 있을 것인지를 살펴본 결과, 모든 하위 검사에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 유아영재와 일반영재의 K-ABC종합척도 프로파일을 비교한 결과, 순차처리 동시처리 척도간의 비교와 동시처리척도 습득도척도간의 비교에서는 유의한 차이가 없었으나 유아영재는 습득도 척도에 비해 순차처리척도와 인지처리과정척도의 접수가 높은 경우가 일반유아에 비해 보다 더 많은 것으로 나타났다.
