보육교사의 팀티칭 경험에 따른 교사효능감 및 영유아 권리존중 보육실행 수준 분석

초록

This study aims to analyze different levels of teacher efficacy and childcare practice (rights-securing childcare) depending on preschool teacher’s team teaching (TT) experiences and related experiential and procedural variables. Survey included 230 preschool teachers working at preschools in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do areas. The study found that teachers with TT experiences during the given curriculum year scored higher on teacher efficacy than those with no TT experience and also scored higher on rights-securing childcare than those currently non-participating in TT but having prior experience as well as those with no TT experience. The study also found that levels of teacher efficacy and rights-securing childcare were generally higher with more experience in TT, with similar teaching beliefs and approaches among TT teachers, with clearly defined and assigned roles among TT teachers, and with regular meetings. These results suggest the potential efficacy of TT on preschool teacher’s teacher efficacy and childcare practice respecting children’s rights, and offer practical tips for effective operation of TT system in preschool settings.
