Abstract

The purpose of this study is to perform of composition of young children teacher's verbal interactions and problem solving strategies by semantic network analysis. The data was collected the narrative of teacher in young children's environmental education. Additionally, this study used categories as a unit of analysis in order to find out structural characteristics. The results of this study were as follows. First, teacher's verbal interactions, providing information was the most cental, high influence appeared along with integration. Second, teacher's problem solving strategies, suggestion was the most cental, high influence appeared along with divergent thinking. Third, teacher's verbal interactions and problem solving strategies, suggestion was the most cental, providing information and divergent thinking appeared a strong connection. Besides, suggestion and decision were mediated by concern of problem, assessment appeared connection. Through these results from this study it is suggested that in order to interact and support problem solving process in young children's environmental education, teacher education to respond and understand contextually with young children is necessary.

본 연구의 목적은 언어네트워크를 활용하여 교사의 언어적 상호작용과 문제해결전략의 구성을 살펴보고자 함이다. 본 연구에서는 유아환경교육 과정에서 발생한 교사의 발화를 수집하여, 범주를 개발하고 자료를 코딩하여 하위범주 간의 관계를 분석하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교사의 언어적 상호작용에서는 정보제공하기가 가장 중심에 위치하여 통합하기와 함께 높은 영향력을 보였다. 둘째, 교사의 문제해결전략에서는 제안이 가장 중심에 위치하여 확산적 사고와 높은 영향력을 보였다. 셋째, 교사의 언어적 상호작용과 문제해결력을 종합적으로 살펴보면, 제안이 가장 중심에 위치하고, 정보제공하기, 확산적 사고 등이 강한 연결성을 보였다. 이외에 제안과 의사결정이 문제관심을 매개로 평가와 연결성을 보였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 유아환경교육에 있어 교사가 유아의 문제해결과정을 지원하여 상호작용하기 위해서 유아의 반응에 맥락적으로 반응하고 이해할 수 있는 교사의 역량강화 교육이 필요함을 시사한다.
