초록

본 연구의 목적은 영유아의 교육 및 보육과 코로나19 관련 연구동향을 분석하여 향후 연구될 코로나19와 영유아의 삶에 대한 연구주제와 추후 감염병 발생 시 효과적인 관리 대처방안을 위한 연구주제에 시사점을 제공하고자 한다. 이를 위해 2020년 3월부터 2022년 2월까지 발간된 영유아의 교육 및 보육과 코로나19 관련 학술논문과 학위논문 총 129편을 살펴보고, UCINET 6를 활용하여 키워드 네트워크 분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 키워드의 빈도는 ‘코로나19’가 가장 높았으며, ‘원격수업’, ‘현직영유아교사’, ‘예비유아교사’ 등도 높은 빈도를 차지하였다. 둘째, 키워드 네트워크의 중심성을 살펴본 결과 주요 키워드는 ‘코로나19’, ‘원격수업’, ‘현직영유아교사’였다. 셋째, 대표 키워드 ‘코로나19’, ‘원격수업’, ‘현직영유아교사’ 를 중심으로 에고 네트워크 분석을 실시한 결과, ‘코로나19’는 ‘현직영유아교사’와 ‘원격수업’ 간의 연결강도가 높게 나타났으며, ‘원격수업’은 ‘코로나19’, ‘예비유아교사’ 간의 연결강도가높게 나타났고, ‘현직영유아교사’는 ‘코로나19’와 ‘원격수업’ 간의 연결강도가 높게 나타났다. 연구결과를 토대로 영유아의 교육 및 보육과 코로나19 관련 연구의 범위를 확대 및 심화하여영유아의 발달 및 심리적 측면과 부모, 교사, 교육기관 등에 관한 연구의 필요성을 제언하는바이다

The purpose of this study was to suggest promising research insights related to young children’s lives during COVID-19 as well as to infection diseases prevention based on analysis of the recent research trends in early childhood education and care during COVID-19. To this end, a total of 129 journal papers and theses related to early childhood education and care during COVID-19 published between March 2020 and February 2022 were collected and investigated via keyword network analysis using UCINET 6. The results of this study are as follows. First, ‘COVID-19’ was the most frequent keyword in this field of research, and ‘distance learning’, ‘in-service early childhood teachers’, and ‘pre-service early childhood teachers’ were also frequently represented in the journal papers and theses. Second, as a result of analyzing the centrality of keywords for early childhood education and care during COVID-19, the three terms, ‘COVID-19’, ‘distance learning’, and ‘in-service early childhood teachers’ were included among the top keywords. Third, based on the results of the analysis of the ego network focused on ‘COVID-19’, ‘distance learning’, and ‘in-service early childhood teachers’, ‘COVID-19’ showed high-level weight connections between ‘in-service early childhood teachers’ and ‘distance learning’. ‘Distance learning’ showed high-level weight connections between ‘COVID-19’ and ‘pre-service early childhood teachers’. Finally, ‘in-service early childhood teachers’ showed high-level weight connections between ‘COVID-19’ and ‘distance learning’. Based on these findings, further research is needed related to young children’s development and psychological aspects as well as to their parents, teachers, and early childhood education centers in the context of early childhood education and care during COVID-19.
