초록

본 연구는 유아교육기관의 그림책 제공 실태와 교사의 인식을 알아보기 위한 것이다. 연구 대상은 유치원과 어린이집에 근무하고 있는 교사 356명이며 질문지를 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 그림책 제공 실태에 대한 분석 결과, 첫째, 교실에 제공된 그림책 수는 20권 이하라고 응답한 비율이 가장 높았으며 기관유형, 교육경력, 교사학력, 전공분야, 담당 연령에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 학급에 있는 그림책을 교체해 주는 시기에 대해서는 생활주제가 바뀔 때 모두 교체한다고 응답한 경우가 가장 많았으며 지역 규모별에 따른 차이가 유의미하게 나타났다. 셋째, 그림책을 제공할 때 고려하는 사항은 생활주제가 가장 높게 나타났으며 담당연령별로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 그림책 제공에 대한 교사 인식을 분석한 결과 첫째, 교실에 그림책을 제공할 때 교사들은 사실그림책을 선호하는 것으로 나타났으며 변인별 차이는 없었다. 둘째, 그림책을 통한 기대효과에 대해서는 책읽기에 대한 흥미 증진이 가장 높은 비율로 나타났으며 변인에 따른 유의한 차이는 없었다. 본 연구의 결과는 문해 교육을 위한 환경의 편차를 줄이기 위한 기준 도입이 필요하다는 것과 문해 환경으로서의 그림책의 중요성 및 활용에 대한 교사교육이 필요함을 시사한다.
