The purpose of this study was to investigate into the recognition and the needs for child abuse, targeting teachers who are working at the preschool education institutions based on the realities and the present status of child abuse, with focusing on child abuse within home, and to present an educational model available for practice targeting preschoolers and parents at the preschool education institutions, based on the results.
The following are the problems of a research, which were established in this study.
1) What about teachers' recognition and request for the development of an educational model aiming to prevent child abuse?
(1) What about the overall recognition and practice aiming to prevent child abuse?
(2) What about the necessity of an educational model and the request for its direction aiming to prevent child abuse?
(3) What about the request for the contents of an educational model aiming to prevent child abuse?
2) How can it be formed an educational model aiming to prevent child abuse practicable at preschool education institutions?
In putting forward a preventively educational model aiming to prevent child abuse, this study was progressed by largely dividing into two stages.
First, as a stage of preliminary survey in a bid to develop an educational model aiming to prevent child abuse, it carried out questionnaire research targeting 253 teachers by randomly selecting preschool education institutions where are located in Seoul, Busan, Ulsan, Gyeongbuk, and Gyeongnam areas. The analysis of materials collected, was calculated with basic statistics such as frequency, percentage, average and standard deviation, by utilizing SPSS WIN(12.O) program.
Second, it made up an educational model to prevent child abuse based on the primary preliminary survey, and this process was participated together the relevant experts in addition to this researcher.
Accordingly, given simply summing up the results of this study, those are as follows.
First, in the preliminary survey related to seriousness of child abuse, was shown recognition in high level, and it was said to be required a preventively educational model aiming to prevent child abuse.
