유아교육현장에서의 중도장애유아 통합교육 실천을 위한 이론적 고찰 및 시사점 모색 = Review on Inclusion of Young Children with Severe Disabilities and Implications for Effective Inclusion in Early Childhood Education

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 유아교사교육자, 예비 및 현직유아교사들에게 유아교육기관에서 중도장애유아와의 성공적 통합을 실천하기 위한 역량개발의 자료를 제공하기 위해 다음의 세 가지 주제를 중심으로 고찰하고 교육적 시사점을 제안하였다. 첫째, 중도장애유아 통합교육의 필요성과 이점, 둘째, 중도장애유아 통합교육에 대한 우려와 극복방안, 셋째, 국내 중도장애유아통합교육 활성화를 위한 적용이다. 연구 결과, 유아교육에서 장애유아와의 통합교육의 법적 및 교육적 당위성은 더욱 강조되고 있으며, 여러 연구를 통해 교육 효과적 측면에서 통합교육이 비장애유아 및 장애유아 모두의 발달에 이상적인 교육실천임이 밝혀지고 있다.
그러나 유아교사 및 부모들에게 유아교육환경에서 중도장애유아의 통합교육에 대한 필요성 인식은 부족한 실정이며, 이로 인해 중도장애유아의 통합교육에 대한 실천의 중요성이많이 간과되고 있다. 하지만 최근 여러 실증적 연구를 통해 유아교육환경에서 비장애유아와 중도장애유아가 주체가 되는 통합교육은 다양한 발달적 요구를 가진 또래와의 상호작용의 기회를 늘리고 비장애유아 및 중도장애유아 모두의 발달측면에 긍정적 효과가 있음이증명되고 있다. 이러한 고찰을 바탕으로 유아교육환경에서 비장애유아 및 중도장애유아와의 효과적 통합교육 실천을 위한 교수전략을 비롯한 교육실천적 시사점을 제안하였다.
