Popis: | 力量のある保育者を養成するため、人間形成学科では、2009 年度より1年次科目「乳幼児観察研究」を開設した。同科目では、最初に、参与観察の方法、観察記録のまとめ方についての説明し、4月下旬より学生たちはグループ(1グループ4~5名)に分かれ、3ヶ月間にわたり、幼稚園と保育所で半日間参与観察を行うのだが、同じ幼稚園および保育所で3回ずつ定期的、継続的に参与観察することにより、学生たちは、子どもたちの保育現場での生活や行動の理解を深めることができた。3年目となる2011 年度は、観察のポイントを説明してから学生がフィールドに出るようにしたところ、観察の視点、記録のとり方に効果がみられた。保育者養成教育において、入学1年目前期に行うこの「乳幼児観察研究」は、乳幼児理解、保育者理解、環境構成の理解を促進するだけではなく、教育課程上の他の科目とも連動して大きな効果が上げられることが示唆された。 The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how participatory fi eldwork at kindergartens and day-care centers from 2009 was eff ective in cultivating superior professional abilities in fi rst year students studying to become kindergarten teachers or child care workers. The participating students were divided into groups each consisting of four or five students, and participated in fieldwork from 9:00am to 11:30am at a kindergarten and a day-care center for three months starting late April every year. Their fi eldwork was conducted periodically and continuously three times at the same kindergarten and also three times at the same day-care center during one semester. In the school year 2011, the third year of this research, a new approach was attempted. At the beginning of the semester professors introduced various methods of observation to the students which was then followed by fi eldwork, in which the students observed young children’s lives and behavior in kindergarten and day-care centers. This method was eff ective in that students improved their observation skills, and the recording of the environment and behavior of young children, kindergarten teachers, and childcare workers. In conclusion, the eff ectiveness of teaching a class that requires participatory fi eldwork at kindergartens and day-care centers during fi rst year education not only aff ords students a better understanding young children, kindergarten teachers, child care workers and the environmental component, but it also enriched teacher-training education in association with related classes. |
