The aim of this paper is to elucidate the design process of \u201cHoiku Yoryo\u201d (National Curriculum Standards for Early Childhood Education). It was established as Japan\u2019s first \u201cCourse of study for early childhood education\u201d. Previous research on this subject was based primarily on the recollections of participants, and not on document-ed data. Therefore this study reveals the historical significance of \u201cHoiku Yoryo\u201d, using by GHQ\/SCAP (CI&E) Conference Reports.
\nAs a result of this study the whole design process of \u201cHoiku Yoryo\u201d has become clear. It was not only designed to set \u201cnational curriculum standards\u201d, it was also an \u201cacademic educational book\u201d, expected to function as a set of guidelines.<\/span><\/p>\n

McMillan\u2019s nursery school was designed to provide children from poorer families with health care and developmental support as well as an education in the early 20th century. This system included helping educate the parents. As a result, their chilren\u2019s physical, intellectual, and spiritual development drastically improved. In addition, the parents came to take greater responsibility for the welfare of their children. The results of MacMillan\u2019s work provide us implications for contemporary nursery education and care here in Japan: nurture in the school, child care and family support, and the school as the place for social reform. Our schools need well-trained teachers with the right working conditions, parents\u2019 education, and financial backing to child-care facilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reflection is the central concept in Makoto Tsumori\u2019s childcare thought. Recently many authors have referred to his concept of reflection, but they tend to consider it in a rather technical way. I explore aspects of Tsumori\u2019s reflection that involve internal processes, based on inquiry into not only the theoretical but also the practical side of his thought included in his case study. The following aspects represent characteristics of his concept of reflection: seeing children\u2019s action as expression, active and holistic commitment of nursery school teachers, the process of incubation, and the relationship between teachers and children. About the subjective interpretation in the reflection, I showed the need to build the methodology and the phronesis of case interpretation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This study aims to clarify the subjective experiences of preschool teachers involved in daily education and care of young children. I interviewed 8 relatively inexperienced preschool teachers. Qualitative data was analyzed using the \u2018Modified Grounded Theory Approach\u2019.
\nResults showed that preschool teachers experienced cyclically two contrasting emotions, \u201cenjoying time with children\u201d and \u201cstruggling to cope with lonelinessin class\u201d. This study shows that \u201cthe heart in education and care\u201d of preschool teachers, love for children and zeal in childcare, have good\/bad effects on their subjective experiences. These findings suggest that psychological support for preschool teacher is also a necessary part of a healthy school.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of years of experience,work conditions,coping skills,Sense of Coherence, and depression at work among nursery teachers. Two hundred and ninety-two nursery teachers completed self-assessment questionnaires such as \u201cCES-D Scale\u201d, \u201cKiss-18\u201d, \u201cTAC-24\u201d, \u201cSOC 3-UTHS\u201d in 2012. The results showed that work conditions such as having a full time job or part time job, and being a classroom teacher or not, were not associated with depression. Years of experience and Sense of Coherence were associated with depression through coping skills such as \u201cproblem solving skill\u201d and \u201cpositive interpretation and distraction\u201d depression.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yoko Kiso<\/span>. <\/span>The Relationship between Day Nursery Teachers\u2019 Psychological Burdens and Bringing up Children with Characteristics of Developmental Disorders or Supporting Their Parents:A Cross-Sectional Survey Using The Burnout Scale.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Research on Early Childhood Care and Education in Japan<\/i>, 2016, 54(1)<\/b>, 67-78.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This study examines factors associated with day nursery teachers\u2019 psychological burdens in bringing up children with characteristics of developmental disorders. A survey was conducted in 84 nurseries and the data from 342 teachers were used in the analyses. Three scales were created to measure degrees of 1) behavioral characters of those children, 2) difficulties in informing the parents about their children\u2019s problems, and 3) cooperation in\/out of schools. Multiple-liner regression analysis was given. The results showed the \u201cemotional exhaustion\u201d and \u201cdepersonalization\u201d scores were significantly correlated with the variable of difficulties in informing the parents about their children\u2019s problems, not with the variable of behavioral characters. The findings suggest that informing parents about their children\u2019s problems is far more stressful for the teachers than caring for the children themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n
