Abstract

Early childhood teacheThe purpose of this study is to examine early childhood teachers' perceptions of climate change education and their practices and efforts in early childhood education institutions. To this end, in-depth interviews were held individually or collectively with six early childhood teachers.
 The interview was recorded and transcribed, and analyzed through a qualitative research analysis process. The results of the study are as follows. First, early childhood teachers felt that the climate crisis was approaching our lives through various channels and recognized that climate change education was a necessary education for the next generation, but thought that climate change education was somewhat ambiguous and vague. Second, early childhood teachers were providing climate change education so that basic habits could be formed in their daily lives at early childhood education institutions, communicating with nature in nature, and practicing climate change education in connection with families and communities. Third, it was raised that early childhood teachers are having difficulties due to differences in perception between parents and institutional heads and need various social, physical, and administrative support and efforts to support them. These results can be useful as basic data for implementing climate change education and improving the expertise of early childhood teachers in early childhood education sites.rs' perceptions of climate change education and practice and effort in early childhood education institution
