Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between childcare teachers' human rights sensitivity and rights-respecting childcare practices. To this end, data were collected and analyzed for 322 teachers who participated in education for childcare teachers in Chungbuk in 2023. First, the level of human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers was not high, and the perception of results was the highest by sub-factors. In terms of human rights-related items by episode, the right to freedom and safety of the body was the highest, and the right to education of the disabled was the lowest. Second, the overall level of childcare teachers' respect for infant rights was relatively high. By sub-area, toilet visits (basic needs) were the highest in daily work and respect, and special activities were the lowest. Among the best interests of children, respect for intention was the highest and information provision was the lowest. Third, the higher the human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers, the higher the level of child care that respects rights. By sub-area, going to the bathroom (basic desire) showed the highest correlation. Through these research results, it is necessary to prepare and practice measures to improve the human rights sensitivity of childcare teachers in order to have a high level of respect for rights and continuously implement them in the childcare field. This study is meaningful in providing implications for preparing various support measures to improve human rights sensitivity in order to implement childcare with respect for rights.
