초록

The current study examined preschool teachers’ perceptions of implementation and competence of DEC’s child-focused recommended practices(DECRP) in their classrooms. The information was gathered through surveys of 147 teachers from pre-kindergarten programs. Overall, most respondents felt competent implementing the child-focused practices and they believed that they frequently implemented the DECRP child-focused practices in their classrooms. A discussion of the limitations of the present study and directions for future research are suggested. Implications for practice, teacher preparation programs, and practitioners also are discussed.

Abstract

The current study examined preschool teachers’ perceptions of implementation and competence of DEC’s child-focused recommended practices(DECRP) in their classrooms. The information was gathered through surveys of 147 teachers from pre-kindergarten programs. Overall, most respondents felt competent implementing the child-focused practices and they believed that they frequently implemented the DECRP child-focused practices in their classrooms. A discussion of the limitations of the present study and directions for future research are suggested. Implications for practice, teacher preparation programs, and practitioners also are discussed.
