초록

The purpose of this study was to examine integrated art activities and early childhood science educations. Based on this study, we are able to suggest a new direction for children’s science education. For this purpose, we selected 78 integrated art activities and child science education dissertations by master and doctoral graduates as well as journal articles. After selecting 78 dissertations and journals, we did an analysis by years, contents and methods. Since 2000, integrated art–activities and child science education was increasing yearly based on research: 45 percent of the research was on literature-integrated early childhood science education programs, 21 percent on art-integrated studies and 11 percent on music-integrated studies. Moreover, for their methods, 79.5 percent were experimental studies, and 10.3 percent survey studies. However, most studies were quantitative research. For the subjects of the studies, 72.9 percent were 5 years old, 7.1 percent 4 years old, and 4.3 percent 3 years old while 5.7 percent were adults. The content of the studies was classified as 85.9 percent on development and application and 65 percent on enhancing a Child’s science ability.
