The purpose of this study was to synthesize the effect of the early childhood education programs on the children aged from 3 to 5. The results were meta-analyzed by using CMA(Comprehensive Meta Analysis ver.2.0) program. The research questions were as follows. Firstly, How much is the mean effect size of early childhood education program? Secondly, how different is the mean effect size of early childhood education according to five sub-domains of Nuri program and six dependent variables of creativity? Thirdly, how different is the mean effect size of each early childhood education program in terms of research characteristics , demographic characteristics, and moderators such as a treatment variable?
The study examined the difference between the effect sizes of 16 early childhood education programs and the effect sizes of the moderators including National Curriculum and Nuri Program. The subjects of analysis were 119 dissertations, 260 theses and 38 research papers which were written between year 1960 and 2016. Out of the subjects, 517 effect sizes (sample-level) and 3,711 effect sizes (value-level) were extracted and the random model was selected rather than fixed model as an analytic model. The early childhood education programs were Montessori, Frobel, Reggio Emillia, Project Approach, Waldorf, Portage, Bank Street, High/Scope, Project Spectrum, Ecological Education, Integrative Fullday Program, Multi-Cultural Program, Disabilities, Mixed-Age, Anti-Bias, and Gifted Child. Among the programs Portage, Bank Street, High/Scope, and Gifted Child Programs were excluded because they are hardly practiced in Korea.
The study analyzed and suggested the moderating effect of the Nuri Program's five sub-domains and Creativity scope (Social Relationship, Physical Excercise/Health, Communication, Art Experience, Nature Search). The moderators were subjects' characters (publication year & source), democratic variables (gender, group, age, & region), and practice variables (terms & class schedules). As a result, the overall size effect was .862.
The effect size of policy based was .937. The effect sizes of the policy based in the sub-domains(physical exercise and nature search) were .954 and 1.132 respectively. However the effect sizes of the emergent curriculums in the sub-domains(artic experience, communication, and creativity) were 1.737, 1.228 and .862 respectively. The effect sizes of 14 education programs were as in the following. The effect size of inclusion education program was the most highest and integrative full-day program had a negative effect size. The order of the effect sizes in the sub-domain were artic experience, nature search, physical exercise, health, social relationship, and creativity.
The effect sizes of education programs based on the moderating variables were as in the following. The highest score was .919 (2012-2016) and in case of group category the effect sizes were .992 (the small group), .811(big group), and .611(individual group). According to age, the effect sizes were 1.190(age 3), .963(age 5), and .746(age 4). The effect sizes of area category were 1.017(farming and fishing area), .941(city), and .773(megacity). The best treatment period were 30 and over weeks, 5-6 in per week, total number was 60 and over, and 41-60 per time.
Based on the previous research, this study identifies early childhood education programs related to the variables through meta-analysis, realizes the evidence-based actuality through a comprehensive analysis of the mean effect sizes, and finally suggests the direction of future configuration of early childhood education programs.
