This study investigated computer anxiety among daycare teachers, and their perceptions of the Internet content rubric as well as the use of Internet contents in class. It analyzed the differences found for variables associated with these research questions by using various tests, and examined the relationships among these questions. The subjects for this study were 189 teachers at daycare centers located in Jeollabuk-do and Chungcheongnam-do.
Data analysis was done by calculating the means and standard deviations for each research question, and conducting one-way analysis of variance, Duncan\'s post test, and Pearson\'s correlation analysis. The results of this study can be summed up as follows. First, the younger, better-educated, and more experienced the teachers, and the older the children in their charge, the lower the teachers\' computer anxiety. Also, the higher the computer ownership rates in workplace, the lower the anxiety level. Second, the older the teachers, and the higher the computer ownership rates in workplace, the higher their perceptions of the Internet content rubric.
Third, the younger and better-educated the teachers, the higher their perceptions of the use of Internet contents in class. Those in charge of children aged 3 and 5 also exhibited higher perception levels regarding the use of Internet contents in class. Fourth, teachers with low computer anxiety and high perceptions of the Internet content rubric were more likely to display high perceptions of the need for use of Internet contents in class. The outcome of this study will hopefully be used as basic data in establishing the directions for computer education for young children so that Internet contents can be appropriately accommodated in the preschool curriculum.
