| Abstract |
| Giving priority to expansion, Korean churches have failed to make professional efforts and investment in educational methods or environment, though they are aware of its importance. As a result, Christian education could not help but be stagnant under lack of appropriate facilities and unsuitable educational environment. Recent stagnant growth of churches make more and more churches look at problems with christian schools and their underdeveloped facilities and thus start to see the schools not so much places for worship as educational institutions. This paper intends to identify and analyze the educational environment of kindergartens run by christian churches among other institutions and present problems and possible remedies, ultimately contributing to future organization of effective church education system. As a tool for case collection and survey about the education spaces for church kindergartens, Murtha & Lee`s Dimensions of User Benefit was used. The results are as follows. First, the spaces required for a kindergarten include those for worship, education and service, all of which are indispensable from the planning stage. Second, necessary support must be given to securing minimum space per kid. Third, finishing materials must be environmentally friendly ones for safety, robustness and maintenance easiness for the active and growing-fast kids. Dedicated rooms including those for faculty, parents and feeding as well as spaces for kids` playing must be secured. |
