Research On The Design Of Children’s Outdoor Classroom Site Based On The Concept Of Nature Education

In recent years,with the rapid development of early childhood education in China,kindergarten as an important place for preschool education for young children,it has a role incomparable to other places.At the same time,with the expansion of the domestic construction industry,the area of kindergarten outdoor classroom space has been reduced,and the quality of its environment has been declining to varying degrees.On this basis,this thesis the creation of kindergarten outdoor classroom space,putting the needs of children in the first place and considering the naturalness and practicality of kindergarten outdoor classroom space,so as to enhance the characteristics of the subject embodied in the outdoor classroom space for children.First,this thesis examines the current situation of nature education and kindergarten outdoor classroom space at home and abroad,and identifies the shortcomings in the current situation.In terms of theory,the literature on outdoor classroom spaces in kindergartens is relatively small and lacks integration with theories of related disciplines;in terms of practice,the quantity and quality of construction and creation of outdoor classroom spaces in kindergartens in China cannot meet the needs of children.Secondly,this thesis researches and summarizes the basic theories involved in the research topic,including the personality characteristics of children and the characteristics of children’s outdoor classroom sites.The characteristics of children’s personality include:children’s physiological development,psychological development and behavioral development;the characteristics of children’s outdoor classroom sites include: site type,site design characteristics,and the meaning of the site to children;in addition,three classic cases at home and abroad have been built to analyze and summarize,providing ideas for subsequent design practice.Again,on the basis of data collation,on-site research and comparative analysis,three research sites were identified: the kindergarten affiliated to the University of Mining,the high-end kindergarten of Jade City,and the kindergarten of the kindergarten teacher of Royal View Bay;the design elements,functional zoning,and landscape nodes of the current sites were analyzed by using questionnaires,observation records,and summarization;from the three research sites,designers usually rely too much on their own experience in creating the environment of the sites.From the three research sites,designers usually rely too much on their own experience,pay too much attention to the architectural form and indoor space environment,and take too one-sided a school and adult perspective,but lack scientific research on the physiological,psychological and behavioral characteristics of the people who use the site.We also concluded that the current construction status and common problems exist in the site: the site lacks naturalness and ecology,the function does not meet the needs of the main children,and the relationship between the part and the whole is not coordinated.Finally,design objectives and design concepts are formulated based on the problems summarized in the research site,and design strategies are proposed based on them.In the design practice,taking the kindergarten of the Royal View Bay kindergarten as an example,the basic situation of the site is outlined and sorted out,and the next general layout,functional zoning and composition elements of the site are reanalyzed and redesigned for the next step.The design content includes the creation of atmosphere and the construction of elements: for example,the creation of atmosphere through the re-planning of the existing site of eight functional areas,set the roof planting area,gardening picking area,etc.to enhance the functional attributes of the kindergarten outdoor classroom site;the construction of elements through the campus logo,environmental facilities transformation and other aspects to enhance the interaction with children.The conclusions are drawn from the basic theory and design practice;the basic theory includes: functional characteristics of the site,site types,etc.;the design practice includes: site design concept,site design principles,etc.It is hoped that the research content of this thesis can provide reference and reference for future kindergarten outdoor classroom site design,in order to create a healthy and safe,child-oriented,ability-enhancing,natural and ecological,easy-to-manage kindergarten outdoor classroom site for children in the future,It is hoped that this thesis can provide reference for the future design of kindergarten outdoor classroom.
