Research On The Design Popularization Education Approach And Strategy For Preschool Children Based On Cognitive Psychology

In the context of the national strategy of independent innovation and interdisciplinary cross-development and symbiosis,the design discipline has encountered unprecedented development opportunities,and design education,as an important direction in design applied theory research and its multidisciplinary integration and symbiotic development attributes,has attracted the attention of more and more design researchers.Design is significant for the development of creative thinking,aesthetic awareness guidance and other comprehensive literacy cultivation,and this quality cultivation with universal attributes should be popularized from the children’s stage,but focusing on the current situation of design education for preschool children in China,a considerable number of children’s education in the name of design still focuses on the basic technical training of art patterns or techniques and traditional arts and crafts influencing underhand craft production,ignoring the heuristic education and design discipline that fully respects children’s cognitive level and characteristics.It is urgent to analyze the principles and educational values of design popularization education for preschool children from the perspective of design literacy education with cognitive psychology as the theoretical basis,and to investigate the ways and strategies of design popularization education for preschool children under cognitive psychology by taking children’s individual cognitive characteristics as the research basis.Firstly,this project compares the current situation of design popularization education for children at home and abroad from both theoretical research and practical development,and summarizes the practice of design popularization education for children in China from multiple perspectives;secondly,through literature research,summarizes the theory and development characteristics of preschool children’s cognitive psychology,and summarizes the guiding value and significance of cognitive psychology for the research on the ways and strategies of children’s design education;thirdly,through a large number of practical activities and relying forms of children’s education from the perspective of design disciplines,and through interviews and questionnaire research with preschool children and parents,we explore the general status of children’s design education in China.Then,based on the information processing theory and cognitive development theory of cognitive psychology,and combined with the value and characteristics of design literacy education,we summarize and analyze the triple principles and four educational values of children’s design popular education;finally,we propose the ways and strategies of children’s design popular education under cognitive psychology.Through the previous stage of the analysis of the form and connotation of children’s education from the perspective of design,and Through the previous analysis of the forms and connotations of children’s education from the perspective of design,and combining the cognitive level and characteristics of children at this stage,we summarize and conclude that design resources and multi-dimensional platforms collaborate to expand children’s perceptual paths as a way to carry out popular design education for children.Based on the value of the intersection of design disciplines and the value of building literacy for the future development of the educated,we summarize and refine the strategies to stimulate children’s senses and interests and cultivate children’s design observation ability;to perceive design form and function and cultivate children’s aesthetic awareness;to encourage exploration and expression and cultivate children’s design creativity;to guide thinking and transformation and cultivate children’s design thinking.The strategy of children’s design popularization education is to provide some reference and reference for the subsequent theoretical research and practical application.
