A Case Study On The Establishment And Development Of Scientific Discovery Room In Kindergarten

With the rapid development of society,Science and technology has increasingly become an important factor in determining the future destiny of a country and a nation.In our country,the promotion of national scientific literacy is more and more valued by all circles of society.It is one of the important tasks of our country’s education to cultivate people who love science and have higher scientific literacy.In kindergarten,"3-6-year-old children’s learning and development guide" states: "the core of children’s scientific learning is to stimulate children’s interest in exploration,experience the process of exploration,and develop the initial exploration ability." It shows that science education in kindergarten attaches great importance to children’s exploration interest and exploration experience.At present,the main ways to implement science education in Kindergarten are Science concentrated teaching activities and science regional activities.In recent years,more and more people have paid attention to the scientific discovery room because of its unique advantages in stimulating children’s interest in exploration,experiencing the process of exploration,and developing the initial ability of exploration.Some scholars pointed out that the scientific discovery room is another effective way to implement science education in kindergarten.However,for many kindergarten front-line workers,how to create a scientific discovery room,how to effectively carry out activities,there are still a lot of confusion.Therefore,this research attempts to take the s kindergarten Science Discovery Room in F province as an example to discuss and analyze the problems in the establishment and activities of the Kindergarten Science Discovery Room,with a view to the kindergarten’s scientific discovery room construction and function play to provide a reference to the views and recommendations.This research uses the case study method in the qualitative research,and uses the interview method,the observation method,the object analysis method synthetically,this paper makes an in-depth investigation and analysis on the environment setting(space layout,activity area layout,material delivery)and activity development(goal formulation,content selection,activity arrangement,activity implementation)of S Kindergarten Science Discovery Room On this basis,sum up the s kindergarten scientific discovery room environment and activities of the successful experience and lack of development.The experience mainly includes: rich material environment to provide support for children’s activities;adhering to the correct educational concept,scientific consideration of space layout and activity area layout;Constantly adjust and improve activities in practice.The existing problems mainly include: some activity area material use cycle is too long;some activity area material operation way appears monotonous and machinery;activity target system needs to be improved;activity organization management needs to be optimized;The teachers’ support and guidance are not enough,and the evaluation of the activity needs to be strengthened.In this regard,this study analyzes the causes from two aspects: teachers’ factors and kindergartens factors,and based on the analysis of problems and causes,from the two levels of full-time teachers and kindergartens,this paper puts forward some countermeasures and suggestions for perfecting the construction and activities of the scientific discovery room.Finally,the researcher has carried on the summary and the reflection to this research.
