艺术教育与科学教育融合的可能性探索——以幼儿园手工制作活动为例

Possibility of Integrating Art Education and Science Education in Kindergarten Handcraft Activities

以设计为基础的手工制作具有交叉架构在艺术和科学两个领域之上的特点,教师选择合适的教学素材和指导策略,给幼儿一定的探索空间,能有效促进幼儿的全面发展。

Traditionally, handcraft activities belong to art education in kindergarten. Teachers often focus on these activities' art value but ignore their science value. According to the author, if children could be asked to design at first based on their own observation, they would have to inquire and research into objects' characteristics and functions before starting handcraft activities. In this way, integration of art education and science education might be possible.
