从中美文化差异看中国幼儿数学教育

Maths Education for Children in China from the Angle of Sino-US Cultural Difference

本文通过对253名中国幼儿园教师的调查,揭示了中美两种不同文化背景下的幼儿教育方法及教育观念的差异,并从文化的角度进行分析。在此基础上,作者从文化差异的视角对中国传统的幼儿数学教育实践进行反思,认为当前的数学教育改革应该在保持自身文化特点的同时吸收西方教育理念的积极因素,并指出这将是一个漫长而复杂的文化发展过程。

On the basis of the analysis, the author introspects on the practice of children's maths education according to the cultural difference, and he thinks that the present educational reform on maths should absorb some active elements from western educational ideas while, at the same time, keeping the cultural characteristics of our own and this is a long and complicated process.
