论幼儿科学思维的启蒙

On the Enlightenment of Childhood Scientific Thought

本文提出科学思维在幼儿科学教育目标体系中的重要性,认为科学思维的启蒙应该成为幼儿科学教育的重要关照点。科学思维是一种建立在事实和逻辑基础上的理性的思维方式。鉴于幼儿认知发展的局限性,他们的科学思维发展仍处于萌芽状态。因此,在幼儿科学教育中,教师只有充分考虑幼儿的年龄特点,才能在幼儿的心灵中埋下科学思维的第一粒种子。

The thesis raised the importance of the scientific thought in the scientific targeted education system for children, and it argues that the childhood scientific thought should be the observational focus in the childhood scientific education. The scientific thought is rational, and based on the fact and logic. According to the limit of the childhood cognition development, the scientific thought is in the sprouting situation. Therefore, in the scientific targeted education, the first seed of childhood scientific thought would be planted only if the age is fully considered by teachers.
