中国幼儿数学教育课程的反思与构建

Reconsideration and Construction of Chinese Infant Maths Education

中国幼儿数学教育理论与国外幼儿数学教育理论有较大差距;在幼儿数学教育中有忽视幼儿数学教育实践的倾向;数学教育课程脱离幼儿生活实际,具有小学化倾向。幼儿数学教育课程的构建要以建构主义为导向,以幼儿数学认知和学习特点及个性化为基点;要重视幼儿数学学习的文化继承;幼儿数学教育课程建构还应重视数学教育的"问题解决"和数学思维训练。

There are considerable gaps between the theory of Chinese infant maths education and that in foreign countries. For instance, practice in infant maths education tends to be neglected and the arrangement of maths curricula takes into no account the reality of infant life, showing a tendency of following the arrangement for primary school pupils. As a matter of fact, however, infant maths curricula should be constructed under the guidance of constructivist conception and arranged depending on the characteristics and individuality of infant maths cognition. Importance should be attached to the present-day infant education succeeding the tradition in maths learning. Finally, 'problem-solving' and thinking training should also be emphasized in the construction of infant maths teaching curricula.
