服务学习融入大学《幼儿科学教育》教学的行动研究

Action Research of the Application of Service-Learning in Teaching of Science Education of Preschool Children

摘要: 为提高学前教育专业大学生对幼儿科学教育领域的学习兴趣，本研究将服务学习融入《幼儿科学教育》课程，开展行动研究。初步行动方案采用科学童话剧表演的服务学习，在学期中引导大二学生开展此项服务学习。科学童话剧表演的服务学习提供给了大学生真实的实践操作机会，有效引发了大学生对幼儿科学教育的兴趣，但仅是引领学生入门，效果比较粗浅。修正的行动方案，在科学童话剧表演基础上，增加了趣味科学探究、数学认知等多种类的科学游戏，形成了科学主题游戏的服务学习方案。通过行动研究发现，在《幼儿科学教育》课程框架下，服务学习融入《幼儿科学教育》是一项可行的教学策略，有助于课程目标的达成，有效提高大学生幼儿科学教育的能力。

Abstract: To enhance the interest of college students majoring in preschool education in exploring preschool science education, this research will integrate service learning into the courses of Preschool Science Education and carry out the action research. The preliminary scheme uses science pantomime to guide the sophomores to the implementation of service learning in the term. The service learning of science pantomime performance gives college students a real opportunity for practice and effectively stimulates their interest in preschool science education. However, it is not quite effective for them to enter into this sector preliminarily. Based on the science pantomime performance, the revised scheme adds varied scientific games like interest scientific inquiry and mathematics cognition, and has formed service learning scheme themed with scientific games. Through our research, we find that within the frame of Preschool Science Education courses, integrating the service learning with Preschool Science Education is a practicable strategy for education, which can help achieve the course goal and effectively increase the preschool education ability of college students.
