| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to develop, implement, and evaluate a project work based on nature experiences (PBN) program. In this study, the PBN was developed based on the characteristics of the project work, which were revealed by analyzing related papers, books, and findings from the fieldwork at several centers for early childhood education and care in Germany. Further, it resulted from discussions on educational and environmental conditions with a center for early childhood education and care that could provide practical cooperation. The results of verifying the effectiveness of the developed PBN showed that the PBN affects children’s scientific perceptions.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日本では、幼児期の子どもと自然との関わりは、子どもの好奇心や思考力等の基礎を培う上で重要とされており、子どもがどのように自然と関わったらよいのか、保育者がどのようにそれを支援したらよいのか、といった自然体験のあり方についての議論が一層求められている。そこで本研究では、自然体験型プロジェクト活動を分析し、その特徴を見出すとともに、それらの特徴を導入した実践を行い、子どもの科学的認識に一定の影響を及ぼし得ることを解明した。以上の知見は、幼児期における自然体験のあり方に一つの示唆を与え得るものであり、この点に意義があると考える。
