Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although science education has expanded its research based on child-centered learning perspectives, it has been deviating significantly from the progress of natural science which creates innovation and rapid changes in scientific research. The purpose of this research was primarily intended to: (1) rethink science learning as second language learning, (2) foster individuals who can intentionally use scientific languages in meaningful ways with regard to natural events, phenomena, and daily life beginning in childhood. As a result, several useful science teaching approaches from the second language learning researches were proposed, and new practical early childhood science learning models which combine scientific learning, language learning, and arts learning were developed and implemented; the study’s pilot examples were published.
