Cultivate children's creativity under the concept of project steam Education

steam Under the educational concept, the dramatic activity is to integrate mathematics 、 science 、 The knowledge of engineering disciplines is integrated into the activities in the art field , Completing this activity is very challenging for children , Driven by the task of theatrical performance , They need to communicate through cooperation , Practice on the basis of planning and design , Constantly face challenges and find ways to solve problems .“Steam Innovative education has carried out rich educational practice all over the world , It is of great significance to the cultivation of innovation ability of basic education in China .“ From the perspective of school education , On the one hand, innovation literacy needs to be protected , On the other hand, it can be taught 、 Learnable . In other words , Whether it is the cultivation and implementation of innovative character or innovative ability , All need to be realized through school education and teaching practice . According to relevant international research , In this respect Steam Education can play a huge role ［5］.” Supports this view . After a year of steam Drama activities under the educational concept , The creativity of children in the experimental class was significantly improved .

Children's interest in learning increases . data display , Under the influence of this study, children's positive learning interest increased significantly . We found that such classroom environment and course content stimulated students' enthusiasm for learning , It also makes knowledge become life 、 Interesting 、 visualization . adopt Steam Course study , The students did learn something .” This also supports the relevant conclusions of this study . stay Steam In the drama activities under the educational concept, teachers pay attention to children's curiosity and imagination in the situation , Let children feel happy 、 Experience fun 、 Open the door to creativity in improving ability . Or give children a choice , Give full play to their autonomy , Let them form groups according to their interests , Play a full role in the group , Children are interested in activities , Naturally willing to try . Such an atmosphere of independent and free activities is naturally loved by children , It is not surprising that the interest in learning has increased .

Children learn better . Play is the basic activity of children , At present, the kindergarten teaching practice pays more attention to the game , However, the phenomenon that the learning style tends to the primary school classroom mode still exists . and Steam Drama activities under the educational concept are based on project activities ,“ Traditional lecturing and standardized evaluation cannot meet the needs of teachers and children in Steam Experience in the event .” This requires the combination of traditional theatrical activities Steam Adjust the educational concept , From the stage setting to the final presentation of the complete performance, the whole process gives full play to children's initiative , Reflect children's participation , Give children the opportunity to express themselves , Teachers give children a chance to make mistakes . More Than This , Each child must find a suitable role in the group , Attend to each one's own duties , Give full play to your subjective initiative .

Through relevant research , Children's creativity is Steam The drama project activities under the educational concept have been significantly improved in the process of carrying out , At the same time, it will change the traditional teaching atmosphere to a certain extent , Inject fresh ideas and methods into the activities , Promote the development of preschool education theory . what's more , Children can be promoted in such free and independent activities .
Project based learning aims at one or more subject areas . Just started the course design , Many teachers will learn from “ Small ” Start , Select only a few thematic areas as targets . But as teachers and students gradually understand project-based learning ,STEAM Can be for Science 、 mathematics 、 technology 、 Project based learning in the art field provides effective solutions , And subject integration in the form of special topics . Teachers should use a reverse design framework when designing projects , In order to have a clear idea of the project . The problems involved in this process are ： Needs assessment STEAM What aspects of teaching ？ What kind of works will students create , To show the right STEAM Mastery of various standards ？

STEAM Pay attention to the integration of all aspects of content , therefore STEAM The combination with project-based learning involves not only STEAM Topic content , It also covers STEAM Areas outside the core theme , Such as language and social studies . With STEAM and PBL The continuous progress of , Teachers have been able to combine the two in curriculum and teaching practice . and , These two methods can also complement each other . Teachers should be aware of the shortcomings of various methods in the process of design , Conduct course integration , And share their works with practitioners with similar interests .

in summary , Project based learning steam Why is it so important ？ Cultivate students' ability to survive in a high-tech knowledge-based society . The traditional teaching mode of passive learning textbook knowledge and rote learning has been unable to make students based on today's society . Solving highly complex problems requires students to master basic skills at the same time （ read 、 Collaboration and Mathematics ） as well as 21 Century skills （ The team cooperation 、 solve the problem 、 Research data collection 、 time management 、 Information integration and high-tech application ability ）. Have these comprehensive skills , Students can become supervisors and managers in their own learning process , And be familiar with project-based learning steram Our teachers are just their mentors and mentors .
