教育政策越来越强调幼儿科学参与。作为儿童早期学习的关键影响者，父母（n = 85）参加了科学研讨会在爱尔兰的三所城市学校就他们对科学的态度进行了调查。70%的家长认为，科学教育应在学前阶段，即4岁之前开始。尽管受教育程度很高，但至少有一半的父母表示在谈论和与年幼的孩子一起做科学方面缺乏信心。那些报告说对与孩子一起进行科学活动信心不足的父母也报告说，在列出的七个科学学习机会中，有五个活动的频率减少了。与父亲相比，母亲对与孩子一起进行科学活动的信心较低。研究结果表明，父母对科学的信心可能会影响早期的科学经验，并强调父母是增加早期科学参与的关键支持。
Educational policies increasingly emphasise early childhood science engagement. As key influencers in children’s early learning, parents (n = 85) attending a science workshop in three urban schools in Ireland were surveyed regarding their attitudes towards science. Seventy per cent of parents believed that science education should begin in the pre-school years, before the age of four. Despite high levels of education, at least half of the parents expressed some lack of confidence in talking about, and in doing science with, their young children. Parents who reported less confidence in doing science activities with their children also reported reduced frequency of activities for five out of the seven science learning opportunities listed. Mothers, compared to fathers, reported less confidence in doing science activities with their children. Findings indicate that parents’ confidence in science may impact early science experiences and highlight parents as a key support for increasing early science engagement.
