To succeed in a complex environment, we must solve the problems encountered, from finding food to learning to work technology. Humans excel at this problem solving. Researching children's problem solving is key to understanding the psychological processes involved, as processes are examined as they emerge and develop. We also better understand children's capacities, which is essential for supporting their learning. This PhD unites these goals: work closely with Thinktank museum to address theoretical questions through experimental studies and to develop and evaluate museum STEM activities using observational methods.Key research questions:- How does children's ability to spot problems develop? Are children influenced by problem-solving with others? How do children communicate their solutions?- How can evidence be applied to support development of informal education activities?Methods and techniquesThree phases of research each address a neglected aspect of children's problem solving. Each phase has one theoretical study and one applied study: - Problem spotting- Collaboration- Communication

要在复杂的环境中取得成功，我们必须解决遇到的问题，从寻找食物到学习工作技术。人类擅长解决这个问题。研究儿童的问题解决是理解所涉及的心理过程的关键，因为过程是随着它们的出现和发展而被检查的。我们还更好地了解儿童的能力，这对支持他们的学习至关重要。这个博士学位结合了这些目标：与智库博物馆密切合作，通过实验研究解决理论问题，并使用观察方法开发和评估博物馆STEM活动。关键研究问题：-儿童发现问题的能力如何发展？孩子是否会受到与他人一起解决问题的影响？孩子们如何沟通他们的解决方案？如何运用证据支持非正规教育活动的发展？方法和技术三个阶段的研究，每个地址的一个被忽视的方面，儿童的问题解决。每个阶段都有一个理论研究和一个应用研究：-发现问题-协作-沟通
