Fun "can better stimulate scientific curiosity, while" understanding "can better satisfy scientific curiosity." I want to give you a 'chip'! ”My son's classmate confidently said. I thought it was just a casual remark from a 7-year-old child, but I didn't expect the child to actually take out a small circuit board from their pocket. After returning home, I carefully observed this' chip ', which was an ordinary power switch circuit board that seemed to have been removed from a toy. Chips are everywhere, they change our lives, and modern society has long been inseparable from chips. Strictly speaking, circuit boards and chips have an inclusive relationship rather than an equivalent relationship. But the real crux of the problem is that a child has already recognized chips and understood their importance. This couldn't help but amaze me. Search for relevant news, many places have started to focus on chip education during the compulsory education stage. For example, in Jiangjin District, Chongqing, the "Youth Science Academy" Eagle Plan Training Camp was recently launched. Professional teachers in the primary school group guided children to disassemble electronic devices, observe the "electronic maze" on chips with a microscope, and build intelligent circuit models. For example, Gaobu Middle School in Yuecheng District, Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, directly brought teaching lithography machines into classrooms, launched the course "Xin Dong Shao Nian", and invited scholars and researchers from universities to come and teach. Professionals undoubtedly play a crucial role in solving the mysteries of chips, discussing quantum mechanics, artificial intelligence, and the future of medicine for children. The role of parents cannot be ignored either. Pulling out seedlings to promote growth is not a good thing, as it can damage children's learning motivation and mental health. However, conducting scientific education on the basis that children can understand is worth trying. During a visit to a science museum, I encountered a research team consisting of elementary school students. The leading teacher patiently explained how iron ore was smelted into pig iron and steel, and how ancient people used water power. Surprisingly, the parents of the students who followed behind also had a handbook of knowledge points. Classroom education is limited by duration and subject, and cannot encompass all the responsibilities of enlightenment. Many enlightenment contents and classroom education have already "pushed the window" and "knocked on the door". If family education can follow up in a timely manner and help children see the "scenery" through the window and understand the "way" through the door, such enlightenment will definitely have a better effect. Scientific enlightenment requires good tools. There are a wide variety of children's science experiment kits available on the market, but most of them are limited to the "fun" level, with relatively few popular explanations of scientific principles. Stereoscopic books, flip books, and cave books under the banner of science popularization and encyclopedias often remain at the level of describing phenomena and presenting reality. There are also children's books that cover "principle questions" such as how suspension bridges are subjected to force, how electricity is generated, and why rockets can break out of the Earth, but the proportion is much smaller. Just being fun is not enough for scientific enlightenment, it also requires being able to understand. 'Fun' can better stimulate scientific curiosity, while 'understanding' can better satisfy the thirst for scientific knowledge. Curiosity and a strong desire for knowledge are essential for teenagers to establish a solid foundation of scientific literacy from a young age. The revised and implemented Science and Technology Popularization Law at the end of last year not only clarified the scientific education responsibilities of primary and secondary schools, but also proposed that preschool education institutions should strengthen scientific enlightenment education based on the age characteristics and physical and mental development laws of preschool children. Taking advantage of the situation and fully stimulating children's curiosity, imagination, and thirst for knowledge, there will be more free roaming talents in the ocean of science in the future. Today, science is exuding more profound and fascinating charm in the new journey of Chinese path to modernization. Strive to plant the seeds of science in children's hearts, guide them to weave their dreams of becoming scientists, and look forward to the future pillars of the country. (New Society)
