本研究探讨了身体和智力的影响学龄前儿童的自然科学浓缩计划。当前的研究着眼于活跃户外喜好和学业成绩之间的关系。我们希望孩子们参与自然浓缩计划将展示更多的读写能力和发展。参与程序应该会增加户外活动的偏好。过去的研究已经表明,牺牲课堂时间体育活动与积极的学业表现(罗伯特,2007年第19)。因此,夹杂物的户外教育可能会展示积极的效果。参与者招募从当地幼儿园的基础上从凯洛格基金会赠款资金和户外探索中心在荷兰,密歇根。男性和女性参与者年龄3 - 5岁。活动偏好进行评估使用一个适应Leary幼儿园活动偏好的度量(2009)。这个特定的测量包括孩子的偏好对久坐不动的室内或户外活动活跃。 Academic performance will be assessed using the Preschool Early Literacy Indicators (PELI) assessment. The PELI examines early literacy skills in a storybook format (Kaminski, Abbott, Bravo-Aguayo, Latimer, & Good, 2013). The Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) was used to examine developmental stages. The ASQ examines developmental and social-emotional characteristics of young children (Brookes Publishing, 2014). Higher PELI and ASQ scores correspond with greater skills development. Expected outcomes are that greater literacy skills will positively correlate with development, through comparison of PELI and ASQ scores. Outdoor activity preference will correlate positively with higher PELI scores. Additionally, outdoor activity preference will positively correlate with higher ASQ scores. Outcomes of this study will show the effectiveness of a nature-based science enrichment program for use in future preschool educational planning.
