A Study on the Accessibility of Intergrating Public Cultural Services into Early Childhood:Based on the Sample of Guangzhou
Public cultural services have become an important part of cultural construction and a strategic project in our country.Accessibility is the concept which evaluates the"suitability"of the public cultural service system for its target users.Based on survey data from 737 kindergarten teachers and administrators in Guangzhou,this study constructs an accessibility evaluation framework that includes the dimensions of availability,accessibility,acceptability,and adaptability,analyzing and evaluating the suitability of the public cultural service system with the demand and cultural service utilization behavior of kindergarten teachers and students.The study found that both public cultural service institutions and the supply and demand sides of kindergartens recognize the educational value of public cultural services,but the functions of public cultural services have not been fully utilized,and the overall accessibility of integrating public cultural services into early childhood education needs to be improved.The current availability and accessibility are the basic conditions that affect the integration of public cultural services into early childhood education.Weak ability to access public cultural service resources and lack of knowledge on how to apply them in practice are important reasons that hinder kindergartens from using public cultural services.Expanding the capacity and improving the quality and efficiency of public cultural service institutions,and providing precise supply,can promote kindergartens to constantly pay attention to and use public cultural services.This is a viable path to improve the suitability between public cultural services and the demand of kindergarten teachers and students.
