A Study on the constituent elements and generating path of rural kindergarten teachers'sense of place
The sense of place is people's perception of a specific place,and the cultivation of the sense of place is an important guarantee for rural kindergarten teachers to"stay,teach well and develop".With the theme of"sense of place",this study conducts in-depth interviews with 25 rural kindergarten teachers,and analyzes the research data by using grounded theory.The results show that the rural kindergarten teachers'sense of place is composed of five elements:emotional attachment,cultural identity,resource use,interpersonal interaction and activity participation.Emotional attachment provides the connecting hub,cultural identity provides the belief support,resource use provides the material basis,interpersonal interaction provides the driving force,and activity participation provides the practical situation.At the same time,there are logical relations between these elements.Rural kindergarten teachers'sense of place originates from the teachers'complete local life,is closely related to the curriculum of the kindergarten,and can reflect the cultural pattern of the countryside.Its formation is a permeable,embodied and interactive process.Based on this,we should attach importance to the inheritance and innovation of local culture,stimulate teachers'emotional resonance and cultural self-confidence,build a local resource system through the curriculum,and create a harmonious and symbiotic local living environment.
