Opportunities and Challenges of Primary School Science Education

Overview

The new core of primary science education is ‘Explore with Curiosity, Learn through Applying, Innovate for Tomorrow’. It aims to spark students' curiosity and imagination, encouraging a journey from hands-on to minds-on activities, and to pursue dreams while inspiring their creativity and scientific potential from a young age. This change makes science teaching exciting and lively, and it's the best time to promote teaching innovation.
Meanwhile, how should the core ideas of the curriculum be practiced? Why does students' curiosity need to be ‘sparked’? How can it be sparked? How can activities be designed and questions be asked to effectively promote learning? How can we cultivate students' interest and spirit in science and engineering from an early age, setting goals to become the hope of the new era?
