Curriculum Design of Early Childhood Education in a Multicultural Background
Abstract
The purpose of early childhood education curriculum design in a multicultural background is to provide children with a tolerant and open learning atmosphere and promote their full development in cognition and emotion. Curriculum design should fully consider cultural sensitivity and inclusiveness, attach importance to the individualization and differentiation of teaching, and highlight cross-cultural communication and interaction. Through cultural integration as the theme unit, multi-sensory experience as the learning method, digital multilingual resource integration as the means, and family and community cooperation as the education model, children can get a full range of educational experience in a multicultural background. In addition, curriculum design should focus on the global perspective, and improve children’s cultural identity and global perspective on the premise of paying attention to the presentation of local cultural characteristics.
