The history of human development is a constantly risky process,the task of education is to cultivate the ability to adapt to the development of society,and dare to open up,not afraid of challenges,with courageous quality and innovative spirit of the people.But the reality is that young children are imprisoned in a cage,afraid to explore new things.Such a conservative and well educated way of education does not seem to be wrong,but ignores the most primitive human desire to explore the spirit of adventure.Studies have shown that young children like to engage in activities and challenges involving risk,speed,excitement,stimulation,uncertainty,and a strong interest in and desire for risk-taking in their activities.Preschool teachers are the guide of young children is also the best partner for children,the development of children's behavior and the formation of character has an important role.Therefore,the attitude of preschool teachers affects the emergence and development of child risk-taking behavior.At home,the research on the risk behavior of young children is relatively few and mainly biased against the prevention of the passive risk-taking behavior,and there is no research on the risk behavior of preschool children,compared with the research of security education,which reflects the focus and tendency of domestic research.The aim of this study is to select 136 first-line preschool teachers in the area of Wuhan from the beginning of the study.Using IUS-12 Chinese revision to measure and analyze the uncertainty tolerance of preschool teachers,the uncertainty tolerance,as a psychological concept,can influence preschool teachers' influence on future uncertain events and emotions.After a clearer understanding of the uncertainty tolerance of preschool teachers,the relationship between the uncertainty tolerance of preschool teachers and their attitude towards risk-taking behavior is found out,and the uncertainty tolerance level of preschool teachers is adjusted scientifically to improve their attitude towards risk-taking behavior.The comprehensive use of the literature method,questionnaire method and other research methods,and compiled the "Children's attitude to child risk behavior Survey questionnaire"to clarify the teachers ' attitude towards risk-taking behavior,and the relationship between the uncertainty tolerance and the risk behavior of the young children was drawn up,and the effective guidance strategies were put forward.The main factors affecting teachers' attitudes are:First,the influence of uncertainty on the attitude of teachers to their attitudes.Including the "expected mood" affecting teachers' attitudes towards young children's risk-taking behavior and the "empirical behavior" affecting teachers' attitudes to young children's risk-taking behavior.Second,the influence of other factors on teacher attitudes.Including children's personality characteristics,influence of parental attitudes,differences between Chinese and Western cultures,and educational differences.The main conclusions of this study are as follows:teachers can't properly recognize the value of young children's risk-taking behavior;teachers have low overall support for children's adventurous behavior in the park;teachers' attitudes toward children's risky behavior in the park are contrary to their behavior.According to the conclusions of the study,there are four ways to improve teachers' attitudes and specific instructional strategies for young children's risk-taking behaviors.First,to improve the tolerance of teachers' uncertainty and to improve teachers' attitudes to young children's risk-taking behaviors;second,to strengthen theoretical training for teachers and Practice guidance;Third,pay attention to the individual differences of young children and win support from parents;Fourth,develop the multi-cultural transformation of the inherent concept.
