Teachers' view of the nature of science plays an important role in teachers' implementation of science education.In order to solve the problem of "the relationship between kindergarten teachers' views on the nature of science and their views on early childhood science education",this study conducted a semi-structured interview with 8kindergarten teachers in H kindergarten in Nanjing through random sampling method.The results show that: 1.There are three types of views on the nature of science among the interviewed teachers,the three types of scientific educational views all reflect their corresponding views on the nature of science.2.In the process of transferring from the view of nature of science to the view of education of science,teachers select the view of nature of science mainly according to the value orientation of "nature of science" and "science and life" when there is complexity in the view of nature of science itself.Therefore,the overall type tendency of the view of the nature of science in the view of science education will be different from that of the objective view of the nature of science.However,teachers' views on science education are still influenced by other views on the nature of science.3.There are similarities between the interviewed teachers' views on the nature of science and their views on science education,that is,the understanding of "the nature of science" and "science and life" in their views on the nature of science career is the core influencing their views on science education.Affected by the logical positivism tendency in their view of the nature of science,kindergarten teachers lack the understanding of the nature of science and culture in their views of "the nature of science" and "science and life".Therefore,kindergarten teachers have insufficient understanding of "kindergarten science education" and "the relationship between science and other fields".4.Kindergarten teachers have a logical positivist view of the nature of science,and lack of understanding of the nature of science and culture is due to the influence of traditional science education,the neglect of the "view of the nature of science" by kindergarten science education and the working pressure of kindergarten;The differences between teachers' views on the nature of science are mainly influenced by the individual education level and interest preference of kindergarten teachers.Finally,combining with the analysis of influencing factors,the researchers put forward relevant suggestions for improving the view of the nature of science of kindergarten teachers and improving the quality of science education practice in kindergarten.
