Research on Kindergarten Environment Creation based on Children's Perspectives

In the context of kindergarten environmental creation, adhering to a child-centered approach means viewing children as "meaningful creators of the environment" and designing learning spaces in a positive, empowering manner. This approach not only encourages an open and dialogic environment that stimulates children's autonomous exploration, but also allows the environment and curriculum to mutually enhance each other, optimizing the learning experience. In this process, teachers transition from being "creators of the environment" to "space creators," providing children with opportunities to explore and create. This approach enables children to freely express their ideas, participate in decision-making, and cultivate their creativity, autonomy, and sense of responsibility, ultimately promoting their holistic development.
