Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper reports significant findings from an exploratory investigation of factors influencing kindergarten teachers’ perceptions of holistic early childhood education (HECE) following the release of a recent policy document relating to Early Childhood Education by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. A comprehensive four-page survey questionnaire was completed by 165 teachers, in 22 Kindergartens across three Districts in Hong Kong. The questionnaire sought responses on demographics (including spiritual well-being); six aspects of ECE detailed in the HKSAR document; teachers’ expectations of HECE; and their perceptions of parental involvement in their young children’s development. This study revealed that kindergarten teachers’ spiritual well-being was a key demographic factor contributing to their expectations of holistic early childhood education.

幼儿园教师的精神幸福感影响幼儿整体教育

摘要本文报告了香港特别行政区最近发布幼儿教育政策文件后，对影响幼儿教师对整体幼儿教育（HECE）认知的因素进行的探索性调查的重要结果。香港三个地区22个幼儿园的165名教师完成了一份为期四页的综合调查问卷。调查问卷寻求有关人口统计（包括精神健康）的答复；香港特别行政区文件详述的欧洲经委会的六个方面；教师对HECE的期望；以及他们对父母参与幼儿发展的看法。这项研究表明，幼儿园教师的精神幸福感是影响他们对整体幼儿教育期望的一个关键人口因素。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
